WATER HEATERS
FEATURE NEW LINING

In a large Milwaukee manufactur-
ing plant, a giant (some nine feet in
height and with muscles as big as
beer kegs) spends all of his time try
ing to break glass.
Although such an occupation
makes this diversified gentleman
seem not too bright, he really per-
forms a sterling service in behalf of
the commonwealth, according to Mr..
H. A. Ulrich, manager of the Dover
Sears, Roebuck and Company re-
tail store.
He is proving and has proved,
that sciences newest gambit in the
home equipment field-glass lining
for Sears 1941 line of automatic
water heaters-will really work" !"
said Mr.. Ulrich.
A glass-lined heater that would be
both practical and within the buy
ing range of the mass market, has
been the goal of research for many
years, Mr.. Ulrich asserted. The ad-
vantages Of such treatment which
would resist the action of minerals
in any water, prevent rust and cor
TQ6lOh III a nGdLCAs anu SACalAy
crease durability, are obvious.
The job of the giant-which is
really a mammoth mechanical robot
lis to test the strength of the glass
lining. Looking like something out
of Aladdin's lamp, he flexes his BIZ
ceps and bends huge ring of steel
lined with glass. After $4,000 at
tempts he failed to crack or dam
age the glass lining. His herculean
calesthenics exert a pressure of 49,
600 pounds per square inch.
On the basis of the robot test, as
well as a pressure test of 300 pounds
which is six times the pressure
which a heater would sustain in the
average home, Sears was able to Of
fer ten-year guarantee on the new
glass-lined heater.
Twelve years of research on 500 |
formulas were necessary before the /
glass for the tank interiors was per- !
fected. More than a half million |
dollars was invested in tools and |
development work.
In order to do the job which the |
experts had in mind, it was
necessary to create a glass which
would fuse with steel and form an
ndivisible one-piece tank. The
luest for the proper minerals has a
3urton Holmes travelogue flavor.
From Brazil comes the rutile need
d to strengthen the silica used in
he manufacture of the liquid which
s sprayed in the tanks and baked
n. huge ovens to form a smooth,
Ough solid glass coating.
Borax from Death Valley was
dded to provide luster and elas-
icity.
Cryolite from Greenland, cobalt
xide from Hudson's Bay and pyro-
lsite from the steppes of Russia
upplied other vital elements in the
ynthesis.
In addition to the glass-lined tanks
Thich have just arrived in Dover for
heir local premier, Sears is offering
eaters with zinc lined tanks, gal
anized by an improved method.

urge beginners to start with the
straight ball and work for con-
troll Once they have gained
some confidence and accuracy
they can attempt the hook.
To roll a straight ball the
thumb is placed in a straight
forward position and it leaves
the ball first with the finger or
fingers depending on whether
the bowler is using a two or three
hole balD leaving last This re-

straight line.
The bowler should be careful
to aim In the direction OF the
pocket (the area between the

follow through as in all deliver

should take care that the ball
does not drop behind the foul line
