attended both Groton and Harvard , and was trained as an engineer . He later invented the “ Silvertone Radio ” and was the president of the Colonial Radio Corporation .
Fulton Cutting ’ s partner on the tennis court was his brother Charles Suydam Cutting ( 1889-1972 ), an explorer and naturalist , who lived at 14 East 89th Street . Suydam Cutting ’ s overland expeditions began in 1925 with the search in China for the ovis poli , a long horned ram , with the war heroes Kermit Roosevelt ( 1889-1943 ) and Theodore Roosevelt Jr . ( 1887-1944 ) for the Field Museum in Chicago , described by the Roosevelts in their 1926 book East of the Sun and West of the Moon . In 1927 , Suydam set out again with the Roosevelts , who had been his classmates at Groton , to China in search of the panda bear , which the Roosevelts wrote about in their book Trailing the Giant Panda . His numerous adventures were later described by Suydam in his book The Fire Ox and Other Years , with drawings by Alexander Iacovleff .
The Cutting legacy of scholarship , service , philanthropy , music , sport , and the mission-driven pillars of Saint David ’ s School live on within our townhouses , and the education of our boys .
