Aggarwal, as well as his mentor. Seismologist Lynn Sykes, thinks the change in wave velocity may be caused by the rapid opening of small cracks in water-saturated underground rock of the fault zone. Because P waves travel swiftly through water, they probably slow down when the voids appear. The S waves seem less affected by the fissuring. Then, as ground water seeps into the cracks, the P waves speed up again.

Weinberger will not only be HEW Secretary but will also supervise all of the "human resources" functions now scattered in various departments. James T.
