...only two dailies in town. The morning Enquirer has been a chain possession since 1956, but Publisher Roger Ferger does not go to the annual meetings (he is not invited) and does not receive the Washington-written editorials (he would not run them). Nor does the Scripps-Howard lighthouse beam from the Enquirer's masthead. The Enquirer endorsed Ohio Republican William O'Neill for Governor in 1958, the Post & Times-Star supported Democrat Mike Di Salle. > To an even greater degree than the Cincinnati Post, the Cleveland Press picks local candidates without regard to their political hue. After...
...actual experimentation, the electron beam will be aimed at a protonrich liquid hydrogen target. The electrons will be scattered as they emerge from the target. Scientists hope that close study of the scattering pattern may yield clues to the internal composition of the proton, which is no longer considered an indivisible particle but rather a composite of smaller bodies...
...this second experiment the beam will be used to create, through bombardment of a special target, a stream of high energy photons. The photons, in turn, will be directed into a hydrogen bubble chamber. Interaction of the photons with the hydrogen nuclei will produce strange particles. These particles will leave a track of bubbles in the hydrogen, and in this way can be observed and studied...
...side of the experimental hall, scientists have constructed one of the most important pieces of apparatus to be used in the C.E.A.'s experimental program: a liquid helium cryostat. This device will cool and liquify gases, principally hydrogen, for beam targets and bubble chambers. The bubble chambers are large jars of liquid hydrogen, and are used as tracking devices. Many short-lived, invisible particles leave a track of bubbles as they travel through the hydrogen. These tracks can be photographed and later studied...
Standing about on the floor of the hall are a number of large bending magnets, created to deflect the beam toward targets, as it comes from the accelerator itself. Adjacent to the hall is a huge machine shop, enabling technicians to turn out special fittings on the spot...
