Hetzhler Is Improving

Leland Hetzhler, who was so seriously injured at the engineering building on Monday, is getting along as well as could possibly be expected. Drs. Breakey and Blair operated late Monday afternoon and trephined the skull, finding a large blood clot and a hemorrhage. The man began to regain consciousness Tuesday and is now able to swallow. The outcome is impossible to predict as yet, but it is hoped that he will recover from his injury without being impaired mentally. He was a laborer employed at the engineering building and had hold of a rope on a derrick which was being let down. The rope passed over a stone in the wall, which became loosened by the friction and fell upon him. The workmen on the building made up a purse of $50 for him.
