College Buys Wearability Test Machine Corvallis - A "wearability" testing machine that subjects items of clothing and fabrics to a lifetime of wear in a few hours has been purchased by the Oregon State college school of home economics for research and teaching pur poses. , It is one of only about 20 such instruments in colleges across the country. Called an "accelorotor," the machine has been used for a study on the comparison "wear and tear" of upholstery fabrics and currently is being used for research on blankets made from wool and acrylic fibers. . Next year, the department of clothing, textiles and re lated arts is, planning a study of the wearability of cottons. Research findings will be pub lished as projects are com pleted. Research workers include Miss Barbara Buckwalter, Dr. Florence Petzel, and Miss Phyllis Grant. Small samples, rather than entire garments and fabrics, are used in the tests. A high speed propeller blade inside the machine tosses the sam ples being tested against the machine sides, . which have abrasive surfaces much like very fine sandpaper. This produces wear and rubbing which would be com parable to the wear and fric tion found in clothes at the elbows, knees, back of the neck, or in the case of sheets and blankets, all-over wear. The machine is equipped to hold water so that "washa bility" properites of the fab rics also may be tested.
