HEADLINE PERSONALITY
New Science Adviser
Adept at Team Play

PRINCETON, N. j., Nov. 8
A).-"He's a great competi-
tor. He's adept at handling
people and getting q team op-
Grafton going. He's an excellent
organizer, but not one Of those
efficiency boys"
This Is an appraisal Of DR..
Donald ?. Hornig by one Of his
colleagues on the Princeton
University faculty. DR.. John
TI1rkevicn.
DR.. Hornig, 43, was named
President Kennedy's new spe-
cial assistant for science and
technology yesterday. The
President also nominated him
to be director Of the Office Of
Science and Technology, a $22,-
500-a-year post.
The stocky, 5-foot-l0 chair
man Of the Princeton ehemis-
try department sees his new
job in Washington as a scien-
tific rather than political one.
No Stranger to Job
He is no stranger to the post,
having served for more than
three years in an advisory
capacity under the man he
succeeds, DR.. Jerome B. Wies-
ner, who is returning to the
Massachusetts, Institute of
Technology.
DR.. Hornig doesn't forsee any
immediate changes from the
way DR.. WieSner ran things.
"Wiesner did a first rate
job" DR.. Hornig said in an in
terview. But the scientific and
chronological problems of the
country will continue and they
will change and I'll have to
change with them.
II think the central issue for
me will be to determine how we
can maintain a healty scientif-
ic and chronological establish
ment and how to establish the
level Of Government support.
Science, after all, depends on
ideas, which lead to new pro-
cesses. better defenses and a
more healthy country"
Plays Violin
When able TO steal some free
hours from his university and
governmental duties-he has
been a member of the Presi-
dents Science Advisory Com
mittee since former President
Eisenhower appointed him in
1960-Dr. Hornig plays the
violin, enjoys a good game of
tennis and skis every other
winter in a poor sort of way"
He also enjoys q good game
Of football--from the grand
stand.
But I suspect my children
love it more" he says. !
DR.. Hornig lives with his
wife, Lilli, AZ, and their four
children in Princeton. Mrs.
Hornig also has a doctorate in
chemistry.

Dummy's Trumps
Assure Control
BY ALFRED SHERWOOD

One advantage of having four
trumps in the dummy as we'll
as four in your own hand is
that you can keep control with
either hand. For example, If
you run out of trumps in your
own hand, you can often keep
enough in dummy to control
the play.

Opening lead: Trey Of hearts.
South wins the first trick
with the ace of hearts and be-
gins on his clubs by finessing
the queen around to East's
king. This is a sound move,
for 1t usually pays to develop
the side suit first when there
are holes in both of the prin-
cipal suits.
East returns a heart, forcing
South to ruff. Declarer leads a
club to dummy's ace and re-
turns a trump for a firesse,
losing the 10 to Vests queen.
West returns another heart,
forcing South to ruff with the
jack. Now South is down to the
ace of trumps alone, and his
knees would be knocking with
fright except for the fact that
dummy still has three trumps.
Draws Another Round
South draws another round
of trumps with the ace. When
the suit breaks normally, this
leaves one trump out. South
has no trumps left, but dummy
still has two trumpS.
Declarer begins to run his
clubs, diScarding diamonds
from the dummy. The opponent
with the last trump may ruff
whenever he likes, but that will
be the last defensive trick.
South can then regain the lead
with the king of diamonds to
discard more diamonds from
the dummy on his own good
clubs.

Is a ghastly suit. but you don't

points in high cards. There is
something to be said for a re-
Spouse of one diamond. but bid
ding a three-card suit tends to

University Votes Boost
In Medical Enrolment

BALTIMORE, May 4 (AP) -
The University of Maryland
Board of Regents adopted a
resolution yesterday recon-
mending a II per cent increase
In the university's medical
school enrolment by 1871.
The board action was in re-
sponse to a State Planning
Commission report which cited
the States critical need for
doctors in the coming decade
To meet the recommended in
crease, university officials said,
additional basic science facili-
ties are needed at a cost of
approximately $3.3 million.
If provided, the starting med
ical school class in 1871 would
be $50 students as compared
with 1913 last September.
Could Exceed Need
A report of a board OF re-
gents subcommittee indicated
that If the $50 goal is met, and
Johns Hopkins University also
increases its medical school
program. the output of physi-
clans by 1875 would exceed the
number which studies show are
needed for Maryland to meet
national requirements.
In another action. the board
voted to establish a graduate

DR.. Wilson H. Elkins, univer-
sity president, recommended
the school He said it would be
run at the library building on
the College Park campus. and
would not require additional
structures.
The board also ordered up
dating of previous studies on
the possibility of establishing
branches of the university.
Need for Branches
DR.. Elkins has said priority
would be given to selecting a
site and planning a branch in
Baltimore County. In March,
the board called for establish
ment of a branch there.
Gov. Tawes said Thursday he
would approve the expenditure
of 100000 to begin planning
for the branch campuses. al
though he has not yet acted on
the budget.
Last Tuesday, the Governor
signed into law a bill to au-
thorize the university to estab-
lish branches in Baltimore
County, Southern Maryland,
Western Maryland and on the
Eastern Shore. The law is not
effective. however, until June
of 1864.

Attorney Louis Nizer came
down from New York yesterday
and told the United States Dis
trict Court in Washington II
ought to start an across the
board investigation into Amer
ican press coverage Of crimi-
nal proceedings.
Mr.. Nizer was representing
gossip columnist Igor Cassini.
The attorney charged that the
Justice Department had leaked
secret grand jury testimony to
The Saturday Evening Post,
which Mr.. Nizer said used the
testimony three weeks before
the indictment was made pub
lie.
Mr.. Cassini, who wrote the
Cholly Knickerbocker column
for the Hearst newspapers, was
indicted on charges OF failing
TO register as an agent for the
former Trujillo regime OF the
Dominican Republic.
He was indicted on February
8. The Post article entitled,
Boswell OF the Jet Set" was
published on January 10. It
was written by Peter Mas.
Calls Data Duplicated
Mr.. Nizer said the article
"meticulously" duplicated the
information in the grand jjury
indictment. He further charged
that the Justice Department
not only gave Mr.. Mas the se-
cret testimony, but later edited
the story 10 conform with the
grand jury evidence.
Judge william b. Jones post
poned a decision on the motion
TO dismiss the indictment on
the grounds that grand jury
secrecy was violated and gave
Mr.. Nizer a week TO 10 days TO
produce more evidence OF the
charges.
Judge Jones also granted a
postponement OF the trial from
May TO october because OF the
recent death OF Mr.. Cassini's
wife.
