Simpich, who was grad- uated from the School of Journalism this spring, carries a watch with that proud inscription on the back. It was given him in recognition of his bravery in, staying by a’ wound- ed comrade during the fighting in the Argonne when Simpich was him- self wounded almost ‘to the point of death. He stood ly his buddy—and came with his right leg gone, his her leg wounded his chest crush- and shrapnel wounds in various places. But Simpich put the fight- ing spirit {nto his reconstruction days, and with his crutches to take the place of the missing leg, and a genial smile to cover up any other physical disabilities, he has made good. He was graduated as presi dent of the School of Journalism student body. He also held the m important position to be filled by student in many years in the Uni- versity of Missouri, that of director of the Student Memorial Campaign. In this he led the students of all nd schoois of the Uni- versity over the top in their pledges. re Days Without Doctor's Care The military record of this fight- ing Missourian is unique among strange and almost unbelievable rec- ords of what men suffered and yet came back alive. On more than one occasion in those days after the Armistice, when he had come back from German captivity, hard-boiled, American hospital officers heard his story and refused to belleve he was telling absolute truth. “You say you were seriously wounded on September 29 and did not recéive medical attention until October 32” one of them asked. “Yes, sir,” answered Simpich. “But, man, that's five snorted the surgeon.

Misfortune Still Followed Him. “Pop—pop—pop!” A German sniper spotted him and sent a string of machine-gun bullets. One found Simpich’s left kneecap and shattered it. Both legs were now useless! “Give up?” Simpich relates.

Then the British became bis hosts, and from various hospitals he reached Boulogne, crossed the channel, and went from Dover, to Middlesex, to London. 4 . “Here a grim piece of ‘trony awaited me,” Simpich says. “I was turned over to the American bos- pital, and was refused admittance because I had on a German uniform and had no proof of my identity as an American soldier.
