Makino unexnected cood progress
at Nesbitt Hospital from extensive
burns suffered at his home on Me-
morial Day. is Garv McCoog. 10,
son of Mr. and Mrs. James McCoog,
Trucksville.
Alsop recovering and expected
home soon is Walter Parsons, 8,
also of Trucksville.
The two boys were watching
Gary’s older brothers. Mike and
Danny light a charcoal fire for a
family barbecue in the McCooo vard
when a second spraying of the fluid
caused an instantaneous explosion,
flames shooting out toward the
younger boys and engulfing Gary.
Prompt action by his brothers
who are boy scouts, is credited with
eliminating greater iniury. The boys
grabbed the injured youngsters,
rolling them on the ground and
smothering their flaming clothing.
Mr. McCoog and Mr. Parsons
immediately rushed the boys to Nes-
bitt Hospital, where Gary was at
the time of admittance considered
to be in serious condition, suffering
second and third degree burns of
the back, chest and right arm.
Young Parsons received burns of
the left arm.
Mrs. McCoog believes that the
prayers of their many friends have
really wrought a miracle and most
heartily endorses boy scout train-
ing for every young fellow. Mr.
McCoog is assistant scoutmaster of
~ Boy Scout Troop 232, Shavertown.
