The Los Angeles Times said that Dr. Bruce Murray would resign later in 1982 as director of JPL. In "an emotional speech" televised to all 5,000 JPL employees, Murray said that he was leaving to move on "to the next phase of my own professional career." He reminded his audience that from the time he arrived at JPL he planned to stay for only 5 to 10 years. The announcement came at the start of his seventh year as director; he had served since April 1, 1976. The California Institute of Technology (CalTech), operator of JPL under contract to NASA, had not chosen a successor. (LA limes, Apr 3/82, 1)
