I'm not seeing much notice here, only local references other than crossing paths with Will Rogers. Clarityfiend (talk) 01:36, 12 November 2012 (UTC)

 * Delete. With much better sourcing, someone like this could plausibly be notable, but in this case all I'm seeing is WP:INHERITED. —David Eppstein (talk) 23:10, 17 November 2012 (UTC)

 * Weak keep. I've added one reliable source which I found. The subject also seems to have been noted in (SPS) genealogy research. -- Trevj (talk) 11:41, 26 November 2012 (UTC)

 * Keep - the subject led the school and expanded the campus during a 20 year tenure. Seems to meet WP:Notability.   Blue   Riband►  01:21, 4 December 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete. He doesn't meet the academics' notability guideline; if one does not consider him an academic, he really doesn't meet general guidelines either.  See basic criterion 2; he has not, to the extent that sources prove, made a widely-covered or significant contribution to his field's history.  I do not believe that serving as president of a military high school qualifies one's article for inclusion, and his tenure does not equate to significant contributions.   dci  &#124;  TALK   02:52, 4 December 2012 (UTC)
 * merge to Kemper Military School Most of the content of this biography is already in the school article, nearly word-for-word. I don't see any other notability for him and the few other biographical details could be summarized in the school article. Mangoe (talk) 13:25, 4 December 2012 (UTC)
 * Merge - Agree with Mangoe above. AdventurousSquirrel (talk) 21:05, 4 December 2012 (UTC)
