[PW] QUERY: Harold Bindloss

[S M Colowick]

Karen,

I just tried to send you the obit from the NYT Historical Backfile.
Let me know if you don't get it and I can try a different method.
Meanwhile I'll go ahead and transcribe it for you (to come). And I'll
make sure there isn't another article about him. He's mentioned about
60 times.
