  Description: KAUKAUNA NEWS BABYS FINGERS CAUGHT IN GEAR, MIGHT LOSE HAND Baker's Daughter Terribly Injured While Mother Answers Telephone Kaukauna - Childish curicsity may result in the loss of the entire right hand of Valoise Kalupa, 2-year-old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. E. A. Kalupa. 100 East Seventh st. The child's. hand and fingers were badly mangled about 2:30 Monday afternoon when she put her fingers into a small opening in the guard casing of gear wheels which operate the dough mixer In the Kalupa bakery- The girl was rushed to St. Elizabeth Hospital where it was found necessary to amputate the fore finger and middle finger and the tips of her ring and little fingers. Doctors patched up the back of her hand in an attempt to save it and if signs of healing develop flesh from another part of the child's body will be grafted on. The wrist also was broken. The child put her hand into the gears while her mother was answering the telephone, leaving the baby alone in the room. Before Mrs. Kalupa could pull the switch to stop the machine, the hand had been horribly mangled. The big gear which engages with the smaller gear on the main shaft from motor was guarded with a heavy casing of iron, leaving only a narrow opening not more than 14 inches wide and perhaps slightly longer. When the child's fingers were caught in the mesh of the gears, however, her whole hand was drawn in. It was necessary to remove the casing and loosen the gears before the hand could be taken away.
