BIG PINES LUMBER CO. JOHHS-Mmvuit SINCE 1908 Sixth and Fir Phone 2-6251 Science at Work New York (U.PJ The wrist- watch two-way radio is just around the corner, maybe. So believes I. J. Kaar, a Gen eral Electric company engineer, who reports that a new "era of germanium" a silver-like metal, is opening the way for develop ment "of tiny electronic compon ents known as transitors. It all means, he said, that comic strip detectives won't have a monopoly on the minia ture sets. They'll be used by all sorts of people firemen,, the military, newspaper reporters, and probably for the ordinary civilian if he wants one. . Germanium Is Key The new progress in the de velopment of the tiny radio sending and receiving sets is linked to the use of germanium. Kaar predicted that transitors, tiny pellets of germanium which can be made smaller than the head of a match, will be used in stead of vacuum tubes. That will mean an enormous cut down on the size of radio sets. Another necessary . product, the diode, also can be made from german ium according to Kaar. In fact, both transitors and diodes are smaller, more effi cient, cheaper to operate, longer lasting, and potentially less ex pensive than vacuum tubes, ac cording to Kaar. Metal Plays Part Kaar said: "It is difficult to predict all the effect germanium may have, to foresee the magnitude of growth it portends, or to con jure up all of the new products and techniques that may emerge and their effects on marketing and industry." He said the "electronic brains", or magic "brains" which at present use thousands Bowling WOMEN'S LEAGUE STANDINGS Won Lost Oregon Finance Medford Feed Y Club 24 23 20 Green Lantern 20 Mann's Dept.

It is in tended to save the country from collapsing in any futur "criti cal moment." - The -defense minister, Oscar Traynor, opened -the campaign officially in an address over the national radio network. . Traynor stressed that unless the defense . forces had "the necessary number of men they could not . have an effective framework "and ran the risk of breaking down at the critical moment. . ' Cinema, press, radio and other means will be brought into the campaign, which . aims primar ily at enlisting 4,500 men, thus bringing the strength of ' the armed forces up to the approved peacetime level of 12,500.

' (International) Japan's Popular Stripper Acts Give Way to Musicals Tokyo U.R) Japan's most popular strip teasers have made their final bow as the Nissho troupe The management slyly admit ted, however, that it may queeze in nude acts" again if the new music programs lost money. Thousands of American GIs and Japanese office workers hope the proposed "music hall" will always need financial boosting. When the Nissho manager an nounced closing of burlesque, GIs sometimes 80 per cent of the former burlesque audience pleaded for the show to go on forever. They said it was a fine place to kill time in the afternoon. The act comprised 23 girls, headed by queenly Kyoko Azu ma, and was considered a vast improvement on strip techniques in the United States. Touch of Opera The girls stripped fast and made sure everybody had a good look before they went back into the wings. Between acts they performed opera, a cut-down final act of Carmen. Every day nearly 1,500 cus tomers kept the tills well-filled. The monthly gross .take was about 4,000,000 yen (more than $11,000). An edict from quarters high in management level said burlesque must go no. matter how much money it makes. The Nissho closed down January 31. The new "music hall" will open about March 20. The man agement hopes the show will make money but it ventures no predictions. The new program will combine musical revue acts and vaudeville. Few Patrons Before Before August, 1949, when strippers began performing, the management produced a similar variety program. It drew only about 30 or 40 customers a per formance. The dismissed girls have made their own plans for the future. Some will go to local burlesque houses still open. Others plan to form their own troupe and travel to southeast Asia. The girlj reported that their GI customers were more respon sive than Japanese patrons. They clapped more loudly and some times whistled. One girl always invited a cus tomer to come onstage to help with her act. She said GIs were eager to walk up to the platform but that Japanese men sat still, preferring to watch.

Device Quickly Finds Contents of Purse Toledo, O. 4U.R) A Toledo woman has solved a troublesome problem by inventing a purse that enables the owner to locate its contents within seconds. Features of the recently pat ented handbag include dozens of compartments and a window which opens to reveal the con tents. A small external pocket serves as a holder for compact, mirror and comb.

(U.R) A . motorist called police to report he had to drive around a mud splattered animal standing in the road which was "awful mean looking, had . a 'pointed nose, a small head, waddled like a duck, had light green eyes and was about the size of a large dog."

The instant you nudge Buick's Fireball 8 Engine into action a whole string of things starts to happen. Eight sparks begin to crackle in well-timed sequence. Eight pistons start gliding up and down with rhythmic precision. Eight pairs of valves dance open and closed to let fuel charges in, exhaust gases out of cylinder after cylinder. All right, you say, what's so complex about that? Can't anyone build an engine that does this to perfection? Well, we'd better add, these things happen at the rate of more than 10,000 times per mile dM off tew S and that's 100 times per second at 35 miles an hour! So it's important to know that Buick uses a deep-breathing valve-in-head design that shoots a fuel charge in cleans exhaust gases out in a hurry. It's important to know that all the power released by the fuel concentrates its driving force right on the head of each Buick piston. (Everyone who has recently built "new" high compression engines copied this "Buick first.") But most important of all Buick adds one more twist which others still haven't copied. Every charge of fuel rushing into d Buick erigine becomes a twisting, swirling, high compressed ball that flashes with sudden, con suming completeness the instant the spark sets it afire, . And to add this all up: clean, complete com bustion 10,000 times per mile is the secret of getting more power more miles from each gallon of gasoline. So we're not simply using picture words when we tell you that Buick and only Buick has a Fireball Engine or that you're off in a swirl of power with one of these high-powered performers under the hood. 1952 has brought a lot of sparkling new improvements which you'll want to see and admire when you come to our showrooms. But the thrill of thrills is still what you and a Buick and a Fireball 8 Engine can do out on the road. When do you want to try a sample?
