He served 4 years, 1 month, and
19 days overseas. He left for Pan

land, and Central Europe.
He was twice wounded In ac
tion: on February 14, 1945, and

When 27 Nazis marched out with

out until help finally arrived. He
himself received an abdominal
wound for which he was award
ed the Cluster to the Purple
Heart medal he had received
previously for a shrapnel wound

nig husband and leaves a host of
friends to mourn his loss.

Emerson will move the presi
dent’s office from Macon to Spo
kane, although Pullman will con
tinue to -be the president’s club.

vention and members of the
