Services held for Thomas, chemist, former trustee Charles Allen Thomas, chemist and inventor, corporate and civic leader and a prominent member of the WU com- munity for many years, died Monday, March 29, at his farm near Albany, Ga. Thomas, 82, had been ill for some time. Raised on a small farm in Scott County, Ky., Thomas was associated with Co. in St. Louis for 34 years, including 24 years as a member of the board — as its president from 1951 to I960 and as chairman during I960-1965. He retired from the board in February 1970. A distinguished chemist who, during World War II, coordinated efforts to purify the element for the atomic bomb, Thomas devoted many of his later years to service to WU. First named a member of its board of trustees in 1954, he was chairman of the board from 1966 to 1977, and was named a life member in 1974. Upon his retire- ment as chairman, he was given the William Greenleaf Eliot Award. Thomas received an honorary doctor of science degree from WU in 1947.
