High‐Polymer Physics Prize

Paul J. Flory, professor of physical chemistry at Stanford University, was awarded the first High‐Polymer Physics Prize of the American Physical Society on March 27 during the Society's meeting in Baltimore. The $1000 prize was established last November by action of the APS Council and is to be conferred annually “for outstanding accomplishment and excellence of contributions to research in high‐polymer physics”. It is sponsored by the Ford Motor Company.
