Thursday, January 11, 1934. THE SALEMITE Page Three. N. S. F. A. GOES PLACES AND DOES THINGS tea, and what is remarkable, it wai a very successful affair, probably be cause it was given by such a notable hostess. A life sized portrait of Mrs. Coolidge in a' knee length red dress, was the first and last thing to be seen by the students cordially in and po litely out of the President’s Mansion. All other spare minutes between meetings and speeches and banquets were taken up with such things as going over Smithsonian Museums and Libraries of Congress, riding eleva tors up and down inside Washington monument, trying to count circles, statues and taxicabs, and throwing snowballs. It wasn’t entirely a play time tour, however, that induced so many stu dent government presidents, to leave their own Christmas and Family trees in the midst of the holiday season in order to attend a school convention. Led by an able President, John Lang (of North Carolina, who was also elected president for next year), the convention held meetings at all hours of the day and night, varying from formal, expanded, plenary ses sions ruled entirely by parliamentary procedure, to small friendly group meetings in which the members shook hands and really got to know each othei*. At each meetfng different problems were thrashed out: individ ual problems; how to collaborate ac- cademic and extra-curricular activi ties in each college; notional prob lems; what is the American students, part in our N. R. A, program; inter national problems; shall the N. S F. A. favor the holding of the next Olympic games in Berlin if Jewish athletes are to be denied privilege on erman soil.’’ These are only samples. So it is not surprising that those ^ur days spent in Washington at the N- S. P. A. Convention resulted in broadened minds, widened eyes, and loosened tongues of students now re turned to respective college all over th United States. MR. CAMPBELL ATTENDS SCIENCE ASSOCIATION (continued from page uSii) See minute particles as they were be ing thrown to the outside by centrifu gal action. The visagraph, a device which em ployed a photo-electric cell to scan a page and an electro magnet to make the impressions was able to reproduce type and pictures in a raised form, which enabled the blind to read by the sense of touch.. A moving series of pictures showed the development of blood cells, used in hematology. Micro-manipul^tors of the Jatest type enabled one to work with par ticles previously considered too min ute. The United States Bureau of en tomology shower methods of parasitic moth control and the types of insects imported to de stroy these moths. New crates and frames on which oysters are grown enable them to grow more abundantly and with less chance of enemy attack. Animals exhibited shower the bene ficial and detrimental effects of ap- ulying chemical knowledge to nutri- MRS. KILBUCK’S DEATH Salem students were greatly dis tressed to learn of the death of Mrs Kilbuck, who at the time of her death was living in Winston-Salem. Mrs. Kilbuck spoke less than a month ago in Y. P. M. concerning her firs' periences as a missionary to A1 , and students were looking forward to continuation of her talk Mrs Kilbuck died December 21. aged 68 years. She was one of the most outstanding missionaries of to day being in service in Alaska, where was greatly loved. Salem students not soon forget her enthusiasm and her interesting personality. The Massachusetts Institute of Technology demonstrated the fljrst practical method for hastening the condensation of steam which consisted essentially of oleic acid on a I condenser. A hospital showed new mechanical lodels which faithfully reproduce le appearance of the heart as seei by x-ray under the fluoroscope ii various heart diseases. The working models showed the typical changes in each disorder. New organic chemicals were played by Eastern Kodak Co. Photo graphic plates were exhibited showing the results obtained when a plate was specially sensitized for certain colors. The exhibits were far too numerous to mention here but one in particular which should be of interest to all was a series of automobile models made by the United States Bureau of Stan dards. A modern automobile of av erage size at sixty miles per hour developes a wind resistance of hundred and twenty-six pounds, like the new De Sota a resistance of fifty-four, and one like the “future automobile” only forty-five.
