'Sky Writing' By Satellites Forecast New York - (Science Serv ice) - "Skywriting" by satel lites as far from earth as the moon or farther, using small batches of the element lith ium, was forecast by five Rus sian scientists. They suggested a method for substantially increasing the brightness of space rock ets by ejecting a cloud of gas that will glow like an artifi cial comet. The development of a lithium artificial comet will solve the problem of op tical observations of man made satellites within the so lar system, they predict. A cloud of vaporized sodi um has already been used by the Russians to aid in track ing the lunar rocket launched1 on Sept. 12, 1959. Since sodi um is not an "ideal substance" for making artificial comets, they recommend lithium. One reason is that 40 limes as much sodium is needed as when lithium is used. The suggestion for using ar tificial lithium comets was re ported in the current Soviet Astronomy, published here by the American Institute of Physics, in a translation of a paper by I. S. Shklovskli, V. F. Esipov, V. G. Kurt, V. I. Moroz and P. V. Shcheglov of the P. K. Shtcrnberg State Astronomical Institute.

The small inslrumenl w;.s invented for use in hospital operating rooms by Dr. Wil liam F. Veling, a surgeon here. It is suggested for den tal use by the medical equip ment department of Cheme tron Corporation's National Cylinder Gas Division. The six - ounce monitor translates heart activity into audible "beeps."
