Two men, nationally known in
their respective lines of endeavor
and know In this city and valley,
passed yesterday.
One was Frank McKluney (Kin)
Hubbard of Indianapolis, lnd cre
ator of the quaint and lovable "Abe
Martin" of humorous fame, and the
other was Kenueth 11. Day, vice
president of Sgobel & Day, fruit
ditsrlbutors of New York City, lo
cally represented by C. C. Lem
mon. Hubbard wafc a personal friend
of Ed M. White of this city, and
the local resident was one of his
most ardent admirers. White knew
Hubbard before he rose to fame,
and saw the start of his cartoons
and philosophy when both were res
idents of Indianapolis. White was
manager of a restaurant and mem
ber of a symphony orchestra in In
dianapolis when Hubbard was a re
porter on the Indianapolis Star.
They met daily and the friendship
formed t'len survived the years. ,
Inspired Quips
Many of Hubbard's Quips and
jests about the trombone were in
spired by White, and the sudden
passing of an old friend was a se
vere blow to the local man.
Kenneth H, Day was well known
among fruit growers and shippers
of thin city and valley as his firm
was among the first to establish
plunlH here. He was an annual
visitor and a member of the New
York committee of the local ship
pers and growers.
He was a steadfast friend of the
fruit Industry of this section and
advised often in decisions affect
ing local conditions in the eastern
marts. On his visits here he inva
riably addressed the traffic asso
ciation. According to word received by
Mr. - Lemmon, the organization
started by Horace Day,- father of
Kenneth, 62 years ago, was left in
excellent condition and the entire
personnel will continue to carry on
the Sgobel & Day service and poli
cies. ' ... ' ....
