Show Mason Smith Gains Degree Under Pressure Mason Smith, Park City, will be graduated from Westminster College, Salt Lake City this week. That's a simple, straightforward straight-forward statement but there is more than the usual interest behind it. Five years ago this coming November Mason Smith was in a very serious construction accident ac-cident in Payson, Utah, with great damage to his legs. Four years ago he was enrolled at Westminster College and this week he will receive two degreesone de-greesone in Physical Education Educa-tion and one in Business Administration. Ad-ministration. When he started his college education he was in a wheel chair with heavy braces on both legs; some time after that he progressed to crutches with the braces. Today? One leg brace only - no crutches, no cane! Mason Smith, his wife and their three children are all Parkites and Mason is in hopes of going on to graduate work in the field of Physical Therapy. This is a real success story 1 and we congratulate him and wish him well. |
