Well, certainly she was a remarkable woman, very talented in many directions and extremely bright as a student. I think she graduated number one in her class. She was the valedictorian and all the things that go with that.

Can you make a visual picture for me, of what she looked like when you first met?

Well, her hair was down to her waist, that's one thing I remember. Because I stuck her hair in an inkwell once.

Why did you do that?

Oh, just being ornery. She was sitting ahead of me, and her hair was beautifully--I said it went down to her waist, but it was very long.

What color was it?

What color? A dark brown, very dark but not black. She had brown eyes, fair skin. She was about 5'6″. Like all young girls at that age she was thin as a pencil, very tall and very graceful, a fair tennis player--better than I. She could run like a deer. She was very strong, and I guess that's about it. She was always interested in things mechanical. She excelled in college in physics, even though she was much more a social scientist than she was a serious or hard science--

What did she take her degree in?
