ANOTHER FOOTBALL VICTIM.
Paul Frenzel, 1(1 years old, son of O. N. Frenzel, president of the Merchahts’ National Bank of Indianapolis, died Wednesday morning from injuries received some weeks ago in the scrimmage practice of the Training School squad. Frenzel was kicked just below the ribs and for several minutes lost control of his limbs and could not move them. He was examined on the field by Doctor Cunningham, coach of the second team, and was thought at the time to be seriously injured. He apparently recovered from the mishap in a week and again joined the squad. Frenzel was not troubled again with the injury until last Friday, when he had gone home after school, and soon complained of a pain in his back. He rapidly lost consciousness and for the last three days preceding bis death knew nothing. He continually raved in his delirium, calling the signals of the team over and over.
