For Clamorous Fingernails

Do you want to have glamorous
6~ngernails? Well. you can! Buy a
small bottle of white iodine at your
druggists. Ask for a bottle with a
glass stopper. If you can't get the
stopper, use the tail Of a rat-rail
comb in its place. Then buy a small
jar of any reliable. lubricating hand
cream.
Every night last thing before you
go to bed. place a drop Of white
iodine under each fingernail. Then
massage a dab of the hand cream
into your nail cuticle. The white
iodine serves to strengthen the nail.
The %lubricating cream softens the
cuticle. stimulates the growth of
the nail at the root.

The electron beam, like that Of tele-
vision, moves in a straight line and
since the surface of the earth is
curved, this curve gets in the way
if the image and receiving set are
too far apart. Therefore, land sets
are placed as high in the air as
possible.

Poke Out
laps 'Eyes'

One Of the reasons why Two Jima
and Okinawa we're so important, be-
sides the fact that they make ex-
cellent naval and air bases, is be-
cause the Japs had their radar de-
lection stations on these islands and
we're able to detect the presence Of
our bombers and intercept their
flight. You will also recall that a
number Of little adjacent islands
that hardly seemed Of any impor-
lance were seized by our troops.
In all probability it was because
they had radar installations which
could detect and give warning Of
planes leaving the larger island for
Japan. AS we put out her "eyes"
one after another, Japan becomes
more impotent. There have been
many cases, you may have noticed,
where the Japs. on land or On small
ships, have been taken by surprise.
I have no information on this SUBJ
ject, but in some cases it may have
been due to the fact that they
lacked radar equipment. 1t is be-
lieved that what radar knowledge
Japan has came from the Germans.
OF course. there is one phase Of
radar detection which in the past
has sometimes prevented use Of
data concerning the detection Of a
plane or ship. That is the fact that
until the object is very close it can
not be identified. 1t is merely a
''blip" of light. Therefore, it is i'm
possible to tell friend and enemy
apart. Some sort of Identification
has been developed, details of which
are still, I believe. top secret"
An example OF how this worked to
the disadvantage of the British was
in the engagement in which Inns
Hood was lost. On May 81. 194l,
the Hood was lying in the strait be-
tween Iceland and Greenland when
suddenly out Of nowhere she was
hit by a salvo from the 15-inch
guns Of the powerful Bismarck. The
Bismarck had accurately located
the Hood with radar equipment;
the first reported successful use OF
redar in such a naval operation in
the war. 1t is said that the Hood
had likewise detected the presence
OF a ship at the spot where the Bis.
marck was. but knowing that a
number Of friendly warships were
in the vicinity, did not dare to take
the chance Of attacking first.
Many improvements have beer
made in radar which are not as ye,
ready for the public eye and al
say the study is only in its infancy
Scientific achievement seems limit
less and the one virtue Of war is
that it spurs inventive genius te
great strides Of progress.
When peace comes radar viii

the layman hardly dreams.

intelligence branch, for the first

cinctly: "A radar set is nothing
more than a machine for sending
electrons out into space in a steady
stream in a desired direction. These
%electrons travel with the speed of
light in a straight line until their
energy is dissipated, OF unless they
bump into something"
That bump is important. If a
stream of electrons is shot into the
air like a searchlight and a plane
flies across the stream. the cleo
irons which hit the plane bounce
back. They bounce right back to a
screen in the radar scope and r
revealed in the form Of a "blip'

been demonstrated that bats use
the same principle in avoiding OBJ
stacles (Which they can't see since
they are blind) by uttering a tiny
''beep." the pitch Of which is prob
ably too high for the human ear to
catch. Their beep bounces back in
time to warn them to duck.
But radar's el%ectronic ''blip" is
better than a sonic 'beep." One
reason is that an electron moves
with the speed of light which is fast

CUBS BEAT TIGERS

DETROIT-The underdog Chi cago Cubs brought extra base bats to the first game of the world series and shelled the feared Hal Newhouser from the mound for three innings and galloped to a nine to nothing victory over the Tigers.
 In biting 45-degree weather, be- fore a jam packed sell-out crowd adept National League champions made a shambles of the Tigers top twirling thirteen hit attack stood off the American League sluggers all the way.
 Borowy, right handler, whom the Cubs bought for a hundred thousand from the Yankees in mid season came up with a wobbly control early in the inning, but was helped some by the spectacu- lar fielding and survived all threats so well that only one Tiger got as far as third base. This was Doc Cramer, center fielder, who sin gled in the first inning. Walks by
