Death is always an occasion of sorrow when it takes from us a young person of promise. None can predict the contribution he would have made to community life but there is a certainty that he was endowed with native ability that warranted the prediction that he would have had a successful career. ln his death by drowning on July 2, 1941, our class suffered a loss still deeply felt. The remembrance of him will become a lasting memorial. Twenty-eight
