COSMIC RAY STUDY
CONTINUES THIS YEAR
New York University is con
tinuing its cosmic ray project this
summer atop 14,006-foot Mt.
Wrangell.
Philip C. Bettler and Charles R.
Wilson, physicists at the Geophy
sical Institute at the University
of Alaska are assisting with the
project for the second year. Pro
ject leader is Dr. Serge A. Korff,
professor of physics at NYU. This
year he sent his assistant, Hugo
Neuburg, to make scientific ob
servations. The Bureau of Naval
Research is supporting the pro
ject.
The Aero-Medical laboratory at
Ladd Air Force Base is conduct
ing physiological experiments on
the mountain under leadership of
Robert Eisner. Both laboratory
cosmic ray project personnel will
be observed.
Cosmic rays come from outer
space and are greatly absorbed
by the earth’s atmosphere. Mt.
Wrangell’s peak is above more
than 40 percent of the earth’s at
mosphere. The rays are more ap
parent in this rarefied atmos
phere which offers better possib
ilities for study.

available to Delegate Bartlett
this week by the Post Office De

fices are being established in
Portland, Boise, Butte, Spokane
and Seattle.
Under the new plan, accord
ing to the Post Office Depart
ment, field personnel will be
delegated additional authority.
“The new regional and district

ployees, most of whom are in the
Postal Service now,” Delegate
Bartlett was informed.
