his work, Dr. Hammond waselected to the National Academyof Sciences. He has been at Cal­tech since 1956 and is a profes­sor of organic chemistry. Hisappointment to the Noyes pro­fessorship was approved by theCaltech board of trustees, whichalso ratified three administra­tive changes disclosed today byDr. DuBridge.Other Changes

Drs. H. Frederic Bohnenblust,professor of mathematics anddean of graduate stUdies, andJesse L .. Greenstein, professor ofastroyphysics and staff memberof the Mount Wilson and Palo­mar Observatories, have beennamed as executive officers ofthe Division of Physics, Mathe­matics and Astronomy.

then launch full scale into adiscussion of the Improvisationwhich occupies him so greatlynow. His Views on this subjecthold great interest to anyoneconcerned with the relationsamong composer, performer andlistener, since he feels a stronginterrelationship to be evident,with improvisation as one of themain keys to it. In the evening,with a performance from hislatest work, Echoi, Mr. Foss willdemonstrate one of the finalcompositional products of hisimprovisational experimentation.Echoi, titled "for four virtuosi,"has been referred to as the mostdifficult work to perform in allof modern music. Joining withMr. Foss in our performancewill be Charles Delancey, per­cussion, John Neufeld, clarinet,and Beverly Lauridsen, cello.Mr. Foss will utilize this en­semble to the greatest extent indiscussing the c rea t ion andmeaning of Echoi. ~

Recapitulation (Thursday): Af­ter a session of open discussionon any questions which havebeen raised during his visit, Mr.Foss will join with three othermen skilled in the creative artsfor a look into the necessity formodern artists to have discardedtraditional values and forms andto have forged new paths alongthis new manner. The mem­bers of this Symposium will beMr. Foss, Dr. Maurice Walsh, apsychoanalyst with great interestin creative processes, Mr. Leo­nard Stein, well-known pianistand expert on Schoenberg, andMr. Walter Hopps, Director ofthe Pasadena Art Museum andexpert on modern artistic trends ..Hopefully this panel will be ableto treat a number of aspects ofthis question, including reac­tions to comments from the floor,so that by the end of Mr. Foss'visit some insight may begleaned into the types of newartistic creations being devel­oped and into the necessity fortheir development in order tosing "a new song."

Highlights Four Administrative Changes

President Lee A. DuBridge an­nounced today that Dr. GeorgeS. Hammond has been appointedArthur Amos Noyes Professor ofChemistry at the California In­stitute of Technology.

The chair is named for thedistinguished chemist, the lateDr. Noyes, who was one of thefounders of Caltech and who atone time served as acting presi­dent of the Massachusetts Insti­tute of Technology.Outstanding Research

Dr. Hammond, 42, was hon­ored with the appointment be­cause of his outstanding workin several areas of chemical dy­namics. He is especially activein the field of photochemistry,which he considers to be anenormously important means ofh a r vesting, transferring andstoring energy as well as a se­lective method of pro ducingchemical transformations.

Father William Lasser spoke inthe Y Lounge in Winnett Tues­day evening on Catholicism inthe second of the YMCA's serieson living world religions. Fa­ther Lasser, who was ordainedlast year at St. Bedes C.hurch,La Canada, is presently studyingfor his Masters degree in com­parative religions.Based On The Bible

The first thing about Catholic­ism, according to Father Lasser,in fact, the first thing aboutChristianity, is that it is a wayof life through a personal com­mitment to God. Catholicismbases its beliefs upon the Bible,which it considers to be inspiredas far as matters concerningGod. In this book, the Catholiccan find the preparations andprophecies concerning Christ, anaccount of the life and teachingsof C.hrist, and the early actionsof the Christians,

However, Father Lasser wasquick to point out that the Biblewas not inspired in matters ofscientific observation or othermatters not concerning God.The Bible was written in a lan­guage that the Hebrews and theearly Christians could under­stand and believe. Even so, thescriptures are hard to under­stand, and therefore, one needsan authority to intrepret theirmeanings. This is the reasonfor the existance of the Church.Church As Interpreter

The Church can trace its orig­on to about the second centuryAD acccording to Father Lasser,and through the years there hasbeen little change in the actualChurch doctrine, in spite of theoccasional corrupt leadership atvarious times. The most directsummary of Church doctrineis the A:postle's Creed. It can

Unfortunately, Caltech's otherrecently constructed building,the Booth Computing Center,did not receive an award at thedinner, because of some confu­sion on the part of the judgesas to the identities of some ofthe buildings being considered.The award intended for Boothwas presented instead to theWoods-Valentine Mortuary.

BY TIM HENDRICKSONA simulated kidnaping of a

student from San Marino HighSchool, January 8, by five LloydHouse freshmen, has m u s h­roomed into an incident demand­ing civil and Institute action.

Wednesday afternoon at 3:00the five freshmen - Mike Bee­son, Don Bell, Bill Bricken, SteveCard, and Del Ratzsch - enteredthe class which Jerry Simpson,a Lloyd House sophomore whohad flunked out of Caltech, wasattending. He had been enrolledsince Monday.

As had been planned twohours earlier, the five succeededin dragging Simpson out of theclassroom after a brief, realisticstruggle. The freshmen, underpursuit by a growing number ofhigh school stUdents, then es­caped in two cars waiting out­side.

According to Dr. Noel Lawr­ence, principal of San MarinoHigh, the incident led to no dis­continuance of classes scheduledfor the remainder of the after­noon.

The prank was soon disclosed,and the story later appeared inthe Pasadena Independent andwas broadcast on radio stationKRLA.

Blacker Foun­dation. The Foundation dedi­cated itself to the selection ofworld leaders to whom it wouldpresent its Award for Leader­ship toward World Improve­ment. The Foundation is fin­anced by anonymous contribu­tion both from members and out­siders. This year's award is thefirst annual presentation.Stunning Award

The award carries no monet­ary value, but is in the formof a medallion and a scroll de­scribing the recipient's contribu­tion toward world improvement.The medallion is to be a bronzemedal hung from a heliotropeand vermilion striped ribbon.The medal has on it an elephanthead with two swords stuckthrough it. Around the periph­ery will be the words: "If thelogs in the fireplace are madeof plastic, why don't they melt?"

Little has been heard fromthe German since the GermanConsul talked to Institute of­ficialdom. However, in a recentletter from "Ie Director du cabi­net, Republique de France,"General de Gaulle declined toaccept the Foundation's honorbecause of prior engagements,etc.

The Foundation is still hope­ful of presenting the award toAdenauer in the Beckman audi­torium sometime near April 1.

Editorials

After seemingly infinite debates on matters like a chapel,lighting, facilities, the stage and a rather unique architecture,canstruction is finally nearing completion on the new Beck­man Auditorium. Tech's student body has sorely needed a newauditorium for a long time, and though Beckman's facilitiesare a serious disappointment, it will still be used frequently byASCIT and various student organizations.

Unfortunately some of the powers that be (no one knowsexactly who for sure) have decided that Caltech men areincompetent to run the lights and audio equipment in Beck­man, and that this work must be done by B & G men at anyactivitiy held in the auditorium. This means paying at leasttwo B & G men either six or eight dollars an hour for an eve­ning performance or lecture.

Most of the school groups wishing to use Beckman aregoing to be small clubs with limited budgets. If the dramaclub wanted to present the ASCIT play there this year, forexample, three performances and two rehearsals in Beckmanwould cost them at least $100 in B & G salaries alone. Sincethe drama club operates on a marginal budget, usually losinga little money and depending on an ASCIT subsidy, these costsalone would eliminate Beckman for them. The same is trueof many other student organizations.

Techmen have been running the lights and sound at al­most every school function for years now, and have earned awell-deserved reputation for excellence. They are probablyjust as competent, if not more so, than the B & G men thenew ruling makes necessary. B & G can ever assure the safetyof the equipment by checking out those students who wish tooperate it, and okaying only those they feel are competent.

For the benefi t of Tech activi ties and in order to allowthe student body more access to Beckman, the restriction onstudents doing Iighting and audio work should be removedas soon as possible.

This week, as a new and inter­esting feature, and primarily be­cause of a lack of material, thiscolumn is presenting a real lifeepisode from the Syracuse Uni­versity Daily Orange.

Rea Turet, columnist for theDaily Orange, has found thatthere is a breed unique untoitself. That breed is a littleon the naive side and very muchon the impressionable side, thehigh school senior.

a the r investigators h a v eshown that one particular kindof leukemia, chronic lymphaticleUkemia, either is not inducedat all by radiation or requireslarger doses of radiation for itsinduction than do other forms ofleukemia. If the high death ratefrom leukemia in radiologistshad been due merely to moreaccurate diagnosis of this groupof diseases in radiologists thanin the general population, thenit can be calculated that threeor four of the 12 deaths fromleukemia in radiologists shouldhave been of the chronic lym­phatic type. Actually amongthe 12 deaths none was attri­buted to this type of leukemia.

In other words, all of the 12deaths ~re from leukemias be­longing to the types believed tobe inducible by radiation. HenceDr. Lewis concluded that radia­tion, rather than accuracy ofdiagnosis, is probably respon­sible for the high death ratefrom leukemia in radiologists.

Four deaths were attributedto aplastic anemia, where 0.2, orless than one death, would havebeen expected. Aplastic anemia,when it appears in radiationworkers, is probably usually afonm of leukemia known as aleu­kemic leukemia, in which thereis an excessive number of whitecells in the bone marrow butnot in the circulating blood.

There were five deaths frommUltiple myeloma, com paredwith one death expected. Mul­tiple myeloma is a cancer of theplasma cells-the cells whichmay make antibodies. This isthe first evidence that multiplemyeloma may result from radia­tion exposure, Dr. Lewis pointedout.

death rates from the diseasesamong radiologists cannot bedue simply to more accuratediagnosis in this group of med­ical specialists. It was shown

Dr. Lewis based his investiga­tion on the death certificates of425 American male radiologists,aged 35 to 74, who had died be­tween 1948 and 1961, and whowere certified by the AmericanBoard of Radiology.

The biologist found 21 deathsof radiologists from the threefatal diseases, whereas if thesespecialists had been subject tothe normal death rates for theirdiseases, only five deaths wouldhave been expected. '

Twelve To LeukemiaTwelve radiologists were re­

ported as dying of leukemia, al­though the number of suchdeaths expected on the basis ofdeath rates in the general pop­ulation would have been onlyfour. Leukemia is cancer of thewhite blood cells.

The study, by Dr. Edward B.Lewis of the Caltech Division ofBiology, was reported today bythe American Cancer Societywhich helped support the work.

Radiation Doses"Presumably the reason for

the high death rates among ra­diologists from leukemia, aplas­tic anemia and multiple myelo­ma is the accumulated dose ofradiation they receive in theiroccupation over the years," saidDr. Lewis. "These are diseasesof the blood-forming and lym­phatic systems which seem tobe very susceptible to damageby radiation."

The death rate from three fa­tal blood diseases is three to fivetimes higher among radiologiststhan among other men, a Cal­tech biologist has discovered.The higher death rate apparent­ly is due to the occupationalhazard of radiation.

Tech fell behind quickly at1:\-3 early in the game. By thetime eight mmutes had gone by,Oxy had amassed a healthy 20-7lead. This set the pattern forthe game as Oxy soon hadbrought the score to 38·19 with6:46 remaining in the half. Thisslow start for Tech seemed basedon many fundamental errors.The Tech ball-handling was mis­erable. The defense was veryslow and fell prey to numerousfast breaks. However, eventhese mistakes wouldn't havebeen so embarrassing had theTech shooting not been theworst all year. The margin atthe half was 23 points as Oxyled 44-21.

The second half seemed evenmore dismal as Oxy poured in­sult on injury. A 37 point leadwas opened up by the middle ofthe sceond half and the gameended with the same marginat 95·58.

Despite the poor showing, itmust be said that this Oxy teamwas the best the Tech team hascome up against all year. Oxydidn't really have height, buttheir relatively short playerss howe d amazing reboundingabilities. The zone press wasrelentless and probably had alot to say in the poor Tech show­ing.

Dick Burgess and John Tuck·er led Tech scorers with 13points.

Playing twice last weekend,the Tech basketeers dropped aclose one and got walloped inanother. On Friday night, theCHM squad outscored Tech by70-65 in a game marked by num­erous fouls and what seemedlike poor officiating. Tech seem­ed to get the worst of these callsas they scored five more fieldgoals than CHM, but were out·scored at the free throw lineby fifteen.OHM Gains Lead

Tech started slowly and CHMwidened a lead that was asmuch as seventeen during thefirst half. At the close of thehalf, though, Tech made a clos­ing surge and narrowed themargin to nine points at 40-3l.Only the sharpshooting of GaryDahlman and the inspired playof substitutes Charles Vinson­haler and Leon "Goose" Thom­sen kept the Beavers this close.

As the second half started,play slowed down and the Tech­men began to gnaw away at theCHM lead point by point untilthe score stood 58-54 in favorof CHM with a little more thanfour minutes remaining. Un­fortunately, the Techmen lostcontrol of the game at that pointand CHM quickly rattled off tenpoints to put the game on ice at68-54 with two minutes remain­ing. A closing surge by Techgot the margin down to five at70-65 at the final buzzer. SophJohn Tucker sparked the secondhalf rally and wound up with 11points. Dahlman led all Techscorers with 16 points.Give Me A Break

At Pomona on Saturday night,the game reminded one of theChristians being fed to the lions.Pomona unveiled a lethal fastbreak which, along with somevery cold Tech shooting (18%in the first half) enabled Pomo­na to open leads of 9-1, 17·5, 31­11, and 43·15.

Dabney tied the score in thesecond on Larry Yeagley's homerun only to have Blacker scorefour in their half of the inning.Blacker then added five more inthe third on a spree of defensivemiscues by Dabney.

With the score 13-6 going intothe last inning, Dabney pushedacross three and had a man atthird with one out.

Despite the high score, therewere some fine defensive playson both sides. Teigland struckout six while John Eastmentand GUy Jackson sparkled ondefense for the winners. JerryGowen also played a fine gamefor the losers.

In the game played on Tues­day, Ruddock played Page to a6-6 tie. RUddock, moving wellwith an offense highlighted byseveral double passes and goodprotection for the passer, Mur­ray Sherman, scored in the firsthalf. The Ruddock defense,headed by a very ham rushheld the Page offense to onlyone score. Page tied the scorelate in the first half, but couldnot get going in the second half.Ruddock muffed several scoringopportunities late in the gameand the game ended in a tie.

This Space

Could Be Yours

BY J. K. EVANSAll right, sports fans, since

it is no longer football season,we will still talk about football.In fact, we may talk about foot­ball all year long. There shouldbe more talk about football.Too many people waste timediscussing things like track,women, semi-infinite nonsingul­ar spaces, Tinkertoys, women,Bahai, Christine Keeler, women,Elizabeth Taylor, and g i r 1s,when they could better be in­vesting their time in the analy­sis of the sport of champions,football.Indecent Balls

I feel this is a dreadful failingin the current literature. Oncefootball season is over, every­body forgets about it un tilspring practice time. The sportspages are filled with pictures ofscrawny, anemic-looking fellowsl'unning around in their under­wear, trying to fit a round ballin a round hole (this in itselfis unnerving; everyone knowsthat round balls are indecent­the only aesthetic shape for aball is oblong) or else attempt­ing to outrun one another to thelocker room to get ready for theparty tonight, instead of pic­tures of fine, muscular speci­mens flexing their sternocleio­domastroidea in preparation todo violence upon the persons oftheir adversaries.

In fact, at this season of theyear, the doing of violence uponthe adversary seems to fall intomore or less ill repute. This, Ifeel, is another serious failing.When a fellow can't even releasehis aggression toward the littlewart who always steals the ballby pasting him in the chops witha good forearm, things have cometo a sorry pass. It is this sortof restraint upon the natural in­clinations and needs of the nor·mal red-blooded American boythat causes so many of today'sdeplorable crimes of violence.Feel Better Again

A fellow spends two hours be­ing frustrated at every turn,having the ball taken from himby both small agile men and tallclumsy ones; he cannot relievehis frustration by cheerfullybusting somebody in the chops;so he goes out after the gameand knocks over a liquor storeand right away he feels goodagain.

Who can blame the poor boyfor his natural need to releasehis inner tensions? He is, infact, avoiding neurosis by hisaction; were he merely to grinand bear it, he would be a seetheiing cauldron of tangled emo­tions, prone to kick dogs, snarlat little old ladies, and rape vir­gins just out of spite., Instead,he is a healthy, well-adjustedjuvenile delinquent. And allthis might have been avoided ifhe were just allowed to clobberthe little bum..Sport of Sports

And so, sports fans, remem­ber this: if you would save yourdogs from kicking, your littleold ladies from snarls, your li­quor from misappropriation, andyour daughters from a fateworse than death, you must actnow. Do away with these pseu­dosports and return to year­round prominence the sport ofstrength, skill, cleverness, andabove all, violence, football.

But he came to Cal tech's Jet Propulsion Laboratory on

purpose. How? When he was two months away from his

Ph. D., the JPL interviewer came to his school. Our Ph. D.-to­

be made it a point to see him. And he liked what he heard.

He heard how JPL scientists and engineers are designing

the spacecraft and instruments destined to drop in on our

moon and planets. He heard about the many facilities housed

at JPL's J50-acre Pasadena complex. And he found out about

the talented people he'd work with in space exploration.

Now we don't suggest that every Ph. D.-to-be we inter­

view will come to JPL. But we do suggest that such an

interview could be your opportunity of a lifetime.
