20-FOOT FALL KILLS WORKER


Sylvester Liszewski Dies After Plunge Off Balcony
After a fall of 20 feet to a concrete floor in the power plant of Drewrys Limited, U.S.A. at 1408 Elwood avenue, Sylvester J. Liszewski, aged 38, rural route No. 3, box 33, died in Epworth hospital at 8:10 p.m. Friday.   Police who investigated said Liszewski fell from a balcony where a time clock is located. Previous to the accident, they said, he evidently had been sitting on a rail waiting to report for work. He was found by police lying in front of a large clock near the power plant pumps. A basal skull fracture caused his death, it was stated.   Mr. Liszewski was born in South Bend May 14, 1904, and was married Aug. 7. 1923, in St. Stanislaus Kostka Roman Catholic church, Terre Coupe, this county, to Miss Sophine Golubska, who survives. Also surviving are his mother, Mrs. Theophial Kusk; two children, Theodore Robert Liszewski and Miss Helen Liszewska, at home; two brothers, Walter and Ernest Liszewski, and a step-brother, Edward Kush, all of South Bend. Friends may call st St. Joseph funeral home. The funeral will be held at 9 a.m. Tuesday in Holy Cross Roman Catholic church with Rev. Philip V. Beaghan, C.S.C., pastor, officiating. Burial will be in St. Joseph’s Polish cemetery.
