Veteran Veneer Maker Killed by Fcill 



John Roberts, New Albany, Ind., who retired from veneer manu- 

 facturing some time ago, died at his home there as the result of a

 juries and a broken leg. Mr. Roberts was 89 years old. He was 

 a native of Cincinnati and later moved to Indianapolis, where he 

 manufactured veneer. He came to New Albany about ten years ago 

 and became a member of the Roberts-Connor Veneer Company, 

 which plant was later sold to the Pickrel Veneer Company. His 

 son, John N. Roberts, who has been manufacturing veneer many 

 years, is the inventor of a veneer slicing machine.
