Nsw Innovation The shopping center loca tion represents a somewhat new innovation for Safeway. The company once preferred to be "on their own" with neighborhood corner loca tions or downtown business district sites.

Chemical Compounds Get Study at College Corvallis - An intensive study of mysterious chemical compounds that seem to help some microorganisms with stand thousands of times as much atomic radiation as a normal human is under way at Oregon State college. The1 three-year research project, financed by a $24,000 grant from the National Insti tutes of Health, is under the direction of Dr. A. W. Ander son and Dr. Paul R. Elliker, OSC -bacteriologists. In the study, the researchers hope to isolate and identify certain chemical compounds that seem to make it possible for some bacteria to withstand radiation dosages of over 4 million roentgens - about 10, 000 times as much as a nor mal human.. The bacteria the scientists are studying were discovered at the OSC agricultural ex periment station four years ago. Research since that time has shown the bacteria are eniiallv resistant to normally lethal doses of ultra - violet light and x-rays. Since their discovery, OSC scientists have studied ; the bacteria's metabolism the way they chemically use their food and their physical structure. These studies indi cated the bacteria produced chemical compounds in their every - day' living processes that hadn't previously been reported as products of nor mal metabolism in living or- oanicmc This information led the scientists to believe these un usual chemical compounds may be the key to the bac teria's phenomenal radiation resistance. As soon as they are able to isolate and an alyze these compounds, the scientists plan to carry out tncts tn sp if these com pounds can be used to pro vide radiation resistance in higher forms of life.
