Happy ’59. everybody! And it’s back to the ol’ grind. After spending two weeki away from the books, students filed into the school building and proceeded with their les so n s as if

Tom Gross, who has been suffering from a foot injury, will be unable to play in Friday night's game; however, there are great hopes that he will be able to play in the '59 Adams county tourney.

Technical Process Devised By Israeli By DELOS SMFTH UPI Science Editor NEW YORK (UPI) — The inexhaustible waters of the seas may soon become available to make* deserts bloom and supply vast industrial needs, thanks to a scien- j tific invention which can extract the salt from it with a high efficiency at relatively small cost. This is the word circulating among interested scientists who understand ■ T’?:lL 1J ’ Israeli colleague, Alexander Zarchin, has been proved practical for large-scale application after more than two years of pilot-plant testing and experimentation. Zarchin’s invention is a technical process which capitalizes on a phenomenon known for untold centuries — frozen sea water is salt- ; free as it melts under certain con- ■ ditions. The extremely difficult ■ technical problem was to organize ' and control this natural chemis■jtry. Uses Complex Process ’ The technical process which , does it is complex. This has made ' for legalistic difficulties in setting up world-wide patent protection, it was sad. Israel financed the rfe2 search .and testing, and its government will not divulge any of • the finer techniques involved in ' the process until all patent prob- ' lems are settled, this reporter j learned. 1 The worth of the invention depends upon how much you need water since this controls now 1 much you can pay for it. Israel 2 and the entire arid Middle East need water desperately, especially ; Israel which is striving to develop 2 an extensive agriculture and inj dustry. Much of Israel’s water now comes from deep wells and it ’ costs eight to nine cents a cuin ’ foot to get to the surface. It was estimated that the Zarchin , hrocess coud desalt sea water at one half this cost. There are sev- , eral other ways of desalting. The 3 Zarehin way was said to cost one 3 tenth or less than the other ways. Flan Unsuited To U.S. ’ No less an authority than Dr. " R. L. Nace of the U.S. Geological Suvey believes that the wholesale conversion of sfea water is / not economically feasible for this ' country in the near future. The ’ arid sections -are too -far removed ' from the oceans. But for arid na- ’ tions bordering ,on seas, it could be economic'Salvation. The Sahara borders on the Mediterrane- ’ an, for instance. - What powers the process is - electricity and the only authoritaj i tive estimate of cost was in terms of kilowatt hours. Experimentally - three kilowatt hours will process • one ton of sea water and produce a high yield of fresh water. The cost of generating a kilowatt hour of electricity is quite high in the Middle East. Generation by water power is the cheapest method which would seem to rule out cheep electricity for arid countries. But development of the head waters of the River Jordan could generate it for transmission to sea water conversion plants along the coasts. So could Egypt’s projected high dam for the head waters of the Nile.

I Modern Etiquette I* By ROBERTA LEE — 0 Q. When a woman, traveling alone on a train, meets a man acquaintance and he invites her to the dining car, what does she db about the bill? i. A. She may properly assume that he wishes to be host, and that he will be offended if she refuses to allow him to pay. However, women who travel alone must be careful a bo u t accepting favors from men. It is usuaUy better to ask the waiter- to bring seperate bills. If a woman does accept an invitation from a man, it should be for one meal only.
