FALLS INTO LAKE; MAN IS DROWNED Alex Eschner, 28 years old, of 4416 Oakdale Blvd., Chicago, was drowned in Pistakee lake near Eagle Point Sunday in an unusual accident which almost cost the life of Albert Thompson also of Chicago. The two young men were riding astride the bow of a launch piloted by their host, Peter Sternik, of 2744 N<j. McVickers avenue, Chicago. Backwash from another boat caused Sternik's craft to lunge suddenly and Eschner was thrown into the water. As he fell he grasped Thompson, pulling him in also. Thompson's trouser cuff caught on a hook in the side of the boat, and with Eschner still clinging to him he was dragged under water for a hundred yards before Sternik could stop. Eschner relaxed his grip and sank, but Sternik pulled the unconscious Thompson into the boat. He was taken ashore and revived. The body of Eschner was recovered and taken to Fox Lake. s- ;; 80Q ENJOY EVENING ?
