Death citation?

The end of the article had this line [[Crawford County PA Archives Deaths.....LORZ, Fred March 17, 1954]] I think that it was intended to be a citation, but I'm not sure what should have been done, so I removed it.Noliver (talk) 19:29, 2 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Birth and death date

http://ballkoenig.wordpress.com/2009/02/04/jahrestage-am-04-februar-2009/ gives July 18 1880 - February 4 1914; http://www.sports-reference.com/olympics/athletes/lo/fred-lorz-1.html gives June 1884 - February 4, 1914. In any case this photo from 1906 shows a young man, so it is highly improbable that he was born in 1860. --GirasoleDE (talk) 21:19, 24 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
