Tn 1921 the loss of meat on account of bruises averaged one-tenth of a pound each hog. This flgure was based on re- turns from 68 markets. However, in 1922 we extended the campaign to cover «68 markets and the esti- mated loss per hog was figured at a quarter pound. It is believed that the increased loss occured in the 15 new markets where the campaign to reduce losses had not been in full swing." The report concludes: ‘Conditions are again normal and such statistics as have been go far tabulated show a marked improvement for 1923 over 1922, corps.,, a life member of the United States Volunteer life saving corps and a member of the U, S. Surf life sav- ing corps. 4 Fifteen rescues from drowning are credited to Mr. Tancred and he has received’ a number of letters from people who were grateful for saving their lives. His first rescue occurred | when he was employed as a life guard at a private beach along the coast of New Jersey. Although this positioh did not appeal to him and he only stayed two weeks, in that time he brought back to shore eight persons! who were on the verge of drowning. | The injured were treated hy Dr. Donald W. Stewart, of Broadbrook, and were later removed to Mercy hos- pital in Springfield. According to witnesses of the acei- dent, the car, driven by Weissburg, was going at a high rate of speed, headed for Springfield. Ahead of this car was another, driven by Edward 1. Drowie, of Springfiald, also going toward that city. The Weissburg car was attempting to pass the Drowie car and was abreast of it when a truck, headed toward Hartford, ap- peared, Welssburg tried to cut in ahead of the Drowie car but did not | calculate correctly. His rear fender caught the front fender of the other car and the Weissburg car was up- set, turning over three times in a field beside the road and spllling its occu- | pants. Drowie stopped his car and helped WILLIAM L. TANCRED — him a fancy salary to act as “second man,” doing the swimming and div- ing stunts for stars in the movies.
