...parallels in the world, and none, I think, in the United States. President Eliot has witnessed the development of railways, of steamships, of ironclad, of submarines, of airplanes, of breech-loading guns, of the telegraph, of the telephone, of two-cent postage, of radio, of automobiles, of newspapers, of X-ray, of elevators, of skyscrapers and, last but not least, of golf. And at the end of it all I found him, a day or two ago, an enthusiastic and even exuberant optimist. From his severe and prolonged ordeal he emerges with faith unshaken in God and man. He left...
...substance into the gall-bladder which would make possible the photographing of its outline. Drs. Warren H. Cole and Evarts A. Graham of the Washington University Medical School (St. Louis) have succeeded in finding a substance which can be satisfactorily introduced into the gall-bladder and which permits X-ray photography of the organ later. The chemical name of the substance is calcium tetrabromphenolphthalein. The drug is injected into a vein. Three hours after the injection it begins to appear in the bile which collects in the gallbladder. Strangely enough, better photographs have been obtained from normal gallbladders than from...
...enlargement of his research laboratory in theoretical physics. American physicists as well as others from foreign countries will conduct investigations in the Danish laboratory, which is supported in part by the Danish government. Dr. Bohr will specialize on investigation of the infra-red region of the spectrum and on X-ray spectra...
...Stray X-rays escaping from a laboratory or doctor's office and endangering the health of persons in adjoining rooms will have their teeth pulled by an invention of Maximilian Toch, Manhattan chemist. Metallic lead sheathing has been used in such rooms to keep the rays in, but this is costly and the heavy metal requires special strengthening of building walls. Toch's method is the use of a barium compound in the plaster or paint on the walls of the X-ray room, barium being impervious to the rays...

An X-ray examination, however, showed that his injury was far less severe than had been feared, while Kernan, the other casualty, was reported practically recovered. Aside from that, the team which started on Saturday was practically unscathed...
