Corvallis - njpn - A Nobel
Laureate scientist said Tues
day night that the moon, as
a sort of cold storage reposi
tory for biological molecules,
may furnish clues to life else
where in the universe.
Dr. Melvin Calvin said
that new laboratory experi
ments bolster the idea that
life, possibly in higher form
than that on Earth, may exist
in many other places.
Probes to the Moon, he sug
gested, hold the promise of
information that might not
be available otherwise. He

Race to Moon
The theory held particular
interest against the back
ground of the current Ameri
can - Soviet "race to the
Moon."
Calvin is' director of the
bio-organic group in the Uni
versity of California's Law
rence Radiation laboratory.
His remarks were in a key
note speech at the American
Institute of Biological Sci
ences convention here.
' Experiments, he said, re
inforce the theory that some
two or three billion years
ago natural energy sources
on Earth created molecules
of growing complexity, even
tually resulting in a form
that could duplicate itself in
hereditary fashion.
Life Likely Elsewhere
Because conditions similar
to those on earth probably
prevailed elsewhere in the
universe, Calvin said, he be
lieves that forms of life exist
elsewhere. Some forms may
be inferior and some superi
or to those on earth, he said.
He said evidence seems
strong that some life, possibly
plants, exist on Mars. He said
no conclusions could be reach
ed about Venus.

Speaking of possible life in
other galactic systems Calvin
said:
"We are led to the conclu
sion that there must exist else
where in the universe not one
but many terrestrial type
planets upon which . . . will
have evolved living systems
of a kind that we would rec
ognize as such.
"Given the time scale of
five to 10 billion years, it is
clear that some of these liv
ing communities may have ex
isted much longer than the
one on earth.
"Some of these other plan

Episcopal Rector Urges Calm
Planning for Funeral Service
UPI Correipondenl
What kind of funeral do
you want?
That may strike you as a
macabre question. But to the
Rev. Ernest D. Vanderburgh,
an Episcopal rector of Prov
incetown, Mass., it's a ques
tion that Christians should be
prepared to answer calmly
and matler-of-factly. Since it's
a safe bet that you're going to
have a funeral of some kind,
some day, the Rev. Mr. Van
derburgh reasons, you might
as well help to plan it-at least
to the extent of sparing your
survivors from some of the
costly and un-Christian things
they're likely to do with your
corpse uiiIcfs you have made
your wishes clear.
In the current issue of Ihe
Episcopalian magazine, t h e
Rev. Mr. Vanderburgh offers
a letter that a Christian might
leave for his survivors, to
head off some of the "pain
ful practices and spiritual out
rages" which have become
conventional in modern funer
als. Addressed to "my dear har
assed, beloved survivors,'' it
gives instructions for a simple,
Christian burial.
"The first thing to do," it
says, "is to call the clergyman,
not the funeral director. Nev
er mind if it is the middle of
the night; never mind if you
haven't been to church lately;
never mind what the circum
stances are. Call the, clergy
man. He will be the one most
competent to make the ar
rangements and make things
easier for you. Show htm this
letter and have him take over.
"I want my funeral to be
in a church. I mean a real
church, not a 'funeral chapel'
or "funeral church.' I belong
lo the church so my funeral
ought to be in the church.
Also, I think you will find it
more helpful and satisfactory
that way, although you may
find this hard to see before
hand. "For the service, ask the
minister to use simply the
book of Common Prayer. No
sermon, no eulogy, no 'special'
poetry, no 'special' prayers.
They would only lengthen the
funeral and make it a burden.
A eulogy would mean telling
white lies at a time that par
ticularly calls for absolute
truth.
"And no solos, please ... if
you want choir or instrumen
tal music, fine. But don't let
others talk you into it.
"No flowers in the church,
please, except on the altar.
There they proclaim ressur-
rection. Elsewhere in the
church, , at a funeral, they
would seem to me lo indicate
either that you or I had been
entered in some sort of pop
ularity contest ... let people
give a little donation to their
church or favorite charity in
stead, if they must spend their
money."
"Instead of flowers on the
casket, you can use the old
Christian tradition of cover
ing it with a pall-a fine large
cloth made for the purpose,
used as the American flag is
used at military funerals. The
pall gives no opportunity for
man-made distinctions be
tween rich and poor. . .
"I want the undertaker lo
use the simplest, cheapest cas
ket he can find. I know that
means It will probably be in
bad taste. 1 still say cheapest.
If it is covered wilh a pall, ils
" 1
looks will make no practical
difference anyway. But more
important, what honor or val -
ue is there In spending huge
sums of money lo glorify and
protect unnaturally, artifical -
ly, the now useless machine
introduce your family lo Utc pleasures of Cadillac ownership.
