To the Editor of the CRIMSON:

The news of the tragic death of Eugene Glover in a cancer research laboratory comes as a distinct shock to those of his classmates and contemporaries in college who knew him. The pity of it is that there were so few who really did know him. Glover was one of that considerable group in every class that "live at home". Most of his classmates probably knew him only as a name, for he received A's in all his courses and his name always appeared in the First Group of the Rank List. Those who did seek him out found him a quiet likeable fellow who had set for himself a high standard of achievement from which he would not permit himself to be diverted. It was entirely typical of such a man that he should devote himself to the greatest problem that challenges medical science. In him, Harvard loses one of the most loyal of her sons and one who gave great promise of achievement in the future. Holden Furbor '24
