The Journal clocktower is behind him in the photo for a reason: he climbed it so that he could take panoramic views of the city from it (photography was his hobby). The article reveals much more about him, including his long career at the American Bridge Division of U.S. Steel, his deep religious faith and his opinions about what was going on in the country at that time.
In the years following the publication of the "Scrivo" profile, Mr. Wade contributed the occasional Letter to the Editor or question for the Hot Line column. The letters were always interesting and always reflected his keen interest in the subject at hand.
