TEN-YEAR AWARD Sion Jen
nings, left, proprietor of the Chapel
Hill Tire Co., receives the Goodyear Tire
and Rubber Company’s recognition of
New Show Playing
At Planetarium
“How Do We Know,” the More
head Planetarium’s first pro
gram of the fa\l season, is now
showing and will continue through
October 7.
“How Do We Know” was pre
pared from suggestions by Plane
tarium narrator R. S. Dodson,
who narrated the opening per
formance. It is designed to an
swer astronomical questions that
often puzzle the public.
Some of the public’s questions
may seem absurdly ridiculous,
but they are good questions nev
ertheless. For instance, how do
we know that earth is round?
School children "know” the earth
is round, chiefly because the
science textbook says so. But
how can you prove it?
A ship disappears over the
horizon, but this only indicates
that the earth is not fiat; it
might be egg-shaped. There are
two proofs of the earth’s round
ness: the round shadow it casts
during lunar eclipses: and the
photograph astronaut John Glenn
took of the earth from an al
titude of 100 miles, showing the
curvature of the earth’s surface.
Other questions “How Do We
Know” answers are how it is
known that the earth turns < there
are several proofs of the earth's
rotation, one of which can be
performed with a child’s toy);
how distances in space are
measured (geometry does it);
and how stars’ brightness, and
the N6peed of their motion are
determined.
These last three questions are
THte CHAPEL HILL WEEKLY
service given to Goodyear dealers after
ten years. Presenting the award is
Mark Henderson, Goodyear’s district
representative.
answered with the spectroscope,
which can tell from light refrac
tion patterns not only how fast
a star is moving and where to,
but can also determine the pres
ence of two stars close together
when the most powerful tele
scope on earth can detect only
one.
“How Do We Know” is en
riched with enlarged photo
graphs, drawings, and diagrams
projected on the 68-foot dome of
the Planetarium chamber. The
program also includes an expla
nation of how scientists have
“weighed” the globe (in tons,
its weight in figures is 66 follow
ed by twenty zeroes*.
Performances of “How Do We
Know” are at 8:30 p.m. week
days; 11 a.m., 3,4, and 8:30
p.m. Saturdays (11, 5, and 8:30
on UNC home football Satur
days); and at 2,3, 4, and 8:30
p.m. Sundays.
Performances for school groups
are given, by advance reserva
tion only, on Wednesdays, Thurs
days, and Fridays at 11 a.m., 1
and 4 p.m. Admission is 35 cents
for children through age 11, 50
cents for students in grade 7
through college, and 75 cents for
adults. One adult chaperone is
admitted free with every ten
members of any group. Clergy
men are admitted free at all
times.
WMU Will Install
Officers Tomorrow
A new corps of officers will be
installed for the coming year in
the Women’s Missionary Union
of the University Baptist Church
tomorrow night at 8 in the
Church. This installation will
constitute the WMU’s regular
general meeting service. .
The membership will be as
signed to new circles according
to the two-year revolving plan
used by missionary unions
throughout the Southern Baptist
Convention to promote closer re
lationship among their members
in the churchwide communities.
The Everette White, Fannie
Hcck, and Lottie Moon Circles
will meet at the Church at 7:15
for short business sessions prior
to the general meeting.
Sweet Spud
Flakes Score
Mighty High
By M. E. GARDNER
Folks like instant sweet potato
flakes. In restaurant tests con
ducted in New Orleans, Louisiana
and Cleveland, Ohio, 20 to 25 per
cent of the customers ordered
instant flakes and 80 to 90 per
cent gave the product a rating
of very good.
The process of producing in
stant sweet potato flakes result
ed from research conducted by
Dr. M. W. Hoover, a member of
the research staff of the Agri
cultural Experiment Station at
North Carolina State. This pro
duct is increasing in popularity
as production catches up with
demand.
An Ashe County reader writes:
“I have five fig plants from sue
inches to four feet high. Can
you tell me how to protect them
this winter so they will not
freeze back to the ground as they
did last winter.”
The fig is best adapted to the
lower Piedmont and Coastal
Plain. In these regions the
plants are sometimes cold in
jured, during periods of severely
low? temperatures, unless they
are protected from cold drying
winds by buildings or wind
breaks. The elevations in these
regions range from sealevel to
about 800 ft. above.
In Ashe County most of the
cultivated land is above the 3,000
ft. level and out of the usual
range of adaptability of the fig.
For this reason winter protection
is a must. I want to keep in
touch with this reader to learn
what success he has at this high
altitude.
If you have been troubled with
cold injury you might try this
procedure for protection.
Completely cover the plants
with grain straw. Press the
straw around and between the
stems and stack enough around
the entire plant to insulate
against the cold. Cover the
straw stack with heavy cloth, or
tarpaulin, and anchor well at the
base to hold in place and pre
vent cold air from entering at
the bottom. This is especially
important in the mountains be
cause the winds can really rattle
the rafters in wintertime.
Where the temperatures are not
so severe, straw may be used,
as suggested, and then stack
cornstalks around the straw to
hold in place. Tie the
securely.
These are two simple sugges
tions for protection against cold
injury. You may have a better
idea.
