FRIGIDARE CORP. s GIVES MACHINE TO GEOLOGISTS Refrigerator Especially Adapted for Experimental Purposes -Now in LeConte ELIMINATES DIFFICULTIES Automatic Temperature Control Will Help Dr. Taber in His r Soil Experiments The ldepartment of geology of the University of South Carolina has re cently received from the manufacturers, t the Frigidare corporation, atv electric refrigerator for the promotion of certain experiments undertaken in the depart miont some time ago. The machine, which is especially equipped for experimental purposes, was recentlv installed in Le Conte College. The gift was made to enable Dr. Ste phen Taher. state geologist and head of the department of geology at the Uni versitv, to continue experiments i4n the freezing of soils which Dr. Taber has beiei conducting for some time. The investigation has heretofore -been at ten(led with great difficulties, however, because of the lack of apparatus to effect artificial freezing. Natural freezing. Dr. Taber states, was imsatisfactory be cause of the mildness and variability of the climate in this section and because the operator had no means of controlling the coilditions of the freeze. The new machine is equipped with nI automatic temperature control and other devices. Dr. Taber's investigation of the phenomena of soil freezing is ex pected to lead to important engineering results. since it involves the cracking aid heaving of paveints and other coin crete work which. in more Northern climates. is a source of incessant trouble and great economic loss. It is not the ni form expansioin which accompanies freezing that is destructive, Dr. Taber asserts, but the (lifferential or irregular elevation. which to a large degree is dv termined by the texture of the soil af fected. The results of the compieted investigation, it is believed. can. he util ized to prevent or greatly reduce the (lestructive effects of freezing, and the electric machine will make possible a minute checking and re-checking of ex teriments already made under condi tiolns less favorable. The results of Dr. 'Taber's experi m1ents have been published inl a iiumher of scientific and engineering journais. and have been called to the attention of $3,000. in cash prizes Announ< $30,000 ( contest wil newspapei lowing ma The Saturday Literary Dig Collier's I Liberty.
