Dangerous spot. Washington, D.C., Dec. 18. Dr. L.H. Adams, Director of the Geological Laboratory of the Carnegie Institution, is standing in what might be a dangerous position should the little steel drum in the cabinet [next to] him explode. In this apparatus the scientists study the behavior and properties of artificial rock under tremendous pressure, a pressure greater than that generated in the breech of the cannon. From these studies is learned something of the behavior of rocks at great depths, 12/18/37

Archbishop Francis J. Spellman of New York, on his recent tour of North African battlefronts, said mass for the men at the Fifty-seventh Fighter Group of the United States Army Ninth Air Force. This Air Force group is located "somewhere in Tunisia" and they are the boys who scored the biggest victory in the history of aviation, knocking almost 100 Axis transports and fighters out of the skies on one engagement. The archbishop held mass in a plane revetment at the Fifty-Seventh fighter base. The altar was set up and mass held on the spot. He said mass whenever and wherever there were boys who were interested in hearing one. Attendants at the mass were Major C.H. Logue, Catholic priest from Cleveland, Ohio, and Capptain J.E. McCarrity, Paulist priest from New York City and Air Force chaplain. They are seen in some of the pictures
