quehame,Neilson Readers!

With the mailing Of this issue, we are glad to welcome the em-ployees of the Neilson Chemical Company as readers of theAMCHEM NEWS. This issue should be of singular interest tothem since it is their initial copy and also because it contains acapsule history of the Neilson Company, its founder, Howard R.Neilson, and his two sons, Howard F. and Raymond. ( See page 4. )

Now that we have welcomed them as readers, we would deemit a privilege to print any items that our newly acquired "Detroitcousins" would consider to be of interest to our readers ingeneral. These stories or news bits would not necessarily haveto be of a strictly business nature. A brief perusal of this issueshould indicate the type of material we desire.

RarePortrait

Links Past HistoryWith PTesent Day Episode

An event of particular interest tookplace on March 15 last, when Chair-man of the Board Leon Cherksey andMrs. Cherksey were the guests of ChiefJustice Earl Warren at a luncheonserved in their honor in the private din-ing room of the U. S. Supreme Court.Present also at the luncheon wereAssociate Justice of the Supreme CourtWilliam J. Brennan, Jr., and Mrs.Brennan, Chief Clerk of the Su-preme Court James R. Browning,and Amchem patent attorneyA. D. Caesar and Mrs. Caesar.

The aHair was occasioned bythe presentation of an only knownportrait of William Paterson,seventh Associate Justice of theSupreme Court, by Mr. and Mrs.Cherksey. Justice Paterson, aframer and signer of the Consti-tution, was appointed to theCourt at the age of 48 by GeorgeWashington in 1793, the year theportrait was painted. He serveduntil his death in 1806.

The Paterson portrait was pro-cured by Mr. Cherksey after hehad learned through Mr. Caesarthat it was available from theCarlen Galleries in Philadelphia.

This rare art treasure, incidentally, to-gether with a portrait and bust of thefirst Chief Justice of the United States,John Jay, are the only works of art thatshow Justices in robes of more thanone color. Since the year 1800, allrobes worn by members of the SupremeCourt have been solid black.

The Paterson portrait was executedby James Sharples, who, according to

Chief Justice Warren, was one of theoutstanding portrait painters of theColonial era. It is considered one ofthe finest examples of the artist's work.

Prior to its acceptance by Chief Jus-tice Warren, the portrait was definitelyauthenticated by the selection commit-tee and the critics of the famous Cor-coran Galleries in Washington, D.C.

The identification paper attached tothe back of the portrait is repro-duced on this page. As you .wfllnote, it contains a fragmentarybiography of Justice Paterson, to-gether with a brief history ofthe portrait.

Among the many interestingfacets of this episode is the factthat Earl Warren is only the.14thChief Justice since the establish-ment of the Court in 1789, andthat Mr. Browning is only theCourt's 13th Chief Clerk. It wasMr. Browning who held theKennedy family Bible when ChiefJustice Warren administered theoath of Office to President Ken-nedy at his inauguration.

All of us at Amchem heartilycongratulate Mr. and Mrs. Cherk-sey on their contribution to thearchives of the United States.

BIG

SUCCESS+ir \ +, i .ir tr

It was the consensus of opinion of the approximately 120people who attended Amchem's International Convention inParis,March 20 to 25, that it was an outstanding success.These delegates came from 41 different companies, in 23different countries throughout the world. Five French news-papers and one industrial publication devoted over 1700 linesof space to the coverage of the affair.

On his arrival back in the United States, Vice-PresidentI. 0. I. Shellenberger complimented CFPI (CompagnieFrancaise de Produits Industriels) and its president AdrienHess on the thoroughness with which this firm completedarrangements and provided an interesting and entertainingprogram, especially for the delegates wives.

deAMCHEMWzacThere were 59 items on the agenda, including field trips

and visits to CFPI facilities. Divisionally, these items were:Agricultural Chemicals 26, Metalworking Chemicals 16,I}en].amin Foster Company 17. In additiori to the remarks ofPresident Romig, Vice-President Shellenberger and Interna-tional Division Manager Warren Weston, these other Amchempersonnel-Lon Dorsay, Joe Dudek, Dick Fosse, Prof. Machu,Stig Sasse and Ells Stockbower-all presented papers onvarious aspects of our Intemational operation-both techni-cal and business.

From the open discussions and exchanges of ideas, a pool ofmutual profits can easily emerge in the not too distant future.

President Romig in his message of welcome to the delegatescommented on how such assemblages as the Conventioncould be turned into instruments of peace. "I like to feel",said he, "that by being here, all of us are in a small way help-ing to bring about peace in the world."

RESIDUE

SLEUTHSSpecicdized InstTunentationEnabl,es Hirsh Segalg MatSutherlcnd, cnd, Sue Gross

to TTace Residues inGop Samples

In a talk prepared for last year's Amchem Weed ControlField Day, Dr. Vlrgil H. Freed, Agricultural Chemistryand Farm Crops De|;artment, Oregon State College,Corvallis, stated: "Acquisition of residue informa.tionshould be a prime ob].ective of well-designed experimentsspecifically set up to obtain this information . . . informa-tion gathered rather incidentally to other studies oftenwill leave as many questions unanswered as it answers."

In other words, what the good Doc was.trying to tellus is that it is just as important to find out how much, ifany, of the chemical weed killer or pest killer will appearin a vegetable or fruit after it is harvested as it is to findout if the chemical will kill the weeds or insects on whichit was applied. Also, what bad effects, if any, this chemi-cal residue could have on the person who eats the vege-table or fruit.

Recognizing the importance of the safety factor in

`R%i%±Ig#weF3Ro?g#%oEmcatpooo%:eEtpsa%p;Etc:%£l,e:r##aommMooffe:cuEu%.

residues in weed killers is old stuff at Amchem . . . it hasgone along all the way with the entire ACD researchand development program.

Governed by Conscience and Law

Two things govern this Amchem policy, the first beingAmchem's conscientious concern for the health of theconsumer-both human and animal. The second beingstrict compliance with the regulations established by theU.S. Department of Agriculture to assure the safetyof edibles.

Currently a. rather extensive program along thesesafety lines is being carried out by Hirsh Segal and MelSutherland, assisted by Sue Gross, over in the AnalyticalResearch Laboratory in Building No. 1.

From time to time additional assistance is given byDr. Lynn Cummings, Harvey Raman and Frank Manson,while Drs. Richard Reeves and Stanley MCLane act asconsultants, and, of course, the entire program is underthe supervision of Technical Director AI Douty. For-merly the kind of trace analysis being done by this groupof residue sleuths was farmed out to independent re-search centers. Now with the help of the highly ad-vanced, specialized instrumentation, which is illustratedon this and the next page, much of this investigativework is being done here at Amchem. This on-the-spotapproach originated with Bill Gannon, Patent Depart-ment Chief, who early saw the advantages of uninter-

(d#ofm?p#%#og%;na#%%#grEbrf#]S%#b°a£#3#t#uiec#

rupted residue studies. Hirsh Segal shares this opinion.For, according to Hirsh, "it:s difficult to break into themiddle of an experiment and then try to co-ordinate allthe widely separated agencies. Fouow-through from in-ception to final report is essential for success."

How Iusfulments Work

A typical analysis using four of these instruments in se-quence would proceed as follows: The SOXHLET EX-TRACTOR (Fig. F.) would remove the weedkillerAmiben from soybeans. The extracted Amiben wouldthen be concentrated by liquid chemical means. In theGAS CHROMATOGRAPH ( Fig. A. ) this Amiben wouldbe separated from any chemicals which would inter-fere with the analysis. The final determination of howmuch Amiben was actually present in the soybeanswould be made in the SPECTROPHOTOMETER ( Fig.C.), or in the RADIOISOTOPE COUNTER (Fig. E.)when appropriate.

So delicately sensitive are these instruments that theyare capable of detecting the presence of outside agentsin a fruit or vegetable to the degree of one-tenth Part permillion-or one hundred thousandth of one per cent-andall for safety's sake. So, we hope we won't be accused ofplagiarism if we paraphrase and ela,borate a bit on a well-known slogan, to wit: "You can be sure if it's TREATEDWITH WEEDONE IT'S SAFE," but don't forget to fol-low the directions.

deAMCHEMwt2acScientist OFfspring oF Amchem PersonnelWayne Tafuro, 15-year-old son of TonyTafuro, ACD Research, stands beside hisentry in the Montgomery County ScienceFair held at Ursinus College, March 26.Wayne's exhibit, one of 700 submittedby high school students from all overMontgomery County, qualified for the con-test by reason of having taken top honorsat Pennbrook Junior High School, Lans-dale, where he is a ninth grade student.

The entry was an experiment in testingthe effectiveness of Amiben as a herbicidein soybeans and corn. Wayne conductedhis experiment-keeping a record of rates,dates, etc.-just as though he were work-ing on a regular professional assignment.He is a member of his school's scienceclub, plays the drums in the band, is a

member of the choral group and is anexplorer scout.

An exhibit somewhat similar to Wayne'swas entered by Sue Faigen, daughter ofHarry Faigen, MCD Chemist. Sue isseventeen and a junior at CheltenhamHigh School. Her projec`t was testing theselectivity as well as the effectiveness ofvarious Amchem herbicides.

More than 700 exhibits were submittedby junior and senior high school studentsfrom all over Montgomery County for theScience Fair at Ursinus. Many of theseexhibits were quite advanced, as for ex-ample the winner in the boys' junior highalassific`ation submitting as his subject,"Centrifugal Force and Mice."

Collmer ls Supervisor of MaintenanceRay Collmer has a new title-Supervisorof Maintenance. This is a newly Createdposition where he will assist Harry Bailey.

Ray rang down the curtain on his draft-ing board chores on April I. On that dayhe put his scale rule and drawing instru-ments in moth balls, hung up his trianglesitnd T-square and hied himself and his``cnse of humor over from the EngineeringDci):`rtment to Maintenance in Build-inLr 18.

Riiy h{is the kind of background thatfits hiin ideally for his new job. Aftergriitl`i:iting froin Olney High School in1{)37 hc went to work the following year!lt the ]'l`ih`(lclphia Navy Yard. He stayedat "the Y!`r(1" for nine years, earning thetitle of "lcii(ling man"-not as a performerin the "League Island Follies", but as afull-fledged supervisor of construction.

Ray's next assignment took him to New

York City where he was an engineer withthe Eastern Inspection Bureau. This wasfollowed in 1951 by a stint as publicutilities engineer with the Association ofFire Underwriters, Philadelphia, wherehe remained until he joined Amchem inMarch 1953.

Ray supplemented his high school edu-cation by evening courses at Temple Uni-versity and the University of Pennsylvaniafor several years until he moved to Tini-cum Township in Upper Bucks Countynear the Delaware River, in 1956.

Ray and his wife Phyllis are the parentsof four children: Alan 16, Jane 13, Jill 8,and Mark 5.

The Collmers are quite active in schooland civic affairs, Phyllis being editor ofthe Township Bulletin and Senior Girlscout Leader, while Ray is treasurer ofthe Civic Association and a member ofthe local Lions Club.

Amchem Sponsors Sea Scour Jam M. DyroffFor the third successive year Amchem hasacted as a host on Eagle Scout Recogni-tion Day. This year's guest on April 26was Sea Scout Jam M. Dyroff, a seventeen-year-old freshman at Villanova University.Jam, who lives at 1025 W. Marshall St.,Norristown, is a member of Ship 54 spon-sored by Penguin Boat Club in hishome town.

His escort for the day's ac`tivities wasHarvey Raman, ACD chemist, who con-ducted him on a tour of the Amchemplant, offices and Farm. Raman then ac-companied Jam to the banquet at theUnion League in Philadelphia.

Jam, whose present duty is Mczfe, is thefirst Sea Scout to be our guest, the previ-ous guests having been all Boy Scouts. He

has attained the following ranks in ScoutExploring: Assistant Crew Leader, CrewLeader, Bos'n's Mate, Yeoman. He alsohas achieved the Ad Altare Dei Award athis church, St. Francis of Assisi, Norris-town. Other recognitions include Quarter-master, Sea Explorer, Valley Forge Trail.

Jam lists his vocational interests as bio-chemistry and his hobbies as numismatics(coin collecting), and HO railroading.

Eagle Recognition Day is held annuallyby the Advancement Committee of theValley Forge Council, Boy Scouts ofAmerica, to help outstanding young mendetermine their future vocations. TheHonorable William R. Toal is Chairmanof the Committee.
