Our character was born on Valentine's Day, 1918, on a farm near Iredell,
Bosque County, Texas. For the first sixteen years he was an ardent cultivator
of pigs, chickens, horses and cattle. Upon graduating from the business school
of John Tarleton College at Stephenville, Texas, he became secretary librarian
and assistant teacher of Agriculture there. Later he was appointed bursar of the
school and manager of the boys' dormitory. In Jan. of 1941 he accepted a
position at Kelly Field and in 1942 was selected to become principal clerk of
the Hondo Sub-Depot Supply. His hobby during college days was amateur radio and
the delivering of messages to parents from homesick freshmen. It's small wonder
that he thinks his hobby so fascinating. Over an amateur mike in 1938 he made
his first date with a blond co-ed. In 1942 he married the co-ed. Arthur's
present hobbies are cooking and "assigning people to the graveyard shift". His
pleasantness, initiative and
conscientiousness have made him an able president for the Welfare Association.
