J. W. RICHARDS*(South Bethlehem; Pa.).-The brass industry would find it very profitable to subsidize researches on the purely scientific determination of the thermophysical properties of the brasses. The data we need most in connection with the brasses are the vapor tension of the zinc from the brasses at different temperatures, the heat of combination of zinc With copper to form different kinds of brasses, and the latent heat of fusion of these brasses at the melting temperature.

AFTER the aforementioned subjects, I wish to speak to you of the method of welding bells that are cracked. This seems to me an ingenious thing, little used, but of great usefulness. Bells are cracked by the blows of too large a clapper or by excessive and forced ringing. This often cracks them at the rim, in the heart, or in some other place so that they lose their tone because of these cracks, and give no more

This paper assesses some of the critical factors that must be considered and addressed in the implementation of small computer systems for technical applications within a coal company. Aspects of hardware selection that are somewhat specific to the coal industry are discussed, and a table of potential areas of application is presented. The dilemma of internal software development is presented and a software development program based on a users group approach is outlined and discussed in detail.

The writer spent the month of November last in the La Plata mountains, Colorado, and the material portion of his observations, so far as they may be of general interest, is here recorded. The La Plata mountains lie northwest of the town of Durango. The California mining district is co-extensive with the mountains. They appear on the map as an isolated group; but an examination on the ground shows that they are the continuation of the great

The Youghiogheny and Ohio Coal Company expanded computer usage in the areas of engineering and production analyses by establishing a time-share terminal with Ohio University. Through the use of a graduate student on a consulting basis this relationship has enabled the company to gain computer programming capabilities in the scientific languages such as FORTRAN IV. The engineering function has benefitted from programs which dealt with mine power distribution and geostatistical analysis. Additionally, the University has modified a group of simulation programs developed by Virginia Polytechnic Institute so they are interactive enabling data entry from the remote terminal.
