DUBIEL AND GILES RESCUE DROWNING MAN IN CHARLES

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Two Harvardmen, Emile Dubiel '37, and Jay C. Giles figured in the rescue of 38-year-old William White from drowning on Saturday when White, a suspended fireman, was found struggling in the water of Charles River near the Western Avenue bridge.

The two students were driving over the bridge when they noticed a hat and tie lying on the railing.
