HIGH SCHOOL TEACHER TRAINING (continued) DR. GLASS remarked that even among those who had taken the college level isotope training, some of the students appeared to have insufficient intellectual curiousity about radiobiclogy and indicated that some early training mignt arouse interest. He suggested that the program might better be reorganized on two different levels. The first Summer's work devoted to the funda- mentals including the use of the kit of laboratory equipment and in high school level experiments and a second Summer devoted to the principais of radiobiology. DR. GLASS expressed the opinion that the program be supplemented to increase the opportunities of introducing new students into the program. Serious consideration should be given to the awarding of scholarships purely on the basis of students ability as in the scholarships and the fellowships offered by the National Sciences Foundation and the National Institute of Health. It is often difficult, however, to evaluate the interest or ability of high school students or even college undergraduates since they have received Little guidance in this respect. Dr. Shields Warren DR. WARREN pointed out that in the consideration of any scholar- ehip program, the problem of security clearance always arises. There is still in existance a rider on the appropriations bill which requires security clear- SECURITY CLEARANCE REQUIREMENTS ance for those participating in the AEC fellowship program. A lengthy discussion followed as to the problem of restrictions imposed by the security rider on the appropriations bill and whether or not an outright grant given to an institution which in turn was used in part to provide scholarships was subject to the security rider. The relationship between such allotments and salaries given to research students participating in AEC contracts was discussed. There is also the problem of supplying funds which are mixed with other funds some of which are provided by other organizations to provide fellowships. It appeared clear that in a literal interpretation, the fellowship rider would not be applicable, but on the other hand, it was pointed out by MR.

DUNHAM indicated that he did not expect to receive specific recommendations from the Committee at this time but interpreted their comments as indicating general approval of the program. It was suggested, therefore, that a motion be worded to express the opinion of the Committee on the education program, particularly with respect to any restriction in
