An exhibit designed to familia
rize visitors with the University
of Georgia’s recent and proposed
future research went on display
today in the Fine Arts Gallery in
connection with the annual Hon
ors Day program.
Dean George H. Boyd, the Uni
versity’s director of research, says
he believes it fitting that at the
time when student scholarship is
traditionally recognized, faculty
scholarship should also be cited.
A preview of the materials and
statements being assembled for
the exhibit indicates over 25
schools and departments engaged
in research ranging from statis
tical methods of quality control,
in the mathematics department, to
the study of undescribed fungi
causing a new disease in dogwood
and magnolia, in the department
of gant pathology.
veral texts and other books
have been prepared by the English
facuity during the past two years.
The same is true of political sci
ence, which has just completed a
text on American government,
Other political science investiga
tion deals with penal administra
tion and personnel programs in
selected cities.
The School of Home Economics
faculty is engaged in an investi
gation to determine the problems
and habits of women from 45 to
65 affecting the satisfactory selec
tion of clothes. The School of
Journalism, in cooperation with
the Georgia Press Association, is
preparing a history of Georgia
journalism. i L
A study of three rations for
dairy heifers in winter grazing is
under way in the department of
dairying. The department of agro
nomy, with 42 field experiments in
progress, .is studying the use of
sodium as a plant nutrient ele
ment. = ; T
The history department is also
highly productive in the book
field, with emphasis on Southern
research. Research in the depart
ment of modern foreign languages
is described as “a critical and ex
haustive investigation aimed to
ward discovery of new facts and
their correct interpretation.”
The department of archaeology,
with much recent work to its cred
it, is now in the process of exca
vating mounds near Woodstock,
which will soon be covered by‘
water of the Etowah River. Uni
versity botanists, with an herba
rium,of over 34,000 speciments, is
at work in the fields of taxonomy
and cytology.
The study of population and re
lated areas engages members of
the sociology faculty. The depart
ment of geography and geology is
attempting in its work to develop
strong Southeastern research,
coupled with the growth of inves
tigation outside the Southeast.
Physics is studying cosmic ra
diation, microwaves, and spectros
cog)y. Chemistry divides its work
into three categories — organic,
analytical and physical. Biology 1s
stpessing work on Avian malaria
parasites. {
Nervous habits of children, the
psychological effects of war upon
children, and conditioned reac
tion of dogs are among the psy
chology department’s varied work.
Music research consists of crea
tive composition and work in mu
sicology. Art, fine and applied,
devotes much time to creative
painting, ceramics, and weaving.
Many other schools and depart
ments, incliding the College of
Education, the School of Veterin
ary Medicine, and the department
of agricultural engineering, are
engaged in investigative activities. t

ON-FARM TRAINING
Enrollment of Georgia veterans
in the Institutional On-Farm
training program continued to
grow during April with 1,131 new
men entering classes during that
month, according to T. G. Walters,
state supervisor of agricultural
education.
Total enrollment in the program
on May 1 was 17,335 and many of
the veterans, especially those in
the first classes to be organized,
are completing their training. Mr.
Walters estimates that upwards of
a thousand trainees have already
been graduated.
The On-Farm program has
grown steadily in Georgia since it
was started in February, 1946.
Enrollment has becn limited by
the shortage of qualified teachers,
but more instructors are becoming
available and the number of vete
rans awaiting training is rapidly
decreasing.
Mr. Walters also cited the pro
gress which trainees have made
since entering the program. He
said 2,714 have purchased farms,
4,426 have bought tractors, 1,640
have built new homes, 2,615 have
painted their residences, 5,495

What's In A Lamp?
By VIVIAN BROWN
AP Newsfeatures Writer
So you think you know real
milch or Bristol glass. Or perhaps
you consider yourself a connois
seur of lustres, old English oil
lamps or Roman water carriers.
Well, you probably can be fooled.
But don’t despair, girls. So can
the experts.
It's all done with unintentional
sleight of hand by American glass
manufacturers who use European
glass blowers to copy antiques in
the finest detail, employing some
secrets that date back 2,000 years.

One manufacturer, Warren
Kessler, was startled to see a glass
lamp that had been turned out of
his Beth Page, L. 1., factory some
years before, resting cosily in an
antique shop with a fabulous price
tag on it. He says:
“Glass formula secrets are
handed down from father to son.
That is why in copying traditional
pieces we are manufacturing to
morrow’s antiques today. They
never go out of style.”
More and more glass workers
’ are being wooed to America all the
time, Kessler says. It was imported
putch and Polish glass workers
who established glass making as
our first American industry in
Jamestown in 1607. Italians brought
their artistry to Virginia in 1621,
but mainly they stuck to making
beads for trade with the Indians.
(In 1867 when James B. Lyon of
Pittsburgh took first prize for his
exhibit of pressed glass at the
Paris exposition, there were al
ready more than 100 glass fac
tories in America.)
Kessler’'s workers are Czecho
slovakian and Swedish. The
Czechs are specialists in Bohem
ian cased glass—an overlay glass,
usually a plain under layer with a
brilliant blue, red or amber outer
layer which is cut in crystal 3e
sign down to the under layer pro
ducing an unusual effect.
They also blow the sought-after
pale greens, yellows, pinks of
Bristol glass fame and do cen
turies-old hand decoration motifs
such as fleur-de-lis, four-leaf
clovers, polka dots and love birds
in just ‘the right detail. Kessler
says:
| “Glass blowers usually are not
weaned away to other fields. It
ttakes about 18 years for an ap
| prentice blowing in his spare time
| to become a blower. Venetian glass
]glowers, though they were given
i noble privileges, were kept on the
island of Murano to protect the
secrets. That procedure isn’t
necessary today,”
In his shop of 5 to 7 men, 100
pieces of glass are turned out a
day in a price bracket of from
$7.50 to S2OO depending on size,
color and decoration.

Kessler believes he is the only
American shop employing the
Czech method by which blowerg
stand up during the entire blowing
operation. Equipment of ancient
design is used—blowers five feet
long, cherry wood blocks for cyp
ping the blob of glass when i
comes out of the furnace, molds

European and American glass fac
tories for 30 years, designs his owp
molds—also a trade secret.
It takes about five minutes {q
blow glass for a lamp or vage
Then it wends its way through
annealing lears—a traveling cooler
which tempers the glass. Next it
is decorated with a motif becom
ing to its shape and period.
