There were 5 events of the reaction ..nu../sub ..mu../ + e/sup -/ ..-->.. ..nu../sub ..mu../ + e/sup -/ in a sample of approximately 50,000 charged current neutrino interactions in a heavy neon-hydrogen mixture in the 15 foot bubble chamber at Fermilab. This result is in rough agreement with the prediction of the Weinberg-Salam model with the currently favored value of the mixing angle, sin/sup 2/ theta approximately 1/4.
