Abstract: Abstract of the Disclosure A method and apparatus for generating moving objects for a video game display.  Common apparatus in-cluding a microprocessor with RAM provides vertical motion for all objects and separate horizontal position counting hardware horizontal motion for each object.  The micro-processor operating on a horizontal line pair basis drives a parallel to serial converter which stores one eight bit line portion of the object to be displayed which in turn is connected to a shift register.  When the converted data is read out to the video display by action of the appropriate horizontal postion hardware, it is recirculated to provide a repeat on the next horizontal line of the identical data.          An effective one line moving resolution is obtained by utilizing another shift register for a one line delay by means of switch which is set by a latch driven by the microprocessor.

Abstract: INVENTION:  PROCESS FOR THE ALKYLATION OF HYDROCARBONS  INVENTORS:  R. L. STURTEVANT, A. B. GANCY and B. I. KARSAY      Abstract An improved process for the alkylation of isoparaffins with olefins in the presence of a sulfuric acid catalyst is disclosed.  Improvement in the octane rating of the product alkylate is achieved by periodic fortification of the sulfuric acid catalyst with sulfur trioxide-bearing fortifying agents under conditions wherein the harmful effects caused by contact of the sulfur trioxide with the hydrocarbons in the alkylation zone are minimized.  The acid catalyst is fortified less fre-quently than 15% of the time the catalyst is in contact with the hydrocarbons and the water content of the acid is allowed to vary between fortifications.  The process effects not only essentially 100% utilization of the fortifying agent for water removal but also improves the octane rating of the product alkylate while simultaneously extending the service life of the alkylation catalyst by allowing use of the acid to a higher final organic content.
