Ralph Mohr, 44, Tumbles 12 Feet At St. Mary's High School Project

A 44-year-old Kitchener man was killed last night in a fall, the third K-W area man to die in such a manner in two weeks.

Mr. Mohr was the second member of the Mohr family to die violently. A brother, Ross Mohr, drowned at Port Rowan seven years ago. Mr. Mohr, an employee of Oscar Wiles and Sons, Ltd., was helping Arthur and Donald Wiles, sons of the company owner, to spread a tarpaulin over recently finished work because of rain. "No one apparently saw him tumble but I saw him hit the cement floor head-first" Arthur Wiles said. "An ambulance crewman said he detected a faint pulse but he must have died a few moments later," he added. It was Mr. Mohr's job to check on cement laid each day and to cover newly laid areas in case of rain. He had been an employee of the company for four years. A bachelor, he lived at 260 King St. East.

TAKEN TO HOSPITAL

His body was taken to K-W Hospital, where a postmortem was conducted today. Surviving are five brothers, Robert of Stratford.
