Dear Heloise and Readers Help Household Tricks
A column features practical tips from readers: using plastic salad tongs to lift spaghetti, climbing beans as carport shade, rolling postcards with typing paper, attaching can openers to ribbons, knitting with toothpicks, and donating clothes to the needy. The Almanac notes May 16 1971 and historical anniversaries. The item closes with a light incident about a boy stuck on an amusement park engine.
A Tight Squeeze Freeing Boy From Funnel
Firemen spent over an hour rescuing seven year old Stephen Jackson from the funnel of an old structure in England. The incident required six firefighters to extract him safely.
