Sentinel-Standard - Friday - May 15, 1936

Wayne Wilson, 17, one of the four victims of the M-21 automobile tragedy near 
Fowler in which four high school boys met sudden death, was buried Monday 
afternoon from the home of the parents, Mr. and Mrs. Roy Wilson south and east 
of Sheridan.

The services were conducted by Rev. John Cornelius of Lakeview, assisted by 
Rev. Robert Bennett, of Sheridan and their tributes to the memory of the Carson 
City high school student were eloquent and touching. A tribute to Wayne was 
also directed to the members of his family in personal remarks by Supt. R.A. 
Ambrose of the Carson City high school in whose classes the boy was a leader 
and an outstanding student as a member of the junior class and teams in the 
agricultural courses.

Bearers were Fred Thayer, Howard McGowen, Ross Nelson, Kenneth Stebbins, Don 
Jensen, Harold Haysmer and Lester Sitts. Floral offerings were abundant and 
included memorials from the Carson City school groups and from the business men 
the high school faculty, school board, the senior class, and from friends all 
from Pewamo where Donald Wilson, a brother, is principal of the high school.

Members of the junior class of the Carson city high school formed the honorary 
escort and were accompanied by Supt. Ambrose and Foster Woodman, teacher of 
Agriculture in the Carson City schools.
