Ten members of Congress have been presented with the Friends of Science Award by the National Coalition for Science and Technology (NCST). The awards, honoring significant contributions to science, engineering, and science education, are made every 2 years at the end of the congressional session. The recipients this year are Sen. Pete V. Domenici (R‐N.M.), Rep. Joseph D. Early (D‐Mass.), Rep. Bill Frenzel (R‐Minn.), Rep. Albert Gore, Jr. (D‐Tenn.), Rep. Judd Gregg (R‐N.H.), Sen. Daniel K. Inouye (D‐Hawaii), Rep. Stan Lundine (D‐N.Y.), Sen. Sam Nunn (D‐Ga.), Rep. Henry Waxman (D‐Calif.), and Rep. Ed Zschau (R‐Calif).Except for Sen. Inouye, whose term expires in 1986, all of this year's recipients were up for reelection in the national elections held November 6. All were successful in securing another term in Congress. In addition, Albert Gore was successful in his bid for a Senate seat, filling the vacancy left by the retiring Senate Majority Leader Howard H. Baker (R‐Tenn.)
