CARL HANSON JR.
KILLED SUNDAY
Carl Hanson Jr., 17 year old Nashua High School senior, was instantly killed about 4 p.m. Sunday in a hunting accident on the Ed Pillasch farm, one and one half miles north of Charles City. He was the only child of Mr. and Mrs. Carl Hanson Sr.
Elvin Kollman, 20, of Nashua was wounded slightly in the left shoulder by one pellet of No. 2 shot from a 12-gauge shotgun shell. He was released Monday from Cedar Valley hospital in Charles City.
With Hanson and Kollman were four sons of Mr. and Mrs. Alvin Dietz, Robert, 18; Kenneth, 21; Wendell, 17, and Wayne 14.
The youths were returning to their car after a fox hunt, when a double-barreled hammerless 12-gauge shotgun, carried by one of the youths, was discharged, the blast striking Hanson and Kollman. Carl Hauser, Floyd county coroner, ruled the death accidental and reported that no inquest was necessary.
Junior was active in athletics and music activities at Nashua High School. He earned letters in baseball, football and basketball and sang in the mixed chorus and boys' glee club. He played in the basketball game Friday night when the Bulldogs defeated Manly.
His death was a severe shock to the whole community as he had earned the admiration and respect of his schoolmates and adults alike. Sports fans, who have followed the success of the Bulldogs' teams, were shocked when news of Junior's death was received.
Funeral services for Carl Hanson Jr. were held today (Wednesday) at 2 p.m. at the Methodist church. The Rev. F. L. Hanscorn of the Little Brown Church officiated and was assisted by Rev. E. C. Allen of the Methodist church.
The high school girls' small group, under the direction of Miss Louise Heisey, music instructor, sang. The members of the group were Virginia James, Darlene Wagner, Donna Davidson, Sylvia Estal; Jeannette Stocks, Betty Crooks, Verna Jakel and Jo Ann Wait. They were accompanied by Max Wagner.
The Misses Bertha Coffman, Iverne Wick, Alice Hammond and Shirley Muench were in charge of the flowers.
Pallbearers were six members of the high school basketball squad. They were Donald Kehe, Charles Jensen, Marvin Juel, Russell Nordman and Ed and Curtis Bigelow.
Burial was in Greenwood cemetery.
