HURRICANE tut. Nnrs Hit*
A Theoretical Studies Center is being formed at the University of Miami this summer to serve as a meeting place for world scientists. It will provide facilities for research and offer opportunities for an exchange of scientific information on an international scale.
These visiting professors will remain at the Center from one month to a year. In addition to their own study they will lecture
All is not study, this summer session as UM students are taking full advantage of the opportunity to enjoy Miami's new student Union.
The activities in the Union have been expanded since the end of the last semester, according to Norman “Chink” Whitten, director of the student union. Activities on the union’s schedule in coming weeks include, a dance on the patio tonight with the Art Giles Orchestra from 8:30 p m. to midnight.
Plans are now being formulated for a Tuesday Night “International Record Hop.” This will present an opportunity for students to bring their favority records from their native lands.
The 1964 Homecoming Queen, Miss Judy White, will teach swimming to beginners on Tuesday. Wednesday, and Thursday afternoons from 2:00 pm. to 4:00 pm. During the summer. Miss White is serving as Asst Program Director of Union. Interested
graduate students and help supervise graduate projects.
Two of the scientists arriving in September are Dr. J. Robert Oppenheimer of Princeton's Institute for Advanced Study, and Dr. Willis E. Ijunb. a 1955 Nobel laureate from Yale. Dr. Oktay Sinanoglu, a quantum chemist, is already on campus. Dr. Cavid Erginaoy, a solid-state physicist from the Brook-haven National laboratory in-Long Island. New York, is also expected.
students should register by Tuesday, June 29, 1965 at the Pool Desk There is no charge for the lessons, however each student must pay for pool privilege.
Tennis lessons are now being given free by the union staff on Monday and Wednesday, from 7:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. Gregory Peck starring in “To Kill a Mockingbird” will inaugurate the summer movie schedule. The movie will be shown on July 1.
Mr. Whitten, commenting on children at the union said, “Children are guests of the student, faculty member or member of the administration. There are certain hazards such as the lake and the pool, therefore the union must ask that children eleven years old and under, be accompanied by a parent. Children 12 and over may bring a note from their parents certifying their degree of swimming competence, safety awareness, and permit to attend without presence of the parent.”
Dr. Bchram Kursunoglu, a UM professor of physics, will serve as director of the Center. A leader in the field of theoretical \ high energy physics, Dr. Kursunoglu has written a reference on the quantum theory which has been translated into 30 languages, including Russian.
Although emphasis will be on physics at the beginning, biologi-■ cal scientists, scientific historians and philosophers, and chemists and mathematicians arc expected.
Also in the near future will be appointments of two or three permanent members for the Center.
A 10-man Scientific Council is now being formed to supervise the Center’s development and recommend future appointments Five UM faculty members and five noted scientists will compose the Council.
The five scientists, all partici-! pants in the university's annual high energy physics conference, have been named.
They are Dr. Gerson Gold-haber, from the University of California; Dr. Morton Hamer-mesh. from Argonne (111) National Laboratories; Dr. Yoichi-ro Nambu, from the University of Chicago; Dr. Robert E. Marshak, from the University of Rochester; and Dr. Julian Schwinger, from Harvard University.
The recommendations for the UM’s Council members will be submitted in the fall. Dr. Eugene H. Man, UM’s research coordinator. will be executive secretary of the Scientific Council. Dr Arnold Permutter, an associate professor of physics, will coordinate the program for the Center.
$600,000 Aid Increase For Med School
To help alleviate the rising cost of medical school, the State of Florida, on May 28, voted to increase its annual subsidy to the UM med school by almost $600,-000. Medical students residing in the state of Florida arc presently receiving $3500 per student per year. This increase would raise this figure to $4500
Operating for 13 years, the UM medical school has graduated 566
MD.’s.
Officials of the university also point out that they are presently in a campaign to raise an additional $22 million from private donors and federal agencies for the construction of added medical school facilities.
According to University of Miami President Dr. Henry King
Stanford, “The national ratio of physicians to population is one to 700. In the past 13 years, the UM medical school has provided Florida with physicians for 400,-000 people. All concerned with the health of our Florida citizens are fully aware of the rapidly rising costs of medical education. Certainly Florida citizens are entitled to the best that can be provided.”
The Women’s Cancer Association of the University of Miami has also aided the UM School of Medicine by awarding five summer research fellowships.
The research grants totaling $3300 will enable five medical students to work on research projects with UM medical researchers in biochemistry, microbiology, anastesia and sur-
gerv.
CHARACTERS ARE SHOWN from the play “As You Like It,” which will inaugurate the 1965 Summer Shakespearean Repertory Theatre. For further details, see story on page 4.
