The suggestion by Jaffe that if $\sigma$ is a light $q^{2}\bar{q}^{2}$ state $0^{++}$ then even the fundamental chiral transformation properties of the $\sigma$ becomes {\bf unclear}, has stimulated much interest. Adler pointed out that in fact the seminal work on chiral symmetry via PCAC consistency, is really quite consistent with the $\sigma$ being predominantly $q^{2}\bar{q}^{2}$. This interpretation was actually backed by subsequent work on effective Lagrangian methods for linear and non linear realizations. More recent work of Achasov suggests that intermediate four-quark states determine amplitudes involving other scalars $a_{0}(980)$ and $f_{0}(980)$ below 1 GeV, and the report by Ning Wu that study on $\sigma$ meson in $J/\psi \to \omega\pi^{+}\pi^{-}$ continue to support a non $q\bar{q}$ $\sigma$ with mass as low as 390 MeV. It is also noted that more recent re-analysis of $\pi K$ scattering by S. Ishida {\em et al.} together with the work of the E791 Collaboration, support the existence of the scalar $\kappa$ particle with comparatively light mass as well.
