Stubby Arms. Finally, during a 1963 visit to Germany, Turner mentioned his idea to Physicist Hans Meinke, a micro wave expert whose research is partially financed by the U.S. Air Force. Meinke immediately grasped Turner's concept, volunteered to work on it, and was awarded an Air Force contract. Now, after four years of mathematical analysis and laboratory work, he has finally built several prototype models of the mini-antennas that Turner visualized. The simplest of Meinke's devices, which the Air Force calls Subminiature Integrated Antennas (SIA), consists of three stubby, pencil-sized arms, each at tached...

...there is any victim in grantsmanship, it is not the Government or the foundations but the undergraduate student. To the professor tied up in the pursuit of research funds, teaching may seem like an unpleasant interruption in his real career. One U.C.L.A. physicist, for example, contends that "a professor who gets three or four men through to their Ph.D. via research is achieving far more than he can by lecturing to a hundred freshmen all year." The nation's 1.5 million freshmen are not likely to agree-until they, too, some day need a grant...

...superconducting accelerator has already set Physicist Wolfgang Panofsky, director of Stanford's SLAC, to thinking ahead. The new accelerator does not actually make SLAC obsolete, he says, but it "might be wise," as early as 1970, to examine the possibility of converting the big machine to a superconducting accelerator...
