Dr. William Shockley, a Nobel Prize-winning physicist who has donated
sperm in an attempt to produce genetically superior children, said his
children "in terms of my own capacities ... represent a very significant
regression. My first wife - their mother - had not as high an academic-
achievement standing as I had," Shockley was quoted as saying in the August
issue of Playboy magazine. Shockley said one son was a college dropout and a
daughter was graduated from Radcliffe. A second son, he said, had graduated
from Stanford.
