Dr. Miklos Hatenyi, Hungarian-born research engineer at the Westinghouse electric and manufacturing company. He made various types of nuts and bolts, attached weights to the bottom of each model and heated them to "freeze" the stress lines, then cut slices from the center of each model and photographed the thin plastic sections to show which nut or bolt divided the "pull" among threads

Government scientist cools water to -6ʺ without freezing it. Washington, D.C., Aug. 9. The belief that water freezes at 32 degrees fahrenheit has been blasted by Dr. N. Ernest Dorsey, scientist of the National Bureau of Standards. Neither does all water freeze at the same temperature. These discoveries have been made by Dr. Dorsey after experimenting with 37 specimens of water taken from lakes, canals, and other sources. He has cooled water until it was minus 6 degrees fahrenheit that is, 38 degrees colder that the so called freezing point of 32 degrees. Yet it remained liquid, 8/9/38

Ask the man who repairs one, and he'll tell you to turn the freeze control back to normal after quick-freezing ice-cubes or ice cream. If you leave it on high, foods will freeze and you'll waste electric current

Nothing wrong with these shelves. Shelves like these may be built in a well-ventilated cellar, cave, or closet where it is cool, but not cold enough to freeze, and where there is no strong light. They are wide enough, they are built of strong boards, and they are braced with sturdy supports. One hundred feet of twelve-inch shelving will hold five hundred jars. Notice the orderly arrangement of jars. All foods of one kind are together
