Clifton Siegelin ’32 *34
Cliff Siegelin died Aug. 4, 1996, at Glenside Nursing Home in New Providence, N.J., after a long illness.
After attending graduate school at Princeton as a student and research assistant in physics, he taught math and chemistry at Plainfield H.S. and joined Hazeltine Radio Corp. as an engineer. He then continued his engineering career with two other companies and eventually joined the technical staff of Bell Telephone Labs and AT&T. During WWII, he participated in the development of complex radioteletype systems operated by the Signal Corps and the Air Force. He was a senior member of the Institute of Radio Engineers. He was also an officer in the Inter
Municipal Group for Better Rail Service, a New Jersey organization. Following his retirement from AT&T he became a professor at Union County [N.J.] College until he further retired in 1990.
Cliff never married and left no known relatives. Many of his friends in our class, however, will remember Cliff as a brilliant and congenial Princetonian.
