He graduated from Rutgers univer sity and later became a junior executive at Johnson and Johnson company here all as a woman. But "Edna" though considered a good-looking coed by Rutgers classmates had deep doubts as to her rightful place in nature's scheme, Dr. Church said. She found she had to shave every day, and she had unusually strong hands and arms for a woman. Finally, Dr. Church said, she came to him for advice. Dr. Church sent the troubled woman to leading medical authorities. They agreed that she was predominantly male and with her full cooperation suggested an operation to complete the trans .formation to a normal man. The new Ed Genecki will be coming home next week. He'll take up his old job where he left it and take a new place in the community as a man. Neighbors and co-workers have been told of his change.

It looks like Russian thistle but contains enough oxalic acid to kill a sheep that cats a pound and a half of the weed. Thousands of sheep have been lost since the halogeton first ap peared in Idaho two years ago. Nevada has had a similar loss. It is spreading, and is hard to control because it taKes hold readily on poor land that is worth less than the cost of killing the weed off.
