Sciences Battle Against
CerIl-bearing Mosquitoes
By Meredith S. Buel
L60PERATING" with 6

COOPERATING" with a
" needle finer than a
human hair Is helping stamp
out a killer that has plagued
man for centuries.
William H. w. Komp per-
fected the needle. He uses
the delicate instrument to
remove and inspect vital or
gans that can't be seen by the
naked eye. His findings are
crucial to some countries, a
matter of life or death for
many thousands of people.
Mr.. Komp dissects mosqui-~
toes. Such painstaking work
is needed to identify vari-
Gus species-eSpecially those
whose needlelike puncture of
the skin might mean yellow
fever or malaria to an un-
suspecting victim.
AS medical entomologist in
charge of mosquito classifica-
ton for the Public Health
Service, he Is well known to
Central and South American
governments. Sometimes they
send small boxes to his Office
at the National Institutes of
Health. Inside are dead mos
quitoeS. With a few skilled
strokes of his needle, he can
identify them. Some are
harmless-others are killers,

often discovered in time to
ward of an epidemic.
For IS years, Mr.. Komp has
studied tropical disease-car-
riers, spending about half of
that time in the tropics. He's
made his way through steam
ing tungles, up inland rivers
teeming with alligators and
poisonous snakes and across
treacherous swamps and
marSheS-all in search of in
fected mosquitoes and their
larvae.
On occasion, he turned back
when an Indian spear en-
bedded in a river cast an
ominous shadow warming
to go no farther. He became
the friend of savage tribal
chiefs, in whose villages he
administered help to the sick
while tracking down the
deadly insects. Once, he re-
calls, to get to a stricken viii
lage near Bogota, Colombia,
he made a three-day trip over
the Andes, where a misstep
by his mule would have hurled
him into a rocky ravine.
Wedding out the killer dur
ing an epidemic is no easy
task. More than 1000 kinds
of mosquitoes exist" Mr..
Komp points out, land about

can play II as poetically-to
use q trite but still pertinent
word-as the late Dinu Lipatti.
For those who haven't yet
made his acquaintance, Lipatti
was a Romanian Of rather
extraordinary talent who had
just begun to establish his
concert-hall reputation when,
three years ago, he died at the
age Of AZ.
Somebody had the good
sense to have Lipatti make
some records, all Of which so
far issued have turned out to
be gems, and Columbia has
just come along with one
more, bearing Cfopin's B
minor sonata and a barcarolle,
nocturne and mazurka. It's
wonderfully expressive playing.
Lipatti's previous Grieg, Schu-
mann, Mozart. Bach and the
Chopin walteS should be in
vestigated, too, by any one who
hasn't done so already.
Robert CasadesuS' assured
keyboard technique finds its
latest outlet in a collection,
also from Columbia, of half a
dozen Scarlatti sonatas and
some pieces by Rameau. The

latter, oddly, seem to be the
first by that rather we'll known
Frenchman to appear on LIP
via piano, although Westnin-
ster's trojan harpsichordist,
Valenti. has turned out some
Rameau suites along with
quantities of Scarlatti. Some
may prefer to stick with the
antique tinkling of the harp
sichord, but I find Casadesus'
crisp pianiSm makes a refresh
ing change.
Some able cello playing in
an assortment which seems to
have that instrument as its
only common denominator is
at hand from Capitol, the cell
ist being Joseph SchuSter. The
familiar Schumann concerto
and the lush 'Kol Nidrei" of
Max Bruch are topped for in
terest by a c minor concerto
by Bach. Franz Waxman and
the Los Angeles Orchestral
Society provide the accompa-
niment in a recording which
serves the cello well but oc-
casionally transmits orchestra
sound which is a trifle coarse.

siderable renown hereabouts.,

TurntobIe Talk
By jones 6. Deone

It's infrequent that the lowly
guitar invades the rarif1ed alti-
tudes, Of serious music, but
when 1t does the responsibility
usually belongs to a fellow
named Andres Segovia.
Segovia seems to be able to
make a guitar do Just about
anything he chooses, from
sounding like a harpsichord to
seeming to be quadruplicates- of
itself. I have no doubt he
could sing cowboy songs to it,
too, If he wished. But he seems
to prefer to let his chosen in
strument speak by itself.
The eloquent way in which
it does so is pleasingly demon
strated in some solo pieces by
Villa Lobos, Ponce, Turina and
others (mosty Segovia arrange
ments) newly assembled on an
LIP by Columbia. The variety
Of effects is really astonishing,
and the musicality of it all
even more so.
The major attraction of this
disc, however, is the Castel-
nuovo-TedeSco concerto dedi-
Gated to Segovia in 1889, which
the guitarist plays with the
collaboration of Alec Sherman
and the New London Orches-
ira. Mozart's harp-f1ute con-
certo is probably the nearest
equivalent, but the harp is a
far less flexible instrument.
This graceful and melodic
score sets the Segovia fingers
plucking regally and ought to
be just the thing for the record
collection which hasn't given
the guitar serious representa-
ton.
Segovia's tranScriptions Of
the famous "Chaconne" and
a batch of other Bach pieces,
available on MGM. are fur
ther testimony to his versa

tility, and since Bach has been
Transcribed for practically
everything else, they should
disturb no eyebrows. I would
question the propriety Of
coupling the guitar selections
on a disc with three organ
preludes and fugues, as MGM
has done, however. (The or
gan playing, by Carl Weinrich
of Princeton, is somewhat dis
sipated by pitch waver on my
copy.) MGM previously issued
both sets separately and might
better have left them as they
were.
The "Chaconne" still sounds
more provocative in the orig
inal. And that, and the whole
of Bach's three sonatas and
three partitas for unaccom-
panied violin, have just come
to hand in what, in at least
one respect, must be a per-
formance approaching the ul-
innate. There is no one to-
day, by common acceptance,
who can equal Heifetz in the
sheer mechanics of fiddle
playing. And there is no violin
music more exposed or more
challenging than these pieces
of Bach's. Heifetz makes them
seem easyt-something which
to my ears they have never
seemed before. This may not
please the hearer who always
takes a sort of pride in sweat
ing through them with the
performer, but it's a remark
able listening experience.

L'EtoiIes de Paris
The Obelisk Gallery, 3241 p
street, inaugurated its second
season October l with an ex-
hibition of 13 paintings by five
Parision artists, Civet, Clave,
Despierre and Schenck, whose
work is shown in Washington
for the first time, and Olivier
Foss, who was represented in
several group shows last sea-
son. The current exhibition is
sponsored by the Ambassador
of France and Nine. Bonnet,
who lent a painting by Des-
pierre from their own collec-
ton.
Eight paintings by Jacques
Despierre and six by Jean
Claude Schenck give the visi-
tor a comprehensive acquaint-
ance with their work. M.
Despierre's forte is the pic
turesque charm Of place,
either panoramic, as in
Loire" reflected in the water,
or the characteristic glimpse,
such as "Rooftops," Light
house" and Quay" all nat
uralistic, but simplified to
essentials, in fresh, high-keyed
color. M. Schenck's paintings,
mostly still life, praised by
Pierre Gaxotte for their "clar-
ity of composition, economy Of
means, subtle harmonies and
exquisite delicacy," are so ret
icent in their predominant
grays. sparingly warmed with
rose, green or some other color,
that their merits may escape
the visitors casual glance.
Schenck's large landscape,
with its fading light, ghost
like trees and general feeling
of serenity. is the top work in
his group.
Olivier Foss' three views Of
Paris and the Seine convey
the charm Of the familiar
places with dramatic effect Of
omnious skies.
Andre Civet's three paint
ings are more advanced"
than the above mentioned. In
his View Through a Grilled
Window" his best, the pattern
of the grille is superimposed
on a -dimensional block Of
old houses on a river.
1t seemed to me that Clave's
three paintings, with their hot
color and zombielike figures,
are at a disadvantage from the
popular standpoint, in juxta-
position to the work of the
other four.
This exhibition will remain
through the month.

Ice
By JESSE GREEN

ALL LIQUIDS solidify at some
temperature, and most substances
contract on cooling and expand
on heating, as is the case with
the common gasses, wood, most
metals, etc. Only a few sub
stances expand as they get colder.
Ice is the best known in this class.
Type metal, an alloy of bismuth
and anthony, is another ex-
ample. After the molten metal
is poured into the moulds for
type this alloy expands, making
sharp easy read letters.
AS is we'll known, water freezes
at 0 degrees Centigrade. 1t does
not expand at once but decreases
in volume as the temperature
goes down to A degrees Cent?
grade. This is according to the
general rule that most substances
contract on cooling, but after A
degrees, ice turns right around
and begins to expand as the tenn
perature goes down. All pipes,
radiators, rocks and everything
gives way to the tremendous
force, which has brought trouble
Montana farmer-stockman. [volume] (Great Falls, Mont.) 1947-1993, 1953-01-15

Ice on the Yellowstone. We well
to most of us at some time or
other.
Because of its expansion, ice
becomes lighter than the water of
which it is composed. By virtue
of this change in volume ice usu-
ally (but not always, as we shall
see next issue) rises to the surface
of lakes and rivers, protecting
the main bodies of water from
freezing solid, which would be a
disaster almost beyond our mag
ination. If all water froze, sum-
mer would not be long enough to
thaw things out again.
There is another important
property of ice, known as ''The
latent heat of ice" After water
reaches the freezing point it takes
the loss of considerable heat en-
ergy to finish off the job of MAX
ing it into solid ice. Actually
this latent heat amounts to 80
calories to solidify one gram of
water into ice after the freezing
temperature is reached. That is
what often saves us with that
radiator or pipe, as it takes lit
tie time to extract so much heat
energy from the water before it
freezes and breaks things.
The latent heat in all the ice
and frozen ground in our north
ern countries is an amount of en-
ergy far greater than we can
comprehend. 1t acts as a COVER
nor that temperatures may not
change too quickly. If there were
no latent heat energy, tempera-
lures would fluctuate so rapidly
that all forms of life would have
difficulty to stand the changes.
The two properties of ice, that
is, its expansion on cooling anc
the latent heat it possesses, are
two fortunate provisions in Ma.
ture in which the whole system
is set up to run.
