The new drug releases itself slowly into the, bloodstream from the point of injection over a per- iod of several months. It could be vital in breaking the chain of ma- larial infection from diseased pea- sons to mosquitoes which then in- feet other persons. Malaria kills two million people each year in many tropical coun- tries. Slow Release The slow release mechanism of the new drug may also lead to the development of other drugs func- tioning similarly, to give long last- ing protection against such diseas- es as tuberculosis and pneumonia, Dr. Paul E. Thompson, Parke- Davis laboratory director in par- asitology explained. Drs. Thompson and G. Robert Coatney of the United States Pub- lic Health Service, presented in- itial reports on the drug yester- day before the American Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene in Atlanta, Ga. The drug, known as CI-507, is not yet available for general use. According to Dr. L. H. Schmidt, director of the Christ Hopsital In- stitute of Medical Research in Cincinnati, monkeys injected with the drug did not contract malaria despite attempts to infect them one week later and at monthly in- tervals for seven months. Parasites at Parke-Davis Malarial parasites derived from mosquitoes were used in the ex- periment. Untreated animals de- veloped the disease within eight or nine days. Parke-Davis said that this work was particularly important because malaria transmitted by diseased mosquitoes responds differently to drugs that malaria transmitted by blood transfusions. The drug has been injected into inmate volunteers at the Federal Penitentiary in Atlanta in the past year. Injection Protection Dr. Coatney said that "a single injection given the volunteers nearly a year ago is continuing to protect them from malaria in- duced by heavily infected mosqui- toes which have been allowed to bite them at monthly intervals." Other volunteers serving as con- trols were not given the drug and invariably contracted m a 1 a r i a when bitten by the same mosquitoes. Some of Dr. Coatney's investi- gations also warned that despite "spectacular" experimental find- ings "it remains to be determined whether these results will be borne out under actual field conditions in malarial areas of the world." If, however, CI-501 does succeed in field conditions, it should greatly increase chances of suc- cess in eradicating malaria. Although malaria infection is virtually non-existent in this country. the disease is a major health problem in all of Africa, part of South America, and much of Central America-one third of the world. There are other drugs which give immunity from one day to one week as the result of a single in- jection, but 'because of their short- term protection and the lack of an effective mass program for the distrihutinn nf drurs malaria is range. sian news agency, the vehicle is he journey in a little more than ighs about 1,966 pounds, which is 'considerably heavier than any- thing the United States has been able to put in space. Tass explained that the main objectives of the probe are to be- gin a prolonged exploration of outer space, the effect of possible establishment of interplanetary space communications, and obtain detailed photographs of Mars which can be relayed back to earth by radio. Observers Feel Observers feel that Mars I rep- resents a. Soviet attempt to suc- ceed in a Martian probe where the United State failed in its lat- est Venus probe. Mariner II, which the United States launched Aug. 27 with hopes of reaching Venus, is ex- pected to be at least 20,000 miles wide of the planet when it passes it some time around Dec. 14. Tass said its shot is the first Soviet attempt to investigate the secrets of Mars at close range. New Way The tracking of the probe, the determination of the course it follows, and the transmission of the various types of data back to Earth will be carried out in a new way, according to Tass. Russian scientists have devised a "special measuring complex and a distant space radio-com- munications center," Tass says. This new--tracking system may indicate a new Russian advance over the Americans if it succeeds, since the United States has been experiencing some difficulties with its Mariner II remote control sys- tem. 337,000 Kilometers The Russian vehicle had cover- ed 337,000 kilometers (210,000 miles) on its journey by 2 a.m. this morning, according to Tass. All the complex recording, guiding and transmitting equip- ment 'was reported to be func- tioning normally. "Preliminary p r o c e s s i n g of measuring information carried out at the coordination-computation center has shown that the Mars I probe is moving over a trajec- tory close to the prescribed course," Tass stated. Several leading Soviet scientists have lauded the launching and new tracking method as "the most significant development in space technology since Sputnik I. "If the spacecraft succeeds in its trip to Mars, the Soviet Union will have displayed, once again, its dominance in space." Action Sets Controversy By Students By RICHARD KRAUT The removal of All-University Student Government (AUSG) President Robert Howard from his post has stirred much controversy on the Michigan State University campus. Howard reported last night that he has refused officially to resign his position although he will not function as AUSG president. A petition with 1600 signatures has been collected and demonstrations have been held in his defense, he added. Student Congress Speaker James Barnes has assumed the presi- dency although Howard considers him acting president. 'Blow to Prestige' Barnes called Howard's removal "a blow to student government prestige on the MSU campus." He said his job will be to "pull the pieces together and reorganize an effective student government." "The demand for my resignation is being approached from every possible angle," Howard said. He noted that the faculty has taken a considerable interest in the case, but that it has not been; entirely favorable to his side. I Campus in Ferment "Thus far, President John Ian- nah has said nothing about the issue," Howard said. "The campus is in ferment and no one really knows what is going to happen next." Howard was placed on social probation Tuesday by Dean of Students John A. Fuzak. This, while in effect, bars a student from holding any campus office. Probation lasts for at least 90 days. Howard worked towards the vio- lation of the recently revised speaker policy, which sets up a Faculty-Student Screening Com- mittee to insure that campus speakers do not advocate the vio- lation of a state or national law. Organizations Reprimanded Six student organizations were' reprimanded in the same action, among them the AUSG. In addition, the committee on' student conduct demanded the' resignation of five other leaders and placed them on social proba- tion. The six organizations and stu- dents being punished formed an1 integral part of the recently creat- ed Campus Club Conference. Invites SNCCers The CCC recently invited three members of the Student Non- Violent Coordinating Committee in Detroit to speak on campus, but; did not seek official approval. ' CCC, which has no official sta- tus at MSU, actually was formed by nine student organizations, but three of them were not reprimand-< ed by the administration because' they played small roles in seeking speakers. M1Vikoyan, OnIF Cuba Starts Missile Base Disnmantling Castro Asks Ouster Of Guantanamo Base HAVANA (P) - Prime Minister Fidel Castro said last night that he never will accept inspection in Cuba to verify removal of So- viet missile bases. And he admitted Cuba has had differences with the Russians, who have agreed to international in- spection of the dismantling and removal of Soviet rockets. In a radio-television speech to Cubans, Castro declared that in- spection of Cuban defenses would be humiliating and a violation of the nation's sovereignty. He said "strategic arms" are being pulled out of Cuba. Speaks Out Castro spoke out ahead of the scheduled arrival today of Soviet Deputy Premier Anastas I. Miko- yan, who is believed to have been sent by the Kremlin to soothe the Cuban leader's ruffled feelings. Premier Nikita S. Khrushchev by-passed Castro in advising Pres- ident John F. Kennedy he would withdraw Soviet missiles under inspection. But Castro said there is no breach between Cuba and the Soviet Union. - Castro again demanded removal of the United States Naval Base at Guantanamo and a lifting of the blockade imposed by the Unit- ed States Navy to keep any more offensive weapons out of Cuba. Alternative The Prime Minister said the Soviet Union proposed to the United States Wednesday an al- ternate to the blockade. Under this plan, Castro said, "Soviet ships will permit an inspection by the Red Cross, a verification by the Red Cross that they are not transporting arms."~ Castro said he telephoned the Red Cross and the organization agreed to the plan in order to help maintain the peace. But Castro added: "My attitude is one of non-par- ticipation. I cannot associate my- self with any of the proposals." Faulty Steps In calling for withdrawal of the United States Navy from its leased base in Eastern Cuba, Castro said nothing about any steps Cuba might take. He has said -in the past, however, that the base will be reclaimed by legal means. "It is absurd to ask withdrawal of friendly bases and want us to leave an ememy base in our coun- try," he said. Despite Premier Khrushchev's decision to withdraw Russia's rockets from Cuba, Castro declared -and was greeted with applause when he said it-"we are friends of the Soviet Union." urther ea MeCloy Confer NOBEL PRIZES: Landau Wins Physics Award STOCKHOLM (R)-Lev Davidovich Landau, one of the few Jews to rise to prominence in Soviet science, won the 1962 Nobel Prize for Physics yesterday. His research helped in development of the first Russian Sputniks. Dr. John Cowdery Kendrew and Dr. Max Ferdinand Perutz, biochemists working at Cambridge, England, were jointly awarded the 1962 Nobel Prize for chemistry for their work on mystifying IQC Favors Candidacies For Council By ELLEN SILVERMAN Inter-Quadrangle Council last night endorsed six candidates for Student Government Council and' tabled a motion which would in- dicate IQC's approval of a "no" vote on the United States National Student Association referendum. IQC supported, listed in alpha- betical order not preference, Thomas Brown, '63BAd; Russell Epker, '64BAd; Donald Filip, '64E; Robert Ross, '63; Steven Stock- meyer, '63; and Frank Strother, '64. The council evaluated the candi- dates on the basis of their stands "on issues affecting the quad res- idents as University students. Articulate, Forceful Candidates Judgments were made on the ar- ticulation and forcefulness of the candidates themselves and their opinion which the body felt would indicate future benefit for SGC. Taken into consideration also were the candidates' stands on co- educational housing, which "IQC strongly supports," the role of SGC in the community, and the position on on-campus issues. "IQC believes that there are enough important on-campus is- sues that SGC could discuss that affect quad residents that should take precedence over off-campus issues," the council declared. IQC Takes No Stand Although IQC took no stand on continued participation in USNSA the knowledge and views of the candidates and their rationale for arriving at their decisions also fig- ured into the decision to endorse. The body stated that "IQC has not endorsed the other seven can- didates because it believes that basic policy declarations that were made, that the lack of forceful presentations, and the poor articu- lation on the issues by these can- didates would not make them ex- ceptional members of SGC in the vital upcoming year." This statement was not to be considered a condemnation of the other seven, however, and the body urged quad residents to consider all candidates' qualifications. elements in human blood and muscles of certain animals. The physics and chemistry prizes are worth $49,656 each. In Hospital Landau, 54, received news of his award at Moscow Hospital where he is recovering from injuries suf- fered in an automobile accident al- most 10 months ago. His research as a member of the Soviet Academy of Science has been interrupted. An academy spokesman said Landau was "very excited" about the award but added the messages of congratulations were being kept from him. 'Spare Him' "We want to spare him too much excitement," the spokesman said: "He is recovering as well as can be expected.". Landau, father of quantum mechanics and related advanced theories on atomic physics and radiation, was awarded the Nobel Prize especially for his experi- ments on liquid helium gas. Condensed Matter Landau has, with his theories; on condensed matter, explained its special qualities much in the same way as the electron theory on metals. Among other things, he has explained the wave phenomena in the liquid known as "second sound." Landau, a native of Baku on the Black Sea, received his doc- tor's degree at 19 in Leningrad and in the early 1930s worked with nuclear physics pioneer and Nobel Prize winner Prof. Niels Bohr at Copenhagen, Denmark. UC Students Rap Council on Cu~a Stand CHICAGO-A revolt may be in the making at the University of Chicago, the Collegiate Press Ser- vice reports. The student government coun- cil there passed a resolution last week against President John F. Kennedy's Cuban blockade, label- ling the action unnecessary. Other UC students have now charged that the body misrep- resented the majority of student opinion in so doing. Petitiohs are now being circulated condemning the student government u nd sup- porting President Kennedy. LEV DAVIDOVICH LANDAU ... Nobel researcher IU'Scientists Laud Russian By MICHAEL ZWEIG "Lev Landau has done very fine work over a good many years and the Nobel Prize is a well- deserved honor for him," Prof. David M. Dennison, physics de- partment chairman, said last night. Landau, a Soviet theoretical physicist, was awarded the Nobel Prize for physics specifically for his work in low temperature phy- sics and liquid helium. Prof. Dennison, thought that most American physicists' would be "pleased" by the choice. 'Great Physicist' Prof. Marcellus Wiedenbeck, also of the physics department, like- wise praised Landau's work. "He is certainly a great physicist. There is no doubt that he led the way in helium work and has really been outstanding," Prof. Wied- enbech said. Recognizing Landau's "30 years of outstanding work in physics," Prof. Herbert Uberall, also of the physics department, noted that Landau's work on superfluidity which won him the prize was done before the Second World War. Landau is not the only excellent theoretical physicist in the Soviet Union, he said. 'Excellent Choice' Prof. C. T. Coffin, also of the department, called it "an excel- lent choice for the Nobel Prize, better than some recent decisions." A member of the political science department doubted that Landau's award would cause any political difficulty in the Soviet Union. "Landau is not out of favor and there is no reason to believe that the fact that he is Jewish will cause any complica- tions in this case." Conference Views Issue Of Inspection Thant Receives Zorin, KuznetsOV in Talk With Deputy Premier UNITED NATIONS (P) - An- -astas I. Mikoyan, a top' Soviet troubleshooter, conferred la s t night with "old friend" John J. McCloy, who heads President John F. Kennedy's special negotiating team on the Cuban crisis. The immediate problem was how to overcome the hitch in negotia- tions attributed to Fidel Castro's humiliation over being bypassed by Premier Nikita S. Khrushchev in arranging for United Nations inspection for removing Soviet missiles from Cuba. Deputy Premier Mikoyan is on his way to Havana to see Castro today. A Veteran McCloy is a veteran diplomatic negotiator who has been advis- ing United States Ambassador Adlai E. Stevenson during the Cuban crisis. Stevenson also at- tended yesterday's sessions. It was the first United States- Soviet get-together since the crisis flared into the open with Ken- nedy's announcement of a naval arms blockade of Cuba 11 days ago. McCloy is chairman of a three- man coordinating co m m i t t e e named by Kennedy Monday to handle the Cuban crisis nego- tiations. UN Verification Before the conference, Mikoyan conferred with Acting Secretary- General U Thant on the problem posed by Castro's reluctance to agree to United Nations verifica- tion of removal of Soviet missiles. Mikoyan arrived in New York by plane yesterday from Moscow. United States sources said they expect Mikoyan to tell Castro that Khrushchev has given his pledge to Kennedy for removal of the missiles under United Nations in- spection and that if Castro stands in the way he will risk loss of Soviet support. Sore Needs These sources said Mikoyan may offer Castro more sorely needed new economic aid as an induce- ment. Mikoyan is the man who ce- mented the close Soviet relation- ship with Castro and is regarded by the Cuban leader as a warm friend. Accompanying Mikoyan to the session with Thant were Soviet First Deputy Foreign Minister Vasily V. Kuznetsov, who was sent here by Khrushchev as his spe- cial envoy on Sunday. Valerian A. Zorin, Soviet United Nations rep- resentative, was also present. Private Earlier, Thant plunged into a new round of private diplomatic negotiations aimed at avoiding a turn for the worse in the Cuban crisis. Stevenson and Kuznetsov saw him Wednesday night after his return from the Cuban capital. Thant was reported concentrat- ing efforts on trying to get Castro to change his mind and agree to a United Nations inspection plan, which late last night was rejected by Castro in a public address. Charges IllIni Denies Rights Senator Barry Goldwater (R- Ariz) yesterday sent a letter to the Daily Illini, student newspaper Hatcher Receives Awards From Emperor of Japan University President Harlan Hatcher has received an award of the Second Order of Merit with the Middle Cordon of the Rising Sun from Emperor Hirohito of Japan. The presentation was made at Waseda University in Tokyo on the occasion of the university's 80th anniversary, Oct 20. President Hatcher also received an honorary Doctor of Letters degree with an accompanying citation from the Japanese Prime Minister, Hayato Ikeda. Hatcher Co-Operates The special recognition was ac- corded to President Hatcher in appreciation of the co-operation which the University has extend- ed in recent years to the private Japanese university, which serves 30,000 Japanese -students. The University and Waseda Un- iversity have an exchapge program of scholars, and an agreement un- der which the Waseda Institute for Research in Productivity was established. Mrs. Hatcher is accompanying her husband on the trip which will take them through the Far East, visiting Hong Kong, the Philippine I s 1 a n ds, Formosa, Thailand and India.
