This might help you out:
W8AXZ listed in Fall 1952 callbook
W8AXZ not listed in Fall 1953 callbook
W8AXZ not listed in Fall 1954 callbook
W8AXZ not listed in Fall 1955 callbook
W8AXZ not listed in Fall 1957 callbook
W8AXZ not listed in Summer 1958 callbook
W8AXZ and K8TIG not listed in Spring 1959 callbook

I did a search on "univ" for the above "not listed" callbooks and did not find any call assigned specifically to Univ of Mich.

Thanks for the update, Tom. You work quick. I think you were lucky to run into someone with such a facinating history in Ham Radio. Having the R-390a in common will make for a great conversation. Good going !

That is an interesting one. I have only found KL7AIK listed in the early 1950s',
Kurt Rosner, Shemya Air Force Base, Alaska
I assume that this is an Oregon plate(?). Is it a modern plate or do you remember if the color is from another time ? I hope that you can catch up to this person and find out the mystery.

I can tell you that he was not a long time ham in the U.S. I have searched a sample of all decades of U.S. callbooks and never once found any "Stebens" listed. So, it is still possible that he was licensed briefly and I missed that particular year(s).

Unfortunately, I only find a Wilbert Schwark, W9IHG from Fond du Lac, WI. while searching the 9th call area from 1930s through the 1970s (scanned and searchable) callbooks.

John P. Yanak - You have the call correct. Last appeared in the Summer 1969 Callbook.
Looks like he is still living in PA. after doing a google search.

He is listed in the Callbooks of the mid 1950s:
Harold R. Claypoole
1003 Brad Ave
Canton, OH
and
RFD 5
Hillsboro, OH
If you google "Harold R. Claypoole" you will find more info and KB8PVK, possibly his son (?).

WA6KRA was "very briefly" issued to :
Winfield H. Edwards
169 Gemini Ave
Lompoc, Ca. 93436
in the very early 1970's. This is probably not your guy. In the later part of the 1970's, the call was issued to:
Richard O. Hofmann
1178 Carrie Lee Way
San Jose, Ca. 95118
He held the call until it expired in 2008. He would be 81 yrs old.

I have checked the:
Summer 1965 Foreign Callbook
Winter 1972-73 Foreign Callbook
Winter 1977-78 Foreign Callbook
Winter 1980-81 Foreign Callbook
under the "DU" prefix and find no Roman Gregorio. Could this have been from later than the 1980-81 Callbook ?
