ES&T debuts, names 10 to advisory board The first issue of the Society's newest journal, Environmental Science ir Technology, has now been mailed to subscribers. It contains a variety of staff-written reports and news items on current activities in environment control and a series of research papers by the scientists involved in, as edi tor James J. Morgan says in his intro ductory editorial, "advances in chem istry and chemical technology in relation to the understanding of the nature of the natural environment and control of environmental pollution." The new journal's editor has also appointed a 10-man advisory board to advise him on content and to assist, where requested, in solving problems that may arise. To establish a rotat ing appointment system, four mem bers have been named to three-year terms, three to two-year terms, and three to one-year terms. Appointed for three years are Dr. S. K. Friedlander, professor of chemi cal engineering and environmental health engineering at California Insti tute of Technology; Dr. Edward D. Goldberg, professor of chemistry at University of California, San Diego; Dr. Harry P. Gregor, professor of physical chemistry at Polytechnic In stitute of Brooklyn; and Dr. James N. Pitts, Jr., professor of chemistry at Uni versity of California, Riverside. Those serving two-year terms are
