Clayton White Morehead ’32 *33

Clay died June 25, 2004.

He prepared at Schenley High School in Pittsburgh. At Princeton he was on the Swimming Squad, was property manager of the Triangle Club, and was a member of Glee Club, University Choir, and Court Club. He obtained a professional degree in electrical engineering at Princeton in 1933 and went to work for Republic Steel Corp. in Youngstown, Ohio. Clay worked for Republic in various capacities including laboring, engineering, and supervision, eventually becoming assistant superintendent of blooming and billet mills. He left Republic in 1943 to join Page Hersey Tubes as plant engineer, later becoming assistant general works manager and finally general works manager.

Because of unusual pressure due to plant expansion in recent years, Clay had to drop such activities as Rotary Club and Chamber of Commerce, retaining only his membership in technical societies and remaining active in church work.

Clay was predeceased by his wife, Helen McDonald Morehead; his sister, Barbara Morehead; and his brother, James C. Morehead Jr. He is survived by his children, Jean Greenberg, Clayton Morehead, Jr., and Barbara Storer; four grandchildren; and three great-grandchildren. The class extends sincere sympathy to the family.
