I remember Nazi election propaganda posters showing a hateful Jewish face with crooked nose.

In the evenings I studied chemistry at the University of Chicago, the weekends I helped in the family store.

I feel I learned as much from fellow students as from the professors.

I joined the Army and was sent to the MIT radiation laboratory after a few months of introduction to electromagnetic wave theory in a special course, given for Army personnel at the University of Chicago.

I'm now a bit anti-Jewish since my last visit to the synagogue, but my atheism does not necessarily reject religion.

I had no new ideas on the physics we might learn, and I could not compete with the younger generation.

In 1933, the Nazis came to power and the more systematic persecution of the Jews followed quickly. Laws were enacted which excluded Jewish children from higher education in public schools.
