Heat Causes Hidden Shifts in Iron Structure
Dr Francis M L Walter explains that iron expands and contracts with temperature due to atomic rearrangements. X-ray studies show body centered cubic structure below a critical point and a race centered cubic arrangement above it, affecting properties like hardness and conductivity. Researchers at Carnegie Institute study iron manganese alloys, noting manganese lowers both the heating and cooling transformation temperatures.

Third Form Alloys Show New Atomic Arrangement
Researchers note that alloys with 1 to 25 percent manganese recrystallize into a hexagonal close packed arrangement when cooled. X rays indicate a smaller atomic volume than in the face centered cubic form, appearing near room temperature and vanishing with slight heating, accompanied by a length decrease. This slow room temperature change challenges assumptions about metal rigidity.
Books For Blind Wills Be Printed

Business Men Score Hit In Comic Skits on KTHS
Chester H Lauck and Norris Goff play Lum and Abner, two young business executives by day, entertaining radio listeners at Hot Springs on KTHS every Sunday. The characters were created after a Mena luncheon club asked for a short program, and their popularity led to a continuing weekly visit from Ozarks rural figures. Lauck heads a finance firm while Goff runs a wholesale grocery house.
