The award, comprised of a gold medal, a citation and a $1,000 honorarium, was announced Wednesday, January 20, at the dinner for the 105 delegates to the 8th annual Conference on Fundamental Interactions at High Energy. Formal presentation ceremonies will be held some time in March, according to Dr. Behram Kursunoglu, director of the UM Center. Dr. Salam was selected for the high honor by the Scientific Council of the Center in recognition of his contributions in quantum electrodynamics, and in elementary particle physics, especially the two-component neutrino theory of parity violation in weak interactions, and in symmetry properties of elementary particles. The Prize was named as a tribute to the memory of Dr. Oppenheimer, distinguished American physicist who was a guiding spirit in the formative years of UM's Center for Theoretical Studies. First recipient in 1969 was Prof. P. A. M. Dirac, Nobel Laureate now with the UM Center as Distinguished Professor, who is regarded as the master of all physicists.

Alongside a picture of Holmes, the review read in part, “so well did production and opera blend, so superb the singing of baritone Eugene Holmes and soprano Claudia Lindsey in the lead roles, that sellout audiences erupted into shouting ovations at the end." The New York Times, Dec. 27, 1970 also reviewed the production and ran a photo of Holmes... Dr. David S. Smith, medicine, was chairman of a panel discussion at the Fourth Annual Winter Conference on Brain Research Jan. 16-23 in Aspen, Colo.... Dr. Grover A. J.
