In its wartime application, the snooperscope sends out in visible infrared rays which are reflected back into a tube. The rays pass into an elec tronic converter which in turn shoots electrons against a phosphorescent screen, re vealing the image of the ene my troops and equipment. Ultraviolet Light The modification allows scientists to use ultraviolet light, also invisible to the hu man eye. to view living hu man tissues, chemicals and in dustrial materials in ways it is otherwise impossible for them to see. Although ultraviolet is not new to research, the device which has been named "Ul- trascope" is believed to be the first providing direct vis ible focusing in the use of such rays. r Developed at the Radio corporation o f America's electron tube division, Lan caster, Pa., the UltrascoDe has been tested by several outside researchers, includ nig Dr. George Z. Williams of the National Institutes of Health clinical center near here. Dr. Williams told Science the device could have innu merable applications in re search in medicine, chemis try, physics, biology and in dustry. See Human Cells In the medical field, he said, the Ultrascope allows us to see, among other things, individual chemicals and structures in human cells and blood and protein changes caused by virus infections. For viewing these same inings, Dr. Williams now has a $15,000 television set-up containing more than 100 electron tubes and housed in a special laboratory with cool ing equipment. The Ultra scope has a single tube, is kept in a four-cubic-inch box and costs about $1,500. The device, according to Dr. Williams, provides an im age superior to that of the complex television. While the television picture is made of a series of lines, the picture in Ultrascope is more like mat seen m the movies. Cob Scouts Visit Mail Tribune Plant Members of Cub Scout Pack 41. Den 3.
