...choking fumes billowed into their compartments, they tried to escape, only to be forced back by the deadly smoke and heat in the passageways. Lieut. Commander Marvin Reynolds opened his porthole and managed to alert some hands on the top deck; they handed down a hose and an oxygen mask. Then Reynolds spent three hours spraying water around his oven-hot compartment. Commander Richard M. Bellinger, a 205-lb. jet pilot who was awarded the Silver Star last month, ripped out an air conditioner, wriggled naked through the tiny opening to a burning catwalk and escape. Others were...
Flag-Draped Coffins. Again and again, volunteers donned oxygen equipment to go below into the stupefying heat in search of trapped shipmates. Some had to don scuba gear and swim through inky water that rose over their heads in the darkened passageways. They hauled to safety many men who were horribly injured, unconscious or so broken by shock that they could not comprehend where they were. Not until after 3 p.m., more than seven hours after the flares first began their still unexplained sputtering, was the last small smoldering fire extinguished...
...through a patient can spell out a fuzzy picture of all they encounter. Operations can now be carried out in an environment that is virtually germfree. The new device may be as comparatively simple as a heart cart that contains everything from a cardiac pacemaker to a supply of oxygen, and can, in effect, rush the entire equipment of a hospital emergency room directly to a heart patient's bedside. Or it may be as vastly complex as the proton gun currently being used by Harvard Neurosurgeons Raymond Kjellberg and William Sweet...
...smoke control. I have known gasoline smog in Southern California, and pulp mill smog in the north. I have endured wood "smog" in mill towns and near forest fires. Somehow, in spite of the "blue haze," the mountain air seems pure, refreshing and invigorating. The action of trees producing oxygen from carbon dioxide and water should outweigh any "arboreal pollution." All pollution should...
...successfully demonstrated it for the first time this June. Subsequent experiments uncovered a few problems, though none seem impossible of solving in the construction of a full-scale sub. Electric current passing through the water between the electrodes produces some electrolysis; molecules of water break down into hydrogen and oxygen, which rises to the surface in the form of gas bubbles that could signal the sub's presence below. Swimmers who guided the sub felt a tingling but harmless sensation caused by the electric current. "It is almost exhilarating," explains...
