The Rescuer And His System: The overcoat of Patrolman George Bluhm (left) can be used for more than winter weather, and he was prompt to realize it this morning when seconds could well have meant lives. When the William Bennett family was trapped by fire above the Modern Appliance Co., store, Bluhm whipped off his coat and with the help of a pedestrian, caught an 11-month-old baby girl dropped from the second story above. At right is the infant's mother, while brother Jimmy looks on in the center. The baby was sick from inhaling smoke and could not be photographed. ( full page of fire pictures on page 24.)
