Robert Rohr Ludwig
Ludwig, Robert "Bob" Rohr (1907-1965)
Portrait of Robert Rohr Ludwig as a young man.
This photograph was made for the 1925 Strasburg High School yearbook, when Bob was a senior. The yearbook staff wrote this about him:
"Bob" is one of our classmates whom we can always find busy, no matter what the task may be, he never gives up until it is finished. "Bob" never fails to know his lessons, especially History, and when it comes to having a good time or playing a joke on some one he is always present. "Bob" is especially good in athletics, being a good basketball player, as well as a member of the baseball and track teams. "Bob" is going to Texas after graduation, so he says, where some day we may find him, a typical rancher."
