...always holds in breeding a dominant to a recessive. At the dawn of the 20th Century, Mendel's laws were dug up and made the basis of the science of genetics, which was also boosted through experiments on fruit flies by Thomas Hunt Morgan, now a venerable Nobel Prizeman at California Institute of Technology...
...Institute of Technology has accomplished a great deal in science. In 1932 he snapped the first picture of a positive electron. For this discovery he won the highest honor Science can bestow, a Nobel Prize. His pioneer positive electron photograph has become historic. In the Physical Review last week, Prizeman Anderson printed a snapshot of another kind of particle which may also become historic...
...Cecil spoke of his winning the Nobel Prize last week as "a feather in the cap of the League of Nations." Like many another British lord he has something of a weakness for the Nazis. "A plain, naked transfer of territory back to Germany would be difficult," said Nobel Prizeman Cecil last week. "I would favor the return of colonies [to Germany] being discussed...
Boyish, modest Dr. Anderson discovered the positive electron in 1932 and is now a Nobel Prizeman. In 1934, in an inconspicuous footnote, he hinted at the possible existence of a new particle. The dilemma which confronted him then was a choice between theory and observation. He was studying electrons which occur in cosmic rays. Such electrons are supposed to behave according to the Bethe-Heitler theory, which ascribes certain penetrating powers to electrons of certain velocities. Dr. Anderson's data showed that electrons did conform up to energies of 300,000,000 volts. Above that energy level there appeared...
Argentina for 50 years has been the leader of Latin-American efforts to have done with the Monroe Doctrine. Therefore this week 400 banquet guests in Buenos Aires audibly rustled and gasped with surprise as Argentine Foreign Minister Dr. Carlos Saavedra Lamas, recent Nobel Peace Prizeman (TIME, Nov. 30), not only praised the Monroe Doctrine but went on to deliver what cables soon called "the most laudatory speech made about the United States in any Latin-American country in the last generation...
