Byham, 21, of Meadville died -at 7:35 a.m.

yesterday in Spencer Hospital there from a fractured skull suffered in a 40- foot fall from a ladder propped against a television antenna he was repairing on Tuesday. He was the oldest son of Mr. and Mrs. Wayne C. Byham of Rushford, N.

formerly of Guys Mills. He was' a frequent visitor to Guys Mills where his grandparents, Mr. and Mrs. Charles Byham, and other relatives also live, or lived. Dr.

Daniel Maloney of Meadville, Crawford County coroner, ruled the death accidental. The young man struck his head on a concrete walk after first falling from about half way up. the tall antenna onto the root, then off the roof to the pavement below at a house at 953 G.St., in Meadville's Hillcrest section. He was taken to Spencer Hospital, where he was admitted in critical condition. Mr.

Byham, a part-time employe of Bob's Home Radio Sales and Service in Meadville, and Donald Hopf, who had been working with him, had gone to the Elton Maloney home to repack the antenna motor with grease and put it in working condition. Co-Worker Tried To Help Mr. Hopf heard Mr. Byham yell and climbed the ladder to help him, but the young man fell before Mr. Hopf could reach him.

Technicians from Bob's Home Radio Sales and Service checked the antenna system on which Mr. Byham had been working and found a short circuit in a condenser in the TV set. It is thought this short caused 110 volts of electricity to be. fed into the antenna' and that Mr. Byham was shocked in reaching out to repair it.

Both the TV set and rotor switches had been turned off before the men started to repair the antenna. It is theorized that, in trying to pull his hands free, Mr. Byham apparently lost his balance and fell. St. witnessed the accident.
