wellington was a tightly knit hamlet where everyone was in hard times. and the outlook was so stark that they all had to pull together. one of his childhood friends reported in the local oral history, "in the winter, the eastern sky was cold, bleak, and empty, and sometimes you wondered if you'd already died." white later told a journalist, "i suppose that you could say that by the standards of today we were all quite poor, although you didn't necessarily feel poor because everyone was more or less the same, everybody worked for a living. everybody. everybody." the dissonance between that world and the art of cheesy headlines and mock heroism must have been a shock to the system for him. he and his brother who preceded him as student body president at the university of colorado and as a rhodes scholar, had no doubt what grounded their values. asked why they held this or that conviction, sam white would say simply, "we learned that in wellington," as if it was a course in ethics as well as a location. in many respects, byron white was never far from welli
