The pair, Dr. John Oro, a biochemist, and Or. Albert Zliilkis, a chemical engineer, have received a $7 1 .230 grant from the National Aeronau tics and Space Administration on the three-year research project. Both scientists are associ ate professors of chemistry at the university. The NASA grant came In hopes that their work will help the development of sim ple miniature inst r u m e n t with which the chemical com pnsition of the moon and the planets may be analyzed by future manned and unmanned Fpace probes. The scientists are starting their study with pieces of two meteorites, in which other sci entists have already reported finding what appears to be life like forms of n primitive type. The fragments are from Ihe Murray Meicorite which fell near Murray, Ky in Septem ber, 1!)S0, and from Ihe Mo koia Meteorite, discovered near Wanganul, New Zealand, Kov. 2. 1!KI8. . The two chief types of me teorites found on earth are those conniting principally of stone and those with large concentrations of Iron and HERB HUNTER Lee lit in ri J M OCTOBER 25. 1962 nickel. The Mokola and Mur ray meteorites are of a rare type called carbonaceous chondrites, or stony meteor ites, which contain consider able carbon. The scientists believe that these two meteorites came from a parent body that pos sessed an atmosphere and an ocean of some type and was at least lunar size. Most astronomers believe that meteorites ate chunks of matter which come from the orbit o I belt of asteroids between Mars and Jupiter. The asteroids are .small planetary bodies. There are thousands of them revolving around the sun between Mars and Jupiter. Many asironomers believe that a fairly large planet once revolved between Mars and Jupiter. It may have been de stroyed In a celestial catas trophe, and tlie debris scat tered as meteorites all over the solar system. On Research Project For many years, Ilr. Oro ha been working on a re search project seeking to de termine how life originated on the earth in primeval times. He believes thai one possible way was by colli sions, or near collisions, of the earth with comets. Through such collisions and near misses, the earth would get great quantities of comc tary gases.

The Pope, in a four-minute, French-language speech broad cast around the world by Vat ican Radio, said "we suppli cate all rulers not to remain deaf to the cry of mankind." "Let them do everything in their power to save peace," he said. Fighting Not Mentioned Although he did not men tion Cuba or the Sino-Indian fighting, it was obvious that his unexpected plea referred to them. "In all conscience let them give ear to the anguished cry of peace which rises up to heaven from every part of the world, from innocent chil dren and those grown old, from individuals and com munities," Pope John said. Speaking in a firm, clear voice, the 80-year-old pontiff said that "to promote, favor and accept negotiations, at all levels and all times, is a rule of wisdom and prudence which calls down the blessings of heaven and earth." Meets Bishops Shortly before he spoke, Pope John met In private audiences with Francis Card inal Spcllman, Archbishop of New York, and James Francis Cardinal Mclntyre, archbish op of Los Angeles. He also met several East German bishops, including the bishop of Berlin. It was the most forceful and impassioned plea by a pontiff since the late rope nus ah in 1956 appealed to world ilatcsmen to quench the fire of war in the Middle East be fore it could expand into "on enormous blaze."
