Dr. S.F. Herrman, left, admired the May Wettern rose held by C.M. Murphy during the 30th annual Rose Show, held June 14-15th, 1941 at the Armory. However, judges from the Tacoma Rose Society, sponsor of the show, found the Angelus Mateu raised, and held, by Dr. Herrman to be the Best Rose exhibited. Mr. Murphy's rose was a close second. The pair are standing in front of the display fountain erected by Metro Parks and Tacoma Lights. (T.Times 6/26/2941, pg. 14)
