Radioiron Aids Deficiency Study in Los Angeles
In Los Angeles Dr. Jeanette Schulz of UCLA Medical School received a $5,000 fellowship to study iron deficiency in infants using radioactive iron in milk eggs and cereals. The experiment tracks iron absorption in infants by tracing radioiron through dairy and cereals to determine how much iron is absorbed and whether diets meet blood-building needs, guiding supplementation decisions.

Previous blasting attempts failed due to turbulent tides, with actual destruction not expected until 1957 or early 1958.
