The age of this prehistoric man was determined by the ingenious method of measuring the radioactivity of carbon 14 in the skeleton, : : Since carbon is present in all organic materia] and since it is known that radioactive carbon 14 has a half- life of about 5,000 years, it is not difficult to determine the age of prehistoric remains by measuring the radioac- tivity of any carbon 14 that they may contain. a paign leaflets.

Politicians of the party out of Power would look fetching to the voters in a toga of white, symbol of purity, with a small gold star of hope blazoned over the heart. IT can hear some gruff old U. S. senator grumbling already: “How could the people tell me from, an elected dog catcher or county clerk?” Thats easy, senator. Every pub- lic office would have its own cam- paign ribbon—from sheriff on up. You would weap on your chest Separate ribbons for all the offices you had been elected to. If you were serving your sixth term in the Senate, you would wear a sena- torial ribbon with five oak leaf clusters. A voter could view your chest and know your whole long and honorable public career, As it is now, you have to keep re- minding him. There remains only one problem. What about a uniform for a poli- tician who runs for office and loses?

Manus, Mrs. Grace Crosby, Camera News By IRVING DESFoR WHAT’S NEW in the photofield? A survey of what’s been cooking recently brings this batch of new Tecipes on gadgets, gimmicks, books and cameras. With summer approaching, dark- room comfort has been considered in designing a new light and ven- tilation, It should be comfortabie in winter, too, for there’; heat- ing element in the combination al- so, The light is controlled indepen- dently but in some models the fan and heating elements operate from a single switch. What 'd be looking for now, though, isthe mo- del with heating element “off” and fan “on” to provide a circulating flow of cool air, Especially designed for bathroom darkroom use, it can be installed in any darkroom. Children can’t tamper with it since it's out of reach and darkroom workers can’t accidentally back into it. (This Heat-A-Lite is made by NuTone, Inc., Cincinnati, Ohio.) AN INEXPENSIVE boom light to make accessory lightiny for amateurs easier will be available shortly. A 30-inch boom slides back/ and forth, rotates the full 360 de- grees and will fit any light stand. When a reflector flood light is put in the socket, it can be used as an overhead spot light or can be turn- ed toward the ceiling for bounce light. Its makes it news.
