...climate is so varied in thi; big State that a simple "hot" or "cold" doe: not describe both ends of it at the same time Reno, for instance, does have cold, snowy win ters; but her summers are never hot. While Reno is summering with coolish days, and cooler nights, Las Vegas in the southern part of the state is experiencing hot dry days; but wit! most of her nights cool. So rare is snow ir Las Vegas, that when a light snow covered the ground one January morning in 1930, many of the grammar-school children...
This change, Morison stated, is motivated by the facts that the new style, as worn in most universities, is more becoming, cooler, and no longer draws the objection once raised to it. Not only is the neck cut lower, in the newly revived type, but the gown itself is nearly a foot shorter...
...traced a consistent parallel which would show that sunspots cause war, prosperity, disease epidemics or drought. Astronomers agree, however, that at times of sunspot intensity more ultraviolet radiation comes from the sun to earth, the air averages about one degree cooler, slightly more rain falls and there are disturbances of the terrestrial magnetic field. At such times ordinary radio reception is more troubled by static. But a U. S. Bureau of Standards scientist has found evidence that ultra-short-wave reception is better in the daytime when sunspots are rampant (TIME...
...full of mercury that when the arc vaporizes the mercury, the pressure rises as high as 300 atmospheres. At the core of the mercury the temperature is 14,000° F., on the inside wall of the tube 1,800°. The lamp is served by a water cooler in which the water must be hurried along in its jacket to prevent the formation of steam bubbles. The heat given off is negligible, since the light of mercury vapor slides off the visible spectrum at the opposite side from the red end where heat waves predominate. The lamp, however, sheds...
...have been so engrossed in academic pursuits that they failed to see the world tumbling down about them. Woodrow Wilson vetoed the Volstead Act, and John Grier Hibben led the movement for Repeal in New Jersey. But science tells us the climate is changing, and so it might be cooler now in Palmer Stadium than it was ten or twenty years ago, with a resultant rise in the consumption of alchohol. Or perhaps they believed, as this paper does, that drinking in a stadium, where neighboring eyes should be on the pigskin, not the bottle, is less objectionable than...
