Thermometer Aids Aircraft Flights Chicago W Armour Research Foundation has an nounced development of a thermometer device that can helD aircraft increase their ranges and save fuel. Developed for. the Air Force's Air Research and De velopment Command, the thermometer can assist air craft in locating jet air streams and the ' position ; of maximum velocity in these streams by giving immediate readings on temperature changes. The device, the f oundaton said, is a "vortex thermome ter", which was found to be effective at simulated alti tudes up to 40,000 feet and speeds up to Mach 1.1. Jack C. Hedge, associate engineer, said the device can give pilots direct true free and temperature readings ac curate to plus or minus one degree Fahrenheit while trav eling at high speeds. Other methods of locating et streams by temperature changes are indirect, Hedge said, because they involve correcting temperature read ings to .compensate for the aerodynamic heating effect produced by high speeds. The Armour device uses a uniflow type vortex tube cylindrical pipe creates a whirlpool or vortex when the air enters the tube at an angle in the opening. A cold region is created in the center of the tube, compensating for the high speed heat, Hedge explained. Iron Lung for Rats Available Urbana, 111. .

He also has built a lie de tector and a sound-proof room but regards his "light-man gier" with special pride. This an automatic device that changes the density and angle of light going to human test subjects.

Venturi Picked To Take Links Meet at Vegas Los Angeles (IP! Young Ken Venturi, currently the hottest golfer on the prof es sional golfing circuit, was a solid favorite today to win the $40,000 Tournament of "Champions at Las Vegas, Nev., April 24-27. Latest odds on the sensa tional San Francisco pro were quoted as 5-1 Tuesday by Wil bur Clark, chairman of the committee for the tourna ment to be held over the Des ert Inn course.

The Mas ters' winner was the last to make the field.
