 Hey guys, welcome to Percussion in the News. Today we're talking about a news article from 1957 in La Crosse, Wisconsin. So in 1957, and this made the news in the local newspaper, so it was pretty big news, I guess at that time, or at least worth noting, so the headline says, drumstick removed from boys hand, which that'll make you read on. A snare drumstick became embedded in a boy's hand as the boy was playing with the stick Friday morning. James Johnson, 17 of 2010 Wood Street, I love how they put the people's addresses in a lot of these articles. It's like, boy, you don't see that today. A senior at Logan High School was bouncing the stick on the band room floor before classes. As the stick apparently bounced upright, James grabbed for it and the stick penetrated about an inch into the flesh of his right hand. James was taken to St. Francis Hospital in a police ambulance. The boy's physician cut the hole wider in order to remove the embedded stick. So I think we've all done that where you bounce the stick and it spins and it's fun. But I guess James Johnson just did it so aggressively that it shot up and punctured into his hand and had to be removed. So I guess kind of a slow news week, who knows, but it's just really cool to see this in the newspaper from 1957. I hope James Johnson was okay from his wound and didn't have to be, you know, away from the drums for too long. But yeah. Anyway, I thought that was cool and you guys would enjoy it.
