HOUEYE, MILES WILLIAM
Miles Houeye Dies In Tractor Accident Near Rouston - Miles William Houeye,
28, veteran of World War II, graduate of SLC and the father of a six week
old daughter, died Tuesday morning around 9:30 a.m. in a tractor accident
near Ruston, La.  An exact account of the accident could not be had because
of the lacking of an eye witness.  The _____ of tractors tracks after it
left the highway leads those who investigated the accident to believe that
Miles, who had been under treatment for some time, had blacked out while
returning home from a field he had been discing.  The tractor tracks show
that the machine left the highway abruptly and followed a broken zigzag
course for some sixty feet before coming to rest against a telephone pole. 
Houeye's body was beneath a rear wheel when he was found, the right side of
his body crushed.  He is survived by his wife, Floyce Bracy Houeye, one
daughter, Pamela Lynn; his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Emmett Houeye, of
Roseland; one brother, Erwin of Auburn University; and one sister, Mrs. Lea
Beth Simpson of Bastrop.  Funeral services were held from the home of A. V.
Houeye in Amite with interment in the Arcola-Roseland cemetery.  Rev.
Douglas McGuire of Ruston conducted religious services with the Thomas
Funeral Home of Hammond in charge of arrangements.
