CLAIRE HANSEN, STUDENT, DIES FOLLOWING ILLNESS OF WEEK

Claire Hanson died at 10:45 Saturday evening, November 8th, at the home of his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Helmer Hanson, after a week's illness which had culminated in pneumonia.

Claire was 18 years of age, and a senior in high school, where he was popular in all of its activities. Beloved by teachers and fellow students alike, the school closed its sessions at noon that all might be able to attend the funeral, which was held at the First Lutheran church this afternoon, conducted by Rev. Olaf A. Langehough.
