Norfolk Virginian Pilot Monday July 12, 1937
Two Local Boys Drown 

Two youths, one of Norfolk and the other of South Norfolk, drowned yesterday 
in Chesapeake Bay, seeking relief from the heat in swimming parties with 
friends.
Charles William Schultz, Jr., aged 17, of 1201 Hawthorne avenue, South 
Norfolk, drowned at Chesapeake Beach about 3 o'clock yesterday afternoon.  
H.R. Morrison, Jr., who with Irvin Floyd, both of South Norfolk, recovered 
the body, said that bathers had mistaken young Schultz' distress, apparently 
caused by cramps, for frolicking in the water.
Funeral services for young Schultz will be held tomorrow at 4 o'clock at the 
Graham Funeral Home in South Norfolk with the Rev. O.D. Poythress, pastor of 
the South Norfolk Christian Church, officiating.
Surviving are his father, Charles William Schultz; his mother, Mrs. Sarah 
Ada Myers Schultz, and two sisters, Doris Schultz and Mrs. J.F. Bunch, all 
of South Norfolk.  The deceased youth was a member of South Norfolk 
Christian Church.
