The frozen body of Louis Jackson, 68, Evansville, was found huddled in a municipal swimming pool entry way this morning at Evansville by a little girl walking to school in near-zerc weather. A coroner's report blamed death on exposure. Jackson was wearing no topcoat. Jackson was the second elderly man to die of exposure at Evansville and the foMrth in the state since the cold wave arrived last Saturday. Two other men died of heart seizures after helping free stalled automobiles from snowdrifts, and two deaths were blamed on fires from overheated furnaces.
