Grocer for This Wednesday SURPRISE SPECIAL! “X” PARTICLE BIG PART OF COSMIC RAY ENERGY Discoverers Believe it Constitutes Most Penetrating Compo- nent of Radiation. By the Associated Press, PASADENA, Calif., Mary 24—Two young physicists, who discovered the “X” particle recently, reported yes- terday it constitutes 75 per cent of the cosmic ray energy found at low al- titudes. Drs. Carl D. Anderson ‘and Seth H. Neddermeyer of the Californis In- stitute of Technology said the new particle, which carries the same elec- tric charge as the electron, but les midway between it and the proton in size, apparently constitutes the most penetrating component of cosmic ra- diation which reaches the earth. In other words, the “X” particle’s penetrating power appears to explain why cosmic rays are the most pene- trating of all rays. More than 100 of the particles dash through each person’s head every minute. They pass through concrete as though it ‘were butter. — JOIN LAUREL CLUB LAUREL, Md., May 24 (Special).— Miss Julia Arnold, Miss Lida May Tes- terman, Mrs. Katherine Gough and Wilbur A.
