DROWNS IN PUDDING RIVER Reuben Merterud, 20 years old, o f Lents, lost his life yesterday in the swimming hole at the Pudding river camp grounds near Aurora, and al though his body was quickly recov ered, attempts to revive the young man were unavailing. Young Merterud went to the camp grounds fo r an outing yesterday with friends from Canby. The party was enjoying a swim when the young man was seen to be beyond his depth. .He could not swim and a companion sought to bring him to shore. The friend found himself unable to effect a rescue and struflk out fo r shore. Merterud sank, without again coming to the surface. It was thought he succumbed to heart disease, as no water was in his lungs when resusci tation efforts were applied. There were 150 persons at the camp ground when the drowning occurred. The body was taken in charge by the coroner o f Clackamas county,who took it to Oregon City. The father o f the youth was said to be proprietor o f a butcher shop at Lents.
