Only a half pound difference in pressure from that of the normal atmophere places a force of 1500 hundred pounds on the door...

It is not unreasonable to suppose that when the question arises again, as it will inside of a decade, a larger stadium will be built at Harvard...
Vitally important is the synthesizing of hematin, the red iron core which carries oxygen into the blood. Hans Fischer, 47, of the Munich (Germany) Institute of Technology worked on the problem 17 years and, last week, reported success. His synthetic he calls Hematine. In normal breathing, the blood's hemoglobin, which includes hemochromogen (compound of hematin), takes oxygen from the lungs and forms unstable oxyhemoglobin. Oxyhemoglobin readily gives its oxygen to body cells. When carbon monoxide is breathed, very stable carbon monoxide hemoglobin* results and the body cells cannot burn off their wastes, death results. In such poisoning Prof...
...from nine to ten o'clock in the evening was on the whole best suited for determining the strength of the radio signals each night. The broadcasting station, WBBM of Chicago, maintained reliable consistency in power which it transmitted and communicated with the Astronomical Laboratory concerning any departures from normal conditions. The intensity of the signal strength measured is that of the carrier wave which is not apparently affected by the modulations of the program broadcasted...
