Among other topics, Webb advised that he was the last survivor of the three “Bronxville Boys” who came to Cornell in 1950 from that village in Westchester County. They roomed together as freshmen, joined Delta Upsilon together and remained close friends through graduation and beyond. They even sat side by side in the 54 Cornellian’s group photo of their fraternity. Boyce Thompson, who died in 2009, worked for Pet Milk in St. Louis for a few years after graduation and later moved to Dallas where he formed and ran a successful food brokerage specializing in gourmet mixed nuts. Ever the comedian, his business phone number (after the area code) was 223-6887, which made the letters BAD-NUTS. Thankfully, his customers did not figure it out.

    Spring 2007 Wooldridge scholarship ‘family’ continues to grow By Shanxi Upsdell, Shawnee, Kan., junior oger Wooldridge was an only child, but the number of R brothers and sisters in his extended family grows each year. The scholarship in his name has helped his “siblings,” the Wooldridge scholars, earn journalism degrees at the University of Kansas since 1974. His parents, Norris and Helena Wooldridge, created the scholarship as a memorial after his death in 1973. Norris died at age 84 in 1999, and Helena died at age 89 on Jan. 15, 2007. Before she died, Helena spoke in a fi nal interview about Roger and the Wooldridge scholars, whose number reached 140 journalism students in 2006. “They were like an extended family,” she said. “That’s the way I felt about them.” Helena Wooldridge The scholarship has become one of the hallmarks of the Journalism School, providing fi nancial assistance, emotional support and lifetime membership in the Wooldridge family in honor of their son. Roger was born in 1952 and grew up in Kingman on the Wooldridges’ farm. Helena described him as “a real good kid” who “never was a minute’s trouble for us.” “He was a lot like me – he might butt in where he wasn’t supposed to,” she said, laughing. “But he’d do it because he thought he was helping.” In 1970, Roger enrolled at KU and began pursuing a public relations major. After interviewing for an internship in South Dakota in 1973, he started driving back to Lawrence. He was killed when his car crashed in a fi eld near Norfolk, Neb.
