The Weizmann Memorial Laboratories in the new Biology Building of the Hebrew University-Hadassah Medical School were dedicated here yesterday at ceremonies attended by many leading figures in Israeli cultural and governmental life, including Mrs. Vera Weizmann, widow of the late President.

The new laboratories will include four laboratories for student purposes and six for research work. When completed, the new facilities will more than double the ability of the University to train science students, including those taking pre-medical courses.

(In London last night, the Philharmonic Orchestra, under the baton of the noted Italian conductor Guido Gantelli, played a concert dedicated to the memory of the late Dr. Chaim Weizmann. The proceeds of the concert, which was sponsored by the Friends of the Israel Philharmonic Orchestra, will be used to benefit music and science in Britain and Israel.)
