Harrisburg reports the state Department of Agriculture authorized research on leukosis by Penn State University under contract.

Two additional Penn State led projects on hatchery disinfectants and on waste utilization were launched. Poultry remains a major industry second only to dairying, with eggs contributing about 144 million dollars in 1965.
