Floyd A. Nagler, 1914 The death of Floyd A. Nagler in Iowa City, Iowa, on November 10, will recall to many alumni a familiar figure in the engineering division from 1910 to 1914. Mr. Nagler came to the College from Jackson after spending his boyhood days in several Michigan cities, where his father, the Rev. August Nagler, served as a Methodist minister. Following his graduation in 1914 Nagler had taken his M. S. and Ph. D, degrees at the University of Michigan, served the U. S. engineering depart­ HOTEL ment as a second lieutenant during the World War and since 1920 held several posts on the staff of the Uni­ ILTM II LEIiNI versity of Iowa.
