Courses at Bureau of
Standards
Among many others, the following chemical courses are to be given for the school year 1948-49 at the National Bureau of Standards, Washington, D. C : petrographic microscope methods, fundamental properties of high polymers, chemical thermodynamics, phase equilibria, technology of organic and fibrous materials—textiles, cellulose, and special topics—and principles of mineralogy. General courses include administration for scientists, and mathematical symbolism and terminology.

SOLKA-FLOC
the number of graduate students who have been selected for training under the AEC program during the 1948-49 academic year. Additional awards will be made later in the year and next spring. Below is a list of those receiving grants for work in the chemical field.

There are times when liquid must be present but not in its normal liquid form and that's when highly absorbent SOLKA-FLOC SW-40 shines. Pure —white —soft —strong and very absorbent wood cellulose fibers—these qualities make SOLKA-FLOC SW40 ideal as an absorbent carrier for liquids. Write for samples.
