ED YEAGLEY

  Word has been received here that Ed Yeagley, first superintendent of the 
Meyersdale shirt factory, under a Phillips-Jones ownership, died at his home in 
Meridian, Miss., last week.  Particulars have not been received.  He was a 
genial, competent and popular executive, and was an esteemed member of the 
Meyersdale Rotary Club, from March 7, 1929, until he moved to Meridan, Miss., to 
take charge of a Phillips-Jones shirt factory there about 1934.  A few years 
later he returned to Meyersdale to resume his position and Rotary membership 
here, but about Feb. 1, 1940, went back to Mississippi.
