St Jo-eph County, and pr hably the State of Indiana. Allow me to give a short historical background of Dr. Urey’s life. Dr Harold I rev was bom in Walkerton Indiana. on April 29. 1893. He was educated at the universities of Montana and California. and Copenhagen’s Bohr In ’.tute and taught chemistry at Montana John Hopkins, ar.i Columbia Universities He was editor of the Journal of Chemical Physics (1933-19401. In 1934 Urey received the Nobel pr.ze in chemo try for his discovery of deuterium (heavy hydro-

The in<-on\• memes they have had t<> go through certainly are much more than a plan to combine the school* under their prvs< nt facilities until the building wa- in a more completed form. The 1966-67 m hixd war may also prove to have some unpleasant conditions, but certainly is a step in the right direction to get the high i.chool where a broader curriculum can be offered. Transportation will be a little more inconvenient, but the sooner the high school is together, the better the chance for a mure varied and complete schedule for the students. This is still the main objective of the reorganization plan. The board to date must be congratulated on their work in operating this very large bu--ims-.

More recently. Dr Urey has been invoked in the synthesis of life from amino acids, in the NASA project-. and has revived a ’nodal fi m Pre ide nt Johnson which acknowledged h m as one of the foremost scientists in the United State-- today.
