...South open championship two youngsters fought it out on the third and final day: Dutch Harrison, Mississippi open champion after four years of tournament play, and Henry Clay Poe, 22, one-time Duke University golfer who had just turned pro. At the end of the outward nine holes Youngster Poe led Harrison, 37 to 39. Square at the 15th, Harrison was one stroke behind at the 16th. But the pressure was too much for Youngster Poe. On the par four 18th he hooked his drive and came off with a five. Harrison shot a birdie three, winning $250 first money...
...Outward-bound to Rotterdam with a treacherous cargo of scrap-iron last week, the 5,815-ton Greek freighter Tzenny Chandris had barely cleared the port of Morehead City, N. C. when in the lash of a whining nor'easter she sprang a leak. After a three-day battle against heavy seas, the boat was in bad shape off Cape Hatteras. her frightened crew of 28 begged Captain George Coufopandelis to flash an S. O. S. to one of the several vessels which passed by. But he ordered them back to the failing pumps, confident the old freighter, bought...

...means of a radio-frequency oscillator a rapidly alternating potential of 50,000 volts is maintained across the tank. Under this influence the deuterons in the centre start to move outward. The effect of the big magnet is to pull them in circles. Just as they complete a half-circle the voltage is reversed, so that they get a kick of 50,000 volts to boost them around the other side of the circle at higher speed. After another half-circle the reversed voltage hits them again, and so on. The deuterons go spiraling outward, faster and faster, toward...
Astronomers have not decided what causes stars to explode. Something seems to go wrong with the delicate mechanism that keeps the outward force of radiation pressure balanced against the inward force of gravity. Then the star throws off rapidly expanding shells of hot gas, increases greatly in brightness. Ordinary novae attain a maximum brightness about 25,000 times that of the sun. Therefore, since the difference between actual brightness and apparent brightness depends on distance, novae have provided important clues to the distances of the nebulae in which they occur. About 130 novae have been recorded-most of them found...
