The Investigators used $40
mice. The animals were SUBJ

dioactive strontium, the prin-
cipal long-range hazard which
comes from the debris of uran-
ium or plutonium fission bombs.
Mice given the heaviest doses

intermediate doses produced
many tumors in the lymph
glands and bones Of the ami
mails. The highest dose. the re-
searchers said. was 10 times the
presently prescribed safe dose
for humans working with
atomic materials.
Calculating the average e
amount needed to shorten a
mouse lifetime was a problem
but it seemed to be the most
sensitive measure Of radiation
effect, the investigators re-
ported.
This dose turned out to be
about twice the supposedly safe
dose for man and about 1000
times the most pessimistic esti-
mate Of current human con-

Heav'sRo|e
In Crime Told
By SOcio|ogist

The heavy" police term
for the armed robber. consid- :
ers himself a "precocious Grim
inal" who would rather "bur-
giarize than go to a dance. +"
That's the view of DR.. Nor
man s. Hayner o fthe Univer-
sity of Washington, one of
1900 sociologists attending the
SD annual meeting of the
American Sociological Society
at the Shoreham Hotel. The
convention ends today.
The sociologist said the work
OF the heavy is plaguing the
entire United States, which he
characterized is having one of
the highest rates of armed
robbery in the world.
No Way Of Telling
There is no way of telling
how any particular heavy is
going to go about doing his
job," DR.. Hayner said. "As a
result there is no way of telling
people who might be in for an

ent occupations and. though I
happen to doubt 1t, 1t Is possible
that quarrelsorne or conten-
tious personalities tend to be
attracted to science and re-
cruited into It,"
Nations. he said, as well as
individuals, have attempted to
claim credit for scientific dis
coveries.
DR.. Merton referred to the
recent propensity of the Rus
slams to claim priority in all
manner Of inventions and SCI
entific discoveries" and COM
mented:
The restraint often shown
by individual scientists in
making such claims becomes
wholly inconspicuous when
ofhcial or self-constituted re-
presentatives Of nations put in
their claims"
DR.. Merton said it appears
that the institution of science
Incorporates potentially incom-
patible values. Among these he
stated. are the value of org
inality. which leads scientists
to want their priority to be
recognized. and the value Of
humility, which leads scientists
to insist on how little they have
been able to accomplish.
Manifestations Of Extremes
At the extremes, he said. are
hoaxes and forgery.
DR.. Merton pointed out, how
ever, that scientific research
is typically, If not always. under

He would outline the bound-
aries on a map and make
sketches Of the houses, noting
ways of entry and exit.
HE steals money only" DR..
Hayner said.
Il would rather burglarize
than go to a dance, read a coed
book, or anything else" DR..
Hayner quoted the man as say
ing. "The bigger and tougher
the job, the better I like it,"
He had a gun in his possess

gard them as mere expressions
Of human nature. On this view,
egotism is natural to the spe-
cies and scientists, being hu-
man, will have their due share,
sometimes expressing their
egotism through self-aggrand-
izing claims to priority"
Then, he said. there are
those who hold that inciina-
tions toward egotism are found
among some men.
This theory assumes, he re-
marked, that-like other occu-
pations-science attracts some
ego-centered men. And, he
said, it might even attract
many such people. who. hum

profession which promises en-
during fame to the successful. T"

great scientists Of the last three
centuries have been involved in
scientific disputes.
DR.. Merton cited disputes in
volving such. noted scientists as
Charles Darwin. August Comte.
Sigmund Freud and Sir Everard
Home.
"These controversies" he
said, .'far from being a rare
exception In science, have long
been frequent, intense and ugly.
They have become an integral
part Of the social relations be-
tween scientists"
DR.. Merton said at first glance
the frequent conflicts over
priority of discoveries seem to
be merely the consequence Of
men having made the same
discoveries simultaneously. 7"
But. he added. the matter
does not appear to be so simple.
"One explanation Of these
disputes" he said. would re-

attack how to detect the po-
tential robber."
He said, however, that, "A
fellow tends to get in a rut
and will continue to use the
same methods. 1t is here when
police should move in and let
people know about it so they
may watch out for the modus
operandi."
In defining Patterns in
Prison Backgrounds" DR.. Hay
ner said. "The heavy conceives
himself as a criminal and has
many contacts with other Of

He will study many cases of
robbery to see how he can

One of the cases studied by
the University of Washington
group dealt with a robber who
had spent eight years of his
youth in a private disciplinary
school where he got quite a
kick out of rummaging through
the contents Of other boys
rooms" He had served 10
years in a reformatory and two

Shortens Life of Mice

PALO ALTO. Calii., Aug. 20
R).-It takes about 1000 tiries
as much radiation as there is
in fallout to shorten the life of
a mouse, a team OF investigators
for the Atomic Energy Com
mission reported today.
There are many possible err
rors in this calculation, the
researchers said. but it gives
a quick picture Of what might
be expected. They used mice
because of their normally short
life span-two to three years
and because they could work
with hundreds OF them instead
Of with a few larger animals.
