Research with radioactive material obtained from the Canadian Atomic Energy Project at Chalk River is being carried on in the hot labn of UBC's Chemistry Building. This and similar projects are typical of the fascinating but little-publicized experimental work done at UBC. The impressive pseudo-collegiate Gothic Chemistry Building contains about eighteen offices, 50 research labs, fifteen undergraduate labs and four lecture rooms, as well as the Chemical Engineering labs, which come under the Faculty of Applied Science. Half of the top floor is at present used by the Department of Bacteriology. Completed in 1922 it is one of the few permanent buildings on. the campus. Up until 1948 it was used jointly by Physics and Chemistry students. The mass spectrometer, one of the first of its kind in Western Canada, was supplied- to the university by the Defense Research Board for study of the oxidation of hydrocarbons used for rocket propellents. Special work is being done on the chemistry of wood and natural gums in order to find new uses. Photographs show scenes from the Bacteriology Lab, the Chemistry Balance Lab, and Chemistry 200.
