...Millikan explained that there was no reason apparent why the universe should ever end, implied that it had never even begun. Somewhere in the depths of space, he believed, helium, oxygen, silicon and iron were being formed from the ultimate constituent of all matter, the electron. "In the hot stars and the sun," he said, "matter is being disintegrated into energy or radiation: in the unimaginably cold expanse of space, radiation or energy is being reintegrated into matter...
Died. Dr. Herbert Steuer, 35, X-ray specialist; by electric shock from his X-ray machine, while making an examination; in Cleveland. Four doctors, including George W. Crile, worked unsuccessfully with ten tanks of oxygen trying to resuscitate...
...spectra of far off nebulae have long been thought by astronomers to be made by a mysterious element which they called nebulium. This idea was exploded by Professor Ira Sprague Bowen, famed physicist colleague of Dr. Millikan. He found the lines are caused by the very familiar elements oxygen and nitrogen. They seemed unfamiliar because, in the rare atmosphere around the stars these elements have room to cut complicated capers, storing up energy for some time, then jumping actively and shooting off rays. In the dense atmosphere of the earth they are always being bumped by, or bumping, other atoms...
...flight, immediately telephoned Dr. William H. Delaney, superintendent of the hospital, suggesting a consultation, which was gratefully accepted. Dr. Alvan L. Barach, assistant physician at the Presbyterian Hospital, New York, was sent up as consultant, arriving in Quebec with his special apparatus and two tanks of compressed oxygen, Monday, April 23.

The pneumonia patient generally suffocates to death. The lungs become congested, he cannot take in enough air to keep alive, he gasps, coughs, turns blue in the face, dies. Dr. Barach's oxygen tent surrounds the patient's head and chest with an atmosphere of 60% oxygen. He no longer fights for air, it is fed to him. This was the tent through which Bennett greeted Lindbergh; in which he lived from the moment...
