To Save GirTs Life
CSUVA, March 28.
AUGHT by a 10 ft. shark when she was fishing two miles from Lomaloma, a Lauan girl named Takape suffered terrible injuries to her right leg before her women companions could get her into their canoe.
The girl was taken to Lomaloma Hospi tal in a critical condition. A Fiiian As sistant Medical Practitioner, Seru Lomani, gave a blood transfusion and battled for two days and nights to save the girl’s life.
He succeeded, and Takape is now able to walk with crutches.
Mr. E. P. Kaad, a resident of Kanacea, says; “No praise is too high for the Cen tral Medical School and its Fijian students. In places like Lomaloma we are absolutely dependent on the AMP's, and in Seru Lomani we have one of the best.”
Following his recent marriage in Bordeaux M. Andre Ballande was expected to reach ’Noumea by air during March.
