In applying this to naval re search, he said, there is some feel ing among University personnel that research - programs are not basic enough and thus do not.per !nit freedom to inquire and cre ate. "Creativeness .required for re search is often destroyed by tune tables," he said. • • Walker called the "academic at mosphere" a university provides and the repository of knowledge it represents two reasons the Na vy can gain by having research done on a campus. He also said naval research is sometimes advanced farther and faster at a university than in an industrial or government labora tory "simply because the univer sity • attracts a different type of Orson than industry and govern ment do."
