FOOTBALLER RECOVERS FROM DISLOCATED NECK
DISCHARGED FROM HOSPITAL Press Association CHRISTCHURCH, To-day. IN a football match early this season James Turpin, of the Linwood Club, dislocated his spine and was for some time very seriously ill. Several remarkable operations were performed in order to reduce the dislocation and, to the gratification of all concerned, success was achieved on Saturday, when Turpin was allowed to leave the hospital. He is still wearing artificial supports for his head and will remain under special care for some time, but there is good ground to believe that his complete restoration to normal health is not far distant. His case has already attracted notice in medical journals in other countries.
