A couple of Walker township young men who took too many doses of ilknockout drops”, at a certain booze joint last Sunday are now on the road to recovery. It is reported that they drank sixteen highballs in less than three-quar-ters of an hour with the result that two doctors worked with them all night to save their lives, and at times the chances were ninety-nine to one against their recovery.
