Dr. Milton Silverman, science e d i to r o( the San Francisco Chronicle, and guest lecturer this week claims he has the most exciti ng job in the world-covering scientific research. In addition to a daily lecture at 11 a.m. in the LOS Institute of Religion, Dr. Silverman will address scie nc e writers from the inLermountain area in the Science Wl'iter's workshop Thursday and :F'riday. According to Dr. Silverman, science reporting is more than the usual news-hunting and news-telling job. He has spent some two decades in newspap er work and, simultaneously, in doing his own labo1·atory research in bacteriology, biochemistry and the devel-opment of new drugs. A native San Franciscan, he received his A.B. degree from Sanford university, his M.A. from the University o( California, and his Ph.D. in biochemistry from Sanford. Besides research work on synthetic sugars, anesthetics, petroleum derivatives, industrial poisons and war gases, he has acted as research associate at the University of California Medical school. A trained reporter as well as n trained scientist, Dr. Silverman has been in newspaper work since 1928, starting out as a sports writer and working himself up to his present position on the science desk of the Chronicle. Dr. Silverman was the first to report to his readers such scienti(ic advances as the development of the atom-smashing cyclotron, the first animal and human experiments with "hot atoms," the discovery of penicillin and the sulfa -drugs, radar, the Sister Kenny treatment for polio, and the discovery of the world's great est earthquake faults. He has also written numerous articles for magazines, and is now one of the Sat u rday Evening Post's most frequent contributors of scientific artic les. His book, "Magic in a Bottle," the story of the great drugs used in medicine, has been reprinted In England, France, Sweden, Finland, Germany, Brazil and Argentina.
