Several hundred experimental transfusions have been made with enlisted men volunteering to test it, pumping blood out of one arm and sending it back into the other. Majors Emerson and Ebert themselves submitted to the most crucial tests and in no case did a fever reaction occur. The new apparatus should be extremely valuable in saving the lives of wounded soldiers on the field...

The irony is that the early spring, which produced mud weeks before the usual time, has produced gradual thaws so that the usual spring floods may not occur at all. At least, the Germans cannot count on them...

...Mother," the cloud-shrouded tallest of Rabaul's volcanic peaks, and the lesser "Daughters" on either side, brooded somberly. Australian officials recalled the report which was made by vulcanologists more than three years ago after an inspection of Rabaul's treacherous strata: another eruption was likely to occur at any moment...
Item: the reaction must occur at 150° below zero, the next processing at 150° above. This type of process, which may be successful in a test tube, becomes fantastically difficult in a skyscraper-size plant. Butyl production is still negligible. The U.S. can still use Du Pont's neoprene (production: 49,000 tons yearly) for tubes. But the military long ago grabbed the lion's share of that. This left, as the only tube alternative, Buna S, mixed with the priceless crude rubber from the shrinking stockpile. On this basis the U.S. can afford few tubes...
