Professor
William Berryman Scott, 70, great-great-grandson of Benjamin Franklin, was asked by Princeton University to continue teaching geology for two more years, even though he has already reached the official retiring age for Princeton professors. Professor Scott has been on the Princeton faculty for 45 years, has traveled some 250,000 miles on diggers' expeditions, is almost as well-known scientifically as his Princeton classmate, Henry Fairfield Osborn, president of the American Museum of Natural History.
