Prof. O. Cutler Shepard and Dr. Edward P. French have been awarded a patent for a process Kitting rid of an invisible oxide ' film on solid metal surfaces which blocks wetting action. The oxide is removed by heat ing the metal in a vacuum where, in the absence of oxygen, the metal's carbon "migrates" to the surface, reacting with the oxide to produce carbon mon oxide gas. When the gas is pump ed off, the metal surface is left clean.

Improvement Needed in TV To Hold Interest of Danes Br HENRY CRIS United Press Correspondent Copenhagen (U.R) As in oth er parts of Europe, television is still enough of a novelty in Den mark to keep many families watching the few hours of eve evidence that something besides novelty will be necessary to hold this interest in this latest enter tainment medium. For example. Hans Malm stroem and family, living in a pretty Copenhagen suburb, would seem to be fairly typical of Danish, or European, families with rather recent television con nections. I know about the Malmstroems because I spent an evening with them. Malmstroem, a local film company executive, took me home when I suggested I would like to see a Danish TV family and what was on the TV screen. The Malmstroems have given their new 21-inch TV set a place of honor in their "old world" liv ing room. Because the big set takes up a lot of room, Malm stroem cut a hole in the wall to the adjoining glass-enclosed con servatory and pushed the big console into it. Consequently, the set is flush with the living room wall and, as Mrs. Malmstroem says, does not steal space from anybody. To watch, the parents can sit in their armchairs.

March 13. 1957; entered at Louisiana State by Senator Wayne Morse first and second and m displayed in Washington (International Soundphoto) on the carpet, side-by-side. The test pattern 'came on be fore 8 p.m. and the Danish news was on at 8 sharp. It was a sort of newsreel showing what was happening around Copenhagen and in Denmark. This was followed by a filmed excursion around Copenhagen harbor showing the wharves, piers and landings, ships coming in and going out, loading and un loading, and of course, sea gulls. The harbor-master appeared in one long sequence to explain the workings of the harbor and to quote statistics. Longshoremen were shown working, eating lunch, wiping their brows. The harbor film had been on for a half hour when I noticed that mother had become restless. The two girls were pinching each other, and gig gling. "Stop all that," said father. "Our visitor is watching tele vision. This was the signal for the visitor to say he had had enough and that he would not care to impose on the Malmstroems much longer. Let's go into town for dinner, suggested mother, and father concurred. On this particular evening television had failed to hold its fare. Technically, television in Den mark seems to be about as good as anywhere else. There are three transmitters in Copen hagen, Aarhus on Jutland and Odensee which cover 70 per cent of Denmark's households. A fourth will be ready in April to take in the south of Jutland. No Immediate Change The main Copenhagen trans mitter has 10 kilowatts which is more than adequate, with a mast rising 703 feet above sea level on a 200-foot-high hill. The televi sion studios are located in Radio huset, or Radio House, a beauti ful ultra-modern building in the heart of Copenhagen, where a new wing has just been com pleted to provide more TV space. State-owned and controlled, the television branch of Radio House has neither the financial means ,nor the necessary show manship to provide any large scale improvement of the pro gramming. Olaf Kjelstrup, dep uty director of the television branch, refused to believe that anybody would want more than 12 hours of TV per week; two hours each weekday evening. He has no intention, he said, of in creasing the present program time for at least three years. Copenhagen today carries an occasional TV play done either "live" in one tiny studio or re corded on 66 mm film in the new adjoining wing; a lot of news- reels and cultural films; a "cav- Limited Time Only Time tested and proven in coldest states.

Robert Nelson, University of Illinois forestry expert, said the best timber "should be allowed to grow as long as possible." Nelson said it "costs very lit tle more to grow and harvest a high-quality tree than it does to grow a low-quality one." Nelson said the difference in price for the better timber "more than makes up for the difference in effort." Nelson pointed out that prices of white oak saw logs, for in stance, ranged from S18 to S100 per thousand board feet in July, 1956. That's a big range for the same kind of tree," Nelson said. "Quality must have been the de termining factor." alcade" of 1,000-foot clips from new Danish films; occasional TV film series such as "Mount of Monte Cristo." rented from the Commercial IVT of Britain, and "Inspector Fabian of Scotland Yard," rented from the British Broadcasting Company. The last two are experiments. "Our public," Kjelstrup said, with a sigh, "are the ordinary people. Danish intellectuals don't think much of television, you know. They think it's too common. Maybe it's just as well." The "ordinary people" pay as much as 2,000 kronen (S300) for a TV set and 50 kronen (S8) per year for the license that entitles them to have televison.

Washington, Briefs in U.S. Portland The states of Ore gon and Washington Feb. 14 filed amicus curiae briefs with the U.S. Supreme Court, support ting the petition of the National Hells Canyon association for a high Court review of the Hells Canyon case. The briefs were submitted by Attorney General John J. O'Connell of Washington, at the request of Governor Albert Ro sellini, and by Attorney General Robert Y. Thornton of Oregon at the request of Governor Rob ert Holmes. This action is a significant re versal of the positions of both states under the administra tions of Arthur Langlie and the late Paul Patterson. In a statement announcing the filing of the Washington State brief, Governor Rosellini commented: "Because the former adminis tration intervened actively in Candy Making Course Open Only to Adults Chicago (U.R) A class that would catch the eye of every youngster is being offered this semester by the Illinois Institute of Technology.
