equipment and Dr. Herbert Insley,
head of the earth sciences depart
ment in Mineral Industries, is the
only man on campus who has test
ed these precious stones for the
National Bureau of Standards.
Before the war, skilled diamond
smiths in Holland ..and Belgium
drilled holes through the precious
gems and shipped the finished dia
monds, called dies, to the United
