became a professor in 1945 at the second Moscow Medical 

 Institute. In 1949 he was made Director of the Severtsov Insti- 

 tute of Morphology of Animals of the U.S.S.R. Academy of Sci- 

 ences. He has been a member of the Communist Party of the 

 Soviet Union since 1940. He was elected, in 1953, a Corre- 

 sponding Member of the U.S.S.R. Academy of Sciences. In 1947 

 he was an Honored Scientist of the R.S.F.S.R. The U.S.S.R. 

 Academy of Sciences awarded him, in 1949, the I. I. Mechnikov 

 Prize. 



Krushchov has worked in comparative and experimental hist- 

 ology and cytology. He has been working on the stimulating 

 role of leucocytes of blood in restoration processes.

I. A. Kibel' was born October 19, 1904. He graduated from 

 the University of Saratov in 1925. From 1925 to 1943, he 

 worked at the Main Geophysical Observatory. In 1943, he start- 

 ed to work at the Central Institute of Weather Forecasting in 

 Moscow, where he was made a professor in 1949. In 1941, he 

 was awarded a Stalin Prize, and in 1943, he was elected to the 

 U.S.S.R. Academy of Sciences as a Corresponding Member. 



Kibel' compiled a closed simplified system of equations in dy- 

 namic meteorology in order to obtain some specific solutions in 

 this system. In 1940 he obtained the first approximate solution 

 to the problem of precalculating a field of pressure and tem- 

 perature for a time interval of approximately twenty -four hours, 

 basing the proximity of actual wind to geostrophic wind.
