cally, economically, militarily, and in foreign relations will be discussed by Dr. Swearingen.
At Crossroads “Japan at the Crossroads” is Dr. Swearingen’s sub-topic on the panel.
“Since Japan and the USSR are negotiating in London for the reopening of diplomatic relations, some people w’onder if this means Japan is preparing to work more closely with Russia and Communist CTnina,” he said.
Dr. Swearingen says that along with Germany, Japan is the key area in the next ten years.
Significant Nation “Considering population, technological know-how, potential or even demonstrated military capacity, Japan must be ranked among the most significant nations,” he says.
“Neutralizing Japan to separate her from the US and including Japan in the Communist Block, by favorable trade relations, is the plan in the minds of tho USSR delegates as they go into the peace negotiations in London,” according to Professor Langer, who will talk on the “Soviet Policy toward Japan.
Japanese Response Langer w'ill talk tomorrow on the Japanese response to these overtures by the Soviet Union, and to what extent Japan’s re-(Continued on Page 4)

'ore than 50 friends and associates of Dr. Harry J.

The portrait, painted by Abel G. Warshawsky, was accepted by President Fred D. Fagg Jr. on behalf of the university. The portrait was unveiled by Dr. Stanley R. Townsend, assistant doan of the Graduate School, and Dr. Roslyn B. Alfin-Slater, assistant professor of biochemistry.
Dr. Deuel, who has been dean for six years during his 26 years j at SC, expressed his appieciation I to the contributors to the Deuel Portrait Fund.
The artist is an American who has lived in Paris for over 30 years. His paintings of French peasants, Paris street scenes, and notable Americans have been purchased by some of the great HARRY J. DEUEL est art galleries of Europe and
• friends honor America.
Chemists Need Ping pong Balls To Make Atoms
Have you any cracked table tennis (ping pong to some people) balls lying around the house?
The SC chemistry department wants them to use in making models demonstrating the structure of atoms and molecules. The models are use in classroom teaching.
A previous request resulted in a donation of 500 such spheres, the private collection of Milt Forrest of the U.S. Table Tennis Association in Hollywood.
He had been saving them in the hope thal some method of repairing them could be found. When this proved impossible, he gave them to Dr. Jerry Donohue, associate professor of chemistry at SC, to whom the table tennis balls should be sent.
SC address is University Park, Los Angeles 7 California.
CIT Biology Prof To Tel! of Code System in Cells
Development of the human body can be compared to the development of a recipe, Dr. George W. Beadle will show students faculty this morning at 11 when he speaks in the Bovard General Assembly on “Molecules, Heredity, and Evo- . lution.”
Dr. Beadle, professor of biology from California Institute of Technology, will use the recipe analogy and latern slide chart illustrations to explain the development of genetic material from a chemical standpoint of molecular structure.
In Code Genetic material is carried in a molecular code in the form of chemical submicroscopic telegraphic tape,” he says. “In fact one cell in the human vein has enough coated information in this tape to fill 1000 volumes of the Encyclopedia Britannica.
This genetic material, he says, is like a recipe for food only in this case for human beings.
Miniature Retype Each fertilized egg contains a miniature recipe, which is followed in development. This recipe is copied when the cell divides, so that the offspring gets a set of recipes, one from each parent, he explains.
“Mistakes or typographical errors are sometimes made in copying the recipe or in the mutations of genetics, in which case the results can be either good or bad,” he 6ays.
Doesn’t Always Show If the result is bad. sometimes it will not show, since the stronger, good recipes will overshadow it, but even then the faulty recipe will be passed on to the next generation, he explains.
“Usually the bad result is a less desirable individual, while the good result represents evolutionary progress in the development i of man,” he says.
Busriders
Graduate Tea
The third iu the weekly series of Graduate Teas will be held Wednesday from 3 until 5 p.m. in the Graduate Lounge in Town and Gown basement.
