...quick to tally in the second period, but Steve Washburn then took up the cause, driving in one on an assist from Art Lee. Hamlen poked in another to make the score 3 to 2 and put the lid on further threats. Key's shot in the final period froze the score...
Prospectors told of a lush almost tropical country where the river never froze even when the temperature sank to 50 below in the surrounding mountains. Great herds of fat deer and caribou, they said, cropped the green pastures. Last week the tales had grown so fantastic that the Vancouver Sun's columnist, Jack Scott, burlesqued the Nahanni as a "bodyless valley where ripe bananas hang from the boughs of pine trees [and] dusky native girls swim about in the deep, warm pools...
...refining process kill the virus? Loring and Schwerdt thought lowering the temperature might keep the virus alive. As part of a long process, they made an extract from the brains and spinal cords of polio-infected cotton rats, froze it. Then, letting it start to thaw, they whirled their material in an ultra-high-speed centrifuge (60,000 revolutions per minute) to separate its protein, and with chemicals refined the protein further. Eventually they isolated a particle less than two-billionths of an inch in diameter. The protein particle proved to be 80 to 95% pure virus; a billionth...
Shaken Oysters. Dr. Victor L. Loosanoff, biologist of the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service, was also concerned with survival. He froze live oysters solid, kept them frozen ten months, thawed them out happy and healthy. But if he shook them while frozen, they thawed out dead. A frozen oyster, said Dr. Loosanoff, is mostly ice. Shaking breaks...
...rest of the winter's first big tourney, the $7,500 North & South Open at swanky Pinehurst last week, was uphill work for Hogan against his old enemy-himself. Ben froze a tabby-cat grin on his face, paid no attention to anyone else's score. He walked fast; a hare-&-hounds trail of cigarets marked his route; he smoked a cigaret half through, dropped it to make a shot, then lit another. If this was a sign of nervousness, his 170 rivals -many of whom had given up tobacco to steady their nerves-didn't think...
