"Alexander Russell"
Bio:

In 1920, A. S. Russell, MC, a Glasgow graduate who had worked with Nernst, Rutherford and Soddy, was appointed to the Lee's Readership in Chemistry. Russell had already made fundamental discoveries in the field of radioactivity, and it is arguable that the term and concept of an "isotope" was originated by him.
Alexander Stuart Russell had been appointed Dr. Lee's Reader in Chemistry in 1919 and a Student of Christ Church in 1920. He had studied at Glasgow, and presumably spoke with a Scots accent to match.
