life preserver

Landon Knack has been a human life preserver for the Dodgers, an unsung rookie right-hander who has helped keep the rotation afloat when seas get a little rough.

Mrs. Cranston, bigger than he, in a gigantic feathered hat, her squirrel-skin cloak, and over that her life preserver, stretched to its limits.

With no parachutes, no life preservers, no rafts and no radios, the four planes guided by eight U.S.

He threw all the life preservers he could reach to other men, then pulled himself further up the sloping deck, away from the water now angrily smashing its way through windows and doors.

The measure “was simply a life preserver that was being thrown or could have been thrown to schools to stem the crisis,” he said.
