Mermaid Festival To Be Bigger And Better

Hie Mermaid Festival at North Webster is going to be the biggest and finest yet reports the North Webster Lions club who is working harder than ever on the preparations for the 22d annual festival. Miss Sharon Mauzy, 1966 Queen of the Lakes, will be riding on a beautiful float surrounded by last year’s princesses in the Mermaid parade Saturday, June 24, at 5 p.m. Miss Mauzy will participate in the Miss Indiana Pageant as the "Qu.en of Lakes" on July 13. 14 and 15 at Michigan City.

Challenge For Students Posed By Science Show An important method of obtaining electrical energy was demonstrated at North Webster high school when General Motors traveling science show. Previews of Progress. was presented to students and faculty on Tuesday. May 23, at 10 a.m. Known as the fuel cell, this device converts chemical energy into electrical power. It is a potential power source for varied household and industrial uses that could prove to be one of the most significant scientific developments of the century. There are some applications where the relatively high costs of currently-developed fuel cells are far outweighed by the need of one or more oif their unique characteristics. The Gemini employed a hydrogen-oxygen fuel cell to supply electric power. "Although the idea of the fuel cell is over 100 years old and Edison worked very intensively on it many years ago, we do not yet know how to apply this principle in away that makes it economicalIly practical for general use," Dr.

i July 15. Cutie Queen and King The Lady Lions are in charge of, the Cutie Queen and King parade and contest to be held Wednesday evening. June 21. The parade will start at 7 p.m. with the contest following. This is one of the most favored events of the festival. Participants in the Cutie Queen and King parade and contest are four, five and six year olds. Anyone wishing to enter may write to the Mermaid Festival headquarters at North Webster.

Lawrence R. Hafstad, GM vice president in charge of research, I points out. J "We hope that die demonstration of this principle in Previews of j Progress will stimulate greater interest in the fuel cell and perhaps even inspire a would-be scientist who will some day contribute to the fuel cell’s practical development.” By burning sud electrochemically, the fuel cell can recover 80 to 95 per cent of the energy compared to the 30 to 40 per cent efficiency we now get from conventional power plants. In the Previews show, a few drops of “liquid sunshine" pro-1 vided sufficient energy to operate a, portable radio. of Progress is a noncommercial science show presented to encourage more students to • make science and engineering their j career. Packed with nine exciting | demonstrations, the 45-minute show i
