quipment
for measuring temperatures above
2.000 degrees; and a number of
electric meters, heat measuring
instruments, and diffraction grat
ings for general laboratory use.
Modernization Program
The department's modernization
program has already brought about
tangible results in the form of
more effective teaching and'pro
luetive research by faculty mem
biers and graduate students, Dr.
Rogers saidl.
For example, the Office of Ord
aanee Research has negotiated a
onltract with the University for
'i joint physics research project in
the interest of the United States
Army.
Several faculty members are
schieduiled to present papers at
meetings of scientific organiza
tions. At the meeting of the
Southeastern Section of the Amer
ican Physical Society in early
April Dr. Rogers will give a paper
in fluid dynamiics, and Prof.
Charles Mercer and J. H. Williams
>f Neese, departmental assistant,
will present' a study on the seismol
igical observatory at the univer
sity. D)r. Rogers wvill also be on
thie program of the national meet
ng of the American Physical So
iety at Washington in May.
Among the faculty members who
ire working with the new physics
.ipmeintit are Mrs. M. C. Bate
nan, assistant professor, who is
nvest igating irradiated barium
itanate. Dr. Paul H-. Pitkanen,
in associate professor who joined
he faculty this year, is carrying
in studies of theoretical aspects of
elativity.
Francis Langford of Hlardeeville,
graduiate student, is doing re
earch for a thesis on diffusion in
iquaids, andl Reuben T. Thornton,
rIaduate student from Summer
'ille, is experimienting with neu
rolls.
"Tlhe newv equipment and ma
erial4 make necessary certain
ealth protection dlevices," Dr.
~ogers saidl. "Shielding bricks
tnde of lead or iron are used to
ormi a wall to pirotect those doing
-esearch with radiioactivity. Pocket
losinmenters are worn routjnely to
letermine how much radiation is
eeeivedl while being around these
naiit(oria ls.'

school of arts and sciences, school
of business administration, grad
uate school, summer school, and
extension division.
These school bulletins may be
obtained from the deans of the
various schools.
includes a high resolution inter
ferometer and a high resolution,
stigmatic spectrograph. Both will
be used by physics students to
study light in order to learn about
the properties and characteristics
of atoms and molecules.
