SEWARD LAD, ARL0W HAGEN, DR0WNS IN
 HARTMAN LAKE
SLIPPED FROM RAFT IN DEEP WATER-UNABLE TO SWIM;
 BODY IS RECOVERED

Arlow Hagen, aged 16 years, was drowned in Hartman Lake Wed- nesday at 12:3O o'clock. He slipped from a raft into deep water, ana being a beginner in swlmmlng' sank before aid could reach him.
 The unfortunate youth was a sophomore in the Seward High school and was a son of MT. and Mrs. Nils Hagen, MT. Hagen being head of the Seward Fisheries.
 Allen Guest, who slipped from the raft, narrowly escaped with his life. but managed to make shore, some distance away.
 This is the second drowning Tn Hartman Lake within the past two years. Last summer a local boy, under 10 years of age, also met death in the lake when he slipped from raft.
 Another version of young Hagen's death is that while Arlow was pad ding about on the raft, he fell and became so badly frightened that he almost dragged Allen into the water from the raft, from which Allan was lending him a hand
 In either case, the parents and sister are grief-stricken through the loss of their splendid boy, who was so unexpectedly taken from them, and the friends and associ- ates of Arlow share their grief.
 Children on the beach of the lake were frantic when they per ceived stark tragedy was being enacted before their eyes. Never theless the alarm was given and citizens plunged into the lake in search of the body, which was not found until 10 or 15 minutes later. By that time Dr. A. D. HaverStock had arrived on the scene, and to- gether with Ebert Kunz, a former life-Saver on Seattle beaches, and Dr. Haverstock's assistant, Harold Sogn. endeavored to reSuscitate the youth. A heart stimulant was in- jected and oxygen tanks brought into use. but after hours of labor ing over the body, it was perceived that all efforts to revive him were useless; life had fled.
 Besides the mother and father Arlow is survived by his little sis ter Lynette. MT. Hagen is now in Seattle and the sad word of his boys death was wired to him.
 ArloW was well-liked by all those who came in contact with him both in work and play. He was keenly interested in athletics and was a member of the Seward high school basketball team. He also represent ed the high school in various events at local track meets and was one of the best pole-vaulters of the city. Tn all his athletic achievements Arlow always upheld the ideals of good sportsmanship in their en- tirety.
