SAUNDERS IS NAMED FOR SCIENCE GROUP BOARD

Frederick Albert Saunders, Ph.D., Professor of Physics, was announced last night by Dr. Carl Compton, head of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, as having been named a member of the governing board of the new Science Institute, of which Dr. Compton is the chairmnan.

The Institute, which is composed of the combined forces of the American Acoustical Society, the American Physics Society, the American Optical Society, and the American Society for Rheology, was recently formed for the purpose of bringing the discoveries of each of these bodies to bear upon the interests of science as a whole.

The governing board is composed of three members of each of these four societies; Dr. Compton and Professor Saunders both represent the Society of Physics. During the summer a permanent, full-time executive secretary will be chosen from the board, under whose supervision the work of publication, and of the organization of smaller committees will be placed. The coats of preliminary organization, including the establishment of permanent offices, forms, and incidental expenses for the year, have been underwritten by the Chemical Foundation of New York City.
