Youth receives medal for bravery in SD incident
Gregory Delzer, a South Dakota high school senior, was named a Young American Medal for Bravery recipient after rescuing two girls from a speeding car on Oct. 12. Delzer, 17, suffered two broken legs and head injuries in the incident. Separately, a poll by SANE and the Center for Defense Information found most Americans favor a halt to nuclear tests if the Soviets do likewise, while Amtrak narrowly avoided derailment in Elwood, Illinois, when youths tampered with a control box and caused a track switch.
