' Polio scientists have been encouraged by experiments in the growing of the infantile paralysis virus in eggs. The alien viblet irradiation technique employed at the Michael Reese Research Foundation represents many years of hard work and costly research. The ultra-violet lamp, which renders the virus harmless, is extremely powerful in short wave radiation.

A Complicated Apparatus The live virus in solution is pumped through a hair-thin, flat, transparent quartz chamber which at one point in the apparatus is directly under the killing beam of the ultra-violet light. By accurate timing, the virus is exposed for only a fraction of a second and then passes on to a reservoir, later to be used in experimental animals. Other laboratories are attempting to. produce a vaccine against infantile paralysis, using other means of killing or attenuating the virus. ' Seeing th polio scientists at work is convi that infantile paralysis will be whipped; that a vaccine will be found—one that will duplicate nature’s own way of pro-

When a hen- enters a nest to lay, a trap door closes on it and every hour an attendant passes | by and releases the hen, and puts the hen's number on the egg, By careful cross breeding the Creighton farm has produced hens which will lay 100 eggs without rhissing a day.

helped develop the paper, ‘Some. of the possible uses for the strong, tough paper are to wrap varied items, These include wet fruits and vegetables or radio parts, or to make strong bags and. sacks and for outdoor advertising. Secret of the high wet-strength of the map paper is a colloidal solution of melamine-formaldehyde resin added to the pulp, This resin bonding process helps the paper stand up under conditions which would disintegrate conventional types of paper.
