Atomic Battery Principle Simple As Furnace Gadget

By JACK DAVIS

BALTEMORE (AP)—The. prin- ciple behind the new American atomic device that creates elec- tricity is as tommonplace as a simple gadget in many home fur- maces.

While the pilot light of your gas furnace is on it keeps hot a gmail metal rod. The heat in this rod generates a low-order elec- dric current which keeps the valve on the gas line open. |

But; when thé pilot light goes out, the electrical current disap- pears. So the valve closes.

It’s based on a discovery worked out more than a century ago by Thomas Johann Seebeck, called the Seebeck Effect.

The Martin Company was given the contract last April to build an atomic device for creat- ing electricity.

The project engineer for the device, 33-year-old Melvin Bar- Minn., to confer with officials of the Min- mesota Mining and Manufactur- ing Company, a maker of the

: commonp]ace safety gadgets for

gas furnaces. USE SEEBECK’S IDEA

, The two companies decided on using Seebeck's principle in this way:

= In the centre of @ cylinder 4

inches in diameter they would al- low space for the heat: source.

-Around this inner cylinder they

would place 20 pairs of rods (lead telluride) in V-shapes, with the bottom of the Vs touching the in- mer cylinder and the tp of the Vs against the outer skin of the container.

Rural Residence

\ MORELL - The kitchen of a home some. four miles from Morel suffered considerable damage by a fire that broke out

about 10 a.m. Friday.

The residence is occupied by Merlin MacCarthy and family and Ephriam Malone. Mrs. Mac- Carthy and Mr. MarcCarthy’s mother were home at the time of the blaze but had it under control by the time firemen from Morell reached the scene.

Alberry Plains WI Holds Meeting

Mrs. Norman MacMillan put on a contest which was won by

Mrs. Andrew Doyle.

Mrs. James Doyle invited the

Thus, when the reaction was started, the rods at the bottom of the V, next to the inner cylinder, would be heated to at least 1,100 degrees and the rods would be cooled at the open end of the V, thus setting up the hot-arid-cold series.

It took months to prepare the machine and the various parts. The showdown came a week and a half ago in the basement of one of the buildings at the Martin plant. Hour after hour a small Zroup of scientists made the pre- cise fittings’ and adjustments. . HOT ATOMIC FUEL

Then came time to insert the atomic fuel — polonium 210. It was only a small amount—i,500 curies, or about 1-100 of an ounce —but it was tremendously hot to handle, both in temperature and radiation j .

GEORGETOWN — A (ouble feature held the spotlight at the Georgetown rink on Saturday night. The local Eagles proved their mastery over the Souris Legionnaires by a _ convincing

a Peewee game Friday},

This part of the assembly had to be performed in an enclosed case filled with nitrogen and hy- drogen. Through lined openings in the case, hands encased in lead -lined asbestos gloves low- ered the radioactive material into place.

It was sealed the next mor- ning. The scientists had worked hardly without pause for 18 hours. Then it was delivered to the Atomic Energy Commission.

With the use of polonium 210, bhe atomic energy should be half dissipated in 138 days. If cerium 144 were used, Marmat said, half of the power would be expended in about 10 months. But with plutonium 238, its half-life would extend through about 90 years. The device now is generating about 2.5 watts. Fully fuelled, it could put out five watts.

7-4 score in a well played game. Scoring for the winners were R. Solomon with 3, C. David with a pair, H. Stevens and A. Mac- Swain each with a single.

The losér’s goals. were netted by A. Jamiesoa, A. Ferron, L. Balderson and B. Paquet.

In the second game, the Georgetown girls defeated the Murray Harbor girls 2-1. George- town. goals were scored by EF | David and A. David. The -visit-

ors lone counted was acted by V. White.
