Henry Richard Pattengill (1920-1944)

 

Henry Richard Pattengill
Entered Fourth Form

"Rich" is a member of several clubs of his own invention, notably the R.O.O.T., of which he is President. His pride and joy is a '35 Buick which he proudly calls "Hepzibah," and he burns up the streets of Lansing with this gas buggy. Pat likes to tinker with electrical devices, and 'tis small wonder that he wants to be an electrical engineer. As a member of the Erg, he is one of the few who understand the lights on the stage.
