Francis Ferdinand Lucas, metallurgist and microscopist of Bell Telephone Laboratories, had good news for the members of the American Institute of Mining and Metallurgical Engineers assembled last week in Manhattan. Said he: "There will shortly be delivered in New York a new metallographic equipment. ... I have recently put it through its paces . . . and I speak with a measure of assurance when I say that we shall see some revolutionary advances in the art of metallography...
Died. Dr. Richard George Gottlob Moldenke, 66, consulting metallurgist to great corporations (Worthington Pump & Machinery Corp., Bethlehem Steel Corp., U. S. Pipe & Foundry Co., et al), onetime secretary & treasurer of the American Foundrymen's Association; after an operation; in Plainfield...
...heavy as water, two-thirds as heavy as aluminum. Re-search into means of producing it for less than $100 per Ib. has been spurred by aviation's need of light, strong metals. If a statement last week by Alfred Schwarz, Manhattan businessman, one-time Green Cananea Co. metallurgist, proves true, a great new metal industry may be launched. His statement: that he can, by a process of his invention, make pure beryllium...
Immediate significance suggested by Metallurgist Schwarz: ''A proper alloy with aluminum, consisting of 50% to 70% beryllium, will make a structural material for airships and airplanes which, because of its lightness and strength, can be used in smaller cross-sections, thus reducing the weight of any given ship by about one-half...
Siemens & Halske's beryllium has been manufactured by a slow electrolytic process. The Schwarz process is a heat treatment. From a ton of beryl ore costing $100, Metallurgist Schwarz says he can obtain 100 Ib. of pure beryllium. The ore is plentiful in New Hampshire. New York, the Carolinas, Colorado, usually being found with feldspar deposits...
