CROWD SHRIEKS AS BOY IS
DRAGGED ON TRACK
GODERICH, August 3.—Perched
on top of a moving horse van with
! his feet dangling over its edge, Le
roy Taylor, 11-year-old boy, eaught
his head on the starting wire at the
holiday race meet Monday,
As the van passed under the wire
the boy was precipitated into a
meshwork of steel hoops used to
drag the track after each heat.
The accident happened in full
view of 3,000 fans and shrieks rent
the air as the boy’s body was ter
ribly lacerated by the hoops before
he was freed..
The driver of the truck which
pulled the van, to the rear of which
the road-drag was attached, was ob
livious to what was going on and
failed to stop.
When the boy picked himself up
and staggered off the track with
the aid of police officers who jump
ed to his rescue, the. big crowd
cheered his gameness.
At the doctor’s office it was stated
there were over a score of lacera
tions on his body, many of them
bleeding, but no bones were broken.
The hoops used to drag the race
track are discarded heavy gauge wa
gon wheel ripis.
