HIS final exploit was his most famboy-

leading neurologists, recently consulted
about these cases, agreed that characters
have been changed for the worse by brain
injuries. They are skeptical that they could
be improved by an injury. can only say
there were many of us, including professors
and at least one doctor, who were convinced
that's that did happen to Dr. Sharp.
Jake" Sharp was plodding student
who, in his freshman year, showed no
aptitude or interest in studies.
In his sophomore year, he marched in
political parade in Utica An unidentified
tough ran out from the sidewalk, clubbed
Jake down, fracturing his skull, and es-
capped. When he came out of the hospital,

the injured brain, some strange metamor-
phosis had taken place On his return to
classes, he manifested an amazing mathe-
matical aptitude. Christian Henry Freder-
ick Peters, noted astronomer and one of the
first mathematicians of his day, made a pro-
tege of Sharp, who graduated with honors.
From that time his advance was steady.
Within 20 years he was an important physi-
cist, holding valuable patents on several
electrical devices. Another 20 years and
he was an international figure as physi-
cist and electrical engineer.
He represented the United States on
many foreign commissions, was an honorary
member of scientific societies in several
European countries, was president of two
international commissions and, two years
before his death, had been elected president
of the National Society of Electrical Engi-
neers. The rowdy's club had changed the
direction and purpose of his life, as the film
of ice had changed that of CASTOR B. Means.

He may we'll have had in mind the thin
line which divides the upright and honored
citizen from the condemned criminal. 1t is
daunting thought, how precariously hu-

MacArthur's Careers
-

DICTURED on these two
L. pages are a few phases
Of the long and eventful
career-or careers, rather
of Douglas Macarthur.
Gen. Macarthur, now 10,
began his first career In 1908
when he graduated from
West Point with the best
record attained by any cadet
In Is years. That career
ended in 1885 with his re-
tirement as Chief of Staff
the youngest the Army ever
had. In the intervening 80
years, he had served with dis
tinction in the Philippines,
in Mexico, and as COM
mander of World War rs
famed Rainbow Division.
Career NO. z was short
from 1886 to 194l when, with
the rank of Field Marshal, he
organized and trained the
Philippine army and con-
stabulary.
The threat of Japan's grow
ing power brought him back
into the United States Army
as a lieutenant general, and
the Philippine forces along
with him. That was the be-
ginning Of career No. 3, which
took him from Corregidor to
Australia, back to the Philip
pines, to Japan-and finally,
after Al years of soldering,
to Korea.

writes, when the papers charged
