The Julius Kalman Science Center, newest and largest teaching and research facility at Brandeis University, was dedicated yesterday. Chief Justice Raymond A. Wilkins of the Supreme Court of Massachusetts, was the chief speaker at the dedication ceremony.

The center is a four-story building, featuring a protective storage area for radio-active materials, a special room for experiments with explosive materials and air-conditioned laboratories for animals used for studies. The center is named for the late Mr. Kalman, a Boston financier. He bequeathed $1, 250, 000 to the center, which cost two and a quarter million dollars. His gift is the largest single benefaction to Brandeis to date.
