Dubridge, president of the California Institute of Technology, today reviewed the institutions 1840 achievements and observed there is "consider able cause for worry" that sci ence faces strangulation and sup pressed ireedom. "Wartime success of Ameri can scientists in developing new military weapons has apparently left a widespread illusion that the chief function of science is to evolve weapons of war," he said. Basic Science To Lose He said this has given the pub lic the idea that the federal gov ernment is amply paying for sci entific research, but that actu ally the government scientific functions are basically mili tary the military establishment and the atomic energy commis sion. The result, he declared, gives rise to two dangers: 1. Basic science will lose out when competing for funds with military projects. 2. Basic science will fall vic tim to secrecy restrictions which "necessarily pervade military weapon development programs. "An excellent way to stifle science is to cut off its source of support," Dubridge warned. "A still better way is to supress its freedom by the imposition of unnecessary secrecy regulations. When both dangers appear si multaneously there is consider able cause for worry. Frtllv for Sonne ... hprnme brittle, aging the vie- " ' O ;r. J ;.ln. .n nrlV I (till IIU jjcumiJa i-ouoinB ' death.

The United Press erroneously reported that the court was told the divorce was obtained on grounds Rossellini was under the influence of drugs during tne marriage ceremony, The question of drugs did not come up in the Turin court pro ceedings and attorneys for both Rossellini and his former wife, Marcella, denied the report. The drug report was published by the newspaper Gazzcta Del Populo of Turin. The United Press dispatch was erroneous in making it appear that the ques tion came up in court. Gable And Bride Return To States San Franclscol Jan. 14 (U.R) Movie Star Clark Gable brought his twice-titled ex-mannequin bride home from a honeymoon in Hawaii today and headed for "a quiet life" on his San Fer nando valley ranch. The bride, the former Lady Sylvia Stanley Ashley, declared their two-week stay in the is lands was "simply wonderful." "He's still the great Clark Ga ble my husband." she said, giv ing him a big smile. He smiled when a reported 19-Ounce Baby Born To California Pair Torrance, Cal., Jan. 14 (U.R) A baby so tiny that doctors fear ed tn weigh her. was "kickina land crying" in an incubator to day. She was estimated to weigh 19 ounces. The infant, Kathryn Elizabeth Hlncklev. was born Thursday night. She is the third child of A. W. and Frances Hinckley, l.o mita, Cal. Dr. Kurt T. Sherv. the attend ing physician, estimated she was no longer than 11 incnes and said her head would fit into an ordinary water glass. "But the baby is definitely holding her own," Dr. Shery said. "We won't feed her for 48 hours, and if she lives that long her chances will be reasonably good." Mite-sized Kathryn was born two and a half months prema turely, but her mother's condi tion was reported gooo. asked If they plan to have a baby. "Of course." he said. "Every body like children." Less than a thousand fans were on hand at pier 32 when the Lurline docked at 9 a. m., in contrast to the near-riot crowd that saw the Gables off two weeks ago. The size of the police detail at the pier indicated more people had been expected. Technicians have discovered that burning several "king size" wooden matches in quick succes sion tends to overcome cooking or other odors. The matches give off sulfur dioxide, which dis guises unpleasant odor.

McAndrews Road Phone 2-5271 . - This Is INTERNATIONAL Printing Week THE newspaper you have in your hand, the magazine you will scan presently, the text book your child studies, the billboard on the highway: all these represent the coordinated effort of a sizable group of people. All the various arts and crafts of the printing industry have been brought into play. The process requires a remarkable amount of skill, devotion and planning. Far more complex than the processes necessary in many other industries and activities, yet is regarded as commonplace and ev eryday because it is so familiar. So familiar as to be disregarded. Few of us realize that printing is one of the chief tools for communication between humans. It plays an indispensable role in our modern civilization; in the dissemination of news, in the expression of po litical ideals and ideas, in the records of commerce and industry. It broadens the scope of everything it touches; it is vital to the upbuilding and sustain ing of business through advertising. And so it is appropriate that those industries and business fields related to the art of printing are pausing this week, International Printing Week, January 15-21, to honor the printers. It is appro priate too, that the birthday - Benjamin Franklin occurs within the week of t' celebration, because that great founding father of our country was wont to describe himself as "that humble printer of Phil adelphia . . ."
