Two new major scientific divisions High Energy physics and solid state science have been formed to carry out the work it was announced. Both divisions will use subatomic particles to probe into a Guinea pig is used to demonstrate a tiny new resuscitator developed to help save the lives of Newborn babies who have trouble drawing their first breaths.

Apall 13 toll takers on the Centennial Bridge at the Mississippi River Between Rock Island and Daven port Iowa were suspended after officials reported a shortage in toll funds they said May total $750,000. Police were installed As toll takers on the Span which is used by an average of 10,000 autos and 2,000 trucks daily. State s attorney Bernard , of Rock Island county said indictments will be sought fro the Federal grand jury meeting in Springfield 111. Executives not involved Moran emphasized that neither the Bridge superintendent William e. Downing nor members of the Bridge commission headed by Franklin Wingard were involved in what Moran called a wholesale looting of tolls which probably started soon after the Bridge was at a hastily called meeting the Ridge commission decided on immediate installation of automatic toll collecting equipment. Moran said this is the Way the scheme worked an Auto or truck in passing Over the Bridge would Cross a treadle which automatically counted the vehicle s axles. A electric unit in the toll takers cages computed what the vehicle owed. The treadle would be turned off at certain periods and the col lectors would pocket the toll taken in during those times Moran said. Last april 20 one toll taker who refused to participate in the scheme came to Moran and re ported it. The employee said the a filly loot ran from $7.50 to $40 daily. The employee Moran said pretended to fall in with the scheme and took his. Daily share which he turned Over to Moran. Fri enters Case the Fri was called in and sent an estimated 15 agents. They set up Headquarters in a Davenport hotel at the foot of the counted with electronic equipment each vehicle traversing the Bridge and tallied the daily tolls which should have been turned in by the toll takers. On agent disguised As a vagrant was posted daily near the toll takers Booths for closer observation. Wingard the commission chair Man said the thefts were made possible by a defective engineering design of the treadle system. He said an investigation showed Sev eral toll takers were spending far in excess of their $380 monthly salaries. Driver lets Lizzie foot Raee on own Memphis Tenn.

The key equipment in the High Energy studies will be the 12.5 billion Electron Volt particle accelerator now under construction at Argonne s Lemont iii., site near Chicago due for completion Early next year the synchrotron which boosts along protons until they reach fantastic speeds and then hurls them at a target is capable of producing All 30 subatomic particles Al ready discovered or believed to exist. Most of these particles Are unstable existing for Only a Short time outside an atomic nucleus. Interim measure until the new machine is completed the division will use other nigh Energy particle accelerators for its new division will work in close cooperation with the Aronne accelerator users group. Organized this year the group consists primarily of Midwest physicists who have an interest in High Energy solid state science division studies will involve a mingling of physics chemistry and metallurgy. Cold extremes the scientists also will use a rays electrons visible and Ultra Violet Light and microwave radiations to probe into matter. The scientists also will study sub stances at temperatures approach ing absolute substances Are composed of a kind of lattice work of atoms. The atoms always Are in motion vibrating in much the same Way As a fiddle string. The vibration i slowed almost to a Stop at temperatures near absolute Zero.

Put Down those pills Mother you re just tired by John Harbour new York a feeling beat Mother kids got you Down feel irritable rundown just not As Well As you used to be Well relax you re probably not sick. You re just tired. Most Youn mothers Are reports or Leonard l. Lovshin of the Cleveland clinic in the july Issue of Post graduate Medicine Lovshin says a tired Mother is not necessarily maladjusted she la spent not burdened with guilt merely Overly conscientious and most important of All she is not sick just tired. We physicians in our desire to be of service often forget this a witness the Long list of medications we prescribe to be swallowed or injected for Relief of tired Mother is usually worrisome and tense and Overly conscientious. She just can t keep up with All the jobs she has set before Hen Given the Best husband is a difficult creature and the boundless activity of Normal children can produce fatigue in parents who merely observe it says Lovshin. Despite labor saving devices in the Home life has become More complicated not less. The modern Mother is required to be House wife Handyman chauffeur child psychologist and Lovshin studied the records of211 women who came in for Rou Tine physical examinations Over several months. Sixty of them had at least one child less than 16 years old. Of those 48 were classed As tired mothers. Yet not one of these had a significant organic disease. Generally they were a pretty healthy group. How do you treat people like that the Best Way says Lovshin is to convince them that we Al have different amounts of Energy and a Mother has to learn to live within her Supply of Energy. And then he suggests the Doc Tor might Point out that the last generation of tired mothers came through it All very Well
