Description

Three Fort Worth veterans Monday had joined City Public Works Director Jones' army of engineers mapping civic projects. Only one of the three, William Patrick O'Donnell served with the Army. The other two are ex-Navy men. O'Donnell, 25 and one of the youngest draftsmen in the recently expanded city department of engineering, served in the European theater. Ira C. (Roy) Driver who was a lieutenant in the Navy, spent 22 months overseas. He is an assistant engineer with the city. Jack G. Howell, former civil engineer in the Navy, was in the Pacific for almost two years. Jones has expanded and reorganized his department in order to meet additional work orders brought about by the city's post-war plans.
