...Crick, visiting professor of explained his latest genetics to a spellbound, overflow of more than 400 at yesterday. Crick and J.D. Watson Professor of Biology, are the of the Watson-Crick model of acid DNA, considered one outstanding achievements...
Four young scientists were among the new professors promoted from within the faculty: James D. Watson, 32, a biologist well known for the Watson-Crick model of the structure of Desoxyribonucleic acid (DNA), a long-chain molecule which determines hereditary traits in living cells; Richard Wilson, 34-years-old expert in high energy physics; Arthur E. Bryson, Jr., 35, whose field is missile stability and reentry heating; and Bernard Budiansky, 35, who has studied the structural problems of supersonic missiles...
...workings of living creatures. Every living cell, including those of multicelled animals such as man, has in its nucleus large and complicated molecules that control growth and heredity. Except in some bacteria and viruses, these molecules are made of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA), which James Watson of Harvard and Francis Crick of Cambridge, England, found to be two long chains of atoms linked together and twisted spirally. The links between the two spirals, often many thousands of them, differ slightly and constitute a sort of code that carries information and controls the heredity of the cell...
...sports complex will feature a 25,000-seat main arena building completely free from the interior columns that give present Garden fans a frequent crick in the neck. The new design by Soapman- Turned-Architect Charles Luckman will achieve its pillarless view by what he calls "the first use in such a large structure of a compression ring"-steel cables imbedded in concrete that support the roof. Onetime president of Lever Brothers Co. (1946-50), Luckman now employs 336 planners, architects and engineers, currently has $202 million worth of construction work under way from missile research centers to Los Angeles...
...Britain's Maurice Wilkins and Francis Crick, and U.S. Biologist James D. Watson, for studies of the structure of the deoxyribonucleic (DNA) acid molecule, one of the principal elements in cell metabolism and in transmission of inheritable characteristics...
