WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, FRIDAY, DECEMBER 20, 1918 ANOTHER WINNETKA BOY MAKES SUPREME SACRIFICE Mrs. Frank R. Fuller has received official notification, through the Red Cross, that her son, 1st Lieut. Ros- well Hayes Fuller was killed in com- bat, September 29. There has been much anxiety in Winnetka during the past weeks con- cerning his fate. Word came on October 29 that he was reported as missing, having last been seen flying over the German lines in pursuit of a Boche plane. Winnetka has been hoping each day that confirmation might come of the safety of this braverboy, so much lovéd in the Vil- lage and that the suspense so nobly born by his mother might be happily ended, Winnetka, in sorrow but with pride in the spirit and achievement of this boy, now adds a fifth gold star to her service flag. ; Lieutenant Fuller enlisted in the aviation corps in April 1917, being at ' the time a senior at. Yale. He re- t ceaved his ground, training at . Champaign, and his flying training at Wilbur Wright field in Dayton, O. He had been overseas a year. For the first two months he was adju- tant of the fourth wing of the pro- visional army in England. In France he was for six months an instructor in acrobatic flying at Fssoudun. Lieut. Fuller was 23 years old. He was sent to the front shortly before the big allied attack in July, and had seen active fighting service ever since. Lieutenant Fuller's father, the late Frank R. Fuller, was at the time of his death, three years ago, vice resident of the Fuller-Morrison rug company.
