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"

MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE THIRTEEN
Launches
Dublin li.R) The hiptrprf
peace-time recruiting campaign
has been launched to strengthen
Ireland's armed forces. 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.

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.

We're willing to wager that not one person
in a hundred knows what really goes on
inside an automobile engine so let's take this
by easy stages.
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?
