Born in Walkerton, Ind., Harold Clayton Urey was left fatherless when he was 6. His mother and later his stepfather helped him through University of Montana, from which he emerged a zoologist.

(Bachelor of Theology) from General Seminary at 18, a Columbia Ph. D. at 20. Two years ago he was ordained an Episcopal priest, assigned to a small parish in outlying Astoria. His Columbia classmates remember "Ed" Hardy as a shy, big-featured, lumbering fellow who attended every class meeting and otherwise tried hard to be "regular."
