J. E. M'GRATH DIES;
US. SURVEY EXPERT
Discovery of Mount Logan Was His
Chief Contribution to Knowl-
edge of Alaskan Regions.

John Edward McGrath, a retired Of
| ficer in the United States Coast and
Geodetic Survey and discoyerer of
Mount Logan, died at his residence in
the Argonne Apartments on Thursday.
Mr.. McGrath was a native Wash.
ingtonian and received his early edu.
cation at St. Johns College and st.
Josept's Academy and College. He
graduated from the School of Mines
and Metallurgy of the University of
Missouri in 1876 with the degree of
civil engineer. He was SO years old
at the time of his death.
He was appointed in the Coast and
Geodetic Survey in 1878, and advanced
through all grades of the service to
that of photographic and geodetic en-
gineer, with relative rank of lieuten-
ant commander in the Navy. He was
retired September 1S, 1920, returned
to active duty on September 10, 1920,
and returned to inactive duty Novem-
Der II, 1921.
He was for several years director
of coast surveys in the Philippine
Islands.
Alaska Boundary Work.
Before entering the service of the
Coast and Geodetic Survey Mr.. Nc
Grath SoTNcd III the idHu survey OF
the State of New York. His most
notable work. however, was in the
connection with the survey of the
boundary between Alaska and Canada.
Mr.. McGrath was sent to Alaska
with J. H. Turner in 1889 at the re-
quest of the Department of State to
make a preliminary determination of
points on the Yukon and Porcupine
Rivers at or near the 141st meridian
of west longiture. They were pioneers
in this work, which was attended with
considerable hardship and danger.
In 1895 Mr.. McGrath made surveys
in Yakutat Bay and determined the
geographic position and height of
Mount ST. Elias. I'm connection with
the triangulation for the determine
ton of the location and height of
Mount St Elias he discovered and
located another peak IS miles north
easterly of Mount St. Elias. This
second peak is known as Mount Lo-
gan and is over 800 feet higher than
Mount st. Elias and the report of its
discovery was an interesting contribu-
ton to the geography of that region.
He was engaged on other surveys in
connection with the boundary until
1895.
He is survived by his wife, Mrs.
Morinia Arelia Sotts McGrath, who
is also a native Of this city, and by
three brothers and sister.

Oratory Winner May Choose Calling
Not Requiring His Marked Gifts
Young Robert Sessions Considers Entering Journal
ism or Becoming Physicidn-''Hned to See
Others Lose,'' His Feeling Concerning Contest.


Robert Sessions, the 15-year-old
Birmingham high school junior. who
was adjudged the champion scholas-
tic orator of the United States, thinks
he may enter a vocation. having no
special call for his natural gift of
oratory.
I'm thinking about becoming either
a journalist or a physician" Bob said
yesterday, "and then, again. j might
decide to be a lawyer, in which case,
of course, l would find lots of use for
oratory.
ITO tell you the truth he confided.
i've got so much more studying to
do in high school and college that it's
almost too early to make up my
mind
Bob takes the honors conferred on
him very lightly. He is extremely
modest about it ALL and contends that
he was mighty lucky to come out on
top of the heap of 400 900 competi-
tors.

Il wanted to win. of course, but
sure hated TO see the others lose" he
remarked with sincerity.
Just what he is going to do with his
81 ,00o prize he hasn't quite decided.
He is also non-commital about how
he will use the 81 ,060 college scholar
ship awarded him for winning the
Alabama State championship.
Il guess I'll go to dads alma mater,
Birmingham Southern College" he
said. although he intimated he might
later accept one of several scholar
ships offered him informally already
by leading universities.
Bob is far from being a book
worm" Back in Birmingham he is
noted for his athletic interests, and
was the popular choice of the
students at Phillips High School for
cheer leader. Re likes to play base
ball. tennis and other strenuous
sports and is an excellent rife shot.
His hobby is raising bantam chickens.
