Raborn, Director Central Intelligence Agency Washington, D. C. Dear Admiral Raborn: I am sorry I was unable to reach you yesterday on the phone to explain the mission of the Defense Science Seminar and to extend more directly this invitation to address the Seminar on its opening day, Monday, 2 August. As described in last year's bro- chure enclosed),our aim is to locate new, young and specially scientists who have enough interest in defense antmbring ngivhem emity to speed in an intensive one-month exposure to the status, problems bebandgpotentialities thin U.S. defense. and It has seemed very important at the outset to provide an overview from a loft spective on what I have called "U.S. Aims and the Threat". Y per- Semi nar Dr. As godfather of the Harold Brown will lead off with a discussio of the role of R&D in defense. I ha rug t to follow T m wi h-t~i~ kind of global military-technical- political overview which you could do so ably. I realize that this invitation comes on short notice and at what is probably a hectic time for you. However, the Seminar is one of the more important long-range contribu- tions to the future strength of our country, and represents a unique opportunity to inspire and proselytize this hand-picked group. A further consideration is that these bright young men are available as future consultants not only to the Department of Defense but also to your agency. I hope therefore you will weigh these advantages in with the dislocation in your schedule which your acceptance would undoubtedly involve. I might mention that if Dr. Brown follows last year's procedure, he will fly out on an Air Force jet; I have no idea of its feasibility, but if you could come together, perhaps even your travel time could be put to good use. In the hope that you may be able to accept, I am enclosing several circulars con- taining information for Seminar visitors and an approximate list of attendees as well as the schedule as it now stands. You will see from last year's roster of speakers that we have very high-level support. I look forward to your reaction, not only to this invitation but also to the concept of the Seminar and whether you feel its alumni might be useful to you in some way. I would appreciate it if you would let me know if there is anything we can do to make your acceptance easier or more likely. We would deem it a very real honor if you could come. S.TATINTL lncerP1 W.

All participants eligible for travel expenses to be paid by the Seminar must provide receipts for all expenditures. Occasional and brief individual travel during the Seminar to meet previous commitments and permit maximum attendance at the Seminar will be supported on the same basis (to the extent of additional expenses attributable to Seminar attendance), but must have advance approval. All attendees are expected to make their own travel arrangements to and from UCLA. Travel for field trips will be arranged by the Seminar. Government and Military personnel should bring along appropriate orders authorizing continuous travel for the month of August; their salary, travel and expenses must of course be borne by their home agencies. PER DIEM - The standard University per diem rate of $15/day will be paid non- Government participants living away from home. On regular meeting days when catered lunches are provided, this figure will be reduced to $12.50. For nonGovernment atten- dees residing in the LA area, actual expenses will be reimbursed in lieu of a per diem (except on field trips); again receipts should be preserved. HOUSING - For those who have not previously been sent copies, there are en- closed a current listing of local hotels and motels, and maps of the UCLA campus and Los Angeles area. To minimize dispersion (for aid in car pools, joint extracurricu- lar activities, etc.) we have selected two nearby motels as Seminar residence headquarters: BEL AIR SANDS - 11461 Sunset Blvd., just west of the San Diego Freeway Single, $11/day; Double, $14/day, with kitchenette, add $3; No monthly rate. Pool, Dining Room, Cocktail Lounge, Free TV, 24-hour Switchboard TROPIC PALMS - 10580 Wilshire Blvd., near Westwood Blvd. Single, $100/mo; Double, $150/mo (double or twin beds); Suite, $275/mo (2 rooms, double or twin beds, sleeps four) Pool, Coffee Shop, Free TV Attendees bringing families may prefer to live near the beach. In any event, please specify on the attached questionnaire what, if any, housing arrangements you want us to make for you. DIRECTIONS TO CAMPUS - UCLA is located in West Los Angeles ("Westwood Village"), with main campus entrance on Westwood Boulevard at LeConte Avenue, four blocks north of Wilshire Boulevard. Limousine service is available to the Village from the Los Angeles International Airport. If you are driving from the airport, take Century Blvd. due east to the San Diego Freeway northbound entrance; drive north on the freeway (-10 miles) to the Wilshire Blvd. off-ramp, taking the "east" fork, and proceed east on Wilshire to the third traffic light (Westwood Blvd.) from the freeway exit; a left (north) turn onto Westwood Blvd. then leads onto the UCLA campus. Other campus en- trances are from Gayley Ave. at Buenos Ayres Drive, and from Hilgard Ave. at Manning (no left turn:) or Westholme. Note that the campus entrance through Tiverton Drive is now closed due to building construction.

Entrance to the Chemistry Building may be made from the west through the Court of the Sciences (at the third-floor level), from Buenos Ayres Drive to the east (at the first-floor level), or from the south via Lot lOB. SECURITY CHECK-IN - Security check-in, involving confirmation of clearances, issuing Seminar ID cards, badges, notebooks, etc., will begin in Chem 3087 at 0800 on Monday, 2 August. Since Seminar security indoctrination is scheduled for 0945 hours, it will be appreciated if you are on deck early. On subsequent days, sem- inar sessions will start at 0900, with check-in at 0845. IDENTIFICATION - You should bring along personal credentials, preferably a picture ID card from your base installation. Lacking that, driver's license, credit cards, etc. will speed security formalities. You should also bring along this letter which constitutes your personal invitation to the Seminar. CLASSIFIED MATERIAL - The Seminar Document Control Center cannot assume ac- countability for classified material that attendees bring with them. However, a simple system is being set up for handling classified notes and other documents generated at the Seminar. Space for unclassified storage of brief cases will be provided; please do not plan to carry brief cases into and out of the meeting room. PARKING - Parking will be provided as necessary in Lot 2. However, because this lot requires a Parcoa keycard, parking for the first day only will be in Lot MH (Myra Hershey Hall) on Manning near Buenos Ayres Drive, for which a one-day sticker is attached--to be returned if not used. Please indicate your parking needs on the attached questionnaire. CLOTHING - The weather in Los Angeles during August may range from bright sunshine, with temperatures in the 90's, to rather cool days of overcast, (In any event, the Seminar meeting room is air-conditioned!) Nights are almost always cool. Thus, light clothing for day wear, augmented by a jacket during the evening is recom- mended. For use on field trips it would be advisable to bring along a windbreaker and a raincoat. By and large there will be no need for special field clothing; it is possible, but not necessary, to get dirty. RSVP - Please fill in and post promptly the enclosed Questionnaire. We have scheduled a slate of excellent speakers and interesting field trips and, with your help, look forward to a stimulating month. STATINTL W. G.

The generation of twenty-five years ago served its apprenticeship in the application of tech- nology to national security during the Second World War. A substantial fraction of them have continued their interest and given valuable service in acting as a technical advisory community to the Federal Government both in defense and non-defense matters. I hope that the Defense Science Seminars will interest some of the abler young academic scientists in current and future problems of defense and re- lated technologies. We in the Defense Department intend to utilize the talents of its alumni on various scientific advisory panels. Perhaps some of them may even ultimately be persuaded to spend some fraction of their careers in Government service.

Although many universities and their faculties were deeply involved in the great military projects of World War II, the application of science to national defense did not long remain a popular academic pursuit. Those uni- versity scientists and engineers who did maintain their interest and proficiency in defense problems have played a vital role, largely in scientific advisory and administrative capacities, in shaping our defenses and- with increasing frequency-in helping to formulate policy in other areas of government. Curiously, despite the recognized need for such advisors, these World War II project alumni have been allowed to become two decades older-and much busier-without the development of any mechanism for training their replacements, much less meeting the increased demands for such talent. It is the aim of the Defense Science Seminar to help develop a new generation of responsible people, knowledgeable in the scientific-technical problems of defense and government, as a base from which might be drawn new technical committee members, counselors and even occasionally government administrators. Be- sides the traditional disdain of academicians for practical (especially military) applications, a major barrier in getting gifted but inexperienced university scientists involved in defense problems is one of classification: few defense contractors or government agencies are anxious to hire as a consultant anyone who doesn't already know the score, and the newcomer finds it difficult to establish a need-to-know without such backing. A great impetus. was provided by Dr. Brown's willingness to authorize a need-to-know for Seminar par- ticipants on the basis of their implied promise of continued interest. This has made it possible to expose the willing newcomer to a general background of the existing defense structure and the associated problems at least sufficient to qualify him for apprentice membership on some of the many government advisory commit- tees. If these initiates then live up to their promise, they will in time grow into expert and productive senior advisors. This is the rationale behind the Defense Science Seminar. Approved For Release 2000/08/25: CIA-RDP69B00596R000100190045-7 Approved For Releas00/08/25: CIA-RDP69B0059600100190045-7 ORGANIZATION From a standing start in May 1964, the difficulties of finding suitable participants, arranging their clear- ances, devising a program of lectures, getting commitments from qualified lecturers, arranging rooms, security facilities, field trips, transportation, housing, finances, catering service and the myriad other details, seemed all but insuperable. The August date was accordingly chosen as the latest one which would not interfere with the resumption of university classes in the fall. The first problem was to find promising young scientists having the necessary time and interest. For- tunately, much of the spade work in identifying bright young university people is done each year by the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation, which seeks just such scientists-in Chemistry, Physics and Mathematics--as possible recipients of Sloan Fellowships. Through the courtesy of Dr. Larkin H. Farinholt, Sloan Foundation Vice Presi- dent for Scientific Affairs, recent lists of Sloan nominees were placed at our disposal. Using these lists partly as a guide, along with additional names gleaned from a near-infinity of reference phone calls to senior univer- sity scientists and engineers across the country, some hundred individuals were sent copies of the Seminar prospectus and questionnaire. According to the prospectus, the Seminar would: ? be established on a trial basis for a period of three years, running for four weeks each during the summers of 1964, 1965 and 1966; ? involve an audience of about thirty participants drawn from the 30-35 age group and comprised largely of university assistant and associate professors in physics, chemistry and engineering, with a leavening of mathematicians, life scientists and military officers; ? invite distinguished civilian and military experts for periods of 1-3 days to offer lectures during morn- ings, and to conduct more intimate discussions in the afternoons (security classificaticn no higher than Secret Restricted Data); ? provide housing, lecture rooms and security facilities on the UCLA campus; ? pay all expenses of invited university auditors, and in addition provide a stipend related to their regular salary (based on the standard 9-month academic appointment) according to the National Academy formula; ? request that invited military personnel and scientists from Government laboratories be given ap- propriate temporary reassignment for the duration of the Seminar. Returns on the questionnaire were remarkably complete (77%), with only 18% indicating no interest whatever. Thus encouraged, OSD Contract SD-262 was executed for ARPA with UCLA to operate the Seminar. In order to give the military departments a strong interest and feeling of participation, Dr. Charles M. Herzfeld, Deputy Director of ARPA and designated Liaison Officer for the Seminar, contacted the Assistant Secretaries for R&D of the Army, Navy and Air Force by letter inviting them to: (a) select one of their staff to act as a point of contact and serve as a member of an informal Seminar steering committee; (b) suggest topics and lecturers for the Seminar; (c) nominate officer and civilian candidates from their respective Services to attend as participants; (d) consider ways and means of utilizing their graduates of the Seminar on various scientific committees; and (e) assist with the funding of the Seminar to the extent of one-sixth each of the total cost. Except for the funding clause (e), the same invitation was addressed to the Chairman of the Atomic Energy Commission, Dr. Glenn T. Seaborg; the President's Science Advisor, Dr. Donald F. Hornig; the Chair- man of the Defense Science Board, Dr. Frederick Seitz; and the Chairman of the Service Advisory Committees: Dean Morrough P. O'Brien, Chairman, Army Science Advisory Panel; Dr. Eric Walker, Chairman, Naval Re- search Advisory Committee; and Dr. H. Guyford Stever, Chairman, Air Force Scientific Advisory Board. In response to these requests, the following liaison representatives were designated by their respective agencies: Service/Agency Representative Department of the Army, Research & Development ................ Dr. Ivan R. Hershner, Jr. Department of the Navy, Research & Development .................... Dr. John N. Adkins Department of the Air Force, Research & Development ............. Lt. Gen. James Ferguson Atomic Energy Commission .............................. Brig. Gen. Delmar Crowson Office of Science & Technology ................................ Dr. Vincent V.

Bull Naval Research Advisory Committee ............ ................. Dr. John N. Adkins Air Force Scientific Advisory Board ............................. Col. Robert J. Burger From the invitee questionnaire responses and the list of Service nominees, a selection was made and formal invitations were issued. The list of invitees was provided to ARPA in the person of Mr. Daniel Sullivan, who processed papers from the candidates for OSD security clearance certification and need-to-know for access to materials and field stations. Administration of the physical security for the University was handled by the Office of Naval Research Branch Office, Pasadena.

However, in this first session the lateness of the decision to proceed found many competing academic commitments and conflicts -the Conference on Theoretical Physics in Dubna, the Conference on Molecular Quantum Mechanics in Istanbul, the Gordon Research Conferences, and other such attractive diversions. As a conse- quence the rather inverted ratio of one-third university personnel to two-thirds military and govern- ment-laboratory personnel was achieved. Nevertheless, it was one of the liveliest such groups ever assembled, and the lecturers could scarcely have hoped for a more critical and appreciative reception. The background and interests of the auditors are given in some detail below in the hope of pub- licizing their participation and special interests to a wide audience of potential consumers. JOHN D.

While this could not be in any sense accomplished in the few field trips possible during the Seminar, it seemed important to make a start in this direction in order to demonstrate the value of such visits as aids in normalizing the intuition and in providing a point-of-refer- ence for the more abstract theoretical studies. Accordingly, five one-day field trips (one overnight) were distributed throughout the four weeks of the Seminar. Limitations of time and distance from Seminar headquarters in Los Angeles confined these trips to Western United States, a restriction we hope to relax in future sessions. Without exception, the Seminar was welcomed most cordially. Each agency provided excellent briefings and informative tours of their facilities, as illustrated by the condensed schedules below: Friday, 7 August-VANDENBERG AIR FORCE BASE, California The trip to Vandenberg AFB was arranged through the good offices of Dr. J. Robert Burnett, MINUTEMAN Program Director, Space Technology Laboratories. The Air Force Ballistic Systems Division provided an airplane to transport the group to Vanden- berg. 0930 Welcome by Maj.

Robert J. Trauger, USN, Commanding Officer. In addition to spot visits by Capt. Trauger, Cdr. Harold M. Steeves, USN (Ex- ecutive Officer), LCdr. Thomas J. Kennedy, USNR (Research Reserve Program Officer) and Mr. Leon H. Connell (Security Specialist), two ONR representatives were in at- tendance: CWO W. Patrick Bauguess, USN, and Cdr. Edwin V. Dunlop, USNR (Ret). The continuous presence of Cdr. Dunlop, who returned to temporary active status for this purpose, was particularly helpful in the expeditious handling of security. Personnel and visit clearances, need-to-know, and other problems requiring official support were fun- neled through Mr. Daniel J. Sullivan, ARPA Staff Assist ant, who ably fulfilled the role of "Mr. Inside". The details of security management-badges, photographs, notebooks, guard services, paper processing -were arranged by Mr. Don D. Darling of the management consultant firm, Don D. Darling & Associates. In- cluded as part of this package was Mrs. Mary Lue Wolff, who acted as Secretary, Treasurer and Girl Friday to the 35 regular attendees and the numerous distinguished lecturers. Approved For Release 2000/08/25: diA-RDP69B00596R000100190045-7 Approved For Releas000/08/25: CIA-RDP69B00596'100100190045-7 CRITIQUE Because of the short time available and the indelible imprint of the background of the organizers, this first Seminar was weighted heavily toward strategic nuclear questions, with emphasis on Air Force systems. The time devoted to Naval systems was short by comparison, and the coverage of tactical conventional war- fare-and especially of the important contribution of the Army and Marines-was most inadequate. These shortcomings were recognized at the outset, but there is real hope of achieving a better balance in future sessions. In particular, Lt. Gen. W. W. Dick, U.S. Army Deputy Chief of Staff for R&D, and his staff have pre- sented a full day of briefings summarizing some of the Army's field systems and problems, and have out- lined a series of educational visits to Army installations which we are already taking advantage of as back- ground for the next Seminar. We also hope to examine Naval systems somewhat more thoroughly and to consider at least briefly the problems of atomic, biological and chemical warfare. At the end of the Seminar each attendee was asked to write a short critique and to make suggestions for improvements. Many felt the lack of State Department representation in the discussion of National Aims. Apart from the imbalance toward strategic nuclear forces, the content and scope found general approval. Consider- able sentiment was expressed in favor of enlarging the psycho-socio-political context of revolutionary warfare. Some wished for more emphasis on outstanding problems, possibly at the expense of past accomplishments. In some instances the order of topics was not altogether logical, but again this may be improved with greater lead time. The mixed feelings expressed concerning the technical level of the talks indicated that by and large a good average was achieved. A large proportion of the lecturers were singled out by several auditors for their outstanding presentations, and the concensus was that the "faculty" was truly superb. The field trips were generally hailed as an excellent and essential part of the Seminar. The spectre of having to cope with a roomful of voracious questioners over interminable blocks of un- committed time led to a schedule fairly loaded with lectures. A common complaint was thus the inadequacy of discussion time, and the superabundance of daily hours. Although we found time for few movies, even the best of these were in retrospect voted down in favor of more discussion. Some participants even suggested having evening problem sessions! Despite the informal atmosphere and frequent coffee breaks, there is little doubt that occasional recreational periods would have relieved the incipient physical atrophy felt by many. In a future session the generation of a spirit of camaraderie and common purpose-which was not achieved until our Naval Ordnance Test Station bus excursion-should be encouraged as early as possible. Cur feedback indicates that an unexpected bonus of the Seminar may be the establishment of longlived friend- slips and new channels of communication between the institutions and laboratories represented. In any event, it was gratifying that all attendees found the Seminar personally rewarding and thought it worth continuing.

This integration will require time to accomplish, although there is already an encouraging beginning. At this writing, two university participants-Drs. Baldeschwieler and D. Kivelson-have been appointed to the ARPA Advisory Committee on Ballistic Missile Defense. Besides the utilization of the university participants, an equally important question for the military depart- ments and other government agencies is how to make most effective use of the (hopefully!) broadened per- spectives and wider understanding of the attendees they have supplied. It is hoped that this brochure will call wider attention to the Seminar and its alumni amongst potential consumers. Approved For Release 2000/08/25 : C>IA-RDP69B00596R000100190045-7 Approved For Releas000/08/25: CIA-RDP69B0059600100190045-7 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS An undertaking as large and unusual as the Defense Science Seminar is almost bound to end in serious debt to many contributors. Certainly the project could not have been carried through without the enthusiastic support and encouragement of Dr. Harold Brown, DDR&E, Dr. Robert L. Sproull, Director of ARPA, and Dr. Charles M. Herzfeld, Deputy Director of ARPA. For the many special campus arrangements, the way was cleared most effectively by having the backing of Chancellor Franklin D. Murphy. It is a tribute to the dedica- tion of the men in Government service, in our Armed Forces and in the Defense industries that, without excep- tion, each person who was asked to help responded in the most generous manner possible. If the Seminar is not a smashing success, it will not be for lack of cooperation. I am most grateful to all our lecturers, who took time from their busy schedules to share their knowl- edge, experience and perspective with us. Being altogether too familiar with the guarded acquiescence with which academicians grudgingly agree to lecture on their specialties, it came as an agreeable surprise how very willing were Government, Military and Industrial personnel to place their expertise at our disposal and to submit to our most critical questioning. Yet in retrospect, this is perhaps not so surprising. There are few people in positions of responsibility who are so self-sufficient as not to welcome the attention and concurrence of their colleagues. Command and decision comprise a lonely vigil, brightened only by a sense of patriotism and the approval of one's peers. Perhaps there is a moral here-not to be niggardly with such approval lest we find ourselves in a similarly lonely situation! For allowing me to impose on their good offices in arranging field trips, I am greatly indebted to such good friends as Lt. Gen. H. C. Donnelly, Chief, DASA, and Col. Ola P. Thorne, DASA Field Command; Gen. John K. Gerhart, CINC, NORAD; Dr. John Foster, Director, Lawrence Radiation Laboratory; and Dr. J. R. Bur- nErtt, MINUTEMAN Program Director, Space Technology Laboratories. Lt. Gen. James Ferguson, AF Deputy Chief of Staff for R&D, and his staff-particularly Col. H. C. Teubner and Mr. John W. Fillius, AFSTP-were most hE'Ipful in arranging air transportation, was also Mr. Bernard Korenblit (ARPA). Here I want to thank Lt. Gen. W. Austin Davis, then Commander of the USAF Ballistic Systems Division, and Maj. Gen. Ben Funk, Commander of the Space Systems Division, for use of their planes-kindly arranged by Lt. Col. H. B. Stuber, AFBSQ-on our trips respectively to Vandenberg Air Force Base and the Lawrence Radiation Laboratory; and to express our appreciation to Lt. Col. John T. Moore, Operations Officer, 44? Air Transport Squadron (MATS) at Travis AFB, and particularly to Capt. Kenneth L. Cox and his crew who flew us on their C-135 jet to DASA Field Command and to NORAD. Through the generosity of Mr. Frank Collbohm, President of The RAND Corporation, and Mr. Claude R. Culp, head of the RAND ARPA project, preparations for the Seminar were supported-both morally and financially-in advance of receiving the contact. During the Seminar, both the Chairman and Vice Chairman were on loan from RAND. Col. Jack Whitener, in his role as Seminar Vice Chairman, not only made extensive arrangements for classified film showings, but also participated in the Seminar discussions and shepherded the Seminar on its field trips to Vandenberg AFB and the Naval Ordnance Test Station. A further RAND con- tribution was the sound advice on security matters given by Messrs. Richard H. Best and David H. Williams. Finally, RAND contributed a large and especially well-qualified contingent of lecturers, as well as several of the participants. The work of the Service representatives in locating especially capable military officers and laboratory personnel to attend the Seminar was extremely important. The Army, with its large group of attendees, was particularly successful in this. Our best thanks go to Mr. Daniel J. Sullivan, ARPA Staff Assistant, and Mr. Samuel E. Clements, Executive Assistant, ODDR&E, for help in the Pentagon with the contract and with the thorny matter of security, and to Mrs. Frankie R. Fernald (ARPA) for her Sunday and sunny assistance; to Capt. Robert J. Trauger, Office of Naval Research, Pasadena, and his staff-especially Cdr. Edwin Dunlop and CWO Pat Bauguess, who were in regular attendance at the Seminar-for their attentive and considerate supervision of security; to Mr. Arthur F. Schaeffer, UCLA Contracts and Grants Officer, and Messrs.. John E. Codd and E. W. Herl (OSD) for assistance with the contract; to Mr. Don Darling for his all-round know-how and efficiency; to Mr. Barry Hoelscher, Dr. E. R. Hardwick and Mr. E. H. Beckers for their ability to work miracles of procurement; to Messrs. Kenneth A. Weydert, Chalmers H. Fletcher and Robert M. Rook for compressing the usual purchasing time scale; to Messrs. John P. Hooten and Arnold Rudin for their rapid service and attractive furnishings; to Mr. Victor E. Thompson for relinquishing his glassblowing office; to Miss Sharon Stalder and Mrs. Marie Grace for endless hours of transcription; to Capt. Lynn Boyd and Lt. Bill P. Collins of the UCLA Campus Police for their assistance with facility surveillance; to Mrs. Sally A. Meisenholder for parking arrangements; and to the UCLA Sproul Hall Food Service in the person of Mr. Carl L. Glaser for the elegant luncheons. I am especially grateful to Mrs. Mary Lue Wolff for her constant attention and cheerfulness in personaliz- ing the administration of the Seminar; and to my secretaries, Miss Ellen S. Dunlevy and Mrs. Madelon Lopez, for working overtime in preparation and in tending the near-infinity of telephone calls and letters. Finally, I want to thank the Seminar participants for their enthusiastic reception, critical appreciation and sustained interest. The short time available to arrange the Seminar caused me to make outrageous requests and imposi- tions on many friends. I can only hope I have not squandered too much of my precious store of good will . . .
