Piccard, Son Set New Depth Record In Sea Descent ISLE OF PONZA, Italy (UP)—Prof. August Piccard, 69, first man to explore the stratosphere more than 10 miles above the earth, descended almost two miles into the sea yesterday to set a new depth record. Piccard and his son, Jacques, dived 10,334 feet in a strange banana-shaped undersea craft that the Swiss-born scientist invented for exploring the ocean depths. The Piccards beat the previous record of 6890 feet by 3444 feet, almost a mile. He and his son remained in the oddly-shaped ship two hours and 18 minutes before releasing ballast and ascending to the surface. Piccard said before submerging that he and his son hoped to reach a depth of 12,460 feet in the Tyrrhenian "Ditch," an underwater "Grand Canyon" 18 miles outheast of this penal island. They decided, however, to return to the surface after almost reaching the two-mile mark. Newsmen and Italian navy men aboard accompanying boats cheered loudly as Piccard's $80,000 craft, the Trieste, popped up to the surface. Piccard first gained fame in 1901 when he ascended 53,169 feet into the stratosphere in his gondola. Three years later two American Army captains broke his mark with a 72,376-feet ascent. READ AND WEEP BIRMINGHAM, Ala. — A closet in the U.S. District Court judge's office here yielded old newspapers used as evidence in cases in the early 1800's. One advertised men's suits for $5 and $6. Another advertised farms for sale for $1,000. Science By DELOS SMITH (United Press Science Editor) NEW YORK — An ultra-modern sewing machine will lay down 5,000 stitches in a minute, but in a few minutes at such speed the needle is heated by friction to some 500 degrees, Fahrenheit. Some of the new synthetic fiber will melt at high temperatures, and one now much in use starts melting when the heat gets up to 250 degrees. What to do—slow the machine? But if you slow the machine, you'll rubbing against the fabric and creating more heat friction. The laboratory has been through many headaches with the synthetic fibers. Heat was only one. Another is their elasticity. When a needle displaces the fibers, the spring back to their original positions when the needle is with drawn. The result used to be, more often then not, a "puckered" seam. Needle design again was the answer, but it came only after long studies with imposingly complicated instruments that, among other things, permit a precise analysis of the way a needle striking 5.00 times a minute penetrates an material.

Howard, Sales and Service, 130 S. Lemon Phone 2238 NEW YORK — An ultra-modern sewing machine will lay down 5,000 stitches in a minute, but in a few minutes at such speed the needle is heated by friction to some 500 degrees, Fahrenheit. Some of the new synthetic fiber will melt at high temperatures, and one now much in use starts melting when the heat gets up to 250 degrees. What to do—slow the machine? But if you slow the machine, you'll mess up the needle trades. High production rate is the only way to offset high labor costs. One of the most effective and least known of industrial science laboratories deals with such problems as this one. It is the Seam Research Laboratory in the heart of Manhattan's bustling garment district. The problem of friction heat was solved in several ways. One was to add a gadget to the machine that keeps the flying needle bathed in a stream of cool air. Seam Trouble, Too Another was to redesign needles. One new needle has a barely preceptible shoulder just below the "eye." It is the last part of the needle to penetrate the fabric, and enlarges the hole just enough for the needle to withdraw without many headaches with the synthetic fibers. Heat was only one. Any other is their elasticity. When a needle displaces the fibers, the spring back to its original positions when the needle is withdrawn. The result-used to be, more often then not, a "puckered" seam. Needle design again was the answer, but it came only after long studies with imposingly complicated instruments that, among other things, permit a precise analysis of the way a needle striking 5,000 times a minute, penetrates and material. There are instruments to measure the tensile strength of seams and this, in certain garments, can be very important, as William D. Emmerson, the laboratory chief was quick to joint out with a graphic example. Home Sewer Benefits "The thread and seam suitable for one of Marilyn Monroe's slinky evening gowns wouldn't do at all for one of Esther Williams' bathing suits," he said. "The stress and strain would murder it." The laboratory deals only with industrial sewing, although its findings filter down to the house wife who makes her own dresses. But her problems generally are on a different order. She have no use for a 5,000-stitches-a-milinute machine—and she might sew her fingers if she had one. They require high skill and close concentration. But industrial sewers keep humming. Last year, problems came from the needle trades of 2 countries. It tested the sewing qualities of many of the new synthetic fibers before they were offered in bolt goods form for the home sewer. The laboratory is operated by the Singer Sewing Machine Company—and to give you an idea of how complex seam problems can be, Singer manufactures 3,000 different kinds of sewing machines and 8,400 types of needles—each machine and each needle designed for a particular purpose.

HOLLYWOOD HOLLYWOOD (UP)—Red Skelton, who staged a successful come back on television this week, vowed today he's taking his work easier this season because his "double stomach" is back where it started. Last season the red haired comic landed in the hospital for a serious operation to make his two stomachs into one. But when he returned to work last spring, "I started getting sick again and now my stomach is back to where it was." "I'm giving up radio and movies for the time being, at least six months, and I'll take things easier. I'll still do prattfalls, but not so many or so hard." After his second illness last spring, he quit TV and his filmed shows were re-released. But his ratings took a nosedive, the critics said, because his antics were on film. So this year he's switched to CBS with a live show, only not as wearing on him as before. So far the critics have applauded his different format of more heart and less slapstick. "Here at CBS they give me more time," Skelton explained. "Before I was on the show all the time. But now between sketches there are bits of business worked in that give me time to change my costumes and not hurry so much." Red amuses his audiences, on and off the TV screen, with gag routines poking fun at the movies. But he insists he's not anti-films since he's quit MGM and temporarily shelved his screen career.

Thursday, October 1, 1953 ANAHEIM (CaL) BULLETIN — 11 Foreign Crude Oil Refining to Jump WASHINGTON (UP)—Crude oil refining capacity in free nations outside the United States will jump 40 per cent by the end of 1955 over levels at the end of 1951. The Petroleum Administration for Defense (PAD) has predicted. Acting Deputy PAD Administrator Rea Jackson said yesterday a survey by the agency showed that capacity will rise from 4,840,000 to 6,346,000 barrels daily during that period. Far East refineries will increase their capacities by 77 per cent. cent; burglary 9437, up, 9.4 per cent; theft other than autoes 12,630, up, 7.5 per cent, and auto theft 2531, up, 23.3 per cent. and European refiners will show a 47 per cent rise, the survey showed. Western hemisphere refiners plan a 28 per cent increase, while no major expansion is expected in the Carribean area. Jackson said the survey includes "the most complete and accurate figures on foreign refineries ever assembled." He said PAD chose the 1951 date for the study because Iran's refineries, rated at 500,000 to 550,000 barrels daily, were lost to free world trade that year.
