They even have hope that atom lo "rays" from lsotoes or other sources may eventually be em ployed to produce strains of plants resistant to disease, drought and other hazards. But what hits actually been ac complished so far In using the stoi.) in medicine, agriculture and Industry? Hero's the record: Medicine In addition to tracers, aeveral Irotopea have been used In the direct treatment of a few diseases. That Is, the rays from the materi als hsve been employed somewhat like X-ray to attack diseased tis sue or cells. Radioactive Iodine Is being used to treat certain cases ol thyroid cancer and of overactive thyroid. Only a few outright curea have been claimed In the cancer cases, but most patients receiving the treatment are reported to got "real value" from It In terms ol feeling belter and possible prolong ation of life. Approximately 85 per cent of overactive thyroid cases can be controlled by the use of radioactive Iodine, doctors say., Radioactive phosphorus haa proved useful In the treatment of certain cases of leukemia. American researchers are also talking about some Ingenious meth ods developed by the British for bringing radlogold and other Iso topes to bear against cancers. One such technique Involves use of a device thai looks like a youngster's water pistol for "seeding" bladder tumors with pellets of radlogold. Another Involves Inserting a de flated balloon Into the blander and then Inflating It with solution of radioactive sodium and radioac tive bromine. Radioactive cobalt, a relatively Inexpensive aubstltute for radium, has b?en fabricated b"' Ame-lcpn ecienllxtx Into a "wire" that la "threaded" around the contours of deep-seated cancer. Top atomic doctors say "the fas cinating" use of atomic energy In the treatment of cancer la the ef fort by reaearehera at the Atomic Energy Commlsalon'a Brookhaven, N. Y., plant to exploit neutron ray from their atomic furnace aa a weapon against brain tumors. Scientists will aay only that re sults hsve been promising. Agriculture Research with radioactive tracer Isotopes, such aa phosphorus, haa enabled aclentlsla to trace nutri ents through soli. Into roots and thence, through plants. Thus, they've been ale to determine at what stage In Hi growing cycle the plant needs fertiliser mart: lo know where and how feritllier hould be placed to give the lama the maximum benefit: and lo es tablish what kinds of ferttliMra work boat la tlx country's varied Soils. - '- ! While thi- fertilizer research is the only really practical payeff ao far In the agricultural end of the atomic business, scientists are hot on the trail of other leads. For example, there's a good chance Urat atomic radiation, di rected against certain plant seeds, might result In the development of plants having greater yields of produce and Increased resistance lo dlsosse. Industry Radioactive Isotopes are In rath er wide use 1n the metals and related Industries aa a means of detecting flawa In casta and wej. They are being emplojed In the paper, rubber, aluminum and plas tics Industries to provide thickness gauges for products under process. For example, a radioactive Isotope la placed above a sheet of psper being processed through a ma chine, and a Oelger counter Is placed beneath the sheet. If the thickness of the paper varies point to point, the Oelger counter will show It. Radioactive Isotopes are also be ing used to locale leaks In pipes encased In masonry thus aparlng extensive tear-down Jobs. They're also being employed In research designed to produce bet ter lubricants. Improved automo bile tires and other products. And the Navy la even making dirt radioactive In a quest for improved laundry soaps and detergents I wtm T 9 COMPANY Phone 3144 IT-5 'mat- CALIFORNIA 'SUNSHINE'.

Here It Is bovs. The annual whiskerino contest sponsored by the K Club gels under way this Fri day. The rules are very simple. All the boys have to do is to come to school clean shaven this Friday and commence to grow their crop ol whiskers. Then when the dance roils around on Jan. 16, uie boys go to the dance and show off their crop. Aa In the past prizes will be given for the reddest beard, the blondest beard, the longest beard, the darkest beard, and the best effort. Also aa In the past, there will be ) a kangaroo court to take care of i that part of the male population I of the school that does not at least try to grow whiskers. Tickets for the Sweetheart's Ball went on sale today. The dance will ' oe neid Jan. io. The purchase of a ticket allows the purchaser to cast one vote for the sweetheart candidate of his choice. The win ner of the contest will remain un known until intermission time at the dance. Then the winner will be announced and crowned "Sweet heart of KUHS." uSH Rubinstein Wins Repriev WA8H7NOTON (PV Three federal Judges have temporarily aaved Serge Rubinstein, rich Russian born financier, from being aent to Ellis Island on a deportation war rant. But the 45-year-old New Yorker, who served a prison term for draft dodging, may be ordered to sur render before the year ends at mid night. The U. 8. Court of Appeala indi cated It may announce aometlme this afternoon a decision on wheth er to bar the Justice Department from taking Rubinstein Into cus tody. The 4 p.m. Tuesday deadline set by Alty. Oen. McOranery for Rubinstein's surrender to the New York office of the Immigration and Naturalization Service was almost two hours past when the Court of1 Appeala asked the Justice Depart ment to hold up action while It considers the case. The Justice Department prompt ly said It would respect the re quest. A half dozen Immigration inspectors who had started comb ing Washington for Rubinstein were told to call off the hunt.
