his sensational comeback by defeat

of 500 to 2S3 in the final match OF

Hoppe came from behind at u

Schaefer led him by more than 100
points. At the close he put together
massie runs of lSS, and an unfinished
los that marked his return as the
reigning monarch of earoms.
Hopes winning average WAS
II 212 and his other high runs III

90 7-12 with runs OF so, IS and As.

Cement
a Quality
Product

Last year thirty million
tons of raw materials were
fed into the portland ce-
ment mills of this country,
and the finished product
came out in approximately
400 million sacks. To hxn-
die all this material through
the long process Of pulver-
izing, burning, and pulver-
izing again, with such care
that a handful taken at ran
dom from any sack would
meet the exacting specihca-
tons Of leading engineering
societies and the Govern
ment-that was the manu-
facturers' task.
Materials must be handled in great
quantities. in a cement plant, other.
wise the cost Cess now per pound
than that Of any comparable man
ufactured product) would be pro-
hibitive. The product must be uni
form and Of high quality. for the
permanence of great structures,
and even life itself, depends on it.
This great task is simpl6ed by
fifty years Of study and expert
mentation in quality control But
it still calls for constant routine
testing by highly skilled artisans
and chemists.
Take the cement plant chemist,
for instance. Workmen guided by
his Instructions proportion the
various raw materials a ton or
more at time. The tests which
he makes to determine these pro-
portions must be SO precise that
the glass enclosed balance used
for weighing is accurate to the
nearest ten thousandth Of a gram.
There are diagrams tothe pound.
Such a balance willquick1y detect
the difference in weight Of a piece
ofpaper before and after you have
j. written your name on it.
Few industrial products requirs
asgreat care in their manufacture
as portland cement and few get it
SO uniformly.
The guiding hand Of the chemist
and his assistants is seen and felt
at every point in the process Of
manufacture-in the quarry or
pit where the raw materials are
obtained-inth the grinding depart
ment where the raw materials are
proportioned, mixed and ground

dictates is necessary to insure uni
