Description

Since Harry was working in Louisiana while his family remained in Knoxville (until he could find a large enough place to live), he found an activity that kept him intellectually intrigued and physically occupied. That "something" turned out to be SCUBA. In 1959, Harry became active in the Dixie Divers, a local dive club at the time. From his typewritten diver's logbook, we know that Harry and his many friends dived everywhere they could from Lake Pontchartrain to the offshore oil and gas platforms in the Gulf of Mexico. Harry's interest in scuba grew to the point of sharing his knowledge and abilities through teaching the public to scuba dive in the early 1960s at the Lee Circle YMCA on St. Charles and later at the New Orleans Athletic Club.
