The sym posium was held for poultrymen in the Monterrey and-Saltillo areas. After the dedication and sym posium, Quisenherry traveled to Mexico City to assist Ignacio Des- champs, technical director of the Institute Mexicano de Investiga- ciones Technologicas, with poultry research problems. AT CANADIAN POST A&M Prof Helps In. Eclipse Study Dr. John P. German, professor and research engineer in the De partment Of Electrical Engineer ing, will join University of Illi nois researchers this week in the wilderness of Canada in an effort to study some effects of the July 20 eclipse of the sun. He will be at Moose River, On tario, a remote railroad siding on the Ontario Northland Railway 25 miles south of James Bay. Ac cording to a U. and I. press re lease this will be one of five such stations. THE PROJECT is financed by a $79,500 grant from the National Science Foundation. In charge is Professor George W. Swenson Jr., who holds appointments at Illinois in both astronomy and electrical engineering. The scientists are interested in what happens to the ionosphere and especially its upper regions, 200 miles above the earth, when sunlight is quickly shut off. Normally the cycle from light to dark and back takes 24 hours. The eclipse will produce the ef fect in 2% hours. The U. of I. release said that the moon will perform a double role for the scientists. By shut tering off the sun it will produce the eclipse and at the same time will serve as a radio mirror to reflect probing radio signals down through the darkened heavens. THREE OF the stations will he in the path of the total eclipse, the Moose River camp where German will work, one at Willbeach, an other railroad siding in Canada, and the third at Northway, 250 miles southeast of Fairbanks in Alaska. A fourth station will be in Pull man, Wash., to intercept signals reflected parallel to the earth’s magnetic field. The fifth will be near Danville, 111., where the eclipse will be 60 per cent of total. Men and equipment . for the Alaskan and Canadian stations is to leave Urbana, 111. late this week in two steel cabooses rented for the project from the Illinois Central Railroad. Electronics will give the re searchers an advantage over those planning visual observations of the eclipse. Clouds or rain will not interfere with radio signals, though a severe thunderstorm might. THE SCIENTISTS will use po larizer radio signals, reflected from the moon, to measure the number and changes of electrons in the ionosphere. The) release said that all five stations will operate several days before and after July 20 for in formation to compare with the eclipse. German is not expected back at A&M until early in Au gust. A year of study may be requir ed to interpret data collected. It may provide new insight into the day-night changes in the iono sphere which have direct effect on long distance radio communica tions.

The particular 20-pound sack of seed and other batches may come from growing areas halfway a- cross America. Determining if traces of a new agricultural chemical are found in the seed is the object of the tests at the Cottonseed Products Re search Laboratory. “FOR MANY YEARS,” Labora tory Director A. C.

The lab works in cooperation with the Cotton Research Committee of Texas. “THE BASIC purpose of the laboratory is the development of new products and new uses for Cottonseed, to develop new pro cessing methods and improvements in old methods,” Wamble said. Any quantity of cottonseed or other oilseeds from a few grams up to several tons can be process ed. The labortaory uses four me thods of processing the seed. Wamble said manufacturers and industrial agencies engaged in the development of new agricultural chemical compounds must have in formation on usefulness, toxicity, phytotoxicity and crop flavor alter ations. They also must determine the safe level of use with respect to people, domestic animals and wildlife. “THEY ALSO are responsible,” Wamble said, “for producing stand ardized products, for correct label ing of these products, and for in formation and recommendations given to farmers by their field rep resentatives.” The work at the laboratory on the A&M campus helps manufac turers gain vital information. Testing of small lots of cotton seed and other oilseeds for agri- tural chemicals residues has been done for 18 firms the last five years. |gfT “Sports Car Center” Dealers for Renault-Peugeot & British Motor Cars Sales—Parts—Service ‘We Service All Foreign Cars” 1422 Texas Ave. TA 2-4517 ■ jlZZZZBZZZljLI COACH NORTON’S PANCAKE HOUSE 35 varieties of finest pancakes, aged heavy KC steaks, shrimp, and other fine foods.
