Newspaper Page TextA MAIL TRIBUNE, MedforJ, Oregon, Wednesday, January 28, 1959 Moon's Innumerable Craters Blow Holes, ists By DELOS SMITH UPI Science Editor New York -4UPD Two scien tists reproduced theoretical moon conditions inside labor- bottles and came up with evidence that the moon's Innumerable craters are blow-holes. What was once blown through the holes was gas trapped Delos Smith beneath the moon's surface, the scientists reasoned, thus giving indirect support to the Russian scientist who recent ly reported seeing what he took to be a volcanic eruption on the moon Many scientists thought the Russian had made a mistake because volcanic eruptions we know on earth require ex tremely high temperatures beneath the surface, and the scientific evidence that the moon is a cold moon without any heat of its own, is all but overwhelming.

A. G. Gaydon and R. C. M. Learner supposed that the moon's surface is composed largely of a fine, powdery dust. There is enough evi dence that that is so for some scientists to believe the earth rockets which eventually reach it, will disappear with out a trace into a deep outer layer of dust. They supposed further that large quantities of gas were trapped under pressure be neath this outer layer. Then the scientists turned to their bottles which were partly fill ed with magnesium carbon ate, a very light powder. Suction was applied to draw out the air trapped in the powder. Blow holes ap peared on the surface. These were photographed and when the pictures were compared to pictures of the moon's cra ters, the resemblance was so close it was hard to tell one set of pictures from the other. Mad Own Craters Gaydon and Learner repeat ed these experiments in bot tles partly filled with such dry powders as sand, , salt, and magnesium oxide, any or all of which could exist on the moon. They introduced air into the bottles through tiny holes in the bottoms, so there was a continuous up ward flow of air through the powder when the suction was on. By releasing the suction suddenly, they caused blown up hillocks of powder to col lapse in the middle, reproduc ing even more realistic moon craters on the surface. While the suction was on, a foun tain of powder rose from the blow-hole; when it was re leased, the suspended par ticles fell, back, forming the steep inner slopes and the buttressed outer slopes that are typical of the moon's cra ters. If their theory is true, it is to be assumed that the gas trapped inside the moon as it cooled from the state of a molten ball, has just about all escaped. The moon's cra ters were formed untold eons ago. But the possibility re mains that small amounts still are seeping to the sur face, which would account for the Russian's observations. and flndovidualls Who Willi EDo The Job Kight, Save You Time and Money!

Mark Hat field? A UPI poll showed today that the answer is a resound ing "yes." However, Rep. Keith Skel ton (D.-Eugene) would phrase the question a little differ ently: "The question is wheth er Hatfield can work in har mony with the Democratic Legislature." Sen. Monroe Sweetland (D. Milwaukie) thought that, like President Eisenhower, Hat field "might find the Demo cratic majority more favor able to some of his more con structive ideas than the mi nority party will be." Drivers Reminded Of Using Lights Medford drivers are re minded by the city police de partment about the need to "light-up" for other drivers. Chief of Police Charles P. Champlin explained that it has been noted that some drivers still use pah-king lights for driving in fog during early morning or late after noon. This, he said, is a violation of law and a definite hazard to traffic since parking lights do not provide enough illumi nation to warn other traffic of a car's presence. Fog may be a hazard in many parts of the state for some weeks yet and drivers should remember that when visibility is reduced, head lights on low beam offer the best driving help, it was ex plained. Drivers should be especial ly alert for pedestrians or bicycle riders during foggy weather, the chief said. And he warned pedestrians to check twice before stepping into traffic when visibility is reduced. When no sidewalks are available, pedestrians should walk on the shoulder facing oncoming traffic. This advice becomes doubly important during conditions of fog or rain. Sick Room Supplies Rentals Sales Wheel chairs, crutches, canes, health supports. Save money.

Jackson SP 2-2990 FEB Extension 26 for Information Sen Ben Musa (D.-The Dal les) put it bluntly: "If they can't they should have their heads examined. The Legis lature is no place for a breed ing ground of partisan politi cal fortunes." Good Program Rep. Bill Bradley (D.-Gresh-am) said "The Democratic program will be a good pro gram for the state. Since the Legislature is Democratically controlled it would seem to me that the responsibility of harmony lies with Gov. Hat field. I believe Gov. Hatfield will recognize this responsi bility." If the legislative and ex ecutive can get along, another question is how long the 1959 legislative session will last. The 1957 session lasted a rec ord 128 days. Thsee or four legislators guessed at 100 days this time and most of them were hope ful of cutting down on the 1957 session time. However, there were some pessimists. Rep. Joe Rogers (R.-Inde-pendence) thought then ew Legislature might set a new record of 131 days. Rep. Katherine Musa (D. The Dalles) said she was hope ful the session could be wound up quicker than last time but added "if they choose up sides and play partisan politics like they did last time, we may not get through - by Christ mas." Oregon lawmakers were generally in agreement that economies could be affected by a reorganization of state government and that the gov ernor probably should head such an effort or at least take a major role in it. Rep. Clarence Barton (D. Coquille) pointed out that the governor "is a student of po litical science and as such should recognize the fields that need attention." Chapman Comments Rep. R. F. Chapman (D. Coos Bay) thought all govern ment departments should be reorganized, but had no com ment on who should head such an effort. Skelton said he was not sure because Hatfield's ad ministrative aide, Warne Nunn, had told him that Hat field intends to scrap many recommendations of the In terim Committee on Govern ment Reorganization.
