Kubala, 21, senior student of the College who was killed by a fall from the 130 foot water tower of the College plant sometime Thursday night was taken to Granger by his father yesterday afternoon for burial. Accompanying the body as an escort of honor was his former roommate A. G. Pfaff of Gainesville, and several of his former classmates and students from his home town. The broken body of the young man was found yesterday morning about 7:30 under the water tower in the rear of the Mechanical Engineering Shops building by a student return- ing to his dormitory after breakfast. After investigation it was found that he had been last seen in the dormi- tory as late as 11 o’clock Thursday ~ight, and the condition of the body indicated that he had been dead since about that time. Following an in- quest Colonel C. C. Todd, command- ant of the College, announced that death had resulted from a fall from the platform of the tower about 130 feet from the ground. He supposed that Kubala had climbed the tower to examine the wireless radials, one end of which is attached to the focwer. This supposition was made from the fact that he was an electrical engin- eering student and a cadet in the sig- nal corps unit, and was taking work n radio communication. Kubala was last seen by his recom- mate, Pfaff, about 8:30 when he leit the room with two other students. He was seen two or three times later by other students up until 11 o’clock but Zid not return to his room. It was his fifth year at the College and he would have graduated in June. He held the rank of captain in the cadet corps and the assignment of ad ‘'utant in the signal corps unit.
