sports, in which, as sporting editor,
Bob" had been an honorary and an
honorable members as sporting editor
of The Call; indeed, men in all walks
of life were there to pay their tribute
in respect to the man whose II years
of newspaper activity had won him
their respect and friendship.
AS sporting editor Smyths work for
nearly a decade had brought him into
intimate contact with the leaders In
the western world of sports All of
them were there who were in the city.
They, best of all, perhaps, knew the
sterling integrity and worth of the man
whose death was mourned.
So there was no eulogy. The ritual
was read by Rev. DR.. Benson of St
Johns Episcopal church and the mourn
ers looked for the last time on the
countenance of the man they had called
comrade and friend.
The pail bearers were William
Rogers, William j. Slattery, Omar
Doyle, James Coffroth, Thomas B. Sui

The bier was borne. covered with
blossoms to Cypress Lawn cemetery,
where, after brief ceremonies, it was
laid away, while the widowed mother
