We cite evidence which indicates that infrared galaxies may represent evolutionary stages during which a large number of massive stars are being formed. The lifetimes of these stars would be rather short (1-10 million years), and the resulting supernova explosions could account for the level of nonthermal activity which often accompanies the thermal infrared emission.
