Lincoln, Neb. where Professor Jensen ponders the lightning, is a fair place for it. Better is Tampa, Fla. which holds the U. S. record with 94 thunderstorms a year. Best is Baliburg in Cameroon, Africa with 200 a year. San Jose, Calif, has the U. S. minimum with one a year. Most lightning goes from cloud to cloud. What goes from cloud to ground kills about 50 people per year...

Artist Orozco, whose jutting jaw and glittering glasses make him look not unlike an ecstatic bullfrog, is, like his friend and compatriot Diego Rivera, one of the most important mural painters in the Americas, an avid reviver of the art of true fresco. Few months ago he lectured before Dartmouth College's Department of Art. Dartmouth's chief pride is a new Georgian library, gift of the late George Fisher Baker. It has nice new walls that made Muralist Orozco...
