SCIENCE CLUB

The first meeting of the Science Club

was highlighted by discussion of the

work in the California Heart Associa–

tion Summer Research Program. An Oc–

tober meeting was devoted to a panel

discussion concerning the chemical struc–

tural pattern of heredity. A notable Janu–

ary gathering listened to Mother

Shaffer give a description of the ulti–

filtration of sodium dodecylsulfate and

subsequently saw a spectophometric

analysis to prove the postulate that ad–

ditives are absorbed by the aggregations

of ionic detergents.

Throughout the year speakers from

the various classes furnished talks on

many fields of interest. The annual low–

tide expedition to Bird Rock provided

both diversion and data.
