Whatever charm had kept the tuna from making the entry list during the first month of the tour- nament failed to work this round. ‘A lady angler came all the way from Detroit to place one in the contest. And speaking of the ladies, six of the besi fish this month were landed by the so-called “weaker sex.” Dick Mooney, of Atlantic Photo Supply, has just earned his sec- ond citation of the tournament. On | Feb. 7, he landed a 63-pound Jew- fish, On March 28, he boated a) 39% pound kingfish. He is a light | tackle enthusiast, and fishes from | the Greyhound. The Geo. H. Bates, Captain Tom- | my Lones, brought in a hammer- head shark Sunday. The fish mea- sured over 8 feet and weighed an estimated 300 pounds. It was | caught by Paul Carball, the mate on the vessel. If anyone wants to know how/| the snapper got its name, Capt. Tony Tarracino of the Greyhound has the answer. He was trying to take the hook out of a dog snap- per, when the fish snapped his fin- ger.

We were almost prevented by nature from ever having enough | potent uranium to make A-bombs, | or use atoms for tomorrow’s power | plants, The luck is that some atoms | don’t die off as fast as they might be expected to die. These are atoms of uranium-235 (U-235), the radioactive uranium | atoms which split in a chain re- action to yield heat and power. This U-235 is the basis of the whole | atomic age. It makes up only aj fraction of 1 per cent of ordinary, | nonsplitting uranium. Being radioactive, the U-235 starts to break down and blow apart and disappear. But it has a half-life of 700 million years. In that time, half of all the original U-235 disappears. In another 700 million years, half of what was left is gone. That means that there now ex- ists—anywhere in the universe— only about one fiftieth of all the U-235 which was created when the universe was created. Scientists | figure the universe and all the ele- ments were born four to five bil- lion years ago. If U-235 had a half-life of only 400 million years, there wouldn’t be enough of it available to use for chain reactions to make bombs or produce power. There would be only one 3,000th of the original amount made on creation day. It would be impossible to run a chain reaction with natural uran- ium, for concentrating enough U- 235 would be almost impossibly dif- ficult. The fluke is that U-235 is rather unusual in having such a long half- life, Dr. I. Perlman, professor of chemistry at the University of Cal- ifornia, explained today, Dr. Perl- man is attending the American Chemical Society’s annual meeting. In comparison with other heavy elements, U-235 would be expected to have a shorter half-life. But it is said to be “hindered” in its de- cay or breakdown. Some other heavy atoms have this character- istic, but not to as great a degree.
