RIVER CLAIMS TWO AT CLARKS MILLS
Two Rivers Boys Near Death


While playing on the thin ice of the East Twin river at Two Rivers shortly after three o'clock Saturday afternoon, two boys, Otto Schmiling Jr., 17, 603 East street, and Leroy Vondruska, 15, 2218 Jackson street had a close call from drowning when they broke through. Their cries brought two men to the scene who were able to reach out poles to the boys. Vondruska did not break completely through the ice and was easily rescued but Schmiling broke the ice and was rescued with difficulty.

The boys were removed to their homes and suffered no ill effects of their plung. The two youths had wandered out on the ice of the river to play and did not realize that it was not heavy enough to hold their weight. Fish boats coming up the East River had weakened the ice at the spot where the two youths were at play.
