Oregon State Dean Says Scientists Made of Curiosity - Corvallis What makes a scientist and how can young people know if they have the "makings? Scientists are made from curiosity, energy, and educa tion, Dr. F. A. Gilfillan, dean of science at Oregon State college, says. Young people have the mak ings of scientists if they have an interest, a curiosity that wants to know the "how" and "why" of things, and if they're willing the prepare themselves through study and hard work, he continues. "The best way to find out if you have the makings is to enroll in science classes early in junior and senior high school studies and learn about this vast world of science and its wonderful opportunities," he advises. Is science "too rough" for most students? No. Fear of science on the part of students today in America is a pet peeve with Gilfillan. This fear that science is too hard or too time con suming is keeping vast num- . -Lin A mn.lflQn T7MlVe out of science classes and ca reers, he insists. The overwhelming majority of students should be able to j pass and enjoy science studies he says, and some will find "new worlds opened to them." The ideal, of course, is learn ing "something about every thing and everything about something," Gilfillan pointed out, and the education of the scientist ought to approach this ideal as far as possible. "The scientists has to be both a specialist and a broad ly educated man a man La sue Still h Mopes of IrJigkir Mshiinig By HAL WOOD United Press Sports Writer Tucson, Ariz. (ID Frank Lane has only started to shake up the Cleveland In dians and before he s unsh ed, it's a safe bet he'll have them back in the first divi sion of the American League Lane has a history of mov ing teams ud 'wherever he goes. He did it with the White Sox and the Cardinals, and now he's busy doing it with the Indians, who finished sixth last year. Lane's latest move was get ting outfielder Larry Doby and Don Ferrarese, a left handed curve-baller, from Baltimore in exchange for Gene Woodling, Dick Wil liams and Bud Daley. The Indians now are well set in the outfield with Min nie Mineso in left, Doby in center and either Roger Mans or Rocky Colovito in right, Pitching Decisive In the long run, however. the Indians' pitching will de cide how high they finish this year. Herb Score, Bob Lemon and Mike Garcia will be three of Cleveland's starters. Ray Narleski and John Mossi are a pair of excellent relievers but Manager Bobby Bragan may be forced to start either one or both from time to time. Mudcat Grant, who was 18-7 with San Diego last year, may prove capable of taking a starting turn. That would still leave Cal McLish, who was 9-7 last year; Pete Wojey, recently ac quired from Detroit; Dick To- manek and possibly Hal Woodeschick for relief. The infield is Cleveland's weak spot and the situation wasn't helped any when first baseman Vic Wertz suffered a broken ankle last Sunday, Fortunately, Lane acquired dependanble Mickey Vernon from the Red Sox so the prob lem isn't as acute as it might have been. Vernon and Pres ton Ward will handle first base until July 1 when Wertz is expected back. Moran Impresses Rookie Billy Moran, up from San Diego, has impress ed so much with his hitting and fielding this spring that he has virtually won the sec ond base job. Veteran Chico Carrasquel will be at, short stop and either Bobby Avila or Billy Harrell at third. J-'rea Hatfield is the number one utility man. Russ Nixon has stepped in and taken over the regular catching job and Hal Naragon and J. W. Porter are avail able to back him up. Dick Brown, with the club last year, is due out of the Army later this month. The Indians' sixth-place finish last season was their lowest in 11 years, but now that Lane has taken over, things are definitely looking up again. sharpened to a point," accord ing to Gilfillan. For high school students preparing to go to college, he lists biology, physics, and chemistry;- four years of mathematics; the complete sequence of English: and. if possible, a foreign language, preferably either German or Latin, or both. How can parents encourage their children in science? 1. By taking the time to "really anrwer" some of the questions children ask about things in science. Stimulate, don't kill, .curiosity. Help youngsters look below the sur face of things, Gilfillan says. 2. By reading and talking to children about science and there is little today that isn't involved with science and by providing reading ma terial in the home that is on the child's level and that is "food for thought." Encourage them with ex periments" and projects and studies in science. Scientists are made, not born, and parents and schools play the major roles in mak ing them, he concluded.
