Who was the original 4-J?

I don't know if he was the 'original' 4-J, but he did use 4-J on this same boat the final year he raced JU in (I think 1962). I do not have a picture of the boat with 4-J on it, however. Anyone recognize who this is?

Steve: BSR -CSR "Hop Tu-It" was Lary Castagneto and you got the 1st SSOA national champ correct - Bud Goodwin. Good memory.

In the entry showing a picture of Ed Wulff the boat in the background with yellow numbers appears to be 51-D. 51-D was Frank Warner CU & DU who drove his boat over the dam in either Turner Falls - MA?? or South Hadley - MA?? in 1959. A guy by the name of Herb Lanphear (name spell??) from NY who raced my own particular class ASH slid down face of dam to assist.
