Stomach Reducers Recalled: The Consumer Product Safety Commission said Harrison-Hoge Industries Inc. recalled 700,000 New Gym Stomach Eliminators after the company and agency learned of 62 instances in which consumers using the exercisers suffered “serious facial or body injury” after a spring or clip broke. The devices, sold from 1985 through 1989, are composed of three 12-inch metal springs attached to a plastic handlebar and foot bar. The handlebar, foot bar and foot strap are marked “Made in Italy” or “Brevattato.” Consumers may call 1-800-244-7808 for a refund or credit.
