A of Mr. and Mrs. LaMar Mason By Duane Hunsaker NUMBER 26 Board Studies Teacher Retirement Five year old Bruce Archibald is alive and well today because of the united efforts of a number of people Sunday afternoon. He is the son of Melbourne and Joann Archibald. Bruce, and his friend Richard Mason, seven year old son were throwing rocks into the Malad River, watching the splash they made, when a rock thrown by Richard hit Bruce in the back of the head. It is thought he was knocked unconscious by the blow and fell into the river, although Richard insists that he called for help and that he tried to hold a stick out to him. Richard showed rare presence of mind, when he ran to the highway and called for help. His cries were heard by John Taylor who told his father, Harry, and the two went down the hill back of their house toward the river. Richard continued to call for help and ran to the car of Mrs. Lawrence Whitney, when she stopped on Third East street, and told her of the accident. Mrs. Whitney stopped Carter Rich of Garland as he was driving south along that road, and told him of the trouble. She then went to call the ambulance. Mr. Taylor attempted to get to the river but had difficulty getting through the underbrush, and could see (he couldn't reach the water in time. Garter ran down the road and over ti?e bridge on the highway, where he could see the boy floating downstream about a foot under the water. He immediately jumped into the cold stream and got hold of the boy before he reached the bridge. 31. 1955 Another first place winner, Lee Mason, son of Mr. and Mrs. Glenn Mason, took top honors conin rural electrification test which netted him a $100 scholarship to the U.S.A.C.
