Rapid Antedate Of
Weapons of War Is
Seen By Professor
Berkeley, Cal. (U.R) A re
cently released captain of the
Naval Reserve, who has return
ed to his science laboratory,
says that military strategists
cannot map the security ol the
nation for more than five years
in advance.
The scientist. Dr. Leonard B.
Loeb, professor of physics on
the Berkeley campus of Uni
versity of California who was
assigned to Naval scientific re
search during hostilities, forsees
possible new inventions which
will antedate all present wea
pons. Professor Loeb, writing in a
Naval ordnance laboratory pub
lication, says that the five-year
estimate may be too long, but
"it certainly is not too short."
"It is possible that a new fun
damental discovery .might lead
to devices materially altering
strategy and tactics, which
reach fruition in less than five
years," Professor Loeb stated.
"For example, devices called
radar and derived from the de
velopment of the powerful high
frequency oscillators, needed in
the studies of nuclear reactions
were initiated by the atom
smashers in the early 1930's," he
explained.
"It is possible, that other de
vices might mature more
quickly," he warned.

France Appeals To ,
Americans to Hike'
Penicillin Quotas
Paris (U.R) F ranee has ap
pealed to America to increase
its penicillin allotment to 50
billion units of penicillin a
month according to Health Min
istry official.
"This is the absolute mini
mum, he said. "Actually we
need between 100 and 150 bil
lion units."
France currently receives an
average of nine billion units
monthly from America, and was
promised 30 billion for Janu
ary. The aistriDution oi me
drug is strictly controlled in 29
centers in Paris and 109 in the
provinces. Only the severest
cases are treated. So valuable is
penicillin here that its black
market price is 30,000 francs,
or $240 an ampoule.
Since liberation France has
produced only five million
units. According to tne neaun
Ministry, factory owners here
are reluctant to Invest in the
necessary machinery for fear
that new discoveries in making
penicillin will render their out
lay fruitless.

(Bj Mrs. E. E. Gore)
With a meticulously selected
group of stars and soloists from
their large company of ballet
dancers, Alicia Markova and
Anton Dolin, two of the greatest
exponents of classic ballet on
the boards today, brought to
Medford last night under the
management of Civic Concert
Service, Inc., an unprecedented
extravaganza of classic dancing
art.
Classic and romantic gems
from famous ballets were pre
sented, featuring these two great
artists and Ana Ricardo and Al
bia Kavan. The larger organiza
tion has been touring the coun
try appearing in the great cen
ters of musical and artistic cul
ture, with, elaborate scenery,
stage sets and symphony orches
tra, but this smaller group,
though preserving the highest
tradition of ballet dancing, Is
adapted to successful presenta
tion in small cities where large
auditoriums and elaborate stag
ing are Impracticable.
Art Impresses
Though there were plenty of
patrons In the audience that
filled the auditorium who under
stood in a non-professional way
the varied beauty and intricacies
of the adagio, arabesque, deml
plie, port de bras, batterie,
pointes and the mechanical pat
tern of the ballet, people in
general were less concerned with
the exquisite details of perfect
technique than they were in line.
color and beauty of the dance as
seen In front of a simple back
drop with artistic and adequate
lighting effects.
Dancing as a medium of emo
tional self-expression is a very
ancient art, used alike by peas
ants and kings, but the perfec
tion of detail demanded by
classic ballet dates back a hun
dred years or more and is not to
be attained except by deep
study, constant practice and the
promotion of an ideal through
Imagination and the blending of
knowledge of the related arts
painting, drama and music.
In Three Parts
The program last night was In
three parts, the first of which
was inspired by the magical
beauty of the music of Chopin
and contained seven numbers.
These were Illuminated for the
spectator by the fact that most
of the melodies were familiar
and long cherished classics, thus
the eye was free to see and the
mind was focused on the tech
nique which produced interpre
tation In bodily grace and move
ment.
The second group was a suite
of romantic dances which In
cluded "Vestris Solo," a vehicle
for the strength, power and artis
try of Anton Dolln and the "Pas
de Quatre" by Alicia Markova.
Jean Engel, Albia Kavan "and
Ana Ricardo. Inspired by four
great dancers of the nineteenth
century and possessing, in addi
tion to all the requirements of
ballet, an amusing anecdote of
historic significance, this num
ber, and also "The Polka,"
featuring in addition Jack Gans
wer, were favorites with the
audience.
The third group was famous
dances from 'The Nutcracker
Suite" by Tschaikowsky. To the
ensemble were added Fay Rachel
and Jack Cooper. Each number
was received with mounting en
thusiasm, climaxed in the haunt
ing rhythm of the "Waltz of the
Flowers," given in ultra-classic
form by the soloist and ensemble.
The interpretive work of the
orchestra was much appreciated
and was characterized by de
lightful two-piano excerpts.
Next concert of this series Is
