Placing first among the 416 midshipmen was John H. Wulfkuhle, Lawrence senior. William J. Martin, Eskridge, 1956 KU graduate, who was commissioned as ensign after the cruise, placed second. Third place went to Richard A. Butler, Lawrence senior. These tests are based on the demonstration of the midshipman's aptitude for service, including attentiveness, appearance, measure of academic work, and leadership in general academic excellence. Leone To Use AEC Funds For Radiation Damage Study Studies of radiation-induced damage to biological systems will be conducted at the University, under terms of a new contract signed with the Atomic Energy Commission. DR. CHARLES LEONE Charles A. Leone, associate professor of zoology, is the principal investigator on the project, for which the AEC has allotted $9,500 for the first year. Dr. Leone's plan is first to characterize protein activity from organs of normal, healthy animals, probably chickens. He will do this by using antibodies produced in rabbits against the proteins. By this means—called immunology—he also will be able to identify the proteins. These same proteins will be isolated from organs of animals made ill by radiation. Their activity with the antibodies will then be compared with the normal. Dr. Leone believes it is possible that anti-metabolites, or low-grade antibodies, are produced in animals in response to radiation. To test this of normal chickens and determine theory, he will grow cells or organs effects of extracts of organs from normal and irradiated animals on the cells. One of the purposes of the project is to classify proteins as radio-resistant or radio-sensitive. Another is to show how the proteins are changed chemically. Eventually, Dr. Leone hopes to show how the changes occur in the animal. A photographic exhibit entitled "Landscape Architecture Today" is now on display in Marvin Hall until Nov. 21. From research like this may come chemical therapy for radiation sickness, he believes. Landscape Photo Exhibit On Display The exhibit, sponsored by the California Redwood Assn., is being shown at various schools and museums throughout the country under the auspices of the Smithsonian Institute, Washington, D.C.
