When Joe goes to Brown she loses one of her most promis- ing scientists, honor students, and a member of the Brain Trust of Fletcher, Aldrich, and Brown. In contrast to his scientific knowledge, he has shown marked ability in music and writing. The world has need of just such versatility as personified by Edmund.

Her favorite study is English, which combines readily with her favorite hobby, reading. After graduation she will be a worthy addition to some business man ' s office.
