SOLAR TELEPHONES-College students attending the 59th annual Congress of American Industry in the Waldorf-Astoria hotel as guests of the National Association of Manufacturers were shown a demonstration of a solar battery, the first successful device to convert useful amounts of the sun's energy directly into electricity. Developed by scientists at Bell Telephone laboratories, the battery was used to power the transmission of the students' voices over telephone instruments. Pictured taking part in the demonstration are, from left, John M. Simpson, business junior, a student at the University; Peter F. Frenzer, Omaha, Neb., a student at Creighton university, and Ben
Coffin, Prairie Village, a student at Kansas State college.
Nuclear Energy Discussed By Panel of Professors
A panel discussion on "Nuclear Energy: Killer, Savior, or Both' was given last night at the Graduate club meeting.
Members of the panel were L. Worth Seagondollar, associate professor of physics; Charles Leone, associate professor of zoology; W. J. Argersinger, associate professor of chemistry; Paul Roofe, professor of anatomy; Edward J. McBride, professor of mechanical engineering, and Charles Warriner, assistant professor of sociology.
Prof. Seagondollar, who witnessed the first atomic bomb explosion at Almogordo, N.M., said he agreed with the physicist, Robert Oppenheimer, that the hydrogen bomb should not have been developed. He said he thought it was a waste of time and American dollars, because it will completely vaporize a city, whereas the atomic bomb is better for our targets.
The problem of radiation effect on human tissue and the use of radioactive isotopes in peacetime therapy were discussed by Prof. Roofe, According to Prof. Argersinger, the atomic energy is a short range killer, but a long range savior.
The secondary effects of radiation were pointed out by Prof. Leone, and Prof. Warriner discussed the behavior of people under the threat of bombing and actual attack. The non-military aspects of atomic energy were discussed by Prof. McBride, who said that in 80 or 90 years our power resources would be used up, and atomic energy would be drastically needed.
Although the United States Trust Territory of Pacific Islands—from the western Carolines to the eastern Marshalls—is as wide as the entire United States, its 2,000 coral and lava atolls and outcrops contain only enough solid land to make half a Rhode Island.
Army National Guard units received 88 Presidential unit citations for "outstanding performance of duty in action or for conspicuous valor or heroism" during World War II.
