172 BOARD OF TRUSTEES design concept is the technique used to combine the coordinates that define wheel position with the coordinates that define the vehicle motion wanted by the operator. The Committee recommends that the rights of the University in this invention be assigned to the inventor. 11. Utilization of lead scandium niobate-lead titanate solid solutions as piezoelectric: ceramic elements — Victor J. Tennery, formerly Professor of Ceramic Engineering, Urbana, Kenneth W. Hang, Assistant in Ceramic Engineering, Urbana, and Richard E. Novak, Research Assistant in Ceramic Engineering, Urbana, inventors; developed under the sponsorship of the Advanced Research Projects Agency. The unique feature of this invention is the realization of higher piezoelectric coupling coefficients than those in barium titanate modified systems and as high as those in the system lead zirconate-lead titanate. This system has previously contained the most active ceramic piezoelectric materials known. The Committee recommends that the rights of the University in this invention be assigned to the University of Illinois Foundation for study and possible patent application, subject to the rights of the sponsoring agency. 12. Total consumption burner for premixed acetylene-nitrous oxideflames— Victor G. Mossotti, Senior Research Chemist, Urbana, inventor; developed under the sponsorship of the Advanced Research Projects Agency. This device is useful as a light source for the direct detection of dissolved metallic impurities in liquid analytical samples. The burner, a composite of commercially available components, is fed with a fuel-oxidant system having special combustion properties and flame chemistry, and is operated in a unique way so as to provide advantages for emission spectroscopy heretofore unreported in a single burner system. The Committee recommends that the rights of the University in this invention be assigned to the University of Illinois Foundation for study and possible patent application, subject to the rights of the sponsoring agency. On motion of Mr. Clement, these recommendations were approved. On motion of Mr. Grimes, the Board adjourned. EARL W. PORTER TIMOTHY W. SWAIN Secretary President LUNCHEON GUESTS Representatives of the faculty and students of the College of Pharmacy at the Medical Center and representatives from the College of Pharmacy Advisory Committee, the Chicago Pharmacists' Association, Illinois Council of Hospital Pharmacists, Illinois Pharmaceutical Association, Chicago Retail Druggists' Association, Illinois State Board of Pharmacy were guests of the Board at luncheon.
