SENIOR IS KILLED
[N FALL FROM TOWER
Remains Taken to Former Home at
Granger; Accompanied by Room-
mate and Home Town Boys.
The body of John F. 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.
