Norway's First Atomic Pile -- Chemical research worker Mrs. Mary Lykhas experimenting with an isotope mixture. Experiments are carried out behind a protective lead wall, which is built up to any desired size with interlocking bricks. A mirror reflects operations.Atom physicists from all over the world will be present here on November 28th for the official opening of an atomic pile establishment, the first built by a country outside the great powers. This atomic pile will be mainly used for the production of radio active isotopes, so valuable for medical treatment and research work. Norway formerly imported the is topes from England; now she will export them herself. November 28, 1951.

He Sells Silence -- Douglas Smart and an assistant test a ventilator duct in their laboratory. Restoring quiet in a noisy world is the unusual occupation of Mr. Douglas Smart. As one of the few architectural acoustical engineers in Britain, he often finds himself a keeper of the peace. Once he was called in to treat a council house after rebellious tenants, demanding privacy, had refused to pay rent. In his 20 years' experience, Mr. Smart, an Aberdonian, has muffled everything from the cry of ne

British Contributions To Tropical Health -- Every year expeditions go from Liverpool to posts in many areas of the tropics, bringing back with them creatures which carry diseases, so that these may be studied with all the facilities available in the home laboratories. Professor R. M. Gordon (left) in March 1951 visited the Anglo-Egyptian Sudan, where he worked on diseases such as bilharzia, prevalent in the area. On his return he brought various carriers of disease, including the larvae of sand flies, one of which he is here removing from its cage for examination. The sandfly is the carrier of Kala-azar and tropical sore to man. With him (right) is Dr. O'Rourke, who is leaving shortly to take up a post as research officer to the Canadian Government in the northern lumbering areas, where flies are a great nuisance to workers.
