Little Boy Drowns In Big Sioux Pit Near Town

Connie Trautt twelve, with father James Trautt and cousins, drowned while swimming at the Big Sioux gravel pit a mile from town. Despite efforts by divers, fish-hooks, and rescue teams, his body was recovered after about two and a half hours in water nearly eighteen feet deep. Trautt had warned the boys about the sharp drop, but none were strong swimmers. The incident followed a church picnic and raised questions about lifeguards at the site.
