Predict viii Oi U.S. Salellile

WASHINGTON 4APl- Scientists announced Friday that the first United States satellite will travel along a path 5.000 miles wide fol- lowing the Equator.

That means that in the United States the satellites may be ob- served at points as far norlli as New York and the upper coast of California. The flights will carry them between latitude 40 degrees north and 40 degrees south.

This, said an announcement by

officials of the international Geo- physical Year which is directing the satellite program, "will permit the scientists of 8 large number of nations to take measurements and to make observations." The International Geophysical Year, from July 1. 1957, through December. 1958, has been set aside under sponsorship of the interna- tional Council of Scientific Unions for extensive studies in the earth sciences. Information obtained in national projects is to be sharedl by some 40 participating countriesl including Russia. The satellite pro-' Eject is part of the U. S. contribu- ion.

800 MILES UP

In its egg-shaped orbit, the satel- lite will be at an altitude of 200 to 800 miles. It most likely will be visible at the low altitudes. Sci- entists expect later to say exactly when it might best be seen.

In event anyone wonders how a thing as small" as the first satel- lite-about 30 inches-can travel a path 5.000 miles wide, this is the explanation: It will follow an eliptical orbit above the rotating earth and thus its path will range back and forth between the two latitudes of 40 degrees, north and south.

The announcement noted that the satellites should be observable in the Un.ited States. Central and South America. Africa. Southern Europe. the Balkans and Middle E:st. part of the Soviet Union, Pakistan. China. Japan. Indonesia. Australia and New Zealand.

Huge Tidal Power Project

l ST. MALO. France tReutersl--- jFrance's national electricity com-

pany plans to build a power station near here using the movement of tides to produce electricity.

Work on the tidal power station cannot start until the government has drawn up a bill for the pro- ject and obtained parliamentary approval. But plans are well ad- vanced.

The scheme calls for damming of the estuary of the River Rance. which reaches the sea between the , , ' Bretonvacalion resorts of Dinard and St. Main.

The estuary is W: miles across at its mouth. but the dam will be built farther up where it narrows to 700 yards.

LARGE TIDE MOVEMENTS

The power station will be driven by some of the biggest tide moie- ments ln the world. There is a dif- ference of 7 feet between high and low tide.

The power station will be in a tun- nel inside the dam which will be 150 feet wide at the base and will need and estimated 500.000 cubic yards of concrete.

The work will take about eight years. Details of the cost will not be available until the government has tabled a bill in Parliament on the project. No indication of the date when such a bill might be tabled is yet available.

According to present plans. the power station will generate 208.000 kilowatts, providing power for fac-

Planned By French Gov'l

tories in the region.

NEW GENERATORS

The dam will be equipped with 20 turbine generator units of a revolutionary kind.

In the conventional hydroelectric arrangement. the electrical gener- ator is situated above the turbine and clear of the water flowing through. in the new units. turbine and generator are enclosed in the same shell and placed directly in the water current. An oil bath stops water entering the generator.

The new unt weights 15v. tons. less than hal the usual turbine generators. and can be fitted in its channel in one day. compared with two months for the normal kind.

Specially for tidal power stations. it needs only a 16- foot fall of water to work. The unit was invented by mining engineer Jean Guimbal, professor at the National Mining School at St. Eti- enne. after experimenting with turbines and generators suitable for a low fall of water in rivers. Some of the new units already are in use at Castet in the French Pyrennees.

The (hm is not expected to affect the scenic beauty of the Rance estuary. With all equipment inside, it will look merely like a dike. Meanwhile. the effect of the dam on water and slit in the estuary is being studied with the aid of small-scale models by a Grenoble firm of contractors.

Quebec's Annual Winter Carnival -Bonfire Early

QUEBEC (CF) -. What with unseasonab' mild weather al- ready playing havoc with Quebec's annual winter carnival. plans for the official bonfire have gone up in smoke-literally.

On the Plains of Abraham 10.000 spruce and fir trees were piled high. in readiness for the big show Saturday night. Then pranksters got busy with gasoline -and matches and. whoosh. the whole thing went up 24 hours ahead of schedule.

Firemen from two stations and police radio cars raced through the city. There was no use trying to do anything. The flames were roaring skyward and youngsters were jumping about in wild delight and singing the lilting carnival song.

NO COMPLAINT

Police said Saturday they hadn't received o' any official complaint from the carnival organization and didnt plan investigating the affair further. '

"I don't know what kind of charge you could bring against these pranksters. especially if

put on by the girls and the maze marching of the juvenile girls. Other h is included calisthen- ics by the ”prep" boys as well as tumbling. and action on the par- allel bars and hampollne. (mour- ful costumes added greatly to the over-all performance.

children are involved." said a police inspector. Mild weather throughout Jan- uary has been something of a con- ' disaster for Carnival activ- ities. City streefs and" sidewalks were left almost bare of snow, and nearby ski resorts have been hard hit. . - The international dog-sled derby had to be postponed for the second straight -day Saturday but got under way Sunday after a light snowfall overnight.
