Soon after WWI Clarence worked as central sporting representative and general news and feature writer at the Christian Science Monitor. He also served as Publicity Director for the National Billiard Association and wrote stories for The Saturday Evening Post, National Republic, The Boys World, Sportlife and The Athletic Journal. His widely distributed syndicated sports column led Clarence to coauthor two books: Swimming the American Crawl, by Johnny Weissmuller; and The Outline of Swimming, by William Bachrach; Johnny's swimming coach. Toward the end of his life Clarence was appointed Publicity and Campaign Director, American Olympic Committee; where he raised funds for America's expedition to the Olympic Games in 1936. Clarence passed in 1938 from a massive heart attack. He was survived by his wife Margaret, four children and eventually, eleven grandchildren.
