Kettering, vice president of | General Motors, has given $200,000 to study what many scientists regard as man’s most interesting riddle, how plants make food and shelter, | The gift, announced tonight, 1s made Iw Antloch College here for a 10-year | research. As president of the General Motors Research Corporation, Mr. Ket- tering has had opportunity to know the almost fantastic possibilities that may be opened by success in this investiga- tion. The research seeks the secret of chlorophyll. This, in substance, is to imply the green coloring matter in plants, one of the world’s commonest | chemicals. It is the stuff used by plants to change the sun’s energy and | the chemicals of the air into sugars, | starches, cellulose and all the thousands | of plant products. Chlorophyll stores | the sunlight energy that comes from | | burning coal.

Inman, now dean of the college and head of the biology depart- ment, will resign as dean to take care of the project. Both he and Mr. Ket- | tering have long been interested in photo synthesis. A few months ago | they discovered their common interest | and made their plans.
