George Zakel
Boy Smothers To Death Under Tons of Gravel
Pierpont, Ohio, Today (AP) Eight year old George Zakel, Jr., of Cleveland Heights, Ohio, was smothered to death under tons of gravel in a pit on the Andy Brewer farm, just off Route 7, near here.  The boy was playing nearby yesterday while his brother, James 16, and their father were loading a truck with gravel.  A pile of the gravel collapsed, striking the father and older brother and partially burying the truck.  They did not know until a half hour later, when a tractor hauled the truck from under the gravel, that George had been buried in the slide. An hour's resuscitation work failed to revive him. The Zakels had been vacationing here the last three weeks.
