Kiel Woodenware Employe Is Killed In Mishap Tuesday.

KIEL - William Stauber, 56, of Route 2, Kiel, a truck driver for the Kiel Woodenware Co., was killed almost instantly in an accident at the plant here early Tuesday afternoon. According to the report of Calumet County Coroner Dr. John Knauf, Stauber, who had been employed by the local firm for 27 years was preparing to remove a load of cheese boxes from his truck onto a loading platform when the fatal accident happened.

He had backed his truck up to the platform and gone into the plant for a power lift tractor. As he was driving the lift up onto the rear apron of his truck, the vehicle moved ahead, tipping the lift over backward and pinning Stauber between it and the concrete loading platform. Dr. Knauf reported Stauber died almost instantly of a skull fracture. He said no inquest will be necessary.

Mr. Stauber was born July 27, 1897, in the Town of Eaton (Manitowoc County), a son of the late Ignatz and Theresa Glasser Stauber. He received his early education at St. Gregory Catholic School, St. Nazianz. He married the former Hilda Hartman of Schleswig on Sept. 25, 1923.

They lived on a farm until 1926 when they moved to Kiel, making their home there ever since. He was a member of the St. Nazianz branch, Catholic Order of Foresters, and the Kiel Redmen Lodge.

Survivors include the wife; three sisters, Mrs. Louis Schweitzer of Kiel, Mrs. Joseph Kautzer of St. Nazianz and Mrs. Ernst Voss of the Town of Schleswig; and one brother, John, of St. Nazianz.

Services will be held at 9:30 a.m. Friday at the Meiselwitz Funeral Home, Kiel, with the Rev. F.X. Kheil, pastor of the Ss. Peter and Paul Catholic Church, officiating. Burial will be in the church cemetery. Sheboygan Press, Wed. Oct. 7, 1953, p. 1, c. 6
