Kyle Kliewer, 11-month-old son of Mr. And Mrs. Orville Kliewer, swallowed a dime Monday. After examination it was thought the coin had passed on into the stomach. It was not until Thursday, when Mrs. Kliewer felt all was not right with the youngster, that physicians found through fluroscopy that the coin was still lodged in the esophagus. An esophagotomy was performed and the coin removed. The baby returned home Sunday from the hospital and is completely recovered.
