File includes: a broadly written, sixteen-page typed response to questionnaire with special attention to Taschek's work during World War II at Los Alamos in the electrostatic accelerator group, of which he became group leader after the war. Two pages are devoted to the public's attitude toward science. Recipients were asked to discuss their entry into a scientific career in general and nuclear physics in particular, their work during the Second World War, their scientific achievements, the funding of their projects, the roles of related sciences--especially high energy physics--in their research, their work as educators, their perceptions of the public's attitude towards science, and their involvement in physics-related organizations.
