OREGON YOUTH DIES HERE OF PNEUMONIA

Gerald Crisler, 17-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. Earl Crisler of Pendelton, Ore., died Sunday night at the Wyoming General hospital of influenza and pneumonia, following a brief illness.
Young Crisler was driving with his mother and two younger brothers, Kenneth and Allen, ages 12 and 7, from La Cyne, Kansas, where they had been to visit Mrs. Crisler’s relatives. The youth was feeling ill when they arrived in Rock Springs Wednesday night, so they stopped at a tourist camp here, and called the Chamber of Commerce for assistance. The Chamber of Commerce notified the Salvation Army who investigated, and then called a doctor. Medical care was administered to Gerald, but since his condition did not improve, he was taken to the hospital about 4 p.m. Sunday.
Gerald was born February 18, 1923, in Lawrence, Kans. He is survived by his parents, Earl and Nora Crisler, four brothers and two sisters, all of Pendleton, Ore. The family has lived in Pendleton for about four years.
The body was shipped to Pendleton Monday night by the Wildermuth mortuary.
Captain C. Nicolet, in charge of the local Salvation Army, accompanied the family back to Pendleton last night.
