FRIDAY; DECEMBER 1944
Ship Ahoy
Lass Wednesday night, Salty V.
Twelve was busy as. usual—not
with Physics' or Math but with
getting something to be thankful
for. His search led him to the par
ties at the AO?i houSe or to Ac
acia house, which is now a dorm
for second-semester Freshman.
Salty must have had a good time
—lie sure had a big appetite on
Thursday—for food we mean.
Thanks, girls.
The good word seems to be that
a Navy dance will again come
this way. Although no details are
known at present, the date is to
be sometime in January. Also un
der-weigh are plans for individ
ual barracks parties. Bks. 20 has
set theirs for January 6.

NEW CAMERA "SHOOTS"
FLYING PROJECTILES
WHEN Army ballistics experts needed to photograph
speeding' rockets, 'scientists at .Bell Telephone Labora
tories built .the .special "ribbon-frame" camera. Their
experience curie from making high 'speed cameras to
study tiny movements in telephone equipment parts.
The new camera gets its name from the narrow slot
that exposes a ribbon of film at a speed of one ten
thousandth of a second. These "stills," taken on
ordinary' film, show a fast flying P-47 firing its under=
wing rocket.
This is an 'example of the many ways Bell System
research .is helping to provide better-weapons, better
equipment ..for ..war and-peacetime telephone • service.
