George B. Levy ’47

George (sometimes known as Moe) died of cancer Aug. 4, 1996. He came to Princeton in 1943 from the U. of Pittsburgh in the Navy's V12 program and stayed on after the war, but returned to Pitt his senior year and took his degree there. At Princeton he won a varsity P in baseball.

George's professional life was devoted to the aluminum industry. As an officer of Natl. Intergroup, Inc. (formerly Natl. Steel), he specialized for many years in the manufacture, fabrication, and distribution of aluminum extrusions and the application of special finishes to the metal. He rose to the presidency of the corporation's national aluminum extrusion division and continued in that position until the onset of his illness.

He began a secondary career in 1959 as a radio spotter for Penn State. In the early 1960s he was a high school and college football scout and recruiter. He went on to become a professional scout for the Dallas Cowboys. In 1974 he became a radio spotter for WTAE broadcasts of Pitt football, and just three years ago he took on the same work for the Pittsburgh Steelers.

In 1947 he married Muriel Gusky, a U. of Pittsburgh graduate. To her and to their son, Robert '74, and their daughter, Mona Yarnell, the class extends its deepest sympathy.
