A $50,000 contribution to conduct basic cancer research in the Miriam Levy Finn laboratories of the Weizmann Institute’s Center of Experimental Biology at Rehovoth, Israel, was made this week-end by Joseph Levy on behalf of the Joseph and Helen Yeaman Levy Foundation. Mr. Levy presented the $50, 000 check to Abraham Feinberg, president of the American Committee for the Weizmann Institute, as a memorial for his daughter, Miriam, for whom the Weizmann Institute wing was named.
