J-C2671 ffnderson When the notice of Jack Anderson's death on January 16, 1938, apt peered in the Canton Repository, there was assuredly, more than on. among his boy friends who thought, 'Jack was a great pal.' Had thi been the only epitaph written for Jack,no words could have express better the feeling which everyone had for him. The members of the junior class, the boys on the football team, thg fellows in the glee club, all who were associated with Jack, knef him as a great pal. There were small grade school boys, too, wh felt an almost hero-adoration for the tall, smiling boy who clappe one of them on the shoulder in a careless, man-to-man fashion, o pulled another's cap down over his eyes with a teasing word or tw For Jack's personality placed no class or social labels on those h' knew, drew no lines between rich or poor,sam no differences betwee age and youth: Jack was just a great pal to everyone. Fortunately, his life was a happy one, because of his own cheerfu disposition, and a full one because of his many activities. He had also, a carefree confidence in the future that seemed to make joy and cares alike rest lightly in his mind. During his illness, h wrote to one of his teachers that he would be'back'm:sehool in tim to take part in his class play, for even as he lay on his hospita bed during the few weeks before his death, his happy-go-lucky spiri was never entirely subdued by physical pain and mental gloom. His funeral was held in New Philadelphia, Ohio, and his pallbearer were, as Jack would have earnestly des1red,members of the Hi-Y Clul to which he belonged.
