Rotary's Song Leader
Joe Caulder Remembers Walter Jenkins
I have known Walter Jenkins since June 1922 when we met
on a Rotary special train from Calgary to Los Angeles enroute to the
International Rotary Convention. What a great head of black hair Walter had then. He was
on the special with Ma Sunday, wife of the famous preacher (Evangelist)
Billy Sunday and young Walter Jenkins was his song leader. Later we got to
know his wife Vivian very well as Walter had been song leader at all big
Rotary Conventions. Walter has had a great career and we are all hoping he
will still be Rotary's song leader in 1964 when the International Rotary
Convention will again be held in Toronto. As I write this (August 1961),
Walter has just led the singing at the Rotary Convention in Tokyo which had
the record attendance of 23,378 register. J. A. CAULDER. |
