BEACH, N. D. (A*) — Someone
who stopped at Painted Canyon, a
Badlands scenic spot, not only
took a look, but a 750 telescope as
well.
Roy Noyes, owner of the import
ed instrument, said the thief used
a hacksaw to sever it from its base
in a stone wall.

ALAMOGORDO, N.M., (A*)—The
Alamogordo Daily News received
a news release stating that White
Sands Proving Grounds is in crit
ical need of qualified typists to fill
jobs. The News said editorially,
“When they said that they are
sending out an SOS for qualified
typists, we really believed them.
There were eight typographical
errors in the one-page release we
read.”

$l 1 A MILLION RESEARCH CENTER
(Continued from Page 1)
servative estimate, Texas feed
handlers are saving a million dol
lars a year, right now, through us
ing our findings.”
In the case of such research as
that on “Guajillo Wobbles,” work is
in the stage now of trying to find
an antidote to the poisonous sub
stance in Guajillo plants—which
causes development of “wobbles”
or “limberleg” in sheep.
Scientists have already isolated
the toxic substance, and published
this information for veterinarians
in a report bearing the awesome
title: “The Toxic Agent Isolated
from Acacia Berlandieri, N-Methyl
beta Phenylethylamine.” Now, the
idea is to find ah antidote.
“Guajillo is a plant that is very
necessary as a source of livestock
feed in some areas of West Tex
as,” says Dr. Lyman. “So, We
can’t destroy it. We have to learn
how to use it properly.”
Sponsored research in a wide
area of biochemical problems at the
present time involves some $109,-
000 in grants-in-aid from federal
agencies ranging from the office
of Naval Research to the U. S.
Public Health Service, and includ
ing a number of private industries.
Among these projects, one of
the more interesting involves a
study of the effects of irradiation
on the nutritive values of food.
The U. S. Army is seeking to find
out if food, sterilized by atomic
radiation, and kept fresh, is chang
ed in nutritive value by this meth
od of sterilization.
In this project, rats are being
fed diets of irradiated foods, to the
fourth generation, and the results
are reported back to the United
States Army, which is supporting
the work at A&M with a grant of
$22,000.
Results of the studies belong to
the Army, and the work is consid
ered sufficiently important by that
arm of the government to involve
11 other institutions over the na
tion. Several millions of dollars
are tied to finding out what hap
pens in food sterilized by fission
able materials.
Some research is confusing, at
first glance, by the layman. Why,
for example, is it important to de
vise artificial diets for bollworms ?
“Well,” explains Dr. Lyman “de
velopment of artificial diets means
that the bollworms can be raised
any time of year. A constant sup
ply can be kept on hand for studies
on control measures. It used to
be that our research on bollworm
control was handicapped by the
seasonal aspects of their life cy
cle. Now, this is no longer true,
and we think we can speed up re
search on control. And we think
that what speeds up research on
bollworm control is important to
Texas agriculture.”
No- Texas cotton farmer is go
ing to argue that last statement.
The new building is expected to
provide biochemical research work
ers with better facilities for tack
ling a wide spread of agricultural
problems to which, they believe,
chemistry has the answer.
“All of us today, both in bio
chemistry, and as laymen, know
how closely agricultural progress
is tied to chemistry,” declares Dr.
Lyman. “We know that in many
areas it may be fundamental re
search that is needed, in others it
may be an immediate answer to a
specific problem. But, in all areas
of agriculture, chemistry can help
find the answers to some of our
most pressing problems.”
The biochemistry center was de
signed to help find these answers.
