FleId TrIn


On Tuesday, March 29, the Chem
istry and Physics classes made a
field trip to the Du Pont experiment
tai laboratories in Wilmington. The
tour began with a moving picture
which showed the many different
types of work being done in the lab
oratories.
The students then visited some
typical laboratories where the en-
gineers and technicians explained
their equipment and what was be-
ing done.
The Layosier library with its
thousands of technical books and
periodicals written in English and
in many foreign languages was very
interesting. Many of the students
found the Glass Blowing Depart
ment interesting and amusing.
BY far the most outstanding
phase of the trip was the visit to
the large Engineering Radiation
Physics Laboratory.
The trip was sponsored and con-

NEW YORK, Sept. 15.-
"The AquanautsP splashed and
bubbled its way into the CHS
channels last night and this
is an action series.
During the so minutes Of

Honors for the Atlas

Earthbound mans efforts to explore
the skies have made dramatic progress
since the late Robert J. Collier, maga-

nautical achievements in 1911. That
was the era of the pioneering flights OF
the Wright brothers in their chain
driven propeller biplanes Of wood, cloth
and wires How far "aeronautics' has
come since those days is evident from
the fact that the coveted award, gen.
orally regarded as the highest in avia-
ton, has been extended to cover prog
ress in astronautics, the term now being
used to denote flying into space.
It is not surprising, therefore, that
the latest Collier award has gone jointly

Not the Solution

While full details of the proposal
by a House District subcommittee for
reorganization Of the Juvenile Court are
yet to be announced, one Of the major
recommendations is said to be the trans
fer to District Court of delinquency
cases involving juveniles over 16. II
such a recommendation should be in
cluded in the final report it ought to be
rejected summarily by Congress. It Is
no solution of the over-burdened Juve-
nile Courts problems to shift to the also
over-burdened District Court all cases
involving 17-year-olds and 18-year-olds,
including minor offenses not properly
within the Jurisdiction Of an adult
criminal tribunal.
1t is right, Of course, that the Juve-
nile Court should send to the District
Court, by the waiver process, juvenile
cases of particularly fiagrant nature.
II teen-ager behaves like an adult
criminal, he deserves to be tried not as
a juvenile delinquent but as an adult
criminal Judge Ketcham of the Juve-
nile Court has not hesitated to waive
numerous such cases to the District
Court, even though the latter court is
having difficulty in coping with its
bulging dockets. We are sure the Dis
trict Court would not relish the idea Of
taking on, in addition, lot of minor
cases normally handled by the Juve-
nile Court. s,
The reported plan of the subcom-
mittee for reducing the maximum age
limit for Juvenile Court defendants from
l8 to 16 was one of several proposals
considered in lieu Of Senate approved
bill to add two judges to the Juvenile
Court. Until the whole plan is made
public it may be well to reserve comment
on its other reported recommendations,
including merger of the Juvenile Court
with the Municipal Court. It would be
utterly wrong, however, If II and 18-
year-oldS who commit minor offenses
should be classified with and treated
like adult criminals And we still think
that the best solution of the Juvenile
Courts docket troubles is the addition
of two judges to help harassed Judge
Ketcham keep pace with the caseload.

WSTAS IN SCIENCE
Clinical Report on Youth Hormones'
BY THOMAS R. HENRY

the substance contains the
hormone, the emerging insect
will tend to resemble a larger
immature instead Of an adult
insect. Giant insects have
been produced in this way.
In DR.. Williams latest
studies extracts from human
placenta were among the
most active in preventing
silkworm metamorphosis.
Other mammalian tissues
which yielded the substance
were thymus. adrenals, bone
marrow, tests. ovaries. liver.
pituitary and muscle. No ac-
tivity was found in wheat
germ oil. soy bean oil, brew
er's yeast or powdered skim
milk, although cream showed
some slight activity.
THE whole idea OF a ju-
venile hormone, which can
delay maturity or aging with
out interfering with growth
has haunted some of us for
years." DR.. Williams reports.
In view of the extraordinary
biological activity Of this hor-
none on growth, metamor-
phosis and aging of insects, it
seems important to- decide
whether the juvenile hor-
none may play a part in
mammal physiology or
whether its presence in the
higher forms is something of
a biological curiosity"
Brain Stimulates Noting
There must be some good
reason, he believes, for the
existence of this potent
youth preserver in higher
animals, although its func-
ton may be quite different
than in insects.
Something in the brain of
an insect that stimulates the
process of molting which
makes possible step-wise
growth is very similar to, if
not identical with, the juve-
nile hormone, it is reported
by DR.. Lawrence Gilbert of
Northwestern University and
DR.. Howard Schneiderman
of Cornell. They also have
been working under NH
sponsorship.
They report that a gland
in the middle segment of an
insects body. the prothoracic
gland, which is actually re-
sponsible for molting can be
stimulated to its molt-pro-
ducing activity by injections
of purified juvenile hormone
extracted from moths.

On the Job

New Jerseys ratification of the con-
stitutional amendment to let Washing
tonians vote for President and Vice
President is moving at slower-than-
expected pace, repeatedly because Of
indifference" In the State Senate.
Initial disappointment at these reports,
however, is more than offset by the vigor
and efficiency Of efforts here to rekindle
interest in the Jersey legislature.
Carl L. Shipley, the head Of the
Republican Party in the District, already
has asked permission to address a
Republican caucus of New Jersey sena-
tors in Trenton on December 10. Repre-
sentative Widnall, strong advocate of
the amendment and former member of
the State legislature, graciously has
offered to accompany Mr.. Shipley And
while the Democratic senators are un-
derstood to favor the amendment al,
ready, w. John Kenney, chairman of the
District Democratic Central Committee,
intends also to visit the New Jersey
capital If that should be necessary.
These developments are clear and
encouraging evidence that the leaders Of
the Districts political parties intend to
play active roles in the ratification cam
paign, and their participation will be in
dispensable. AS, sessions of the various
legislatures convene next year, the diff
fculty now being experienced in New
Jersey can be expected to recur with
unfortunate frequency. Instances Of
active opposition to the amendment will
be the exceptions. The problems Of
apathy, indifference and misundeTstand-
ing, however, will be very real hurdles,
and great deal of hard work will be
required to overcome them.
The American Heritage Foundation
commercially has included the District
drive for suffrage in national educa-
ton campaign it will conduct next year
to stimulate reforms in national election
laws. This should help. The basic
impetus, however, must come from the
District, through such efforts as Mr..
Shipley and Mr.. Kenney already are
making in New Jersey.

Cobinet-Mokers

The story is going the
rounds that President-elect
Kennedy is not going to ap-
point Adlai Stevenson Secre-
tary Of State because MIR.
Stevenson Is an idealist and
stubborn. A consequence
might be, 1t is said. that
President Kennedy and Sec
retary Of State Stevenson
might differ seriously in the
formulation or execution of
particular foreign policies.
resulting in the resignation Of
Stevenson or his being fired.
1t Is added that this would be
embarrassing to President
Kennedy as the younger of
the two. In a word, the new
administration. If it makes
use of Stevenson, wants him
in a position in which he
carries out the orders of
others. not originating the
orders himself.
1t is to be hoped that the
above story Is not true. 1t i'm
plies that President-elect
Kennedy plans to be his own
Secretary Of State. The Presi-
dent Is responsible under the
Constitution for the conduct
Of foreign affairs. But that Is
far from having the daily
duty Of formulating or exc
cutting policies. keeping
abreast Of American and
United Nations activities the

ing the State Department

and employees here and
abroad. Next to the Presi-
dent. today's Secretary OF
State Is the most vitality i'm

eled in South America,

spected. In addition, he was

nee for President in 1852 and

among all classes of Ameri-
