Radio Activity
Fights Crime

COLLEGE STATION, Tex. (AP)
Pinning a murderer by a single
hair and mailing a suspect with a
billionth of gram of gun powder
now appears possible in criminolgy
thanks to atomic research.
Scientists and engineers from 13
nations gathered at Texas A and M
College TO discuss a new scientific
technique called neutron-activatio
analysis, in which materials are
analyzed which have been made
radioactive by bombarding h m
with nuclear particles.
The radiation given off makes
possible a highly sensitive
accurate measurement of elements
vital TO research in the aero-pace
industry, chemistry, physic a
medicine-as we'll as in crime de-
lection.
r. e. Jervis, University of Tor
onto, Canada, said the Royal Cana
dian Mounted Police recently iden-
titled a murder suspect by a single
hair from his head that was found
in the hand of the victim.
This was accomplished by irrad-
iating the hair by a nuclear particle
source. The tradition entitled by
the hair was analyzed. Because
each chemical gives off a charact-
eristic wave, elements of the hair
could be identified.
Comparison tests between t h e
vict1ms's hair, the suspects hair
and hair of other individuals was
run. Scientists were soon satisfied
that the hair ip the victims hand
was exactly like that of the sus-
peot. The suspect was convicted.
California criminologists h We
used neutron-actiyation analysis to
find less than one hundred billion
tn of a gram of gun powder ON a
suspects hand, scientists fro m
General Atomic Division of Gener-
al Dynamics, San Diego, said.
Jervis said arsenic concentra-
tions in human hair and nails are
being determined by neutronacti-
walton analysis in suspected poison
ing cases.
Use of the technique on locks of
hair known to have come from the
head of Napolean BonapaI7te h s
revealed traces of arsenic An his
torical investigation is now in pro-
gress to see if the emperor was
poisoned or died of natural causes
in exile.

Spocemen Moy Take
Lessons From SnuiIs

Tiny Snails living in a New
Mexico hot-water spring may teach
Iastronauts how to withstand the
extreme heat of outer space. DR..
Austin Phelps. University of Tex
as zoologist, gathered the snails -
less than an eighth-inch in diamet-
er-from thermal streams as hot
as 144 degrees F. If the biochemi-
cal balance that provides the
snails and their invertebrate neigh
bors with their resistance to high
temperatures can be discovered,
Dr. Phelps says, the information
may help man sustain long space
flights in comfort Jet Aircraft load
a much as $4,000 gallons of fuel
for a flight to Europe from OHare
Information Airport, Chicago. The
jets consume about 1900 gallons
n hour, compared to SO gallons
for a large piston-engined craft.
A Buy Ghanian' drive has open
ed in the West African country
which gained it's independence
from Britain in 1857. The govern
ment is attempting to discourage
the commonly held opinion h
imported goods are automatically
superior to those made in Ghana,
calling this a colonial mentality.
A Boost in citrus consumption re-
miniscent of the 1920s' when can
ned juices were new is expected
from a process that removes 80
per cent of the water from orange
jice without affecting the flavor.
Ruotator vacuum drying experts
say the juice of 40 averages or
anges can be concentrated down to
a pound of crystals and later re-
constituted to a gallon of delicious
juice.
Lichens, one of the hardest
forms of plant life on earth, have
been used since antiquity for their
curative values. In the Middle
Ages, bite from a rabid dog was
usually treated with a serving of
lichen mixed in warm milk with
black pepper. A handbook recent
ly issued by the Smithsonian In
stitution reports that extracts of
some lichens acts as powerful an
tibiotics. A lichen salve is used in
Finland to treat external burns
and cuts. The big problem remain
ing, according to the report, is to
produce a water soluble lichen ex-
tract so that it's antibiotic effect
can be properly controlled.
