But somebody noodled... 64 Why not make a dipper with no moving parts?” Make it so that calories of heat from the user’s hand shoot right down the handle to the cup. Then the ice cream will drop out easily. That called for a material that transfers heat fast. So the dipper was made of Alcoa Aluminum, and the hollow handle filled with liquid. And, by golly, it worked • • ; perfectly. The dipper sells. No “Einstein” at work here; •; just plain American ingenuity of the kind graduated every year from our colleges and universi ties. Imagination plus engineering . . ; or “Imagineering” as we like to call it at Alcoa . . . did the trick.
