'Dropout' May Out-Theorize Einstein Richard Stern won't graduate from high school. He'll be drop- ping out of Beverly Hills (Calif.) High to enter the Massachusetts Institute of Technology at Cam- bridge, Mass., next fall. Richard, 15, is the son of former Detroiters Mr. and Mrs. Jack Stern. (She's the former Lottie Kroll and has a number of rela- tives here, including a sister, Mrs. Hyman NudeII of Pembroke Ave.) The school at which Richard has been accepted is perhaps the out- standing university of its kind in the country. His goal is to major as a mathematical physicist. Richard taught himself calcu- lus and is developing his own method of mathematics, called non-Euclidean analysis,. because he feels the "ordinary kind" of math can't cope with the prob- lems he is trying to solve. At MIT he hopes to test his unified field theory, which attempts to explain the similarities between magnetic, electrostatic and gra- vitational forces and the forces within the nucleus of the atom. Actually, what Richard hopes to do with his theory is prove Ein- stein wrong. In his summary accompanying his application to MIT, Richard wrote: ". . . I have taken care not to make the same errors as Einstein did, and I fully believe that my theory will be able to agree with both relativity and quantum theory . •" Richard recently received the highest possible score (800) in mathematics in the College Board examination. When he was in the eighth grade, his science fair pro- ject on magnetic fields and elec- tron phenomena won him first prize. With the help of a friend, Ric:hard built solar cells from raw materials, and now is experiment- ing with Helmoltz cells, an ap- paratus that demonstrates the charge-to-mass ratio for electrons. A straight-A student, Richard was boiling and testing chemicals in the second grade, and by fourth grade was giving class dem- onstrations. His physics teacher calls Rich- ard "one student in a lifetime." MUM1FOR, They Made the Grade DAVID JACKSON, son of the gan.

The exciting trip lived up to all expectations for most students. For myself, as for many others, the high point of the trip was our visit to Arlington Na- tional Cemetery.
