WHEN SCIENTISTS AT Z X
BELL TELEPHONE LAB
ORATORIES photograph an
apple, it s hard to tell which C 9
is the fruit and which is the (Vs- T^Jl
picture. The reason is a new I v
photographic process called
holography — three-dimcn- fl
sional pictures taken by laser I
light waves which show the
sides of the apple as well as
the front. M
The laser —a continuous '
beam of supremely pure light,
thousands of times brighter than sunlight — was first pro
duced in 1960 by three Bell Labs scientists. It has already
been used in medicine, space exploration, communications,
and heavy industrial manufacturing.

HOW MUCH CURRENT DOES IT TAKE TO OPER
ATE YOUR TELEPHONE? Some familiar comparisons:
it takes about 250 watts for your TV set to entertain you
with a favorite program, and 1,000 watts for your electric
iron to get hot enough to do the day’s ironing.
But 1/1000 of a watt carries your voice from one tele
phone to another. Amazing that, of all our modern elec
trical conveniences, the one that allows us to communicate
across town or around the world requires the least current
of all.
“Action Guys--Building America” is
the theme of the 1968 Scout Exposition,
which will be held in the Exhibit Hall
of Atlanta Civic Center May 25 from
2 to 10 p.m. This year’s production
is a booth-type show with more than
400 different exhibitions portraying Scout
ing in Action. Booths will feature de
monstrations and exhibits by Cub Packs,
Scout Troops and Explorer Units. Spe
cial stage shows and Little Theatre fea
tures will highlight individual acts by
various units. Tickets are available
from Cubs, Scouts or Explorers in your
neighborhood.

VA Informs
Home Buyers
On Loans
With spring in the air, the
Veterans Administration today
offered advice to veterans who,
like thousands of other Ameri
cans, are thinking about buying
or selling a home.
While Korean War veterans and
certain World War II veterans
are still eligible under the G.I.
home loan program, the vast ma
jority of veterans Interested In
securing a G.I. loan to buy a
home are younger men.
Os the 394,776 G.I. home loan
applications received by the VA
during the past two years, 302,
211, or nearly 77 per cent, were
from men who served after Jan.
31, 1955. Last month the figure
climed to about 85 per cent with
16,270 of the 19,112 applications
from veterans who served after
the end of the Korean War.
For the veteran who Is think
ing of selling his home by al
lowing the purchaser to carry
his G.I. loan, the VA reminds
him that he should protect him
self by getting a release of lia
bility from the VA.
Releases are issued if the
new buyer - veteran or non
veteran - is a good credit risk
and assumes all of the veteran’s
loan obligations.
The VA points out, however,
that a release from liability does
not restore the veteran’s eligi
bility for another G.I. loan. Eli
gibility is restored only if VA
is no longer liable to the lender
on the guaranty and if the vet
eran disposes of the home for
certain acceptable reasons, gen
erally because he is forced to
sell because of transfer or ill
ness.
Homes repossessed by the VA
are sold to veterans and non
veterans alike without regard
to race, color or creed.
Further information on VA
homes and G.I. home loans may
be obtained from local VA of
fices.
