PROFESSOR EMERITUS KARL K. KLEIN Born May 15, 1916, in Buffalo, N.Y., Professor Klein died peacefully in his sleep on Oct. 31, 2003, in Ithaca, N.Y., following a stroke. Karl's military service included two years assisting in physical rehabilitation at the U.S. Naval Rehabilitation Center in Corvallis, Ore. Early in his career Professor Klein lived in Ithaca, N.Y., while teaching at Ithaca College, then Springfield, Mass., while working on his masters degree. The next 43 years found him at the University of Texas at Austin. After retirement, he and his wife, Marjorie, moved back to their cabin in Ithaca, N.Y., where they had spent their summers while in Texas. In 1990 they moved to Longview retirement community in Ithaca, across the highway from Ithaca College. At UT Austin Professor Klein started and was director of the Physical Rehabilitation Clinic, helping people from all walks of life. His work also included federally funded research related to sports injury prevention programs, analysis of short leg syndrome, and studies that led to the prohibition of deep knee bends in all branches of the military. His work was recognized by the American College of Sports Medicine, and one of his testing instruments is at the Smithsonian in Washington, D.C. He always refused payment from people he helped, instead asking that they donate to scholarship funds he and Marjorie established. Professor Klein was widely published in professional journals and was invited and traveled to numerous countries to present professional information. A major pride in his life was, as a non-medical doctor, being asked to present his work at national and international medical conferences. Professor Klein is survived by Marjorie M. (Mount) Klein, wife of more than 66 years; son Keith K. Klein of South Lake Tahoe, Calif.; granddaughter Kitty Reed, her husband John and great-grandsons Austin and Dylan, of Evergreen, Colo.; and granddaughter Lemoore Roth and her husband David, of North Fork, Calif.
