Noel H. Kinch
Noel Kinch , a deep-sea fisherman, was awarded the Stanhope Gold Medal for the bravest deed of 1936. He rescued a drowning shipmate off the coast of Iceland, and had to fight a shark with his right hand for forty minutes while he held the man, whose life he saved, in his left. Men like Kinch are men of action, reluctant to speak of the things they have done, and very often inarticulate in expressing them. F. H. Grise wood will come to the microphone to try to draw him out.
