OBITUARY ~ BYRON DOYLE REED
Thursday during the noon hour while the boys were playing football Doyle Reed was seriously injured. At the time it didn't seem as though he was hurt badly but it proved fatal. He was pushed over and a larger boy stepped on him injuring his head. He went home and seemed to be feeling better but toward evening he became worse and about 10:30 became unconscious. Dr. Roe Reed, his mother Mrs. Hazel Reed and uncle Coach W. B. Rood started shortly with him for the hospital in St. Joseph, but Doyle passed away while enroute there.
He was a member of the 6th grade and was loved by all who knew him. Doyle was a nephew of .W. B. Rood, coach of the Clearfield high school. The sympathy of the community goes out to the bereaved family.
