 Davis life reads like novel. Born in -Nephi. Utah. on Christmas Day. 1891, he began riding the range when he was IS. Having an unordi- nary love for mathematics, he at-
 tracted the attention of a cow-hand working with him who asked him why he did not go to Annapolis
 where he could put the faculty to some use.
 Where and what is Annapolis" the young cowboy asked. Upon re- ceiving information concerning the national school, he wrote to au- thorities and received an application blank which included In it's ques- tions: When did you first think of coming to Annapolis and what quali- flcations have made you believe that you would be fitted for the exam
 Inatlons?"
 The youngster wrote back, T | thought of coming to Annapolis yes- terday and I have no qualifications" , When he took his entrance exam nations Davis flunked every sub ject but mathematics which he passed with ease. Evidently the powers-that-b considered that uual
 ity rare enough to accept him and 1t was not long before the Utah cow
 boy was graduating from the Naval Academy, standing third in his class. During the war Davis was ap- pointed aide to Admiral Joseph
 Straus and was sent to lay mines in the North sea. During the war Davis superintended the laying Of 56,00o mines from Scotland to Norway. Following the war he was engaged i in mine sweeping and had several
 close calls in that dangerous occu- 1 patton.
 In 1922 Davis took up flying, at- tending the Navy School at Pensa-
 cola. He did a little mining en- gineering in Minnesota and made enough 10 pay his way through a
 three-year course. On the side he
 ran the squantum naval reserve air
 field and managed to pass his law examinations, satisfactorily If not brilliantly.
