Title:
Biographical notes for London meeting, 1979.
The manuscript covers Seitz's studies at Stanford University, California Institute of Technology (1929-1932), and Princeton University (1933-1935). Seitz comments on European refugee scientists, and discusses the formation of the solid state group at the University of Pennsylvania, his strong connections with industries such as E. I. Du Pont De Nemours & Company Incorporated and Westinghouse Electric Corporation, and his wartime research at the Frankford Arsenal and at Dahlgren with Enrico Fermi and Eugene Wigner from 1943. He also related Klaus Fuchs' story and describes the Office of Scientific Research and Development Programs. Seitz documents the creation of Field Intelligence Agency Technical (FIAT) for wartime research activities in Germany and discusses his chairmanship of the Carnegie Institute of Technology (1942-1949), the establishment of the solid state physics group at the University of Illinois in 1949, and his involvement in advisory committees in the 1950s.

Dumas, Larry N., 1937-. Larry N. Dumas Chronological and Travel Files Collection, 1992-2000.
Title:
Larry N. Dumas Chronological and Travel Files Collection, 1992-2000.
The collection consists primarily of correspondence and memoranda issued by JPL Deputy Director Larry N. Dumas, from 1992 to 2000. The collection is split into five series: Chronological Files, Travel Files, Appointment Calendars, Viewgraph Presentations, and Miscellaneous Items. According to an interoffice memo dated June 3, 1993, the "Deputy Director serves as the Director's executive officer and the Laboratory's chief operating officer. Strategic planning and initiatives, including TQM [Total Quality Management], are carried out under his direction." This job description is illustrated in the collection. Chronological Files (Boxes 1-11; folders 1-108). The Chronological Files began in July 1992, at the time of Dumas becoming Deputy Director, and continued until December 2000. Although Dumas retired in August 2001, none of his chronological files from 2001 could be located. Represented in the collection repeatedly are letters requesting the hiring of Foreign Nationals. Dumas initially wrote to NASA Personnel Exchanges Officer Michael G. Moore. The letters were sent to Ruth Almony of the NASA Assessment and Technology Division, beginning in mid-1999. An October 9, 1992 memo to all employees announced that JPL, along with other NASA Centers and Federal Agencies, was beginning a transition to the use of metric units of measure for all activities. Dumas noted that the metric system was not new to JPL, that they had used it for interplanetary trajectory analysis since the beginning of the space age. The January 19, 1994 Northridge Earthquake and JPL's response dominated the Chron. files from January through March 1994. Included in the files is a letter to Dr. Blenda J. Wilson, President of California State University, Northridge, which suffered extensive damage. Possible layoffs were addressed in a May 12, 1994 interoffice memorandum to John Heie and Jim King, "Layoff Policies and Procedures". Attached to the memo was a paper written by two attorneys, Raymond R. Kepner and Richard E. Bromley, "How to Minimize Liability Arising from Reductions in Force." A January 12, 1996 memo to the Executive Council stated that due to the then current federal government funding crisis, JPL had been directed by NASA to study measures to minimize current funds expenditures. This affected JPL in hiring, procurements, travel, training, personnel moves and facility rearrangements, organizational/project newsletters, off-site seminars and retreats, consultants, and on-call employees. A September 20, 1996 memo to all JPL Employees and contractor personnel announced a workforce reduction of 300 work-years in FY '97 and another 700 work-years in FY '98. This reduction was explained due to the reduction of the R&D budget in the wake of the end of the cold war and reordering of national priorities. A follow-up memo regarding outsourcing was issued by Dumas on October 1, 1996. In the memo, he announced that two areas of work had been selected for outsourcing: Loan Pool and Instrumentation Services, and Desktop and Network Services. An e-mail thread, whose last entry was dated November 21, 1996, from Dumas, to John Casani, Sandy Cooper and Sue Henry, discussed the potential outsourcing of mission operations. Dumas indicated that the motivation for the downsizing was political, bipartisan and widespread. He believed that if JPL chose to ignore the pressures to downsize, their ability to acquire new work would be damaged, and that JPL would get unilateral action to downsize, as happened with DOD and DOE laboratories. A December 11, 1996 memo to JPL Employees announced the establishment of the office of JPL Ombudsperson. The office was intended as a place for employees to take work-related issues and grievances to for resolution. Lewis Redding was appointed as JPL's first Ombudsperson. A General Accounting Office Briefing, dated Match 17, 1997 was a Zero-Base Report titled "JPL Overview". This summarized historical milestones, funding, top ten discoveries in NASA's history, and JPL's role in each, Caltech's contract with NASA, and various change initiatives that JPL had underwent. In an April 10, 1997 memo, Dumas dusted off a script for a skit from the EC Retreat of 1988. The skit presented two alternatives for JPL in the year 2000: "Juggernaut Projects Laboratory" or "Just Plain Laboratory." A June 16, 1997 memo to John Casani, Kirk Dawson, William Harrison, Sue Henry and Henry Yohalem, had an attached draft entitled "Implementation Plan for Downsizing at JPL". An October 2, 1997 memo was to Helene Haase, Regional Director of the U.S. Department of Labor Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP). OFCCP had made assertions that JPL had been discriminating against females and minorities in 5 of 67 pay grades. Dumas expressed concerns over this finding. A November 19, 1997 presentation to Haase laid out JPL's defense. A December 1, 1997 letter to NASA Deputy Associate Administrator for Space Science Earle Huckins notified NASA that JPL was seeking outside legal counsel regarding the OFCCP allegations. Dumas notified Haase from OFCCP in a separate letter, the same day as the Huckins letter. A brief listing of recent OFCCP Chronology, dated September 22, 1998, was compiled by Dumas. September 1, 1998 memo to Kirk Dawson, Charles Elachi, Daryal Gant, and Gael Squibb had attached a JPL NASA Y2K summary matrix schedule. Y2K preparations and planning continued throughout 1998 and 1999. This included a status review on Y2K from the Governing Program Management Council, in July 1998 and October 1998. Attached to a January 15, 1999 memo was presentation material from the second meeting. A February 17, 1999 memo to the JPL Senior Staff relayed that Senior Staff meetings and Director's Reviews were being discontinued, and replaced with Institutional and Program Office forums and Governing Program Management Council (GPMC) meetings, open to all interested JPL personnel. The Senior Staff charter was retired and the Senior Staff mailing list would no longer be maintained or used. The Wide-Field Infrared Explorer (WIRE) spacecraft began to experience a problem during its second pass over a ground station, following a successful launch on March 4, 1999 at Vandenberg Air Force Base. Excessive venting of hydrogen from the spacecraft caused the spacecraft to spin out of control and deploy its aperture cover. The status of WIRE was relayed to JPL Employees and contractor personnel on March 8, 1999. A review board to investigate the WIRE anomaly was formed on March 5, 1999. An April 14, 2000 letter to NASA Administrator Dan Goldin expressing thanks for Goldin's leadership and support after the loss of the Mars '98 missions was signed by the entire Executive Council. Travel Files (Boxes 12-15; Folders 109-201). The collection consists primarily of travel documentation for Dumas. The records in the collection are sporadic for 1992 and 1993. Missing entirely were travel files from 1995, 1996, 2000 and 2001. Dumas presented a paper, "Faster, Better, Cheaper: An Institutional View" at International Astronautical Federation in Amsterdam, The Netherlands, in October 1999. A copy of his paper, as well as a travel folder, is in the series. Appointment Calendars (Boxes 15-16; folders 202-208). Represented in the collection are Dumas' appointment calendars from 1993, 1994, 1997, 1998, and 1999 only. Viewgraph Presentations (Box 16; folders 209-210). Represented in the collection are paper copies of Viewgraphs and presentations for 1994 and 1998. These were the only two years that presentations were separated from the Chronological and Travel Files. Other years were represented in the Chron. Files or the Travel Files.

Pauling, Linus, 1901-1994,. Oral history interview with Linus C. Pauling, 1987 April 6.
Title:
Oral history interview with Linus C. Pauling, 1987 April 6.
Linus Pauling begins this interview by describing his early interest in science. While growing up in Portland, Oregon, he collected laboratory equipment and carried out chemistry experiments in his home. He also worked in the chemistry laboratory of his high school. Pauling supported himself through his undergraduate years at Oregon State Agricultural College by working in the chemistry department stockroom and assisting an engineering professor. During graduate school at Caltech, he learned x-ray crystallography from Roscoe Dickinson and published his first paper. Pauling continued to use crystallography to attack more complex chemical problems. In 1926, Pauling was awarded a Guggenheim Fellowship to study in Europe. In Zurich, he carried out research on the interaction of two helium atoms which later led him to develop the theory of the three-electron bond. Pauling concludes this interview with his return to Caltech as assistant professor of chemistry.

Stone, Edward C, 1936-. Edward C. Stone Collection, 1976-2001.
Title:
Edward C. Stone Collection, 1976-2001.
The collection is composed of incoming and outgoing documents from the Office of the Director during the directorship of Edward C. Stone. The collection is arranged into 10 series: Chronological Files, NASA Files, Caltech Files, Office of the Director Memoranda, Meetings and Speeches, Travel Files, Alphabetical Subject Files, Directors Reviews, Communications Control Records, and Directors Special Account Files. The bulk of the collection is from 1991 to 2000. Chronological Files (boxes 1-8; folders 1-110). This series is composed of outgoing chronological files of correspondence from Stone. The files include letters, interoffice memoranda, proposals and policy statements. Very often only a cover sheet of a proposal, with Stone's signature, could be found in the series. Each month includes an index. The files are from October 1990 to December 2000, with the exception of 1993. The Stone 1993 Chronological Files and the 1993 NASA Files were originally located as part of a records shipment (L-12999) that was permanently withdrawn by the Office of the Director at some time, and was not part of the Archives Accession 2002-23. Included among the correspondence in the series are letters sent to members of the Caltech Trustees Committee on JPL regarding meeting notices. Prominent members of the Committee included Admiral Bobby Ray Inman, Mary Scranton, and Shirley Hufstedler. Other routine documents in the series are recommendations for members to sit on the Advisory Committee for Women (ACW). There are also standard letters to NASA officials the week before launches of flight projects, stating that JPL had successfully completed all of the requisite activities including the Mission Readiness Review for assessing the readiness of the project. Present in the series are mission readiness reviews signed and sent to NASA Associate Administrator for Space Science, Ed Weiler. The adoption of the new managerial style of Total Quality Management (TQM) by JPL is documented in the series. A February 10, 1992 memo from Stone to all employees formally introduced TQM to the lab, beginning with hiring consultants from Organizational Dynamics, Inc. to conduct interviews, focus groups and survey lab personnel. An April 9, 1992 memo to all employees summarized the findings of the survey of 1000 randomly selected employees regarding TQM. Documented in the series are several letters aimed at lobbying various members of Congress to support JPL. There are several letters from 1991 and 1992 to Senator Barbara A. Mikulski. Mikulski's relations with Stone's predecessor, Lew Allen, were not on the best terms, and she was regarded as being a key member of Congress. The July 1999 Chron. File were dominated by letters written to people in California's Congressional Delegation and staff, inviting them to visit JPL while Congress wasn't in session during the Summer of 1999. Also documented in the series are memos that reflect changes in Laboratory personnel, organization and policy. A June 14, 1994 letter from Stone to all personnel informing them that after reviewing the analysis of JPL salary levels, that it was in the Laboratory's best long term interest to forego the regular merit increases in fiscal year 1995. An August 10, 1995 memoranda to all employees announced that William H. Harrison was joining JPL in the new post of Controller. A September 1, 1999 memo announced the appointment of Fred C. McNutt as Chief Financial Officer. A March 4, 1996 memorandum to all employees announced changes in the Human Resources Organization. The HR organization, currently a division in the Business Operations Directorate (610), became a directorate-level organization (190), effective March 25, 1996. The Director of Human Resources became a member of the Executive Council, and report directly to Deputy Director Larry Dumas. Susan D. Henry was appointed Director for Human Resources in the memo. Another organizational change was noted in a separate memo, also dated March 4, 1996, announced the formation of the Mars Exploration Directorate , with Norm Haynes appointed as Director for Mars Exploration. The Mars Exploration Program Office (150) was renumbered as 400, with the sections within the former 410 making the various divisions within the 400 Directorate. This arrangement proved ephemeral, as by 2000, the Mars Program Office continued within the 150 division. Also in the series is a May 13, 1994 letter to Hans Mark. Mark had written Stone the previous month, and attached a previous letter that Mark had written on August 24, 1992. The August 1992 letter is illuminating in that Mark gave advice on what NASA should do regarding strategic policy. Mark noted to Stone that NASA had since implemented much of what he privately recommended. In the same August 1992 letter, Mark also recommended that Stone anticipate a change in the presidential administration, and to ask key administrative staff who were prominent in the Clinton campaign to help out, such as Warren Christopher and Mickey Kantor. Christopher became President Clinton's Secretary of State, and Kantor was one of President Clinton's economic advisors. Also documented are the numerous flight projects that JPL was involved in. Present in the collection are January 22 and 31, 1997 letters to various people inviting them to the Lab on January 29 and February 5, 1997 to view the completed Cassini spacecraft in the Laboratory's Space Simulator test facility. Cassini was launched from Kennedy Space Center on October 13, 1997. The various milestones of Cassini were noted in Office of the Director memoranda sent to all personnel. One example is the memo dated April 24, 1998 regarding the Cassini Venus-1 Flyby, which took place on April 26, 1998. An October 21, 1999 memo to all employees and contractor personnel announced that week the members of the NASA independent review board convened at the Lab to learn about the loss of the Mars Climate Orbiter. The group heard from members of the Mars team and from JPL's internal review team, headed by John Casani. Stone also noted that the lesson to be learned from the loss of the Climate Orbiter concerned the lapses and gaps in their collective actions and processes. NASA Files (boxes 9-30; folders 111-307). This series documents interactions between JPL and various NASA Headquarters departments and NASA Centers. They are organized in the original filing scheme that was used under the directorship of Lew Allen, and through the early Stone years. The 1993 NASA Files were located in a box that was permanently withdrawn. The NASA Files are filed according to the internal NASA Code letter. NASA underwent a change in leadership during the first two years of Stone's directorship. Present in the series is a copy of a February 10, 1992 letter from Admiral Richard Truly to the President of the United States, announcing Truly's resignation as NASA Administrator. Since NASA was without a Deputy Administrator, Truly agreed to stay on until April 1, 1992. Included is a copy of the response dated February 12, 1992, from President George Bush. In early March 1992, the President announced that Daniel S. Goldin, Vice President and General Manager of the TRW Space & Technology Group would become the new NASA Administrator. Truly asked the officials in charge of the NASA Headquarters offices, and the Center Directors for briefing materials for Goldin, as well as one page to acquaint him with the office's operations, issues, problems, etc. A copy of the JPL response, dated March 24, 1992, is in the NASA Administrator file. Goldin proceeded to put his own personal stamp on the agency. A May 18, 1992 fax from Goldin to all personnel after the return of the Space Shuttle Endeavour, titled "The New NASA-Faster, Better, Cheaper, Without Compromising Safety." This would prove to be his motto for the time he was NASA Administrator. A June 4, 1992 letter from Goldin to Center Directors regarding the phasing out of the NASA Logotype Insignia (the "worm" logo) and the use of the NASA Insignia (the "meatball" logo). Attached was a May 22, 1992 memorandum announcing the change in the NASA Insignia. The materials for the Acting Deputy Administrator in 1998 include new NASA Procedures and Guidelines that were introduced in a September 17, 1998 letter from the Acting Deputy Administrator to Enterprise Associate Administrators. Two-hour town hall meetings were conducted to familiarize employees with the new NASA Program/Project Management Process. The packet included a good chart of the major drivers for NASA through the 1990s. (10.AD 1998 file). Among the items in the Office of Legislative Affairs (Code L) is an October 16, 1998 memorandum that summarized a House Science Committee meeting on October 7, 1998, with the discussion of a proposed bail-out for Russia, and the U.S./Russia partnership with the International Space Station (ISS). Dan Goldin was one of the witnesses called to speak. There are a number of hearings before the House Science Committee regarding the ISS. There are numerous documents from the NASA Office of Space Science (Code S). A March 19, 1992 letter from Associate Administrator of Space Science Lennard Fisk announced that the Mars Environmental Survey (MESUR) Pathfinder mission would be included in the Discovery program of missions in NASA, along with the Near-Earth Asteroid Rendezvous (NEAR) mission. Phase A studies of NEAR were awarded to the Applied Physics Laboratory at Johns Hopkins University. A March 18, 1999 letter from Associate Administrator Ed Weiler to Distribution addressed the failure of the Wide-Field Infrared Experiment (WIRE). WIRE was launched by a Pegasus rocket on March 4, 1999 at Vandenberg Air Force base. Upon reaching orbit, the spacecraft began tumbling out of control. During the efforts of the ground controllers at Goddard Space Flight Center to regain control of the spacecraft, the solid hydrogen coolant was prematurely depleted. The memo established the NASA WIRE Spacecraft Failure Mishap Investigation Board. A March 19, 1999 letter from Ed Weiler to Stone directing Stone to suspend all procurement activity for Space Technology (ST)-4/Champollion, and formulate a plan for revising the ST-4/Champollion Project under a new set of constraints. This letter was followed up by an April 23, 1999 letter from Weiler, who congratulated the ST-4/Champollion team for exceeding the requirements of the previous letter. The project was cancelled shortly thereafter. Included in the strategic planning documents is documentation on the Augustine Panel, which was slightly before Stone became JPL Director. Chairman and CEO of Martin Marietta Corporation Norman R. Augustine was Chairman of the Advisory Committee on the Future of the U.S. Space Program. The final report of the committee, dated December 10, 1990, addressed the various concerns of the civil space program, and of NASA. Also recommended were redefining space goals, which included giving high priority to a science program, a Mission to Planet Earth, a Mars Exploration Program, starting with robot explorers, and in the far-term, human explorers. It was also recommended, among other things, that the Space Station Freedom be redesigned to lessen complexity and reduce cost. Caltech Files (boxes 31-37; folders 308-367). This series documents interactions between the campus of the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) and JPL. The series as a whole is dominated by the Caltech Trustees Committee on JPL. The Caltech Trustees Committee on JPL material include meeting minutes, agendas, presentation materials, and miscellaneous correspondence. Additionally, every year the Committee met in Washington D.C. to discuss and review JPL and Caltech activities and to discuss matters of interest with officials of the Government. Also included in the Caltech materials are a few folders regarding the "Vogt Report" of 1976. Included are both parts of the published report. Also two folders on "Campus-Lab Relationships" dated 1976 to 1979. These have been retained in the collection to maintain original order. Office of the Director Interoffice Memoranda (box 38; folders 362-365). These were issued to all personnel, and usually reflected major personnel changes, policy changes, or general information such as charity campaigns. They were issued on tan paper. A listing of the memoranda is included before each years memoranda. They are in the collection for the years 1986-1991. The memoranda were collected primarily by Helen Benedict or Lorraine Brakebill, Administrative Assistants to Lew Allen and Ed Stone. Copies of the memoranda after 1991 are located in the Director's Chron. Files. Meetings and Speeches (boxes 39-72; folders 366-885). Stone's meetings and speeches were often chronologically interfiled, and this original order was maintained. Very often Stone spoke with no written text. This is noted in the collection with a piece of paper written "No Prepared Text." Stone's speech files include several State of the Lab talks. Stone's August 27, 1993 talk with the Mars Observer Team in the von Kármán Auditorium is present in the collection. All contact had been lost with the Mars Observer spacecraft just prior to Mars Orbit Insertion on August 21, 1993. It was the first total loss of a spacecraft in 22 years, since Mariner 8 in 1971. Stone also made several "Town Hall" talks, in which he answered questions from Laboratory personnel. On June 14, 1994, Stone announced a "Zero Raise Policy" for the Lab, the regular merit increases would be eliminated in fiscal year 1995. He also invited questions and comments from Lab personnel. This understandably led to a number of letters written to the Director's Office. The questions were filed in Stone's Speech file, perhaps as reference for future Lab speeches, so it has been retained in the same place in the collection. A February 2, 1995 video address to the JPL Community is in the series. Stone, Deputy Director Larry Dumas and Associate Director Kirk Dawson described an impending Laboratory reorganization. All business operations were placed under the Associate Director. The position of Controller was established. Assistant Laboratory Director's were replaced with Directorates. Several of Stone's talks were reprinted in science magazines and journals. One of these is the Third Annual Carl Sagan Memorial Lecture, November 16, 1999. Included in the materials are documents involved in the clearance of the article, and the editing process. Travel Files (boxes 73-85; folders 885-1250). This series consists primarily of routine documents associated with travel, Travel Authorization forms and Travel Reports. They document that Dr. Stone was on the road for a substantial amount of time. There are several folders that contain extra information above and beyond the standard forms. Alphabetical Subject Files (boxes 86-96; folders 1251-1359). These files are grouped by common subject, and reflect the original filing order. Additionally, some entries were added for subjects that could not easily fit into any other category. Included in this series are correspondence and meeting files for documentary television series that Stone was involved in as an advisor. "The Astronomers" was a six-part PBS series produced by KCET- Los Angeles. Executive Producer was Blaine Baggett, KCET Director of National Public Affairs, later JPL Manager of the Office of Education and Public Affairs. The series premiered April 15, 1991. Stone participated in Episode 6, "Prospecting for Planets", and acted as chief series advisor for the entire series. Stone also served on the advisory committee of the PBS series "Space Age," produced by WQED- Pittsburgh, in association with the National Academy of Sciences. The series was broadcast in 1992. Stone served as Committee Vice Chairman. Committee Chairman was Sally K. Ride. In 1991, Stone was also asked to be a consultant on a series of three one-hour episodes called "The Realm of the Sun", presented by Timothy Ferris. Documents regarding the Discovery missions are in the collection. The Discovery missions were a class of exploratory missions. Included are materials and proposals on a Pluto/Charon Flyby mission, Hermes Global Orbiter to Mercury, and the Mars Pathfinder mission. A September 21, 1992 memorandum from Charles Elachi to the Executive Council revealed that there were 28 Discovery proposals that JPL had a role in. Also in the series is correspondence regarding the Northridge Earthquake. On January 17, 1994, the Los Angeles area was struck by the Northridge Earthquake. JPL's handling of the situation rankled many employees. JPL's Human Resources Division had originally told employees that the Lab was open, and to use sick time, vacation time, or leave without pay, unless there was a road closure that prevented an employee from getting to work. There were several letters from irate employees who gave their opinion on the matter. A January 21, 1994 memorandum from Stone announced that they were exploring the possibility of charging to a special account the lost work time for employees unable to get to the Lab on January 17-18 because of the earthquake. There are a number of folders in the collection devoted to Mars exploration. The Final Report of the JPL Mars Observer Special Review Board, chaired by R. Rhodes Stephenson, gave its report on November 2, 1993. Included in the collection is the Viewgraph package that was presented at the meeting. The loss of the Mars Observer was important in the planning for subsequent Mars missions. The Mars Recovery Study Team had as an objective to recover a significant part of Mars Observer's objectives and go back to Mars in 1994. Chair of the Study Team was Charles Elachi. Other prominent members of the team included Lew Allen, John Casani, Gene Giberson, Ray Heacock, Bruce Murray, Donna Pivirotto, Carolyn Porco and Carl Sagan, among others. An undated draft of the presentation to NASA HQ is in the collection, as is the final report, dated September 15, 1993. Dr. Stone was a member of the California Council on Science and Technology, a business-education group created in 1988 by the California State Legislature to revitalize California's economy. Project California was a panel of twenty-four business, education, labor and government leaders appointed to establish California as a world leader in advanced transportation and telecommunication systems by the year 2000. This included thinking about high-speed trains to connect cities, "smart" freeways using electronics and communications to move more traffic on congested roadways, technology for clean electric vehicles, and fiber-optic communication "highways" to connect computers. The group was co-chaired by chairman emeritus of Lockheed Roy Anderson, and chairman emeritus of Hughes Aircraft Malcolm Currie. Stone was a member of the group. Directors Reviews (boxes 97-99, folders 1360-1391). This series documents periodic reviews by the Director of selected projects and organizations, for 1998, as well as Institutional Forum Meetings and Governing Program Management Committee (GPMC) Committee meetings for 1999, which served a similar purpose. Directors Special Account Files (boxes 100-106, folders 1392-1467). This series documents costs incurred by the Director's Office, primarily but not limited to entertaining visitors and other important guests. The series is chronological from 1993 to 1999. Communications Control Records (boxes 107-109, folders 1468-1497). Communications Control Records were a way of tracking incoming correspondence. The standard form included who the message was from, date, description of correspondence, any action requested, and who the action was assigned to, along with remarks and additional comments. The form often had the original correspondence attached to it. JPL Discreet materials (Boxes 110-111). Of the above materials, 27 folders have documents stamped or marked "JPL Discreet," "Executive Council Discreet," or "SEB Discreet." These have been moved to two boxes at the end of the collection. Their original positions have been marked with separation sheets. Whole files that are discreet are noted in the file folder list.

Colella, Frank J., 1921-. JPL Public Affairs Office Collection, 1969-1983.
Title:
JPL Public Affairs Office Collection, 1969-1983.
The collection consists of press releases, copies of newspaper clippings, presentation material, correspondence, lithographs, and reports, many originating from the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) Office of Public Affairs, some originating from NASA and Caltech. The collection is arranged alphabetically by subject. The bulk of the collection dates from 1976 to 1983. These materials were all compiled and promulgated to fulfill the Public Affairs Office's administrative responsibilities. Noteworthy items included in the collection are: Apollo Program (folder 1). This folder consists of NASA press releases and copies of newspaper articles involving the Apollo manned missions to the Moon. There is a concentration on the Apollo 12 mission that retrieved pieces of JPL's Surveyor 3 probe from the surface of the Moon. Also included is information on the Apollo 14 and 17 missions. Cost Estimates (Folders 7-14). Included in these folders are cost estimate summaries and plans for the various sections in the Public Affairs Office. The public affairs plans included an itemized listing of all expenditures for the PAO, which depending on the project included models, film clips for launch activities, photographs of planetary encounters, science briefings, secretarial support, fact sheets, lithographs, printing requirements, and other miscellaneous items. The missions included are Galileo, Infrared Astronomical Satellite (IRAS), National Oceanic Satellite System, International Solar Polar Mission (later Ulysses), Venus Orbiting Imaging Radar (later Magellan), and Voyager. Also included are files on Public Affairs projected activities, research and program management. Exploration of the Solar System (Folder 18). This is presentation material that was presented on September 22, 1977. It describes the rationale, goals and content of the U.S. Lunar and Planetary Programs. Included are 22 photographs, with captions. NASA Budget (Folders 34-39). This series of folders starts with a chart breaking down the NASA Office of Space Science budgets for planetary exploration year by year from 1959 to 1978. The categories include research and technology, flight projects and flight support. The remaining files are organized by year, and include memoranda, press releases and Congressional testimony regarding the NASA budget. Nomenclature (Folders 40-42). These three files deal with the designation of project names for Voyager and Galileo, as well as the change in name of the Civil Systems Office. The Civil Systems Office (Organization 700) was established in April 1976. As early as November 1976 there were proposals for new names for the organization. Most of the names included the words "energy," "technology" or "applications" in them. The name of the office was ultimately changed in March 1978 to the Office of Energy and Technology Applications. One of the proposed names was the Technology Applications Program Office, which was later used for another JPL organization. Similar nomenclature files are present in the collection for Galileo and Voyager. Purple Pigeons (Folder 48). In the spring of 1976, Bruce Murray initiated a "Purple Pigeon" study of possible future missions for JPL, dramatic missions of high scientific content that would garner public support. "Purple Pigeons" were contrasted with "Gray Mice," missions of scientific interest only to a few scientific disciplines but so dull they would never gain widespread public support. Murray believed new projects would have to include pizzazz to attract public support. Included in the collection are memoranda, notes and notices for the Planetary Missions workshop run by Clarence R. "Johnny" Gates. SETI (Folder 49). The Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence (SETI) was a concentrated effort by NASA to use existing radio telescopes to scan areas of the sky looking for signals from extraterrestrial intelligence. The file includes a copy of a memorandum of understanding between JPL and Ames Research Center, dated June 1976, as well as correspondence, including a form letter from Carl Sagan. Presentation material on the "JPL SETI Project Plan" also is included. Sunfire (Folder 58). Project Sunfire was a solar-electric generator began in 1975 that was a project of the JPL Space Exploration Post 509 of the Boy Scouts of America. The generator was intended to assist the 60 inhabitants of remote Pitcairn Island, located in the south Pacific. JPL did not provide funds, only facilities for the job. In November 1977, NASA ordered JPL to evict the solar energy project from the Lab, and move it to an off-Lab site, citing unauthorized use of government property. Included in the collection are copies of news articles regarding the project, background material, and memoranda concerning the eviction of the project from the Lab. Voyager (Folders 65-86). The project most represented in the collection is Voyager, the dual probe "Grand Tour" mission to the Outer Planets. Represented in the collection are memoranda, reports and correspondence regarding launch activities, television coverage, and public affairs operations for the Voyager encounters with Jupiter and Saturn. Also included are guest lists for the Voyager 1 Jupiter encounter in March 1979 and the Voyager 1 Saturn encounter in November 1980. Also included in the collection are several drafts of the Voyager Jupiter Encounter Readiness Review. The final draft, dated December 7, 1978, was in the form of copies of Viewgraphs used for presentation material. The sections were: Introduction and Project Overview (Robert J. Parks), Public Affairs (Frank J. Colella), Flight Team Readiness (George P. Textor), Space Flight Operations (Michael Devirian), SDI Readiness (Francis M. Sturms), Science Directorate (James E. Long), Ground Data Systems (GDS) Readiness (Michael J. Sander), Mission Director's Flight Team Summary (Richard P. Laeser), Deep Space Network Readiness (Esker K. Davis), Multimission Control and Computing Center (MCCC) Operations (Michael R. Plesset), and Project Readiness Summary (Ray L. Heacock, only the title page is in the collection). During the Voyager 1 Jupiter encounter, "Jupiter Watch," a special television program, was aired over KCET-TV, the local Los Angeles Public Broadcasting channel. It was hosted by JPL'er Al Hibbs, and aired periodically from February 15-March 7, 1979. The live broadcasts lasted anywhere from five minutes for most pre-encounter broadcasts to two hours, for the closest encounter with Jupiter on March 5, 1979. Included in the collection is a list of broadcast dates along with a copy of an advertisement for the program. Also included are Public Affairs Operations Plans for various projects. The plans would include purpose, objectives, and responsibilities for various public affairs actions. Included in the collection are Public Affairs Plans for IRAS and Voyager.

Nichols, Gaylord E., Jr. Arroyo Center Administrative Files Collection, 1980-1987.
Title:
Arroyo Center Administrative Files Collection, 1980-1987.
The collection is comprised of alphabetical subject files and reports, and a Chronological File of Gaylord "Nick" Nichols, all pertaining to the Arroyo Center. The collection was divided into two series: Nick Nichols Chron. File, and Alphabetical Subject Files. Nick Nichols Chron. Files (Folders 1-2). The Chron. Files are primarily focused on the efforts and logistics of divestiture and transfer of the Arroyo Center from JPL to RAND. A majority of the correspondence in the series was written by Nichols, although there are instances of correspondence from others. One example is a draft interoffice memorandum from Lew Allen to the Senior Staff concerning JPL's obligations to individuals who accepted employment or assignments with the Arroyo Center, expecting it to continue as part of JPL. Allen wanted to assure those employees remaining at JPL that they would not face employment insecurity or other significant career penalties as a result of their Arroyo Center service. Alphabetical Subject Files (Folders 3-76). A major part of the alphabetical files also deal with the impending transfer of the Arroyo Center. The "Alternate Organizations" folder (folder 5) examines other possible organizations that had experience operating Federally Funded Research and Development Centers (FFRDCs), or would be interested at acquiring the Arroyo Center. These included SRI International and the New Mexico State University Physical Science Laboratory. There also are files for the Aerospace Corporation and RAND Corporation, as well as background materials present elsewhere in the collection. There are several folders devoted to the time when the Arroyo Center was initially called the Army Analysis Program (AAP). Included is the "Pickering Report" (folder 10), the Chairman's final report of the AAP Committee, dated January 15, 1983, written by former Lab Director William H. Pickering. The "Caltech-JPL Relations" folder (folder 22), includes a July 10, 1980 report "Reflections on the Formation of a Separate Defense Organization" written by Nichols, and a November 13, 1984 report "A Proposal for Separating the Jet Propulsion Laboratory from the Campus of the California Institute of Technology" written by Martin Goldsmith. Both short reports deal with potential constraints imposed on JPL by Caltech, especially in areas of classified defense work. The "Faculty Discussions-Media Coverage" (folder 29) is a good documentation of the overall mood of the Caltech faculty, as expressed in the minutes of faculty meetings. There also is a sampling of articles printed in local newspapers dealing with the Arroyo Center. Also included is an interview with Richard Montgomery and Robert Mackin for Universe, printed on March 9, 1984. There are several examples of different kinds of Memoranda of Understanding that involved JPL and NASA, including various MOUs between JPL and NASA, between U.S. Air Force Space Division and JPL, and between the Army and JPL. There is also a file with documentation of MOUs between NASA and other organizations, such as the U.S. Department of Energy. The "Program Planning" folder (folder 61) includes a copy of the Proposed Fiscal Year 1984 Program, presented to the Arroyo Center Policy Committee on November 14, 1983. This can be compared to the issued FY 1984 Program (folder 60), revised in July 1984. There are three different progress reports that are represented in the collection. The Monthly Activity Reports (folder 62), were issued by Richard A. Montgomery to Joann H. Langston of the Army Study Program Management Office (SPMO). These are represented in the collection for September/October 1983 to September/October 1984, although they are not inclusive. The Financial Status Reports (folder 63), were issued by the Senior Contract Administrator of the JPL Contracts Management Office. They were M. Marquess, C. Harrell, and S. M. Cargill. They were also sent to Joann Langston of SPMO. These are represented in the collection for July 1984 through February 1987, although they are not inclusive. Also in the collection is a folder of four status reports (folder 64) sent by Robert Mackin to JPL Director Lew Allen in 1984. These were titled "Weekly Status Reports" but only four are present in the collection. Of the above materials, 21 folders are stamped or marked "JPL Discreet." These have been moved to three boxes at the end of the collection. Their original positions in the collection have been marked with separation sheets. Whole files that are discreet are noted in the file folder list. There are 16 folders of Personnel Files of people working for the Arroyo Center. While these files are not stamped "JPL Discreet" they have been treated as such due to documentation of salary and personal issues.

Jet Propulsion Laboratory (U.S.). Arroyo Center. Arroyo Center Report Collection, 1983-1985.
Title:
Arroyo Center Report Collection, 1983-1985.
The collection is comprised of the contents of two binders of Reference Papers documenting the Arroyo Center, and publications of the Arroyo Center written during the time it was operated by JPL. There were twenty-seven titled Arroyo Center reports, published and planned. Twenty of the twenty-one published reports are represented in the collection. Missing are two General Reports, listed as being not distributed; one Planning Report and three Systems and Technology Reports listed as being in press; and one Economics and Cost Growth Report. The Compendium of Reference Papers (folders 2-4) is divided into twelve segments, with a table of contents at the front. It contains valuable information on the formation of the Arroyo Center, the 1982 Task Plan, numerous proposal reports, information on the Pickering Committee, and communications with the Caltech faculty, up to December 1983, when the binder was put together. The Arroyo Center reports are organized by subject, in the order that they were listed in the publication listing. They are organized as follows: I. General, II. Planning, III. Economics and Growth, IIIa. General, IIIb. Case Studies; IV. Systems Technology, V. Training. The various case study reports deal with the development and cost history of the Black Hawk Helicopter, M1 Abrams Tank, M2/M3 Bradley Fighting Vehicle System, AH-64 Apache Helicopter, and Patriot Missile System. Of special note is "The Jet Propulsion Laboratory Arroyo Center 1982-84: Summary Report," (folder 5), dated January 31, 1985. It includes background information on the Arroyo Center and a recruiting brochure originally located in a pocket on the inside front cover. The brochure has been placed in a separate folder immediately following the report (folder 6). Also of historical significance is a short report "Project Vista and Nuclear Weapons in Europe," (folder 9), written by Caltech History Professor David C. Elliott. Project Vista was a study of the defense of Western Europe conducted mainly in the summer of 1951. The project was proposed by the U.S. Army and undertaken by Caltech. In June 2002, three missing reports not present in the collection were added to the JPL History Collection.

Albee, Arden L. The Bruce C. Murray and Charles H. Terhune, Jr. Director's Office Papers Collection, 1971-1979.
Title:
The Bruce C. Murray and Charles H. Terhune, Jr. Director's Office Papers Collection, 1971-1979.
The collection consists of correspondence and memoranda of both incoming and outgoing materials from the Office of the Director. The inclusive dates of the collection are 1971 to 1979, although the bulk dates are 1977 to 1978. The collection is divided into five series: ALD Memoranda and Letters (series 1), Vogt Report Correspondence (series 2), Miscellaneous Memoranda and Correspondence (series 3), Director's General Files (series 4), and Director's Mailbox (series 5). ALD Memoranda and Letters (boxes 1-3; folders 1-32). The series is filed alphabetically, and includes important figures in JPL line, project, operations, and administrative management, not just the Assistant Laboratory Directors (ALDs). The series primarily consists of correspondence and weekly reports, predominantly from 1978. Copies in the collection are either those of Murray or Terhune. The file list of personnel in the series, along with their titles and section numbers in mid 1978 is available in the hardcopy register, located in the JPL Archives. Vogt Report Correspondence (Box 4; folders 33-54). In July 1975, Caltech President Harold Brown and JPL Director William H. Pickering appointed a joint Lab-Campus committee, headed by Professor of Physics, later Provost, Rochus E. ("Robbie") Vogt and JPL's Jack N. James. The committee investigated the interaction between JPL and Caltech in an effort to stimulate more constructive interaction between the two. The committee was composed of twelve people, six of whom were JPL personnel. The report, A Study of Relations Between the Jet Propulsion Laboratory and the Campus of the California Institute of Technology, was published on April 5, 1976. The report was informally known as the "Vogt Report" or the "Orange Report" due to the orange color of the cover. In an April 8, 1976 memorandum to Murray, William H. Pickering noted that although the committee was split evenly between JPL and Caltech, the final report reflected mainly the opinions of the Campus members of the committee. The report itself is not in this collection; however, it is located in collection JPL 173. The findings of the Vogt Report proved to be controversial. One response to it, a series of memos written by R. W. Davies, was titled "Where to Bite the Orange?" Parts 1 and 2 of the memo are in the collection (folder 34). Also included are the various reactions of various JPL people regarding the Orange Report. JPL personnel made a conscious effort to respond to all twenty issues raised by the Orange Report. Each issue was commented upon in memoranda, which are located in the collection (folders 35-54). Miscellaneous Memoranda/Correspondence (boxes 5-10; folders 55-121). This series includes JPL people that were not included in the earlier series, as well as prominent NASA people. They are arranged alphabetically, with individual files for people with multiple pieces of correspondence. Director's Office Master Files (boxes 11-16; folders 122-167.) The files in the series consist of memoranda, correspondence, and reports, filed alphabetically by subject. The files are for A through O only. The files for P through Z were not included with the accession. The files are from 1971 to 1979, although the bulk dates are 1978 to 1979. The files include: Affirmative Action Program (folders 122-126). This includes the 1971 program headed by Jack James, the 1974 program headed by Carl Raggio, and the 1978 program headed by Jerome E. Taylor. Flight Science Memoranda on Reorganization (folders 145-146). In 1978, Murray considered reorganizing Division 32, Earth and Space Sciences Division, creating a new division, Division 38, the Operational Systems Division. An April 4, 1978 memorandum from Murray sketched out various possibilities. The memorandum generated a fair number of responses, also represented in the collection. The reorganization was enacted in October 1978. Ion Drive (folders 151-152). These two folders include memoranda and reports regarding a Comet/Ion Drive Program Development Plan. Mars (folder 159). Included in this folder are files on prospective Mars Airplane and Mars Sample Return Missions. Director's Mailbox (boxes 17-18; folders 168-247). The Director's Mailbox was instituted by Murray in a Director's Letter he wrote to the Lab on April 1, 1976, the day he became Lab Director. The Director's Mailbox was intended to provide for direct written communication between an individual JPL employee and the Director to present new ideas and to express general or specific reactions to existing or planned policies. Murray had expressed that correspondence to the Director's Mailbox would normally not be answered, but would provide a way for Murray to gauge general Laboratory feelings, to receive new suggestions, and to learn of unanticipated consequences of planned activities. The files are arranged chronologically. Missing are files from April through August 1976, and October 1976. By far the issue of most concern was the parking situation on the Lab. Of the above materials, 15 folders have documents stamped or marked "JPL Discreet." These folders have been moved into to a box at the end of the collection. Their original positions have been marked with separation sheets.

Holladay, Margaret Huntington. Papers of Margaret Huntington Holladay, ca.1821-1969 (bulk 1900-1969)
Title:
Papers of Margaret Huntington Holladay, ca.1821-1969 (bulk 1900-1969)
The Appointment books/address books series is arranged alphabetically by author. The items in this series chronicle the day-to-day activities of Collis Huntington Holladay, Margaret Huntington Holladay, and Henry Edwards Huntington. They span from 1925-1969. The Family Records series is arranged alphabetically and contains such items as application forms submitted by various family members to such organizations as the: Society of Colonial Wars in the State of California, Sons of the American Revolution: California Society, and the Society of Daughters of Holland Dames, Descendants of the Ancient and Honorable Families of New Netherland. These applications show how the family member applying is eligible for group membership by tracing the family lineage back to the family member who can qualify them to be part of that group. In addition, this series includes genealogical tables and family genealogies documenting the lineage of the Huntington Holladay family. The items are grouped by surname Cresap, Holladay, Ord, Saunders, and Vincent. In some way all of the families are related to one another. Items found within this grouping include personal narratives both hand written and typed by various family members, birth and death dates of family members, family trees, and obituaries. Some of the items in this series date back to the 1600's. One item worth noting is a genealogical chart from the Ord family. The chart is very comprehensive starting with James Ord who was born in England, April 1786 and later moved to Omaha, Nebraska with his wife Rebecca Ruth Cresap on January 25, 1873. The Ords are the ancestors of the Huntington Holladay family and the chart traces the lineage up until the time it was made in 1936. Also in this series are newspaper clippings which mention the Huntington Holladay family, a biography of Henry E. Huntington, documents pertaining to the Huntington Family Association and their annual meetings, and lastly, obituaries relating to the deaths of Alfred O. Larkin and Collis P. Huntington. The Financial Records series is arranged alphabetically and includes board member files from what appears to be the neuro-psychiatric clinic that Margaret served as president, income tax documents relating to the Collis and Margaret H. Holladay estate between the years 1950 and 1962, indentures and agreements made by the Huntington and Holladay family between 1853 and 1896, tax deductible gifts made by Collis and Margaret between 1954-1962, the appraisal of the Henry E. Huntington estate made by the State of California after his death in 1927, the distribution of Alice Larkin Toulmin's assets, a blank Collis H. Huntington check, taxes and estates bulletins, trust and will brochures, and a list of subscribers for preferred stock from the Mission Playhouse Corporation in 1926. The Correspondence series is arranged alphabetically and includes letters between Collis Jr. (nicknamed Hunt) and his parents (Margaret and Collis Holladay) from 1950 to 1952. During this time, Hunt was studying at a school on the East coast in the Boston area while his family lived in San Marino, California. The series also includes a number of letters from Annie B. Lewis (Margaret's sister) who traveled around the South and East coasts of the United Sates with her husband, Bill. In addition, there are letters between various Huntington - Holladay family members making family genealogy inquiries, and letters between Margaret Huntington and the California Institute of Technology regarding scholarships provided by the family to students attending the school. The photographs series is arranged alphabetically. Within the series are various photo and copy negatives of relatives from the Huntington family including images of Samuel W. Holladay, Collis P. Huntington, Howard E. Huntington, and Willard H. Wright. There are also three photographs of Harry Huntington Pech accompanied by a letter sent to the family asking if there was any relation between the two. The series includes images of the Holladay residence, the Henry E. Huntington estate in San Marino, the Huntington Mansion in Oneonta New York, pictures from Yosemite, photos from the fires in Oneonta in 1908, and a daguerreotype of an unidentified man. There is also an album that contains images of Henry E. Huntington and his Estate and Library in San Marino, Ca. The album is too large to be stored with this series and has been placed in oversize storage. The Ephemera series is arranged alphabetically and includes such items as a seating chart from a dinner party hosted by Henry E. Huntington featuring such distinguished guests as the crown prince and princess of Sweden and Denmark. Labels that were attached to the bottom of J.H. Belter & Co furniture, articles and newspaper clippings relating to flower, lawn, and tree care, a leaflet titled "Land for the Million!" which contains information about buying and purchasing tracts of land, a map of Lido Isle in Newport Beach as of 1939, mixed drink recipes, a list of posters of the first and second liberty loans compiled by Brentano's who specialize in quotations on books, a summons addressed to John Thomas Viscount Sidney to attend the coronation of George IV on August 1, 1820, roster of membership from the Rotary Club of Los Angeles dating 1942-1943, listing the members of the rotary and their contact information, a greetings card from Collis and Margaret to father, invitations to various family members, certificates of membership to Mr. and Mrs. Edmund Burke Holladay, and miscellaneous items such as a notepad from the Vancouver Hotel, a pass to the 1907 Oneonta Fair, and a small notebook. There is also an empty black case which has been placed in oversize storage.

Title:
John Archibald Wheeler Papers, 1880-2008 1880-2008
There are correspondence, notebooks, reports, recordings, etc. of this award-winning physicist and pioneer theorist on the existence of black holes. A student of Karl Herzfeld at Johns Hopkins University, John Archibald Wheeler studied nuclear fission with Neils Bohr. The numerous volumes of research notebooks in the collection, Wheeler's daily record of calculations, meetings attended and conversations held about his work, are of primary significance. Among other subjects, they cover physics, nucleonics, quantum electrodynamics, and relativity. The correspondence in the collection contains many personal evaluations of scientists (subject to restrictions on use), as well as Wheeler's contributions to promoting physics and scientific education and training in general. There are important series relating to his participation in the 1950s on the Committee on Scientific and Technical Personnel of NATO, headed by Senator Henry M. Jackson, and his organizational work on the Joint Committee of the American Physical Society and the American Philosophical Society on the History of Theoretical Physics in the Twentieth Century.

Parker, E. N. (Eugene Newman), 1927-. Response to History of Geophysics Survey, 1997.
Title:
Response to History of Geophysics Survey, 1997.
Response to a survey of approximately 250 leading geophysicists worldwide, conducted by the American Institute of Physics (AIP) Center for History of Physics and the Committee on History of Geophysics of the American Geophysical Union in 1997. Recipients were asked to send copies of their curriculum vitae and a list of publications as Part One of the survey and were then asked to discuss their entry into science in general and geophysics specifically as a career; how their scientific achievements came about and major efforts they were involved in which did not achieve the hoped for results; changes from one discipline to another; funding sources; the role of other disciplines in their own research; their work as educators; and their involvement in geophysics-related institutions. Contents include Part One of the Questionnaire, a letter, curriculum vitae, publications list, an autobiographical statement entitled "Looking back over the years", and five published or to-be-published articles. Parker recounts his childhood interests and his graduate studies at California Institute of Technology. Noteworthy figures that influenced his career include Walter M. Elsasser, S. Chandrasekhar, and J. A. Simpson. Parker clearly establishes his divergence from the scientific community over the theory of the magnetosphere.

This is a large collection of research notes, 1936-1990, and correspondence, 1974-1990. The bulk of the material is from 1950-1987, and relates to desert ecology. It is not known what happened to early correspondence not related to the experiments. All of the early material is research notes with correspondence and data. The subjects of the research notes are Went's experiments on the varied aspects of climate which determine plant behavior. His experimental plants were the crop plants such as tomatoes, potatoes, and peas; orchids; and wild desert plants such as Yucca. Documented in these papers are a whole range of experiments on physiologic processes of these plants that he conducted in climate controlled greenhouses, called phytotrons.

Title:
Oral history interview with Phillip A. Sharp 2003 January 28, May 29, and November 20
Phillip A. Sharp's oral history interview begins with a discussion of his family, then discusses his childhood in Falmouth, Kentucky. He received his BA in chemistry and math from Union College in 1966. Then, Sharp went on to earn his Ph.D. in chemistry from the University of Illinois. Sharp went to Caltech initially for his post-doctoral studies, but after three years he joined James Watson's virology lab at the Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory to learn more about cell biology. In 1974, Sharp accepted an invitation at the newly created Center for Cancer Research at MIT. In 1977, Sharp and Richard J. Roberts discovered split genes, which led to the discovery of RNA splicing for which they shared the Nobel Prize in 1993. Sharp eventually became head of the biology department and director of the Center for Cancer Research. Moreover, Sharp was instrumental in the establishment of one of the first biotech companies, Genentech, Inc and he helped establish Biogen, Inc. Sharp concludes the interview with reflections on the significance of the neuroscience research community that currently surrounds and includes Harvard University.

Felberg, Fred H. Central Engineering Building Collection, 1983-1992.
Title:
Central Engineering Building Collection, 1983-1992.
The collection is composed of correspondence, reports, and drawings involving the formulation, construction and occupation of the JPL Central Engineering Building. The collection is arranged chronologically. Before the novel agreement at funding the new construction was agreed upon, several other alternatives were studied. A preliminary review of alternate approaches to acquiring a major engineering office building at Oak Grove dated March 29, 1983 is present in the collection in the "Miscellaneous Documents" file for 1983 (folder 1). Five alternative sources to funding were examined: NASA Construction of Facilities (CofF) funding on existing Oak Grove land, NASA CofF on new Oak Grove land, private investor funding on Oak Grove land, private investor funding on adjacent private land, and Caltech funding on Oak Grove land. Various drafts of the memo of understanding between NASA and Caltech regarding the funding and future payment of the CEB are also present in the collection (folders 2, 11). NASA Liaison to the project was General Billie J. McGarvey, NASA Director of Facilities Engineering and Computer Management Division. There are several reports and draft proposals in the collection regarding the CEB that were sent to McGarvey. A copy of the 1985 NASA Appropriations Bill passed by Congress in June 1984 is also present in the collection (folder 9). This was required to authorize NASA and Caltech to alter their contract to provide funding for the CEB. The Central Engineering Building proved to be a good test for alternate ways of funding the construction of new facilities than the traditional "Construction of Facilities" process. There were several comparisons between the CEB and other buildings on the Lab that were built around the same time, such as the Earth and Space Science Laboratory and the Microdevices Laboratory. The comparisons proved that the alternate method of financing new construction was both faster and cheaper than the previous Construction of Facilities method of funding. These comparisons are in the collection in various evaluations of the Central Engineering Building (folder 14.).

Murray, Bruce C., 1931-. Bruce C. Murray Collection, 1975-1982.
Title:
Bruce C. Murray Collection, 1975-1982.
The collection includes correspondence, memoranda, notes, speech transcripts, photographs, and copies of newspaper and journal articles relating to JPL Director Bruce Murray. Some of the material was apparently collected by Frank J. Colella, JPL Public Affairs Officer. During processing the collection has been divided into three series: Subject Files, Senior Staff Memoranda, and Speech Material. Subject Files (folders 1-19). The subject files are composed of memoranda, correspondence, photographs, and copies of newspaper articles involving the Office of the Director during Murray's time as Lab Director. The subject files are arranged chronologically by subject. Included in the Subject Files is a folder involving the Memorandum of Understanding between NASA and Caltech regarding JPL, revised in 1978. Included are two annotated versions of the memorandum, reflecting concerns with JPL looking elsewhere than NASA for work. A 1968 memorandum of understanding between NASA and Caltech expanded JPL's role in transferring space technology and engaging in non-NASA work. Specific guidelines for work with non-NASA sponsors were agreed to in 1975. The December 1978 memorandum of understanding affirmed JPL as the principal NASA center for solar system exploration, and, more importantly, broadened JPL's scope in non-space endeavors, including energy and defense work. A meeting agenda of the JPL Advisory Council for April 9-10, 1981 provides a good background of Murray's attempts to revitalize the deep space exploration program beginning in late 1980. The JPL Advisory Council was created shortly after Murray became JPL Director. It replaced and expanded a previous visiting committee. Membership was intended to balance between Caltech Trustees, senior Caltech faculty and "prestigious 'wise persons' unaffiliated with Caltech." Upon Murray's resignation as JPL Director, it was decided that the JPL Advisory Committee would be disbanded. Included is a detailed chronology of contacts made between Murray and various individuals involved with Congress, NASA, the aerospace industry, and the Office of Management and Budget. These documents are located in the JPL Advisory Council folder. Also of note are folders concerning Murray's retirement from the Lab in 1982. Included are notes regarding a short humorous skit, organized by Roger Bourke, and arranged by various JPL personnel. The play, "King Bruce and the Seven Years War" was a thinly disguised depiction of various events that occurred while Murray was at the helm of JPL, transposed to a medieval setting. The events depicted "King Bruce" of "Jetland" and included easily identifiable characters as "Sir Jack" (Jack James) and "Lady Victoria" (Vicki Melikan), and objects, such as the "Holy Grail" (SETI). Included in the collection are several memoranda and rough drafts of material. The final draft of the skit is not included. Senior Staff Memoranda (folders 20-22). The Senior Staff was composed of individuals comprising the upper management functions of the Laboratory. The Senior Staff originally included the Director, Deputy Director, and their immediate staffs, as well as the Assistant Laboratory Directors and their Deputies, Project Managers, and Managers of Technical and Business Administration Divisions. The exact number and composition of the Senior Staff varied. The materials in the series primarily include memoranda, either addressed directly to the Senior Staff or forwarded to the Senior Staff. Also included are remarks and testimony to Congressional committees and subcommittees, and standard practice and policy statements. An "Administrative Data Directory," dated August 1981, compiled by D. E. Wallis. The Administrative Data Directory contained descriptions of datasets that were part of the JPL Institutional Database. Speech Material (folders 23-53). Included are rough drafts, unedited transcripts, and edited transcripts of Murray's "State of the Lab" talks, "Mid-Year Report" talks and periodic talks to management personnel. The State of the Lab talks, although present in the JPL History Collection, have been retained in this collection since the material includes rough drafts of speeches, with editing remarks throughout several speeches. Murray used the talks to alert management personnel about new directives and organizations, such as the Advisory Committee for Women, unveiled during the December 14, 1976 talk. Murray also attempted to answer questions, such as at the August 6, 1976 talk, where there were questions about the reorganization that Murray had instituted earlier. Probably the biggest revelation Murray made at a State of the Lab talk was his resignation on the April 2, 1982, effective June 30, 1982. Also included are transcripts of selected off-Lab speeches that Murray delivered, including the Caltech Commencement Address in June 1979. There are a few speeches delivered by others that are also represented in the collection. Three folders contain documents that are stamped or marked "JPL Discreet." The original positions of JPL Discreet material in the collection have been marked with separation sheets. The material has been moved to a box at the end of the collection.

Title:
Bruce C. Murray Chronological File Collection, 1976-1982.
The collection includes correspondence, memoranda, proposal summaries, and policy statements, all signed either by Bruce Murray or JPL Deputy Director Charles H. Terhune, Jr. Several of the policy statements and proposal summaries are represented only with the signature sheets. The early part of the collection, up until mid-1980 primarily documents the average day-to-day running of the Laboratory. Most of the documents are rather routine, although some personal correspondence is in the collection from those years. Unlike the other chronological file collections (cf. JPL 198, 200, 202, 203), there are no indices for 1976 to mid-1980. It also appears as if Murray delegated many day-to-day functions of the running of the Laboratory to his Deputy Director, as many of the documents from 1976 to 1980 were signed by Terhune. The files have more substance beginning in mid-1980. An index for October-December 1981 is filed at the beginning of October 1981. Beginning in January 1982, an index for each month is filed at the beginning of each month. Murray communicated with several NASA personnel on a routine basis. These included Anthony J. Calio, NASA Office of Space and Terrestrial Applications; John E. Naugle, NASA Chief Engineer, to 1979; Robert A. Frosch, NASA Administrator, 1977-81; and James M. Beggs, NASA Administrator, 1981-85. There is some indication that in the early days of his directorship Murray still needed some additional preparation in administering some aspects of the Laboratory. One example of this is a memo, dated May 3, 1976, from Murray to the Senior Staff where Murray admitted that there were some Civil Systems projects that he was not familiar with, and additional background presentations would be needed. The fallout of the Vogt-James Committee on JPL-Campus Interactions Final Report (a.k.a. the "Orange Report") is represented with Parts 1 and 2 of "Where to Bite the Orange?" by R. W. Davies, an undated response to the Orange Report. Murray expressed surprise at the response at both JPL and Caltech with the Orange Report in an interoffice memorandum dated May 4, 1976. There was also some concern about the potential loss of the capability to do "in-house" flight projects at JPL. An April 29, 1976 memo from ALD of Technical Divisions Geoff Robillard to the Executive Council noted that after the launching of Voyager, support for JPL's capability to acquire spacecraft by the subsystem contract mode would disappear. Represented in the collection is Robillard's original memo, attached to a May 5, 1976 memo from Murray to the Executive Council addressing the issue. In June 1976, a series of correspondence from Bruce Murray to various scientists, regarding the "out-of-the-ecliptic mission to study the sun and the interplanetary medium in three dimensions," a joint effort between NASA and the European Space Agency. Murray asked for people to be members of the Science Working Group that was being formed, and co-chaired by Lennard Fisk and Marcia Neugebauer. The mission was later named the International Solar Polar Mission, eventually called Ulysses. Throughout the collection there is correspondence from Murray to various scientists, asking for participation in various Science Working Group projects. In January 1977, Murray wrote several people asking for participation in a Mars Science Working Group to be headed by Dr. Tim Mutch of Brown University, with Geoff Briggs of JPL as Acting Project Scientist. This follow-on to the Viking Program was envisioned as an orbiter/rover combination, with a launch in 1984. Letters were sent to 16 scientists. In November 1978, a similar series of correspondence is in the collection, with the formation of the Comet Science Working Group. One example of the "business as usual" type of memoranda that dominates the early years of the collection, as well as serving as a precursor to the future turmoil at JPL, a memorandum dated July 26, 1976, from Deputy Director Terhune to Distribution is titled "Guidelines for Employee Termination." Due to the anticipated reduction in JPL business volume in FY '77 and FY '78, the prospect of a significant number of layoff actions was imminent. The normal outplacement service that was available by Caltech to employees who were facing termination was expanded. An Outplacement Center was established at the Caltech Industrial Relations Center where professional help in career planning, the preparation of resumes, job interview strategy, as well as office space, telephone, secretarial and photocopy services would be available. The terminated personnel were administratively transferred to JPL organization 890, later changed to 090. A letter from Murray to John E. Naugle, NASA Office of the Administrator dated August 27, 1976 was a foreshadowing of later troubles for JPL's Planetary Program. Murray commented on the draft of the NASA Five Year Plan dated August 19, 1976, noting NASA's pessimistic plans for lunar and planetary exploration in future years, along with a lack in any continuation of Mars exploration. Murray concluded the letter by stating that if the budget for lunar and planetary missions was decreased, "I am certain that we can only anticipate an abrupt end to the activity in the near future." In January 1977 Murray agreed to transfer the Ranger Block III spacecraft in storage at JPL to the National Air and Space Museum. This transaction is documented in a letter from Murray to NASM Director Michael Collins. A March 3, 1977 letter from Murray to Caltech Provost Robert F. Christy, Murray comments on how valuable Ed Stone has been as MJS Project Scientist, and how he had unusual ability to effectively organize his and other peoples' efforts. According to Murray, Stone's activities constituted a model of Laboratory-Campus collaboration. In April 1977, Murray wrote to twelve engineers involved in oil production inviting them to serve on a review board to assist JPL with a NASA-sponsored study aimed at identifying possible applications of aerospace technology to petroleum production. This is indicative of the changing priorities at JPL beginning in the late 1970s. In a July 8, 1977 letter from Murray to Noel W. Hinners, NASA Associate Administrator for Space Science, Murray lobbied for a collaboration between the Venus Orbiting Imaging Radar and a French-Soviet Union Joint Mission to Venus, planned for 1983. Attached to the letter was a proposal written by Jacques Blamont of the Centre National de'Etudes Spatiales (CNES). It was proposed that the Venus Orbiting Imaging Radar (VOIR) mission and the Deep Space Network (DSN) be used as a tracking and telemetry radar for a French-Russian Venus balloon mission, while the Russian Orbiter could be used as a relay for VOIR. There were additional occultation and geophysics experiments that could be carried out by both missions as well. In the end, VOIR was cancelled and eventually given a new start as the Venus Radar Mapper, later named Magellan, and the French-Russian balloon mission to Venus became one aspect of the Vega 1 and 2 spacecraft, which encountered Venus on their way to Halley's Comet in 1985. In March 1982, the issue was brought up again, with a proposal of a NASA/CNES launch on Ariane 4. A letter from Murray to Blamont dated March 5, 1982 is represented in the collection. Murray reported that a low altitude balloon with imaging would very seriously strain JPL's technical capabilities, and would probably be rejected by NASA on grounds of technical uncertainty. Additionally, hardware availability posed a problem. The possible use of hardware from the Pioneer Venus mission was proposed, but Hughes Aircraft Company had very little surplus hardware available. In the file for September 1977 is an article published in Science, "Extraterrestrial Intelligence: An Observational Approach," by Bruce Murray, Samuel Gulkis and Robert Edelson. The collection includes the edited version, with a cover letter to Philip Abelson, editor of Science dated September 14, 1977. An October 3, 1977 letter from Murray to General R. H. Curtin, asked him to reconsider a U.S. Army proposal to locate its National Training Center at Ft. Irwin, CA, adjacent to JPL's DSN installation at Goldstone. Murray noted that the use by the relocated center of electronic warfare (EW) devices would have the potential to totally disrupt communications with costly and scientifically important deep space missions. Murray cited the occurrence on October 28, 1976, when 30 to 45 minutes of Viking mission data were lost due to suspected EW jamming. Attached to the letter was a copy of part of a topographical map showing the locations of the DSN facilities at Goldstone in relation to Ft. Irwin. In February 1978, Murray instituted the Distinguished Visiting Scientist program at JPL. The purpose of the program was to bring to the Lab on a short term or part-time basis, leading scientists who would enrich the Laboratory's programs. The first Distinguished Visiting Scientist (DVS) was Giuseppe Colombo of the Astrophysical Observatory at the Smithsonian Institution. A February 7, 1978 interoffice memorandum from Donald G. Rea to Murray noted that the DVS should report managerially to the Director, and should have his own budget and should be accountable only to the Director for the manner in which he spends his funds. The JPL Office of Technology and Space Program Development was assigned responsibility for assuring adequate support. Another attempt at bringing in new people into the Lab was in August 1978, when a proposed postdoctoral program at JPL was proposed by Rochus E. Vogt of Caltech and Moustafa Chahine, Manager of the Earth and Space Sciences Division at JPL. The program was to use recent Ph.D. recipients from universities for limited duration positions for scientists and technologists at JPL. It was argued that the use of postdoctoral positions would provide additional strength, youth, and elements of change and new thinking to the programs of JPL scientists and technologists. It would also potentially be an excellent tool for improved Caltech-JPL interactions, with some postdoctoral fellows to hold joint appointments with the Campus. The collection includes two proposals for postdoctoral programs at JPL, written by Vogt and Chahine, as well as a cover sheet to the JPL Executive Council, written August 10, 1978. An October 16, 1978 letter from Caltech Professor Kip Thorne to Bruce Murray related to Professor Stephen Hawking. Thorne reported that Hawking, who was suffering from a debilitating neurological illness, had reached the point where it had made him nearly incoherent. Thorne asked Murray if there would be a possibility of JPL assisting in designing an amplification and filter system for Hawking's voice. Murray passed the request along to Fred Felberg and Benn Martin. In a November 8, 1978 letter, Murray told Thorne that the problem had been given to Doug O'Handley, manager of JPL's Biomedical Technology Program. In a letter to NASA Chief Scientist John E. Naugle dated January 22, 1979, Murray sketched out a background and history of the NASA-JPL institutional relationship. The various NASA organizations that JPL reported to in the past were noted. There also was a description of the NASA-JPL relationship in 1979, as well as various alternatives for strengthening the NASA-JPL relationship. Earlier in the month there was some effort to organize a joint retreat between JPL personnel and personnel from the NASA Office of Space Science, in order to strengthen relations. There is a February 5, 1980 Memorandum of Understanding between JPL and the World Space Foundation (WSF). JPL agreed to aid and support WSF in conducting a test flight of a solar sailing vehicle. JPL would conduct spacecraft environmental qualification tests in JPL facilities, provide an instrumentation package to monitor the sail, and to provide computer services to the WSF, while the WSF would have complete responsibility for sail vehicle design, fabrication and launch vehicle interface, and would be responsible for mission operations. The MOU was signed by Bruce Murray and Robert L. Staehle of WSF. Two items that illustrate Murray's growing distress of the U.S. space program can be found in letters of April 1980. The first letter, dated April 21, 1980, Murray invited Freeman Dyson to visit JPL and help with solar sail and interstellar propulsion studies. The second letter, written April 23, 1980 to Arthur C. Clarke, Murray wrote: "Back here on Earth, 1980, that wonderful reaching out of the 1960's and 1970's to explore our solar system is faltering badly. Cost overruns and delays of the Space Shuttle have now caused two-year delays (at least) in the launches of the only new authorized missions, Galileo and Solar Polar. For similar reasons, nothing else can get started. I must sadly report that rather than ushering in 'The Promise of Space,' the Shuttle development at this point may constitute the greatest threat to space exploration since President Eisenhower's views and the Vanguard launch vehicle project." Another letter that is indicative of this point of view was written by Clark R. Chapman of the Planetary Science Institute to Thomas A. Mutch, NASA Associate Administrator for Space Science, dated August 4, 1980. Chapman expressed his concerns of plans to make cuts in Research and Analysis in the Planetary Program. Chapman called the idea of a freeze or cut in the Planetary Program due to an arbitrary budget ceiling as short-sighted and irrational. Chapman viewed the idea of gutting the program to win VOIR as "suicidal," and called for support of both VOIR and Halley-Tempel 2 missions. A copy of the letter is represented in the collection, along with a brief note that Chapman wrote to Lou Friedman. On August 14, 1980, Friedman sent copies of the Chapman letter to Bruce Murray and others at JPL. A letter written by Bruce Murray to Counselor to the President Edwin Meese III, dated January 20, 1981, the day of President Reagan's inauguration, began with Murray pulling no punches. "The future of American space exploration is in real jeopardy." Murray lobbied for a new start for a Halley's Comet mission, and a change in policy regarding the development of the Space Shuttle. Another letter indicating Murray's attempts to gain support for the Galileo spacecraft was to Carol Lane, a professional staff member of the U.S. Senate Subcommittee on Science Technology. Murray's letter described the possible defense technology implications of Galileo, attempting to justify the project by noting the technology that would be gained for Defense. The Voyager Project is barely mentioned in these chronological files until the Voyager 1 flyby of Saturn. On November 21, 1980, a series of form letters were sent to various Directors of NASA Centers and other prominent government officials, such as Secretary of the Air Force Hans Mark, Secretary of Defense Harold Brown, and Presidential Science Advisor Frank Press, enclosing several lithographs of Saturn taken by Voyager 1 during its October flyby. In March 1981, Murray lobbied Acting Associate Administrator for Space Science Andrew J. Stofan to add Carl Sagan in consideration for a Distinguished Public Service Award, for his contributions to Voyager and space exploration in general. On May 8, 1981, Murray notified Sagan that he was selected to receive NASA's Distinguished Public Service Medal, to be presented at a special Voyager awards ceremony at JPL on June 2, 1981. There was some effort to invite President Ronald Reagan to JPL to personally witness the Voyager 2 encounter with Saturn in August 1981. Included in the collection are details on the Voyager encounter of Saturn that were sent via fax to Science Advisor George Keyworth to pass along to the President. In early August 1981 word was received that the President was not going to attend. Several of his representatives did attend the encounter at JPL, including Counselor to the President Ed Meese. In September 1981, Murray sent copies of lithographs taken of Saturn to several members of Congress who did not attend the Voyager 2 encounter. The increasing role of the Department of Defense in JPL projects is documented in a December 9, 1980 report "Current Status of Defense Work Policies, Organizational Approach, and Work Content at JPL," prepared by Jack James. The potential consequences of increased defense work were explored, and the steps taken by JPL and Caltech to ensure that Defense work size, extent of classification, and appropriateness were controlled and regulated within the framework of Caltech and JPL's policies and interests. The report is represented in the collection as an attachment to the Senoir Staff from Murray, dated December 16, 1980. There is a letter dated August 25, 1981, from Murray to the widow of Thomas Mutch, who died in a mountain climbing accident in the Himalayas in October 1980. Murray sent a collection of photos of Mutch from JPL staff members, and told her of renaming the Viking 1 landing site as the "Thomas A. Mutch Memorial Station." Attempts at lobbying for a Halley's Comet mission continued throughout the Autumn of 1981. One letter in the collection, dated September 11, 1981, is from Murray to Newsweek columnist George F. Will. Will had earlier written in favor of the Halley's Comet mission, and Murray tried to pique his interest further by proposing a mission feature of bringing back a sample of the Comet to Earth. By October 1981, the situation regarding future prospects of JPL was potentially grim. According to Murray in "Challenge Facing JPL," a background paper for Caltech faculty discussion dated October 20, 1981, there were three alternate directions possible for JPL: a continuation of present policies, as a NASA Center with significant DOD work, or as a DOD Laboratory. Murray considered the second possibility the only practical direction for JPL at that time. On November 3, 1981, Murray wrote to NASA Deputy Administrator Hans Mark, reporting that full approval for substantially expanding DOD programs at JPL was granted by the Caltech Administration and Board of Trustees. Despite the impending storm clouds regarding the future of space exploration that were no longer merely on the horizon, Murray organized a workshop of fifteen scientists to stimulate a few good new or renewed ideas about carrying out important science in deep space during the second half of the 1980s. A rough concept paper put together by Murray and James D. Burke, dated November 30, 1981, was included along with cover letters to the invited participants, which included Jacques Blamont, Freeman Dyson, James Van Allen, Von Eshleman and Larry Soderblom. Included in the collection is a copy of a news article dated December 2, 1981 quoting Presidential Science Advisor George Keyworth as recommending that all planetary exploration be cancelled for at least the next decade. Also included are letters from Murray to Arnold Beckman alerting Beckman of this possible disaster, as well as a letter to Keyworth and a draft letter to Ed Meese asking him "not to allow the emasculation of the technical and scientific capabilities of the Jet Propulsion Laboratory." Murray announced his resignation as Director, effective June 30, 1982, at the end of his "State of the Lab" address on April 2, 1982. The remainder of the Chronological File for April 1982 is dominated by letters to people notifying them of his decision. Represented in the collection are slightly over 100 letters to people, including members of Congress, Caltech personnel, NASA personnel, NASA Center Directors, members of the Faculty Board and Oversight Committee for JPL, and other scientists and friends of Murray's. JPL Discreet materials Forty-six folders contain documents that are stamped or marked "JPL Discreet" or "SEB Discreet." The original positions of Discreet material in the collection have been marked with separation sheets. The material has been moved to a box at the end of the collection. The vast majority of Discreet materials in the collection are either Source Evaluation Board memoranda or Noncompetitive Source Board memoranda. These were both pretty common documents, and nearly every month has at least a few Discreet documents. The SEB memoranda are usually from Terhune, while the Noncompetitive Source Board memoranda are from the Manager of the Procurement Division, Daryal T. Gant, to Phil Click, Fred Felberg, and either Robert J. Parks, William Bayley or H. M. Schurmeier. There are a few memoranda that were from Acting Division Manager Fraser Draper, or starting in 1979, Deputy Division Manager John Heie.

Dawson, Kirk M., 1938-. Executive Council Collection, 1986-2001.
Title:
Executive Council Collection, 1986-2001.
The collection is comprised of agenda, memoranda, correspondence, presentation material, and other documents relating to the Executive Council. The collection is divided into three series: Weekly Meetings, Retreats and Annual Meetings, and Miscellaneous. Most of the collection appears to have originated from Associate Director Kirk Dawson, Deputy Director Larry Dumas, or Technical Executive Assistant Kent Frewing. Dawson had multiple presentations during most retreats. Executive Council Weekly Meetings (Boxes 1-19; folders 1-272). This series is composed of agenda, memoranda, correspondence, handout materials, and other documentation regarding weekly meetings of the Executive Council. The span dates are from January 1994 to August 2001, and the original chronological order has been honored. Also included, beginning from October 2000, are handwritten notes from the meetings that appear to be written by Kent Frewing, Technical Executive Assistant in the Office of the Director, who was recorder of the sessions. Executive Council Retreats/Annual Meetings (Boxes 20-32; folders 273-375). This series involves retreat materials, off-site meetings, and annual meetings, which are similar to that of the weekly meetings. Additionally, there is more emphasis on presentation and handout material. The retreats and off-site meetings often focused on a single business-oriented topic, such as Process Based Management, Total Quality Management, or JPL-Caltech Collaboration. The span dates of the series are from March 1986 to March 2001. The 1991 Retreat, held April 4-7, 1991, was the first to introduce the business strategy of "Total Quality Management" (TQM). JPL's objective in engaging TQM was a continuous improvement of the quality of all products and services while containing and reducing cost.

Rudolph Marcus begins the interview with a discussion of his family background and early education. Though he spent some of his early years in Detroit, Michigan, he primarily grew up in a Jewish neighborhood in Montreal, Canada. Marcus was encouraged to continue his education by his parents and his uncles. He enrolled in the twelfth grade, the equivalent of the first year of college, to save money for the university. Marcus then attended McGill University, majoring in chemistry. He graduated with a B.Sc. in 1943. Due to the war, he was able to take his fourth year in the course of a summer. Marcus went directly to graduate school, also at McGill, and studied physical chemistry with Carl Winkler. His research, RDX, was determined by war needs, and he received his Ph.D. in 1946. He spent an additional two and a half years on a National Research Council of Canada post-doc with Edward W. R. Steacie. In 1949, Marcus moved to the University of North Carolina, accepting a position with Oscar Rice, who had received an Office of Naval Research contract. It was there that Marcus began to focus on theory, particularly unimolecular and transition state theory. The result of this work was the development of the RRKM theory. In 1951, Marcus moved again, this time to Brooklyn Polytechnic University, where he became an assistant professor in the chemistry department. Marcus discusses his colleagues, including Herman Mark, Herbert Morawetz, and Charles Overberger, as well as the atmosphere of the institution. He became interested in electrostatics and polyelectrolytes. He also began some polymer research, and pursued work on electron transfer. In 1964, Marcus left Brooklyn Polytechnic for the University of Illinois. During his time there, he spent a few semesters at Oxford University as a visiting professor. In 1978, Marcus accepted a position at Caltech, where he began collaborating with Ahmed Zewail. His desire to pursue his research led him to decline administrative work. At Caltech, Marcus continued his electron transfer research. He concludes the interview with a discussion of his family, the challenges of research, and thoughts on his electron transfer work.

Title:
Richard Theobald Brice papers, 1926-1969.
The collection consists of papers of Richard Theobald Brice from 1926-1969. The majority of the papers contain correspondence between Brice and his mother Helen E. Brice in Atlanta (later Cummings), Georgia. Of particular interest are letters that he wrote while attending Cal Tech (Pasadina, Calf.) in the 1930's which describe student life and extensive correspondence and some v-mail while he was serving in the U.S. Army with Island Command in the Pacific Ocean during World War II. Though heavily censored in content, the letters do reflect the life of a soldier on a Pacific island. After the war, he writes from New York City describing his social life and his work with the Otis Elevator Company.

These drawings represent only a small portion of Porter's output, but they range over a variety of subjects from his California period, beginning in 1928. The works have been divided into series and subseries; for example, building designs for Caltech are further subdivided for individual structures. Highlights of the collection include original design proposals for the 200-inch telescope mount, in both schematic and three-dimensional/cutaway form, plus a series of drawing of Hale's spectrohelioscope. Some of Porter's military drawings are also represented, as well as miscellaneous drawings of Caltech engineering projects such as the Hydrodynamics Laboratory. Many of the drawings have been reproduced and scanned into the Caltech Archives' picture database, PhotoNet, which is searchable from the Archives' website.

The Fowler papers form a rich and important collection for the history of physics and astrophysics, as well as for the politics and sociology of science in the twentieth century. Included are working papers, correspondence, reprints, and biographical material. Of significance are materials relating to his mentor Charles C. Lauritsen from the 1920s and 1930s at Caltech, documents related to Caltech's World War II rocket project and his involvement in the war effort. Documentation also exists for Fowler's involvement in postwar defense work, particularly the study of strategic nuclear weapons know as Project Vista, and the creation of the Office of Naval Research. Much of the correspondence is both incoming and outgoing and can be found in relevant sections throughout the collection in addition to the correspondence section. California Institute of Technology materials document his work there including teaching, Kellogg Radiation Laboratory, and the Physics, Mathematics and Astronomy (PMA) Division materials. Fowler and Caltech's work in World War II and its immediate aftermath are documented including the rocket project sponsored by the Office of Scientific Research and Development (OSRD) technical reports, correspondence, and administrative materials. Documented is his work with Professional Organizations and Government Agencies including American Physical Society, National Academy of Sciences, and the National Science Foundation's Nuclear Science Advisory Committee. Manuscripts include drafts, unpublished manuscripts, and manuscripts by others. The reprints include many but not all Fowler's publications. The technical files are divided into broad subjects including Nuclear Physics, Nuclear Astrophysics, the solar neutrino problem, stars and supernovae, cosmochronology. Biographical Materials include the Nobel Prize, oral histories and interviews. Photographic material includes photos, slides, films. Also included are certificates, honorary degrees, and medals.

Lyman, Peter T., 1930-. Peter T. Lyman Collection, 1987-1992.
Title:
Peter T. Lyman Collection, 1987-1992.
The collection is a chronological file of correspondence sent to and from Peter T. Lyman in his duties as JPL Deputy Director. The files include letters, interoffice memoranda, proposals, role statements, and signature sheets to proposals and contracts. Very often only the cover sheet of a proposal, with Lyman's signature, will be found in the files, rather than the proposal as a whole. Each month includes an index at the beginning of the month. Lyman's files reflect routine procedural correspondence as Deputy Director. On a regular basis Lyman as Deputy Director sent memoranda to Elma D. Green, NASA Personnel Exchanges Officer, International Affairs Office, regarding requests to hire foreign nationals at JPL. Beginning in August 1990, the letters to Green were signed by Edmond Momjian of the JPL International Affairs Office, and approved by Lyman. In 1991 these letters were signed by Helen N. Paley of the International Affairs Office, and approved by Lyman. In 1992 Elma Green was succeeded by C. William Hayden as NASA Personnel Exchanges Officer. Lyman also communicated on a regular basis with Lennard A. Fisk, NASA Associate Administrator for Space Science and Applications, and Robert O. Aller, NASA Associate Administrator for Space Operations. Lyman routinely received memoranda from Robert E. Sutherland, Manager of Personnel Resources Division (Section 610) at JPL regarding deviations in employment opportunity advertising, when an position would be filled in-house rather than hiring someone outside the Laboratory. Lyman would periodically submit applications of selected JPL personnel to the NASA Management Education Program. The applications included a brief listing of previous managerial experience that each candidate had. Lyman sent all JPL personnel who were detailed to NASA Headquarters a memorandum explaining the terms of reference and memorandum of understanding for the assignment. The memorandum explained personal conduct, travel and expense reimbursements, personnel information, and tax considerations. A letter dated September 6, 1988, from Lyman to Robert O. Aller, NASA Associate Administrator for Space Operations regarding NASA support to the Phobos Project. The letter addressed concerns that the level of commitment in the project had escalated beyond that originally intended. The letter includes a project overview, NASA participation, and value added to the Phobos project. The Phobos Project was two spacecraft launched by the USSR in July 1988 to make detailed studies of Mars and its larger satellite Phobos. The each satellite carried a vehicle designed to land on Phobos and to operate on its surface for a year. The landings were scheduled to occur in April and May 1989. NASA participation included the U.S. Dynamics Experiment on the Lander, headed by Dr. Robert Preston of JPL. The experiment would have measured the orbit of Phobos, the details of Mars' gravity field, and the mass of a number of large asteroids. The Deep Space Network tracked the Phobos landers as well. Phobos-1 was lost due to an erroneous command on the outbound leg to Mars. Phobos-2 was crippled by electronics failures, although it managed to achieve an orbit around Mars in January 1989. There was a loss of signal from the probe as it neared Phobos in March 1989.

Title:
Papers [microform], 1847-1953.
Correspondence (1888-1953) consists primarily of the official papers generated by Millikan as chairman of the Executive Council of the California Institute of Technology (Reels 17-40) which serve as a prime source for the history of the Institute. Other correspondence covers his involvement in many organizations and committees (Reels 6-16) such as the National Academy of Science (1913-1952), National Research Council (1916-1926), Science Advisory Board (1933-1941), etc. as well as considerable material on the role of the Carnegie, Rockefeller, and Guggenheim foundations in the expansion of higher education in the United States in the post-World War I decades. His personal and family correspondence (Reels 41-65, 1913-1953) contains a voluminous number of letters exchanged between Millikan and his wife Greta during the frequent periods they were apart as well as Greta's correspondence with other family members and friends, providing a rich social commentary not only on the Millikan family but on contemporary events and Greta's role as a wife of a famous public figure. A small portion (Reel 5) documents the significant role Millikan played in the mobilization of science for national defense during World War I. Family documents and memorabilia (Reels 74-80) include material on their sons' early childhood, legal papers, social calendars, biographical sketches, etc. Speeches and articles (Reels 66-71, 1915-1949) cover a broad spectrum of political, social, and scientific topics. Scientific notes (Reels 1-4) include lecture notes (1899-1920) which offer insight into the state of physics and physics education. Research notebooks (1897-1920) contain recorded data from his scientific experiments on electron charge measurement, bubble patent machine, photo-electric phenomena, and cosmic rays. Correspondents include: Henry H. Arnold, Albert Barrows, Paul Brockett, Vannar Bush, Harry Chandler, Karl T. Compton, Gano Dunn, Arthur H. Fleming, Johns A. Fleming, George E. Hale, Herbert Hover, Frank B. Jewett, Henry M. Robinson and Theodore von K'arm'an.

Title:
Oral history interview with Carver A. Mead 2004 September 30, December 8 and 2005 August 15
Carver A. Mead begins with a review of his family history and his childhood near a power plant in Kernville, California. He discusses his early interest in electronics, which included getting his ham radio license and working for local radio stations during high school. Mead studied electrical engineering at the California Institute of Technology and was invited to teach during graduate school, where he took up solid state electronics. In 1959 Gordon Moore contacted Mead, beginning an informal technical exchange while Moore was at Fairchild Semiconductor and Intel Corporation. Mead conducted transistor research, and also pioneered automated design methodologies for VLSI devices. While consulting with Intel Corporation, Mead came to know its internal business culture and management style as well as the economics of the silicon manufacture. Mead discusses his long history of entrepreneurial activity, which continues to the present day.

Title:
AMsS, 1932 January 25 : Pasadena, California Institute of Technology.
Einstein's address opens with a welcome to Jacob Gould Schurman, former U.S. Ambassador to Germany, then a lecturer at Cal. Tech., whom Einstein praises in the highest terms. He then discusses the state of European-American civilization and comments on disparity in the quality of life in spite of great productivity. He says: "The pessimist asks 'Why should not our civilization collapse from inner decay?' ... Our material civilization has as its permanent justification the protection and development of our culture." He continues: "It is not in intellect that we lack strength for the overcoming of evil, rather we lack in the unselfish and responsible dedication to service of the common good." In German with English translation by Dr. R.C. Tolman.

Title:
JPL Executive Council Collection, 1960-1982.
The collection contains materials distributed to and generated by the JPL Executive Council, dated primarily between 1975 to 1980. The materials include items distributed and/or discussed at Executive Council meetings, memoranda, Executive Council meeting minutes and summaries, agendas, Executive Council Retreat and Mini-Retreat agendas, minutes and summaries, and correspondence, reports, memoranda, copies of journal and newspaper articles, and ephemera that were generally presented as attachments to the record of the meeting. Meeting minutes of three Executive Council committees are also represented in the collection. The committees were the Solar System Exploration Executive Committee (later the Space Science and Exploration Executive Committee), the UtilitarianProjects Executive Committee, and the Institutional Executive Committee. Half of the subject files were originally filed chronologically, while half were filed with the meeting minutes or summary of the meeting they pertained to. This arrangement has been retained, with a chronological subject file series as well as attachments to the meetings in the Executive Council meetings series.

Hibbs, Albert R. Papers of Albert R. Hibbs, 1884-2009.
Title:
Papers of Albert R. Hibbs, 1884-2009.
The Albert R. Hibbs Papers, 1884-2009 (80 boxes) document the personal life and career of Hibbs as a manager and scientist at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL), the relationships between JPL, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), and the California Institute of Technology (Caltech), and the development of the solar system exploration programs. Hibbs' consulting work for television and radio programs, Biosphere 2, and Morgantown Area Rapid Transit System (MARTS) are also documented. Although the collection arrived at The Huntington in disarray, original order of the materials was maintained when possible and the arrangement reflects Hibbs' general organization by correspondent, subject, or format of materials. The collection is divided into ten series: Audio Visual Materials, Consulting Files, Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL), Notebooks, Personal Files, Photographs and Negatives, Presentations and Speeches, Publications and Writings, Teaching Files, and Oversize. The bulk of collection materials date from 1931 to 1999 and consists of audio and video tapes, clippings, correspondence, memoranda, notes, photographs, publications, speeches, and writings. As the collection is arranged by both subject and format of the materials, researchers should be aware that materials are often dispersed through the series. For example, materials related to specific subjects are frequently represented in the JPL and Notebooks Series; similarly, Hibbs' friendship and collaboration with Roy L. Walford is documented in the Correspondence and Aging Research and Writings subseries of the Personal Series, in the Space Bioshpheres Ventures subseries of the Consulting series, as well as in the Audio Visual Materials Series. Correspondence is also dispersed throughout the series.

Baltimore, David, 1920-. Oral history interview with David Baltimore, 1994 February 7, 1995 April 13, 1995 April 29
Title:
Oral history interview with David Baltimore, 1994 February 7, 1995 April 13, 1995 April 29
David Baltimore begins the series of interviews describing his interest in biology as a high-school student and throughout his college years at Swarthmore. During college he spent a summer at Cold Spring Harbor where he met Cy Levinthal and Salva Luria, both of whom encouraged him to go to graduate school at MIT. As an undergraduate, Baltimore held an interest in viruses. Knowledge and study of animal virology were still very limited, and when he decided to devote his Ph.D. thesis to this topic, he moved to Rockefeller University to join Richard M. Franklin who was working with mengovirus. In his graduate work, he discovered that cultured animal cells infected with mengovirus synthesized an enzyme that catalyzed the synthesis of viral RNA. This was the first example of a virus coding for an RNA-dependent RNA polymerase. He then began working with poliovirus, work that continued for many years. In 1965 Renato Dulbecco asked Baltimore to join him at the Salk Institute for Biological Studies. There he initially focused on the replication of poliovirus RNA. With Mike Jacobson, a graduate student, he also began studying viral protein synthesis. Their work contributed to the recognition of the importance of proteolytic processing in the synthesis of eukaryotic proteins. Baltimore left the Salk Institute after two and a half years and returned to MIT in 1968 as an Associate Professor of Microbiology. He continued to focus his research on poliovirus, but also began work on vesicular stomatitis virus [VSV]. He and his wife, Alice Huang, who at the time was a research associate in his lab, discovered that VSV carried an RNA-dependent RNA polymerase within the virus particle. This work provided the insight that led to his discovery of reverse transcriptase -- the enzyme in retroviruses that transcribes DNA from RNA -- and won Baltimore the Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine in 1975 along with Howard Temin and Renato Dulbecco. Baltimore's work with retroviruses was the beginning of his interest in and work on cancer and tumor biology. In the mid-1970s, Baltimore expanded his research interests into the field of immunology, specifically into the areas of B cell development and antibody diversity. Baltimore concludes the interviews with a discussion of the discovery of reverse transcriptase, and thoughts on his research on poliovirus, retroviruses and immunology at MIT in the 1980s.

Title:
Astronomy: my way of life, as told to Andrew Hamilton, ca. 1960.
A reflection on the life and career of Ira Sprague Bowen, from the building of his first telescope as an adolescent to his retirement as director emeritus of the Mt. Wilson and Palomar Observatories in 1964. Bowen relates the influence on his life of Robert A. Millikan at the University of Chicago, and later at the California Institute of Technology; his life in Pasadena in the 1920s; his interest in spectroscopy, especially his studies of the spectra of nebulae; his part on the planning commission for the Hale Observatories and directorship of Mt. Wilson and Palomar, and the building of the 200-inch Hale telescope; and the "occupational hazards" of astronomy (cold and boredom), its utility, and its devotees.
