Delete without prejudice. I couldn't find any sources online other than a few lists that verify the existence of this person. It seems possible that offline sources exist given that this person is most notable for stuff that he did in the mid-20th century, so I wouldn't be opposed if someone recreated with proper sourcing. — SamX [ talk · contribs] 02:44, 15 March 2023 (UTC)- Keep following expansion.
