Bradford returned from a summer science institute cour se, it was only natural that the latest experiments would be offered to the sci- ence classes. Chemistry and physics students were particularly interested in the studies of radio- active disintegration of isotopes which the AEC sent us. New equipment for astronomy added to the equipment purchased last year provided the cadets COUNTING ISOTOPE DISINTEGRATION MAJOR C. E. SAVEDGE A.B.

In each course, however, the problems, equa- tions, drawings, and diagrams which are necessary to know before entering college received the lions’ share of emphasis. Brought back to the curriculum this year was physical geography, thus giving the cadets a wider range of electives in science than ever. to plot a perfect curve. Cam Lewis, John Gray, Clay Willcox, Ed Mazzei, Jim Crawford, Bob Hundley and Dave Wetty watch as the experiment begins. Capt. Bradford and Col. McCue set up a geiger counter to check the half life of radio-active phosphorus. With eight samples sent from the AEC, the classes were able
