ROBERT SHERMAN McCARTER

In the fifty eight years of its existence the CRIMSON has known few more valuable men than Robert Sherman McCarter. Throughout the difficult early years he lent his advice and his services with tact and enthusiasm. And when ten years ago he retired he had the satisfaction of knowing that it was largely through his influence and resourcefulness that the paper had become the accepted undergraduate daily.

The biography of Mr. McCarter becomes inevitably a history of the establishment of the CRIMSON. It is, therefore, with sincere regret that the CRIMSON writes of his death. It has lost one of its most loyal men.
