Dickinson, former star of the tele vision series “Police Woman,” told officers she was awakened at her Col- dwater Canyon home by the sound of breaking glass at a neighbor’s house. She said she looked outside and saw a man running to a nearby home. When officers arrived at the scene, she told them where the sus pect had gone. Film producer Wil liam Tennant was arrested moments later and booked on suspicion of felony vandalism. Officers said Tennant, who was re leased on $1,000 bail, appeared to be under the influence of some drug or medication.

W. Cronin heard the news he had won a Nobel Prize Tuesday, then headed for the physics class he is taking from one of his col leagues at the University of Chicago. “Wow! I can’t believe it — what can I say,” Cronin, 49, exclaimed on learning he and Val L. Fitch of Prince ton University had received the $215,000 Nobel Prize for physics for a discovery supporting one theory of the universe s creation. “Thank you,” he added simply. Then Cronin, a graduate of Highland Park High School and Southern Methodist Univerity in Dallas, headed for his morning physics class on general relativ- j ity. His secretary, Marypat Sharer, said university offi cials decided not to release details on the course “be cause of Dr. Cronin’s respect for the teacher, who would not like any disturbances in his class.” The Swedish Royal Academy of Sciences awarded the physics prize for the discovery in 1964 of the “Fitch- Cronin effect, ” which upset a basic principle of physics and became a support for the Big-Bang theory of crea tion and how matter was formed. Cronin and Fitch, who were working at Brookhaven National Laboratory on Long Island, N. Y., made a dis covery that upset the fundamental concept of time- reversal invariance — which held physical laws* unchanged when the direction of time is revei* Stated simply, the law held that in the physiali| any event could be performed both backwards a wards.

The space probe, one of two Voyagers, has been cruising toward Saturn ever since it swept by Jupiter 20 months ago and startled scientists with one discovery after another. Before Voyager with its two television cameras makes its closest approach to Saturn at 77,174 miles, it will take an even closer look at its moon Titan, the largest satellite in the solar system and the only one with a substantial atmosphere. Voyager will fly to within 2,500 miles of Titan, which is about the size of the planet Mercury. The moon is blanketed by clouds, but scientists hope there will be enough breaks to give Voyager’s cameras the first look at the mysterious moon’s surface. Scientists have speculated that Titan’s atmosphere could support life, but its prevailing low temperatures of 324 degrees below zero Fahrenheit makes it unlikely. Voyager 1 is followed by its twin. Voyager 2, which will arrive at Saturn next August and then shoot onward to other encounters with Uranus in January 1986 and possibly Neptune in September 1989. Voyager 1, however, will be kicked by Saturn’s grav ity onto a trajectory that will take it eventually out of the solar system and into deep space. When Voyager arrives at Saturn, the giant planet will be 947,633,145 miles from Earth.
