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. But the evi
dence from the bottles show-

Believe
ed you can have coid volcanic
eruptions.
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.

PoSD Shows Democratic Legislature
WilD Get Along With GOP (Governor
Editor's note: This Is the last
of four dispatches analyzing prob
lems of the 1959 Oregon Legislature
By DICK HUMPHREY
Salem -(UP &-Can the Demo
cratic controlled 50th Oregon
Legislature get along with
Republican Gov. 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.

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. He said
he'd want a clear indication
