Eddie Kahn

Before reading John U. Bacon's article in the latest Michigan Today, I was unaware of the wonderful legacy of Eddie Kahn.  With a lull in men's basketball, the current hockey team struggling through a tough season, and not a whole lot else going on, this article is worth your attention if you have a penchant for U-M history.

Some of the high points include:

• Scored U-M's first hockey goal in January 1923
• Son of architecture giant Albert Kahn
• WWII veteran with a record of distinguished service
• Neurosurgery pioneer, heading up the University Hospital Neurosurgery Section from 1949-1971
• Knew some famous folks from the 20th century
