to* Chattanooga Times from 1878 to 1986 and publisher of The New York Times from 1896 to 1935. She is the daughter of Arthur Hays Sulzber-ger, chairman of the board of both The New York Times Company and The Times Printing Company in Chattanooga, says the New York Times. Her brother, Arthur Ochs Sulzberger, is publisher of The New York Times.
In a statement for the editorial page of The Chattanooga Times, Mrs. Golden said:
"It is traditional for a new pub-
lisher of a newspaper to make a statement on the day this responsibility is assumed. I do so now to emphasize that more than just these words obey tradition. The Chattanooga Times continues under the direction of the same family that has guided its path since 1878.
"I was born into the Sulzberger-Ochs family, and am deeply committed to the quality of journalism that these two names have come to exemplify in the publishing world. It will be my earnest endeavor that The Chattanooga Times shall serve this area in every way that a responsible newspaper can, mindful always that it shall 'give the news impartially, without fear or favor, regardless of any party, sect, or interests involved.' "
Following the board meeting, Mrs. Golden designated William C. McKenzie, who has been business manager since March, 1958, to be the newspaper's general manager, says the New York Times. John N. Popham continues as managing editor in charge of news operations. Martin S. Ochs, grand-nephew of Adolph S. Ochs, continues as editor of the editorial page.

In DecembeuB941, when the Japanese occuprecTCuam, Dr. Gottlieb was among the naval personne.1 taken prisoner. About a year and a half before the end of the war, his captors made him chief medical officer at Shinagawa, a war prisoners' hospital in the Tokyo arda. Four days before Japan's former surrender, he was freed by a naval evacuation mission.
Aboard a hospital ship in Tokyo Bay on September 2, 1945, the day of the formal surrender. Dr. Gott- . lieb and another rescued physician { from New York, Capt. Harold W. \ Keschner, of the Army Reserve, told of the horrors they had seen at Shinagawa.
They spoke of their captors' use of prisoners in experiments that caused unspeakable pain and often death. When the two physicians/ protested reductions in rations for^ ill prisoners, they themselves were^ put on half rations, they reported.
Dr. Gottlieb said that the num* ber of deaths at Shinagawa w*j "enormous". Physical abuse, a* said, was common, reports the New York Times, and he himself w beaten six weeks before his re�c {or an^fejttg-MJtarivial that>.

James N. Rosenberg, of Scars-dale, N. Y., a man of several careers, is concentrating at the age of ninety years on two � painting pictures and working for world peace. Besides bringing art into the homes of collectors. Mr. Rosenberg hopes to leaa Westchester into building an arts center. And, as a lawyer, he believes that peace through law channels is logical, says the New York Times, and the promotion of the World Court into a more effective arm of the United Nations with compulsion behind rulings is essential.
The White House hung one of Mr. Rosenberg's pictures recently and he went to Albany for his first important political job � the casting of a vote as a member of the Electoral College. He voted for President Johnson.
In recognition of Mr. Rosenberg's seventy-five years of art work and his birthday in November, Westchester Art Society presented a retrospective exhibition of his oils, lithographs, drawings, and water-colors. It included a drawing he made at the age of fourteen, and eighty pictures typical of his changing styles over the years.
The show opened In the Society's galleries at 36 West Post Road, in White Plains, N. Y., and continued for ten days. All proceeds were donated to the Society. "I hope the money will help the Society to obtain a permanent |bape, Mr. Rosenberg said. "I also it will help to 'advance the for a Westchester cultural ;r for ail the visual and per-
and
"Hi i >TiY IMiiH' Mi secen a Lincoln Center of its own.**
Mr. Rosenberg is represented in the Metropolitan Museum of Art and thirty galleries throughout the U.S. An exhibition of his paintings in a Brandeis University benefit produced $250,000, but much of the money paid for pictures was a philanthropic donation, says the New York Times. "I never received more than $1,000 myself for a picture," Mr. Rosenberg said. "And I have given away thousands until I have denuded my home." He recalled ruefully that pictures by Matisse, Dufy, Modigliani and others he had bought in the Nine-teen-Twenties for $5,000 were worth $2 million today.
He said that it was to help an uncle with an art gallery in Paris at that time that the pictures were sold at low prices. A Matisse that went for $1,000 was sold recently in New York for $18,000.
Mr. Rosenberg said the master he admired most was Cezanne. His pictures reflect this admiration. Some also show influences of Van Gogh, Prendergast, and the German expressionists. Most of his work is representational but some is semi-abstract.
Mr. Rosenberg does most of his work indoors. He produces simple skat^bea with crayons and pencils ;rfnen ne travels, adding many written notations about colors and forms. HA later works from them.
The prized Albert Lasker Medical Research Awards have gone this year to a psychiatrist who has championed the wider use of drugs against mental illness, and two California researchers who are trying to find out how viruses may cause cancer, says the New York Herald Tribune. Dr. Nathan S. Kline, psychiatrist and director of research at Rockland State Hospital, Orangeburg, N. Y., was named the winner of the $10,000 annual award for clinical research.
Dr. Renato Dulbecco, of the Salk Institute of Biological Studies, San Diego; and Dr. Harry Rubin, of the University of California, at Berkeley, are to share the $10,000 prize for basic medical research.
Dr. Kline was aft early participant in the development of anti-depression 4jrtai� He won another Laaker Aw*rdt given by the American Public. HeWth Association in 1957, for Ms work on the Indian snakQooot derivative, the tranquil-iier called wtirotfla.

the U.S. National Institute* of Health, played a little-known role in making possible the development of the Sabhi oral vaccine to combat polio. He was the scientist who discovered how to grow billions of viruses � in this case weakened polio strains � from one single virus, says the New York Herald Tribune, thus insuring that no lethal forms of the virus would get into the vaccine and maim people it was supposed to protect.
Born and educated in Italy, Dr. Dulbecco came to the United States
in 1947 and has been conducting basic research on viruses ever since. The Lasker jury chose him because of his demonstration that a virus need not multiply � as it does in infections � to change the nature of tissue cells from normal to cancerous.
Before Dr. Dulbecco discovered this fat*! talent of somnolent viruses, cancer researchers generally discounted these pathogens as a cause of the disease. Nobody could find any viruses in the blood or tissues of patients with cancer. Now some researchers have found particles in the blood of leukemia victims which give every indication of being viruses. But the case against these most rudimentary forms of life still is not proved.
While Dr. Dulbecco was working with a mouse tumor virus � called polyoma � Dr. Rubin was studying another virus that causes a �muscle cancer in chickens. Arriving at conclusions similar to Dr. Dulbecco's, says the New York Herald Tribune, Dr. Rabin alqo showed that the chicken virus (Rous sarcoma) needs a second or helper virus to produce cancer.
Dr. Dulbecco, aged fffty years, the M.D. degree from the University of Turin and was associated with Indiana University before joining the California Institute of Technology in 1949. He became a fellow at the Salk Institute , in 19*3.
Dr. Rubin, 38, trained as a veterinarian at Cornell University. He worked for the U. S Depart-of Affrtadtare and the U.S. Health Seryfce M problems of anfmal virus dfteawe, and fo professor of virology at the University of California.
This year's Lasker award winners were chosen by a jury of fifteen leading American scientists under the chairmanship of Dr. Sydney Farber, a noted cancer researcher at the Children's Hospital Center in Boston, says the New York Herald Tribune. Dr. Kline, Dr. Dulbecco, and Dr. Rubin received their gold statuettes and checks at the award luncheon in New York.
"I see yx> much when I Cry to paint from the subject itself," he said.
In the woodlands behind his home in Scarsdale at 457 Mama-roneck Road, Mr. Rosenberg has converted an old barn into a studio, says the New York Times. Near it he has a trout pond � a winter substitute for the streams on his 1,000-acre preserve in the Adiron-dacks.
