DETROIT, Jan. 31.-(UP)-Man.
ager Jack Adams took his ailine
and much-shuffled Detroit Rec
Wings across the Canadian border
today with the knowledge that its
probably this week or never If the
Detroiters are going to be in the
National League playoff.
The Wings. now trailing only
four points ahead of the fifth
place Toronto Maple Leafs, are
scheduled for a heavy three-game
weekend opening tonight at Ham,
ilton, Ontario, against an ANA
teur all-star team.
Then the Detroiters must gel
down to serious league business
against the Montreal Canadiens al
Montreal Saturday. Both teams viii
return to the Auto City Sunday for
a second LllC.
Adams has done plenty Of line
up shuffling to bolster his fading
Wings and the weekend will tell
the tale. Part Of Adams strategy
was benching the veterans sgd
Howe, an in-and-out player all
season.
The Wing manager said he may
use Howe in the Sunday contest but
pointed out the veteran had shown
signs Of wear in Detroit's three con-
secutive setbacks.
Adams hope to get back In the
win column with q new forward
line featuring the promotion Of
Mud Bruneteau to right wing with
Murray Armstrong and Harry
Watson. Jerry Couture was ad-
vanced to center of the Number
2 line.

bomb explosion travel? How many miles away from
such an explosion could counter be placed and still
tell the world that an explosion had occurred? As yet
there no sure answer to these questions But there
is much suggestive evidence.
Shortly after the explosion of the Los Alamos
bomb in 1945 the Eastman Kodak Company noted
that hlm was being spoiled. Little white spots ind-
Gated that radioactive materials were exposing pack
aged film. Had radiation travelled nearly 1000 miles
from New Mexico to Rochester, NJ Y? This was the
first guess. but it was wrong.
The answer lay in the straw board containers in
which film was packed. Radioactive dust from the
explosion travelled 1000 miles from New Mexico
to midwest straw fields. Converted into strawboard,
this straw still contained enough radioactivity to
ruin film; enough to be detected by counter
Wesld Pelice Job
ANOTHER significant observation came from the same
bomb explosion. A physicist in Annapolis Md,
was conducting routine experiments with counter
Under normal conditions counters click continuously
set Oft by cosmc rays and other bits of stray radia-
ton. This is known normal background" Twenty
clicks minute is usual. On July l8 last year. this
physicist noted sharp increase. Weeks later he
learned OF the Los Alamos explosion. Thus, pteslm-
ably, the bomb explosion over halfway across the
continent had been detected - just as seisrnograph
detects earth treors at similar distances After the
Bikini tests, several laboratories detected a
significant rise in Ceiger Counter clicks.
While some physicists doubt these results others
equally well qualified are enthusiastic about the
counters possibilities in doing world police Job
They point out that radioactive particles have the
same properties light. They have wave bands, Just
as radio waves do 1t may be possible to narrow down
detecting devices so they will be sensitive only to
those bands. They also suggest the possibility of
adding directon-fnders so counters point to the
exact spot where an explosion took place.

counters might be placed aboard world airliners -
Or. they might be spotted over the earth in perma-
nent, sealed stations ready to sound off by radio
at any significant upsufge in radiation
Work is already under way on such applications.
Meanwhile, scores of jobs are opening up for the
counter in industry and commerce. 1t is good pros
pectng tool for locating uranium deposits clicking
furiously as it gets near body of ore.
Another new use of the counter is in sight - to
warn of fires. The flicker of single match creates
enough ultraviolet radiation to be detected by
counter. The instrument is also valuable in pro-
tectng mail and express. More and more radioactive
substances being shipped Unless counter sounds
warning, they can ruin thousands of dollars worth
of movie. X-ray and other films that may be aboard
the same plane or train.
Thus, as new jobs appear each day. the simple
little laboratory instrument invented % years ago
is assuming greater Importance as the watchdog
