River Victim To Be Buried Today

Pawhuska, June 24 - (Special) - Funeral services will be held here Friday 
for Johnny Walker, 22 year old Pawhuska youth, drowned while seeking relief 
from the heat in the Caney river about 35 miles north of here.

Walker and three companions, all working in the harvest fields, went 
swimming shortly after eating. Walker apparently suffered cramps and went 
down without an outcry. His companions said they did not miss him until 
they started dressing. The body was recovered four hours later.
