Dr. Albert SchatZ, 3S-year-Old
brilliant scientist of Fairview,
N. j. was honored in Seattle,
Wash, by the U. S. Junior Cham
Der Of Commerce, as one of the
10 outstanding young Americans
of 1858.
Now professor of microbiology
and director of the research
laboratories at the National Agri-
cultural College in Pennsylvania,
DR.. Schatz was co-discoverer with
Nobel Prize winner, DR.. Selman
Waksman of the wonder drug,
streptomycin.
An alumnus of Rutgers Uni
versity, DR.. Schatz was doing
graduate work at the college in
1943 when he and DR.. Waksman
discovered streptomycin, which
was born out of soil research.
Won Due Recognition
DR.. Schatz, however, had to
start legal action before he re-
ceived the recognition due him.
Three years ago, an out-of-court
settlement was reached between
DR.. Schatz and DR.. Waksman in
which DR.. Schatz was officially
acknowledged as the co-discov-
erer of the wonder drug and
rightfully entitled to share the
royalties which is estimated will
amount to about $625,000.
When the announcement was
made that DR.. Waksman was to
receive the Nobel Prize, a move
was started to have the noted
Rutgers University scientist, DR..
Waksman, share the award with
DR.. Schatz. It was pointed out
that in 1945, the Nobel Award
was shared by Sir Alexander
Fleming, DR.. Ernest Boris Chain
and Sir Howard Walter Florey as
the joint discoveries of penicillin.
However, no further action was
ever taken by the Caroline Insti-
tute of the University Of Stock
holm, Sweden, which makes the
awards.
Spent Youth in Passaic
DR.. Schatz was born in Nor
witch, Conn. His parents moved
to Passaic when he was two years
old. He attended Passaic public
schools, was given a religious
training and was bar mitzvahed
at the Adas Israel Synagogue in
Passaic.
