Hampton Jacobs, recently a Columbia hospital patient because of a leg injury received when he was struck by an automobile Friday at the Dentsville school, is recuperating at his home. He is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Horace T. Jacobs (Clara Mae Jacobs) of Pontiac and Columbia.

Law officers said young Jacobs was saved from more serious injuries by Clint Maxie, who pulled the boy out of the car’s path so that only his leg was injured. The boys were playing football at the time of the accident.
