KANSAS CITY, Nov. 23.-Prof
Frank E. Hoecker's homemade ra-
dium finder located a needle of ra-
dium-in the fifth teaspoonful of
the 45th cupfui of the goth bucket
full of ashes.
Then Prof. Hoecker and General
Hospital physician went through 80
more bucketsful to recover eight
more needles, worth s1,44O alto
gether.
The needles, wrapped in adhesive
tape, had been thrown away acci-
dentally by a maid. When she came
back to work the next day she found
the hospital in complete dither.
She told the doctor what she had
done. He Immediately ordered
nothing be taken out of the incin-
erator and called Prof Hoecker at
Kansas City University.
Prof Hoecker set up his instru-
ment and peered at the incinerator,
chock-full with 900 pounds of ashes.
There's radium in that incin-
orator." he said.
The doctor whooped with JOY and
seized a hose. He cooled off the
ashes and took out a bucketful. He
and Prof. Hoecker searched for four
hours before they found the last bit
OF radlum, timer than a phonograph
needle.
The radium finder consists of
microscope focused on an air cham
Der containing few minute particles
OF quartz. The gamma" rays of
the radium make the quartz jump
around. The closer they are to ra-
dlum, the more they jump.
