...Crimson’s 5-2 win over Iona, some strong defensive play, anchored by Garcia, secured the close win. Harvard totaled 16 steals in the contest. The game was close until Harvard took a two-goal lead late in the contest. Freshman David Tune and sophomore Chris Ludwik each netted two scores in the game. Garcia had his hand in every goal scored, tallying five assists total. He reached three different players—Tune, Ludwick, and Voith—for goals in the crucial win. “When we have been successful, Mike has been the center...
...Lasker Foundation also handed out $5,000 awards for basic research to four of the country's leading cancer investigators. Dr. Ludwik Gross of The Bronx Veterans Administration Hospital was cited for his discovery of animal leukemia viruses. Dr. Sol Spiegelman of Columbia University was honored for the first successful synthesis of an infectious virus-like particle. Dr. Howard Temin of the University of Wisconsin was recognized for his studies of how viruses reproduce. Dr. Howard Skipper of Birmingham's Southern Research Institute was cited for his work in biochemistry and cell biology. Medicine is still far from...
...John J. Bittner showed that breast cancer in certain mice is transmitted by a factor, now accepted as a virus, in mouse mothers' milk. This led to the establishment of mouse "dairies," and the painstaking milking of tens of thousands of rodents. In 1951, Dr. Ludwik Gross of The Bronx Veterans Administration Hospital injected something (evidently a virus material) from leukemic mice into newborn mice, got a high incidence of leukemia and some odd tumors to which little attention was then paid...
...cancer cells of the type called Ehrlich sarcoma are ground up, made into an emulsion and injected beneath the skins of mice, the animals invariably die. Drs. Alexandre Besredka and Ludwik Gross of the Pasteur Institute in Paris made small, weak doses of finely minced sarcoma tissue, injected them not beneath but in the skins of mice. In most of the animals metastases (cancer colonizations elsewhere in the body) took place and death followed. But in 10% the skin tumor caused by the injection dried up and disappeared and thereafter the mice were immune to that type of sarcoma...
...embarrassing solution" was the work of Polish-born Relativist Ludwik Silberstein, 63, of Toronto. Albert Einstein, convinced that Nature is not divided into compartments, wants to confine charged and uncharged particles, gravity and light within a single geometrical framework. Some time ago he concocted relativistic field equations in which particles were treated as "singularities" in the field. Dr. Silberstein carried this out for a two-particle problem, found that, though all stress between the particles disappeared, they remained stationary. Since either Newtonian or Einsteinian gravity would require them to fall together, this seemed to be a reductio ad absurdum...
