I have supervised the advanced study and research work of Mr. Albrecht during the past three years. Mr. Albrecht has a thorough training in chemistry, and a good understanding also of physics and mathematics and related subjects. He has done satisfactory work in graduate courses at this Institute. As a research man he has mastered the difficult field of the x-ray study of the structure of crystals, and he is publishing in the May issue of the Journal of the American Chemical Society, in collaboration with Dr. R. B. Corey, a very important paper on the crystal structure of glycine.
