He worked with the Ohio State Cooperative Extension Service in its efforts to serve the greenhouse business in Cuyahoga County, reporting on the results of seed developed especially for greenhouse use and on the efficiency of tomato plants grown in areas where CO2 production had been enhanced. This interest in the scientific basis of farming started in his high school years at West Technical High School and led to his participation as a 4-H club advisor in Cuyahoga County.
As a councilman of the Village of Brooklyn Heights for 16 years, he represented the municipality on the early regional planning boards responsible for directing and organizing urban growth patterns in the greater Cleveland area. Before Brooklyn Heights existed, he served as constable, a forerunner to today's policeman, for the area known as Brooklyn Village.
