Pulmotor Unfamiliar with the operation of a special type of gps cock and failure to realize that the mechanism had become s0 worn as to turn from closed to open with little effort and almost without being realized, Blanche Waters, aged 14, was par- tially asphyxiated and rendered des- perately ill by escaping illuminating gas in a -tengment at 87 Elm street Timely discovery of the Dby dthers in the apartment and. tfi r of the victim to the open air pending the arrival of expert atten- tion is ¢redited with ‘having eaved the life of the patient. An emergency call to - police headquarters about 2:45 ‘oclock this morning resulted in the ambulance being rushed to the scene in chargeof Attendant Gustav Hellberg and notification being given | Fire Chief Robert M. Dame: With his chauffeur, Edward J. Woods, the latter 'made a speedy response to the scene, the department's pulmotor with - extra o: n containers ‘being carried. Quick.- and -eficient work under the supervision of Chief Dame sufficed to bring. about . partial re- covery of the ° patient. Dr. John Purney took charge.: ‘later, adminis- tered treatment and, late this after- noon, reported the girl will recover with practically no ill effects of her experience. The apartments at the Elm street ;. address were recently vacated and moved into yesterday. 'Tired out by the labors of moving, raembers of the tamily retired early. Miss Waters, daughter of a close friend and neigh- bor of the new tenants, was to occupy a bed for the night because her mother had company. She alded in preliminary; settling of furniture and was weary when she retired. To relatives, she admitted that she sup- poséd the gas cock had begn turned off. 1t had been turn past the closed mark, aliowing a.small escape of the deadly gds. The amdunt was not sufficient to cause immediute and complete asphyxiation. But for this fact it is believed she ' would have been. beyond humap aid before dis- covery.
