They are of seven teams that take the show "Liquid sunshine" powered portable radio. A mail platform moved across the floor on a thin layer of air. And a "misbehav ing" suitcase illustrated principles used in modern guidance systems. Laurel and Marshall students saw these and other interesting demonstrations when the famed General Motors science show, Pre views of Progress, appeared St the school last week. "We seek through Previews to inspire more young people to make science and engineering their career and provide the train ed talent America must have to keep pace with the promise of the future," John F. Gordon, pres ident of General Motors, declares. Rick Olshove and Alex Cichy, of cells on the hood of the ear convert light rays into aloe trieal motor inside the car. A 300- A I tJ..lt t,Ul.

One of the highlights of the show was a fuel cell, a device that converts chemical energy into electrical power. Potentially one of the most significant scientific developments of the century, the fuel cell manufactures electricity with much greater efficiency than is now obtained from conventional power plants. During the show, a few drops of "liquid sunshine" added to the cells provided enough energy to operate a portable radio. Another example of solar ener gy, the amazing Sunmobile, was In addition to sun power, the Previews audience saw an air bearing platform in operatton. This small platform, supported by three Urge circular pads, is de signed to slide over any flat sur face on a thin layer of sir. The operation of the Previews platform is simple. A small blow er forces aid through the three pads, creating s thin layer of air between the pads and the floor. The ah eliminates nearly all slid tag friction, enabling easy mobil ity of the platform. Another Previews sequence il lustrated principles used in mod ern guidance systems. A student volunteer manipulated a suitcase with "a mind of its own" as the lecturer explained how today s planes, ships and missiles are safely guided along predetermined courses. Students also saw the Explod ing Wire Phenomenon. Using the principle of stored energy, a 10 watt power supply furnished about 30-million watts in an in stant to demonstrate the electrical disintegration of a fine wire This phenomenon may someday propel space vehicles. Other Previews demonstrations included samples of the wonders of modern chemistry and a cap- 1 Previews of Progress has been seen by mora than a2 million American students and adults. The demonstrations, constantly updated to keep pace with recent technological advances and pre sented in easy-to-understand non technical language, have proved to be a big hit with students around the globe. Nearly seven million persons in Latin America, Europe, Africa, Australia and New Zealand have seen the show. At the request of the U. S.

One big reason for this was railroad transportation -vital then, as now, to America's growth, economy and defense. Now for the big thought! Today, American consumers are being cheated out of several billion dollars annually by artificially high freight rates. Rates kept high by regulation which kills off real competition. Congress can let consumers keep this now-wasted money in their pockets available for constructive spending. How? By passing legislation re peatedly recommended to Congress, that true I compcuwon be substituted for present unnec essary , regulation of reductions in freight rates on agricultural and bulk commodities. This also will improve the competitiveness of American products against foreign products, at home and abroad. It's a big thought, all right-as big as all of America's consumers. The lawmakers of our country should have the foresight and cour age to correct this sorry situation. BLOODSHED BOXSCORE ON N. C.

(Isaiah 60:1.) God made man very good nnd fine in the beginning, but man turned away from Him and be came wicked and sinful. Then Gad promised man a Messiah who would deliver him from his sins and teach him and help him to live in the godly way. The Jews generally thought the Messiah would appear as an earth ly king who would conquer other nations that had risen against them. Therefore, they did not recog nize (Jhnst when He came be cause of their idea as to the kind of Savior He would be. The re ligious and political leaders re jected Him, and the people cried out, "Let him be cruicified." How ever, some who believed He was the Christ accepted Him in their hearts. Jesus Christ is, indeed the Mes siah. We need not ask, "Is He th9 Messiah, or shall we look for an other?" We can rejoice, for our light has come, and the glory of the Lord has risen upon us. Prayer: Our merciful Father, lead us to the conviction that the Christ whom Thou didst promise and for whom man waited has come. Forgive us for not accept ing Him, for we have sinned and need Him to redeem us. We pray in the name of the Light of the WCC To Conduct Academic In-service Institute In Spring i Cullowhee Western Caro lina College will conduct an aca demic in-service area institute at David Millard Junior High School in Asheville on Thursday evenings from March 11 through May 20.
