The hero and hero ine were silhouetted against the backdrop, which had been lighted (or a sunset. As a chorus of “Wan dering Star” began, the ghosts of the miners appeared behind the scrim, which till this moment had not appeared transparent. The ef fect was magnificent. TAXI BE 3030 Perhaps we have sonnded too ar dent in our praise, but when you are home next time, and should the occasion arise, don't be too sophisticated to take a look at your local high school show. You may be pleasantly surprised. More than half a century after barbed wire and Pinkertons closed the brawling era of the trail driver and gun slinger, the Old West still inspires some 175 new books a year.

By removing this heat and putting it to work boiling water to make steam, atom- made electricity is produced. One of the men responsible for designing new, more efficient ways to remove heat from atomic reactors is 29-year-old Doctor Salo mon Levy — Design Analysis supervisor in the Atomic Power Equipment Department’s Reactor Engineering Unit. Levy’s Work Interestine, Vital To study this problem of heat transfer, G.E. recently constructed a heat-transfer sys tem. By electrically simulating the heat pro duced in a reactor, it is possible to determine the maximum rate at which heat can be re moved from a reactor to make steam. Dr. Levy conceived the idea of building this complex system, designed it and super vised its construction. At present. Levy works with this system to study new prob lems of heat transfer and fluid flow encoun tered in atomic power plants. 25,000 College Graduates at General Electric When Salomon Levy came to General Electric in 1953, he akeady knew the kind of work he wanted to do. Like each of our 25,000 college-graduate employees, he was given his chance to grow and realize his full potential. For General Electric has long be lieved this: Whenever fresh young minds are given the freedom to make progress, every body benefits—the individual, the company, and the country.
