ELMER HARTZLER LOSES HIS LIFE THROUGH DROWNING IN PUERTO RICO

Wichita, Kansas. — Mr. and Mrs. A. P. Hartzler, grief-stricken parents of Elmer Hartzler who was serving with a CPS unit in Puerto Rico, were informed through the Mennonite Central Committee of the death of their son, who lost his life through drowning on September 12.

Elmer had formerly prepared for service in China, but went to Puerto Rico when the China project failed to materialize.

Details of the tragedy were not immediately available to the parents here, nor to the Mennonite Central Committee headquarters at Akron, Pa.
