"In any field of scientific
research, it will be a long

she said. "We haven't given
children a chance to know
about scientists . . . they get
all their ideas from television.
You know, the Frankenstein
stuff.
Science Comes High
"They don t get to meet a
real researcher; to see him
at work. If we want scien
tists, we've got to recruit
them In high school. It is too
late by the time they get to
college.
"And we've got to start
paying them. A researcher
stays with his field for love
of it. My husband says you
have to be crazy to choose
research for a career.
"People can't afford to be
scientists. We treat them like
we treat teachers."
Even so, the couple's two
sons are following their par
ents Into research. One son,
Erich, 20, is studying medi
cine at Harvard; another,
Frederic, 17, is still in high
school, but plans .to be an
atomic physicist.
