Before joining Merritt-Chapman and Scott, he served as executive engineer of the Morrison-Knudsen Company, Inc., where he engaged in heavy construction engineering in the United States and South America."

It is with sadness that we record the passing of Josh Walsh '30 in Norwalk, Conn., on September 20. Josh was a consulting engineer with Blauvelt and Company, New York, and had compiled a fine record as a civil engineer in bridges, complex structures, and turnpikes.
