Previous to attending King’s College, he was at Sir Walter Dr. John’s School, Battersea, where during his last year he obtained his Higher School Cert. with exemption from Inter B.A. Your records will show that he passed his Inter L.L.B., but the war somewhat hindered his studies. At the time of entering the Service he was engaged with the Westminster City Council as their Re-housing officer.
