From these preliminary experiments, he devised a method of administering anesthesia by attaching a coil to two major blood vessels of dogs. Blood would flow through the coil and past a silicone tube filled with ether...

...electromagnetic submarine (EMS-1) in Santa Barbara works on the same principle. Its storage batteries send current through a large coil wound bow to stern, inside the cylindrical section of the hull, setting up a magnetic field in the surrounding sea water. The same batteries send electric current through the salty water between two electrodes, one on each side of the sub. Because the current flows at right angles to the magnetic field generated by the coil, electromagnetic force is exerted against the conductor-which in this case is the sea water itself. As the sea water is pushed back...

Tingling Sensation. Under Way's guidance, and with about $1,600 worth of storage batteries, the electromagnetic coil, aluminum tubing and fiberglass reinforced plastic paid for by the university, the engineering seniors completed the EM51 during the spring semester. They successfully demonstrated it for the first time this June. Subsequent experiments uncovered a few problems, though none seem impossible of solving in the construction of a full-scale sub. Electric current passing through the water between the electrodes produces some electrolysis; molecules of water break down into hydrogen and oxygen, which rises to the surface in the form...

...long since reached the terrestrial top of his profession and, in a skeptical age, out lived Olympus. As Father Divine, the pyknic, cherub-faced leader of countless thousands who believed that he was God Himself and Dean of the Universe had, in a sense, shuffled off the mortal coil some 50 years earlier...
