controversial issues. Colby, as CIA
director from 1973-76, supervised
the United States’ entire intelli

He became a pivotal influence on
American Foreign policy.

Doctor develops
huge microscope
United Press International
LOS ANGELES — Microscopes
help scientists see inside small dabs
of blood or bits of tissue after the
matter has been taken from the
body and put on a slide. Now
there’s a microscope that can hold a
whole body.
Dr. Wallace Frasher of the Uni
versity of Southern California Med
ical School wanted to look at the
blood and tissue while it was still in
the body. So USC and the Califor
nia Institute of Technology in
Pasadena developed a microscope
to do the job.
The problem was that very little
is known about how blood gets
through tiny capillaries half the size
of the blood cells they carry. Capil
laries are ho more than a thousandth
of an inch thick and they compose
the micro-circulatory system.
The basic design of the mi
croscope was developed by USC in
association with Dr. Harold Way-
land of Caltech. A prototype model
was built at the Pasadena school and
the working model was built at
USC’s lab.
Daniel Netto, an optical engineer
who had worked on the 200-inch
Palomar telescope, devised the lens
system for Frasher’s microscope.
It uses a telescoping mechanism
and lenses focused at infinity, and
allows the researcher to move the
tube containing the lenses up or
down.
The next step was to build a plat
form that would hold an animal and
keep it from wiggling, provide
necessary life support systems,
house the optical system, and allow
the researcher access to I
Machinist Marty Nagel builll

The platform was so well se
it would take a “killer ear

ruins,” he added.
Working with other doclt:
Frasher found a way to recordij
quantity of matter being transfen
from the blood to the tissues!
using a very small crystal of radio
tive matter.
Frasher said he hopes no\sj
