Call of Grim Reaper Answered by Friend of Waifs

Stricken suddenly by the call of death yesterday, Clifford Groover, a Mercer Princeton Chicago alumnus and Georgian sociological worker, died in a local sanitarium after a brief illness. He had moved to Atlanta to launch the National Children's Home Society in Georgia, winning homes for needy waifs and homeless youths. Funeral arrangements were made for Statesboro, where his remains were sent. Governors and reformers weighed human conservation, contrasting efforts for child welfare with forest and water resource management, as The Survey discussed. Groover had previously carried out notable sociological work in Salt Lake City, aiding Protestant churches against the Maimon influence and promoting humane shelter in Georgia.
