      Alvin J. Huss (1904-1998)

      Alvin Huss was a native of St. Louis, Missouri. He attended Washington University and developed his knowledge of wood products at the Forest Products Laboratory in Wisconsin. In 1932 Huss formed the Chicago-based Huss Lumber Company, which marketed cypress and other lumber for leading producers in Florida and Louisiana. During World War II and the Korean War, he worked for the United States Navy Bureau of Ships in the design and wood procurement program for the production of wooden mine sweepers, PT boats, and wooden landing craft. In 1953 he acquired control of Northern Redwood Lumber Company in Korbel, California, which he later sold to Simpson Lumber Company of Seattle. He formed the Huss Ontonagan Pulp and Paper Company in 1955 after acquiring the Ontonagon, Michigan, paperboard mill from National Container Corporation. The company merged into Hoerner Boxes, Inc. in 1962, into Hoerner Waldorf Corporation in 1966, and into Champion International Corporation in 1977. Huss became chairman of the board of Hoerner Waldorf in 1967 and served as honorary vice-chairman and senior advisor for Champion International from 1977 until his retirement in 1994.
