...reference. He received degrees from the University of Illinois and taught mathematics in Iowa colleges. For the last ten years he has lived in Chicago, carrying on private researches in physics.

Thereupon did the ex-Premier flush with anger, despite the fact that he is a professor of mathematics, a critic of the Einstein theory. He dropped the big book with a bang and with 20 of his Socialist colleagues he dashed across the Chambre to storm the Royalist benches. Six uniformed sergeants-at-arms rushed forward to stop the threatened melée; one seized M. Painlevé around the waist, but it was useless; they were outnumbered. Blows, kicks, curses, cuffs rained in profusion...

...explanation of the hitherto inexplicable in nature; "Rx, the most wonderful, abundant, and essential kind of matter known to man", and in a rambling treatise for the lay reader not only overthrows all existing theories of the constitution of matter and proves the Bible scientific, but explains Einstein...
...Professor of Mathematics at the University of Chicago. His achievement was a general mathematical theory including as special cases certain fundamental branches, such as quaternions and vector analysis. It is comparable in importance to the so-called calculus of Ricci and Levi Civita, which formed the mathematical basis for Einstein's general relativity theory. Unfortunately, these theories are so abstruse that only the trained mathematician can penetrate their mysteries. Laymen must take on faith the fact that all branches of modern science depend upon highly complex mathematical tools, as is evidenced by the judgment of the committee on award, which...
