A ballistic test range with magnetical suspension and solenoid drive was in development at the Ballistische Versuchsanstalt, Gatow and Goettingen, Germany, under the direction of Dr. Schardin.
The story on sleep teaching in our tale has been based on work conducted by Max Sherover, president of the Bingusphone Institute, and experiments by Dr. C.E. Elliot, University of North Carolina.
The electro-encephalograph (brain wave recorder) was pioneered by Prof. Hans Berger, Psychiatric Institute at the University of Jena, Germany and Dr. E.D. Adrian, world-famous neurologist, Cambridge University, England. Modern experiments were conducted by Dr. C.E. Elliot, University of North Carolina.
Use of algae for production of fats, sugars and proteins was pioneered by Sam Ruben, University of California. After Ruben's death his work was continued by Drs. Melvin Calvin and Andrew Benson. Dr. Herman A. Spoehr of the Carnegie Institution's Division of Plant Biology at Palo Alto, California, recently succeeded in developing a species of algae containing 85 percent fat. Dr. Spoehr believes in utilization of algae for mass production of fats.
