...lumber industry. Only strong market is sawdust, used locally as fuel and now skyhigh at $12 a truckload. Another difficulty is the restless defiance which seems to pervade the whole Northwest. When a mob in Baker, Ore. recently ran a Beck organizer out of town with the help of local peace officers, Oregon's Governor Martin expressed public satisfaction. Few weeks ago in a Beck-Bridges dispute over some Seattle warehousemen, "the Tsar of Seattle Labor" threatened to close five warehouses if the Labor Board even held hearings. This week as C.I.O. eased its loading boycott the Labor Board...
Father Malachy's Miracle (adapted by Brian Doherty from Bruce Marshall's novel; produced by Delos Chappell). When devout little Father Malachy (Al Shean), with the help of God (offstage), sent a dance hall whizzing 20 miles through the air, he was not damning dance halls. He was proving to a skeptical Anglican parson (Frank Greene) miracles could still be performed, and he hit on the dance hall only because it was handy.

...August of last year Anderson was more inclined to believe that a new particle really existed than that the Bethe-Heitler theory was at rault. Further help for the theory came from the researches of Caltech's H. Victor Neher at San Antonio, Tex., and Madras, India. Cosmic ray particles are pulled toward the earth's poles by its magnetic field. Particles of high energy resist this pull, and so predominate in the region of the Equator. The latitude difference between Madras (13° N.) and San Antonio (29° N.) furnished valuable data on electrons...
...story was ferreted out by an Index reporter who was once an instructor of English at the University of Pittsburgh. With the help of King's friends, he traced the history of the vitamin in scientific journals. Dr. King's work, well-known and highly regarded among biochemists, was described two years ago in Outposts of Science, an omnibus of science for laymen by Bernard Jaffe (a chemist himself). Jaffe unequivocally credited King and his coworker, William A. Waugh, with first obtaining the pure vitamin: "On April 4, 1932, after seven years of continuous work, King finally isolated...
