ffze gfqcgyfqzt : 1934 coating watch dials. The luminous ma- terial which is used is a mixture of radi- um and a special preparation of zinc sul- phide. The reason that it can be used so extensively on cheap watches is that only about one millionth of a gram of radium is needed to coat the average watch dial. As radium is a very rare metal, con- sequently it is very expensive. The radi- um produced in the Belgian Congo mines in Atrica costs seventy thousand dollars a gram. As only the rays of radium are used in curing diseases. the metal itself may be used over and over. Because of this, radium banks have been established R in many of the large cities of the world where a minute glass tube of radium may be rented at the rate of fifty dollars a day. Today there are about three Pounds ot radium in the world which have been ex- tracted from the ore and are in a form suitable for use. Scientists hope to find a way of increas- ing the rate of disiutigration of uranium and thereby obtain large quantities of radium. but this might not be safe for civilization, as the rays of radium are so destructive to all types of plants and ani- mals.

BASEBALL The Natick High School Baseball season opened early in April. Coach Donahue had six regulars answering the first call. The team formed by Coach Donahue was a fine one considering the lack of funds and of a suitable playing field. The team went along defeating all com- ers until they met Norwood, who set Na- tick back twice. Their third defeat came at the hands of our old rival, Framingham by a sc-ore of S-7. All three of these were rl:-rcifled in extra inning games. Coach Donahue deserves great praise for the good showing of this team. We hope that hw- will continue to have many win- ning ball tvanis. 15915-4 SCHIQDULE Natick 2 Dedham 1 Natick 12 Holliston U Natick 15 Net-dham 5 Natick 4 Vt elleslcy 0 l'Af1l-I 'VNV ENT Y Natick 6 Norwood 110 inningsl Natick 13 Holliston Natick 20 Needham Natick 5 Wellesley Natick 2 Norwood 111 inningsl c Natick 7 Framingham 412 inningsj Natick Z Waltham Natick 7 Dedham Natick 2 Framingham .., TRACK The track team wnich functioned for the first time last year has a larger schedule this year.
