Scott, head of the Sheffield Scientific Institute at Yale for many years, and Rev. Herbert Scott, Rochester, N. Y., and two sisters, Misses Emma and Bertha Scott of Columbus.
In a statement Tuesday, President Rightmire said "Last Week was the highest point in Dr. Scott's career. His last day was an eminently happy one. He responded to the highest standards of worth and quality by which men may be measured.
Honorary pallbearers will be President Rightmire, Dean Upham, George W. Eckelberry, H. L. Stradley, Dr. Verne O. Dodd, Dr. Carl Spo__, Dr. E. J. Gordon, Dr. A. C. Doan, Dr. H. L. Reinhart and Dr. S.
