Without Relish. In Denver, police impounded Lorentz Haugseth's car when they found that its inspection sticker was the label from a can of pork and beans...
Steve Klass and James Hull play the back room politicians superbly, and Pare Lorentz and David Seil, as Senators Lyons and Jones, show why the South is more than down...
...brother from out west was played by Hank Holmes, his wife by Fred Mueller. Hank was both convincing and delightful, while Fred provided a marvelous caricature of a loud, if not rip-roaring, midwestern wife. Pare Lorentz capably handled a none too sparkling part as Ivy's poor lover Miguelo. The same was true of John Stimpson as Miguelo's friend, Manuel. The third of the Spanish trio, Mona, was given a sultry, slippery, outrageously funny rendition by Don Rabuzzi...
Relativity in Action. The teeth are about an inch apart along the undulator, and this seems coarse for an apparatus that yields such tiny waves. But the undulator is "shrunk" by one of the strange effects connected with Einstein's relativity. According to "the Lorentz contraction," a stationary object shrinks when it is observed from a moving object. The faster the motion, the more the shrinkage...
Visible Radio. Dr. Motz can make them even smaller by increasing the speed of the electrons and therefore increasing the Lorentz contraction. Once he hitched his undulator to a large linear accelerator that sent out electrons at 100 million electron volts. From the business end came a beam of blue light. He had actually generated "radio waves" that were short enough to qualify as visible light. This stunt proved that the stubborn gap in the spectrum has been closed, but it is hardly practical. There are better ways of generating the waves of light and heat...
