He got a PhD in plant breeding and worked briefly for the famous popcorn breeder in Indiana and then went to work in Central America on a bananna plantation. The last that I heard about him was in a 1984 from a chemical company saleman who knew him and had worked with him. As I recall, Dewayne was then divorced and suffering the problem that many international agriculturalists are prone to, excessive drinking.
