Mcar-'A’hUe, scientists of the General Electric Company developed the pro- ^ csss of making wrought tungsten. , This proved ideal as the target in X-ray tubes and its use for this purpose soon became universal. i JUST AN INCIDENT Then further research resulted in the development of an X-ray tube of a radically new type — the Coolidge Tube — with both electrodes of wrought tungsten and containing the highest attainable vacuum. j But the complication of high-vacuum pumps made the new tube in large < • # ! * 'll -!

Ho carelessly hung his service hat on the knob of a soiled-liner shute openin'! in the hall-way, Poaaibly he did vi : olate an unwritten rule in the code of hospital customs. But what of it? No hat racks were provided and n:> rule forbid such a thing. And th.r deed was committed with no malice aforethought nor with criminal in tent. So, was there a good and suf ficient reason for the surgeon ob- servlag the hat while passing down the hall to stop for an instant and fiercly grasp the headgear, open the door of the rhute, and thrust the hat into the opening, sending it for n ten-foot fall on a dirty floor inside a locked linen room. The act should be considered a prime joke among youngsters or even among student friends. But no acceptable explan ation could well W submitted when the student in question was late for a formation that he would have been present for had the search for hia hat mot taken considerable time.
