Abstract

A derivation in the canonical formulation of the Wess-Zumino anomaly is given. This leads naturally to a construction of half-integer-spin, anticommuting operators starting from spin-zero bosonic ones. This fermionic operator creates a state that is a superposition of all half-integer spins. This is related to the effective Lagrangian for QCD.
