tangled in the tough weeds and sank
before the frantic efforts Of the wit

who were in boats at the other side
of the lake could reach him.
This tragedy was the tragic finale
of the brief visit paid by the unfor-
tunate lad and his many high school
companions, who took. part in the
interscholastic field day.
Together with two other school
mates, Service engaged rowboat
and spent some time frolicking on
the placid waters. firing Of this thev

canoe. Service took the canoe. Be-
fore embarking he was warned by N.
K. Carpenter, Stanford senior in
charge of the boats, that unless he
could swim he would better remain
upon the bank The lad answered
that he could swim and left his coat
upon the shore as precaution.
