Title
Dr. Alice Boyle's Studies of Saguaros
Description
Dr. Alice Boyle’s studies of saguaros included treatments with penicillin that were somewhat successful. Later research showed that the loss of old saguaros was a result of age and periodic freezes, not a “blight”! Dr. Alice Boyle sits in a saguaro.
