72. He received the Nobel Prize for his discoveries concerning the chemical treatment of prostate cancer.
CHARLES HUGGINS

If there is not a Miller in here to give us Miller Huggins for our Yankee match, I will be very surprised.

I thought

16. In 1952, this chemist conducted a seminal experiment in the formation of organic compounds from inorganic matter, under the supervision of an older scientist who declined to take publishing credit for his role.
STANLEY MILLER

might work - but it's backwards.

There is a Charles Stanley who was the long, long-time pastor of the First Baptist Church here in Atlanta. I'm not sure if he is well known enough outside this area to catch Frank's attention or not.

Anytime I flip the dials on a Sunday morning and see Don Knotts preaching at me, it catches my attention.

That's who I was thinking of - not sure if it would got with ministries or Atlanta. I was looking for Touch for his In Touch group.

But to fit the pattern, wouldn't it have to be Stanley Charles?

Did I screw it up?

Touch isn't on here, but Ministry is. I just fixated on the Atlanta part. The pattern is that the order of the last names is the reverse of the order of the first names. So 1) Charles Huggins and 2) Stanley Miller yield Charles (1) Stanley (2) and Miller (2) Huggins (1).

PAUL ALLEN

77. One of the college roommates who co-founded Facebook, he later served as editor-in-chief of the New Republic.
I'm not sure of this matchup. 77 is CHRIS HUGHES. That would form Allen Hughes, the director of Menace II Society.

But I don't see a real good matchup for Chris Paul. He's currently with Phoenix, but that's not the team where he spent most of his career. But I don't see any better associated words for him.

28. This Scottish botanist gave his name to the random action of particles suspended in a liquid or gas.
ROBERT BROWN

73. He acted as defense attorney for arguably the most significant Supreme Court case of the pre-Civil War period, and later served in Lincoln’s cabinet.
EDWIN STANTON
Some deduction, some cheating here. I figured that "Molly" went with Blair Brown, which meant that someone on the list had the last name of Blair.

73. is Montgomery Blair, who was Postmaster General under Lincoln.

Blair Brown goes with Molly
Robert Montgomery goes with Jordan

And a bit of a minor inaccuracy here. Dred Scott was the plaintiff in the case before the Supreme Court (Sanford was his owner), which was a civil case, not a criminal case. So Blair acted as the plaintiff's attorney.
