    April 22, 1955
a four-day illness, Prof. Albert Einstein, 76 year old world famous
scientist, died at the Princeton Hospital on Monday morning, April 18.
a shy, white-haired doctor, Einstein was an unpretentious wizard of mathematics,
and physics - the best in the world. His complex theories, some of which are still
not understood, dealt wi-'-.h such things as electronics, atomic energy, nuclear fission
energy - to name only a few
Throughout his Infs., E:,rs-ein shunned publicity and his disdain for personal
glory and material gam wee practically a legend. Tn 1921 he received the Nobel
prize in physics and was showered with honors from all over the world. Although
he lived a secluded and quiet life, his baggy-clad figure, his pipe hanging from
his mouth, and his long shaggy white hair and mustache, made him instantly
recognizable almost anywhere.
At the time of his death, Dr. Einstein was a professor emeritus at the Institute
for Advanced Study and resided at Princeton.
