Atomic Energy Exhibit USE OF RADIOISOTOPES In agriculture Is explained by Carolyn Bradford of the American Museum of Atomic Energy. The exhibit is part of the Atomic Energy display which opens in the Student Union today at 1 p.m. The exhibit will be on campus through Thursday. (Continued from fiagr one) isotopes in agriculture, industry, medicine and biology, among others, will be shown as well as a typical tracer experiment and a model of the atom-smashing Van de Graff generator. The production of radioisotopes is demonstrated by making some of the silver atoms in a dime radio active. The radiation is extremely short-lived and is harmless and if a spectator wishes to contribute his dime, the coin will be encased to an hour and a half to complete the circuit. Oregon is the only Pacific coast [ state in which the exhibit will be shown. It is being sponsored by the general extension division of the Oregon state system of higher education, and is brought to Eu gene through the cooperation of the University of Oregon. Other cities in Oregon which have shown or will show this exhibit are Med ford, Corvallis and Portland, in a plastic and aluminum contain er as a souvenir of the exhibit.

The fire razed the den; damage was estimated by the Eugene Fire 'epartment at “several hundred d< ’\ars.” The cigarette bla* ' was first no ticed during the sorority's house dance. The davenport was moved i-' the porch and thoroughly drenched, then moved back into the den. At 5.40 u.m. Saturday, the housemother, Mrs. Kent Roe, awoke and discovered the den was on fire. "Another 10 minutes and the blaze would have spread to the rest of the house," said Assistant Fire Chief Frederick von Appen, who inspected the house. “The girls were lucky that their fire doors were closed; they prevented the blaze from spreading up the Htr.tr well. He emphasized th»t all living or ganizations are required to havo "o-e-hour" doors on ull floor en trai.. from the Htalr wells. These doors are designed to withstand a fire foi .me hour, thus giving occu pants time to escape. Also, he jald that many Univer sity living organizations are vio lating city regulations by using flammable materials In their house dance decorations, "I -checked six houses where house dances were to be held last weekend,” he said. "Three of them were using untreated materials as part of their decorations.” He pointed out that houses have been put on social probation for viola tions of this fire ordinance in the past; also, a city ordinance pro vides for other fines. jjab Gf*pMiu*utiel Information about all job oppor tunity may be obtained at the graduate placement office In Em erald hall.
