Julian Corman, scientist, at 84, hit by car while crossing highway
North Brunswick – An 84-year-old Highland Park man was fatally injured yesterday morning when a car struck him as he walked across Route 130 just south of its intersection with Route 1, police said. Patrolman Michael Grasso, the investigating officer, said Julian Corman of South Adelaide Avenue was dead on arrival at Middlesex General-University Hospital, New Brunswick, with massive chest injuries.
Grasso said Corman was apparently searching for an office along the highway. He was crossing to the south side of the road, where investigators believe he had parked his car. According to an eyewitness, Corman, dressed in a suit and tie, was crossing he road at a "jogging" speed when he was struck by a car driven by Earl Willis, 24, of Highland Park, in the northbound lane, Grasso said. Corman was not crossing at an intersection, the officer said. The accident is still under investigation. No charges have been filed.
Corman was born in St. Louis and lived in Illinois and Iowa before moving to Highland Park 15 years ago. He was a widely-renowned biochemist and microbiologist, holding numerous patents in each field. He was employed by the U.S. Department of Agriculture for 32 years. He then worked for Northern Regional Research Laboratory, Peoria, Ill. Before retiring four years ago, he was associated with Rutgers University Chemical Engineering department for more than 10 years. He received his bachelor's and master's degrees from the University of Illinois. He was a member of the Highland Park Conservative Temple and Center.
Surviving are his wife, Minnie Tashman Corman; a daughter, Jacqueline Meisel of Princeton; two brothers, Louis of Los Angeles and Harry, a Navy commander from Norfolk, Va.; three grandchildren and four great-grandchildren.
Services will be held tomorrow at 12:30 p.m. at Highland Park Conservative Temple and Center, Third Ave. and Benner St., with Rabbi Yakov R. Hilsenrath officiating. Burial will be in Mount Lebanon Cemetery, Iselin section of Woodbridge. Arrangements are by Crabiel, Harding and Jamison Funeral Home, 239 Livingston Ave., New Brunswick. Memorial contributions may be made to the Highland Park Conservative Temple and Center, Third Ave. and Benner St., Highland Park.
