6t 4t.o REFLUX STILLfor pure distillation

THE Castle Reflux Still produces approximately10 gallons of pyrogen-free distillate per hour, witha greater degree of purity than any other standardapparatus or process. It is completely automaticand is constructed with evaporator for quick, easycleaning when necessary.

The Castle Reflux Principle permits partial purifi-cation of the water even before it gets to the evap-orating chamber. Overflow deconcentrating tubeprevents concentration of solids in evaporatorwhich has 27-inch height and baffle design to pre-vent contamination of condenser by foaming orsplashing. It operates on the Reflux Principle inwhich the primary condenser returns one quarterof the vapor . . . particularly the larger particles. . . to the evaporator and only the finest vaporpasses over to the secondary condenser producingthe final condensate.For further details of the Castle Reflux Still,write: Wilmot Castle Co., 1212 University Ave.,Rochester 7, N. Y.

This new, improved Stokes Patented(McLeod type) Vacuum Gage pro-vides rapid (2 to 5 seconds) readingswithin the micron range with perma-nent accuracy under all conditions. It

does not require calibration againstother gages and retains its accuracyin the presence of all gases includinghydrogen, and condensable vapors in-

cluding water and oil.These gages are compact, rugged,convenient to use as portable instru-ments or on fixed mountings. Theyare widely used in physics, organic andphysical chemistry laboratories and by

A NEW A.A.A.S. SYMPOSIUM

CANCER9

This volume, comprising the papers and discussions presented at theAAAS-Gibson Island Conference on Cancer in the summer of 1944, records inlarge measure the status of cancer research at the time the conference was held.The conference extended through five days for the presentation of papers andfor formal and informal discussions, in the light of which the original contri-butions were revised and recorded discussions were edited. A total of 95 spe-cialists contributed to the conference, of whom 79 were present in person.

The program of the conference consisted of five groups of papers as follows:I. The Virus Approach (five principal papers and four supplementary

notes, 107 pp.)IT. Carcinogenesis (seven principal papers, 62 pp.)

III. Enzymes (five principal papers, 8.3 pp.)IV. Diet (two principal papers and one note, 38 pp.)V. Chemotherapy (four principal papers and two notes, 43 pp.)

MAMMARY TUMORS IN MICE9

This A. A. A. S. Symposium was prepared by members of the staff of theNational Cancer Institute and published in March, 1945. In it attention isconcentrated upon one particular type of cancer in one particular species, in thebelief that such an approach avoids the dangers of drawing conclusions byanalogy from one type of malignant tumor to another and from one species toanother, while revealing the magnitude and complexity of the cancer problemas a whole.

4/a/l~effera/e15/n~rINTERNATIONAL MODEL PR-i

The latest development in Refrigerated Centrifuges, the InternationalModel PR-i offers the laboratory analyst practically all of the advan- *ltages of the larger permanent type installations plus portability. Cen-trifuge and compressor are combined in one attractive cabinet mountedon casters, and both units are operated from a single cord and plugwhich can be connected to the ordinary lighting circuit.

Constant temperatures plus or minus 20 can be maintained, and usa.ble accessories illustrated here include the multispeed attachment andhigh-speed heads for six 7 ml. tubes or four 25 ml. tubes at 18,000 lIR.P.M., conical angle heads for 15, 50 and 100 ml. tubes at speedsup to 5,000 R.P.M., the four-place pin type head for 250 ml. bottles at2,600 R.P.M., as well as the conventional horizontal tube carryingheads. The compressor is of ample capacity to cool the interior of theguard bowl to 320 F. or lower with any of this equipment operating atmaximum speed and a room temperature of 800 F.

Although not previously announced, the Model PR-I has already beensupplied to Army, Navy and civilian laboratories, and has been suc.-cessfully used in research on the chemistry of the influenza bacillus.The features of the machine will at once suggest countless applications,and complete details will gladly be furnished on request.Width 28" Length 44" Height 42" Weight 850 Ibs.

An Eastman Spectroscopic Plate

of Extreme Resolving Power

is plate is known as Eastman Spectroscopic Plate, Type649. It is normally supplied with GH sensitizing and with

antihalation backing. The resolving power is at least 1000 linesper millimeter. The plate can also be obtained unsensitized(Class 0) with lower speed and contrast.When results of higher contrast are required and extreme

resolution is not paramount, the use of the Eastman Spectrascopic Plate, Type 548-GH (resolving power, over 500 lines per

millimeter) is recommended.Both of these high resolution plates have low stain charac-

teristics. Further information will be supplied on request.

SPENCER MICROSCOPES BRING NEW PRECISION

to the Drill Press

With miniature drills as small as.0040" in diameter, the operator pro-duces Diesel engine injection spray tipswith openings barely visible to thenaked eye, yet held to remarkableclose tolerances.

To meet the need for such precisedrilling, National Jet Company manu-factures these small drills and is nowsupplying a precision drilling machineequipped with a Spencer StereoscopicMicroscope through which the opera-

tion can be observed. In fashioning tinydrills and inspecting various parts,many other "Stereoscopics" are used.

Providing greatly enlarged, clear-ly defined three-dimensional images,Spencer Stereoscopic Microscopes offeradvantages to all who must study smalldetails.
