Duane L. Key. 8, died as doctors tried to remove 13 pieces of shrapnel from his abdoren. The three other youths were being kept alive with blood transfusions but doctors said they feared one of them might not live. Investigators said Donald Hickok held a nail against the fuse cap and pounded it with a wrench while Duane held the shell. The other two boys were watching the experiment.
