Per Wikipedia, Luke Chia-Liu Yuan (Simplified Chinese: 袁家骝; Traditional Chinese: 袁家騮; Pinyin: Yuán Jiāliú; Wade-Giles: Yüan Chia-Liu; 1912 -2003) Was A Chinese-American Physicist. He Was The Husband Of The Famous Physicist Chien-Shiung Wu, Who Disproved The Conservation Of Parity. Born In Anyang, Henan, Yuan Was The Grandson Of Yuan Shikai, The Second President Of The Republic Of China, Via His Third Korean Concubine Lady Kimedia .Luke Studied In Anyang Then At Age 13, He Went To Nankai High School In Tianjin For A Month, But Then Transferred To The Academy Of Modern Learning, Run By A London-Based Missionary.

Luke Matriculated At The College Of Industry And Commerce In 1928 As A Major In Engineering. He Transferred To Yenching University In 1930, Where The Chinese Theoretical Physicist Xie Yu-Ming Was A Professor. Luke's Interest In Radio Led To Radio Communications As A Serious Hobby. He Graduated In 1932, Stayed In The Graduate School For Two More Years, And Received A Master's Degree. It Was After Graduation That Luke Worked In Tangshan Coal Mine For One Year.
