He said he barely knew his brother's son, Caryl, who died in a California gas chamber May 2. ;Chessman's will was probated in San Rafael, Calif., Wednes day. Richard Chessman said a 1958 heart attack forced him to quit his bus-boy job. (UPI Telepholo) Underground Atom Blast Seen Hard To Identify New York - CTI - A total of 242 persons, including poet Joyce Kilmer, Mormon leader Brigham Young and Christian Science founder Mary Baker Eddy, have been nominated for 1960 s 13th election to the hall of fame for great Ameri cans at New York university, it has been announced. The list, to be voted on by 147 distinguished citizens. In cludes Presidents Andrew Johnson, William McKinley, James Knox Polk. Calvin Coolidiie. William Henry Har- J rison and Benjamin Harrison, i Four presidential also-rans ! also are included - Samuel I Jones Tllden, Horare Greeley, i William Jennings Bryan and Aaron Burr. Other nomineej include military heroes, crusar'ers for woman's suffrage and the ab olition of slavery, authors, ar tists, composers, pioneers in j medicine, scientists, educators and business leaders. To be elected, a person must have been dead at least 25 years and must have con tributed significantly to the history, culture or develop ment of the nation. A maximum of seven can didates will be selected, with the results to be named Nov. 1- Among the nominees are Horatio Alger, author of books for boys; Thomas A. j Edison, invenlor of the elec- ' ric light, and Will Rogers, i humorist and actor. Publish- ; ers Adolph Ochs and Joseph Pulitzer are on the ballot, as are artist Winslow Homer and Francis Scott Key, author of the text to "The Star Spangl ed Banner." Washington -UPt- The con- gressional atomic energy com mittee has reported unani mously that it will not be possible, for at least several years, to positively Identify clandestine underground teste of Hiroshima-size weapons. The panel also reported a general agreement, by scien tists at recent hearings, that 'c landestine tests of large nu clear weapons could success fully be conducted In space ."within the present scope of missile and satellite technol ogy." ' The committee released a summary and analysis of test detection hearings held by two of its subcommittees sit ting jointly last month. Is sued as a committee report, the analysis was approved by all of the full committee's 18 members. Could Escapa Detection The summary said resource ful cheating on a test-ban could for the next several years, escape detection of tests of weaponi five times the Hiroshima sire hy muffling their shock effect in large underground cavities. "Therefore it seems that for Hie next several years and possibly thereafter there could be a race between im proved means of detection and identification as against Improvnd means of concealing and muffling nuclear tests," the committee said. President Eisenhower an nounced yesterday that the United States will resume un derground testing of nuclear weapons by the end of the year for "non-weapon" pur poses - Including improved detection system. i n e committee summary noted that the 1058 confer ence of scientific experts in Geneva concluded that under ground tests yielding a force of less than 5,000 tons of TNT could be detected and located with a system of 180 control posts throughout the world spaced 800 to 1.000 miles apart. Underground Disturbances The finding of the senate house committee was. in ef fect, that underground blasts yielding some about the equivalent of 20,000 tons of TNT (the Hiroshima size) will not be identifiable as clandes tine weapons tests "at least for the next several years" Ithotigh they may be detect ed as an underground disturb ance. This was the committee's f'nding: "It appears from the testi mony that at least for the next several years it will not lie pojsible to identify under ground events whoa seismic signal record the equivalent of a non-mufflerf miriap ,. ' plosion of 20 kllotons or lest, although they may be detect ed. "I-'urther, It appears that for ttm same tune period It will not be possible to detect muffled tests of 100 kilotons or more set off deep under ground In large cavities." Program Needed The committee . reported that a score of scientists who testified at the hearings gen erally agreed that: - A "vigorous and sustain ed program of research and development" Is needed on techniques for detection, iden tification and inspection of underground tests. The proposed Geneva con trol system will need "aug mentation and improvement" to get down to the level of a 5,000 ton TNT range blast. - More detection stations will be needed and, if they re provided, there will be more unidentified under- ground rumbles which may require on-site Inspection. Cigarette Smoking Cuts Lung Power Bethesda Md. (Science Serv IccKThe coach is riulit. nth. leles. Smoking reduces lung and breathing capacity, a study, partly supported by the national Heart institute here, shows. The study indicates c-eriain irritants produced by smoking can lead to chronic infection and permanent damage to the lungs. The researchers con clude that lungs are probably physically changed by smok ing. The study was made in Dallas. Tex., by Dr. Russell H. Wilson and Dr. Robert S. Meador, both of the Univer sity of Texas Southwestern Medical school, and Bruce P Jay and Evelyn Higgins, both of the Veterans Administra tion hospital, Dallas. Thev are reporting details In the New England Journal of Medicine. They studied 14 smokers and 14 non-smokers. These persons were selected from s 1 m 1 a r backgrounds. They had no significant differences In physical appearance. nKe or history of disease. The only significant difference report ed by the researchers is that one group had smoked a Daek or more of clrgarettes daily for an average of 18 years and the other group had nut smoked at all. Weather Map Said Aid to Vacationers Washington - (Science Serv ice) - Newlyweds planning their honeymoons or persons planning vacations in June will find help in a June tem perature map issued by the U.S. weather bureau here. The map shows the average temperatures expected in areas throughout the United States. Vacationers who like fairly even temperatures with aver age variations of less than 10 degrees Fahrenheit a day may find the Texas coast near Galveston or the Pacific coast of Washington and Oregon will fill the bill. Fo.- those who want hot days and rela tively cool nights, Arizona Is the stale, for there the aver age temperature changes about 30 degrees within 24 hours, averaging about 80 degrees. As might be expected, the coolest June temperatures are to be found in the Rocky Mountain stales, where daily temperaf ires ranges vary from 25 to 33 degrees. For warm weather with 12- to 15 riegree variations from day to night, southern Florida is the place to go. The weather bureau charts contain generalized informa tion only, based upon records of 600 stations for periods of more than 50 years. Local weather bureau offices can often furnish specific infor mation on climate in their areas. Heavy Water Helps Growth of Yiruses New York - (Science Serv ice) - Viruses multiply better In cells grown in heavy water deuterium oxide) than they 1 do in cells grown in ordinary water. Dr. David Kritchevskv of the Wistar institute. Phila delphia, told a New York Academy of Sciences confer ence here that a weakened polio virus strain, known as the CHAT strain, grows well on monkey kidney cells when the medium contains water that Is 40 per cent to 50 per cent deuterium oxide. Where there is no heavy water, the Virus dues not thrive. The CHAT virus was also grown on experimental tumor cells, called HeUa cells. Dr. Kritchevsky said. When the water contained 25 per cent deuterium oxide, the vims burst, or the number of virus es emerging from cell In fested by a single virus when the cell bursts open, was five to ten times greater.
