Walter Arthur Campbell ’33

Art died Dec. 8, 1996. He grew up on a farm outside of Princeton and went to Princeton H.S.

We remember him as a battling representative of our class in the cane spree both freshman and sophomore years, as the member of the wrestling team who moved up whenever we needed someone in a heavier weight, and as a hard-nosed tackle on the 150-pound football team. He also played rugby. He was a member of Cannon Club.

After college he coached and taught at Teaneck H.S. and earned a law degree at Rutgers. He and Helen Margesson were married in 1937. Art served in the Army in Europe and was wounded in the leg in the Battle of the Bulge. We know that Sgt. Campbell was in the middle of the fight when things were tough.

He practiced law in NYC, specializing in tax work and wills and estates. For many years Art and his family lived in Ho-Ho-Kus, N.J., and in due course he moved his successful law practice there.

He is survived by his wife, Helen; his children, David and Sally, and his daughter-in-law, the widow of Peter C. Campbell '62, whose death in Oct. 1995 was a sad blow to Art. Art was a battler all the way and a good man to have on your side.
