TWO RIVERS STUDIO HEAD IS DROWNED

Two Rivers - Plunged into the East Twin River when his car apparently missed a curve at the end of Harbor St. in Two Rivers, Paul J. Braun, 66, head of the Braun Photo Studios of that city, was drowned Friday noon. The car and Braun's body were recovered about 40 minutes later by Coast Guardsmen. The accident occurred near the U.S. Coast Guard Station in Two Rivers.

Zeno Job, a resident of Two Rivers, was looking out of the upstairs window of his home when the accident happened and said the car was not traveling at too rapid a speed. He said the car seemed to stop momentarily and then plunged into the river.

The automobile was found nose down in about 15 feet of water with Braun still at the wheel. The veteran photographer may have suffered a heart attack just before the car went into the river, according to the Manitowoc County coroner, Theodore Teitgen. Braun's dog was in the car at the time and also was drowned.

The victim had been in the photography business for the past 45 years. He started in his father's studio at Two Rivers and after some time in Milwaukee, where he was employed by several leading studios, he returned to Manitowoc for a number of years and then back to Two Rivers. Coroner Teitgen said no inquest will be held.
