CRASH VICTIM IS FATALLY HURT SUNDAY
Joseph Zizka, of Two Creeks Near Death at Hospital

ORDER INQUEST INTO DEATH OF ACCIDENT VICTIM
Joseph Zizka Dies at Hospital Without Regaining Consciousness
Injuries suffered in the accident on Highway 1? north of Two Rivers
Sunday night resulted in the death of Joseph Zizka at the Holy Family hospital, death coming without him regaining consciousnes. Zizka, a Two Creeks farmer, suffered a broken jaw, a fractured skull and severe injuries to chest and arms, the contusions being so serious all of the flesh about the upper portion of the body turned black and blue. He was rushed to the hospital here where everything possible was done for him but the end came shortly after 6 o'clock last night.
Coroner W.G. Kemper called an inquest into the death and a jury was
impannelled this morning viewing the body at 11 o'clock at the hospital.
No date for the hearing has been set but it is expected the jury will be called again late this week. Members of the jury are Aubrey Egan, William Glander, Lawrence Fuka, John Schubert, Elmer Haupt, and De. Benj??.
Zizka so far as known has no relatives in this country and was employed by Frank Klinder. Nothing is known of the man who has worked in this country for a number of years. His body was taken charge of by Frazier and Shimek and an effort is being made to learn something of his relatives. If no word is received the county will bury him as he is without means.
