" ANYTHING TO OBLKUC The tired store clerk had pulled down blanket after blanket until only one was left on the shelf. Then the customer remarked, "Well, I don't really want to buy anything today. I was only looking for a friend." , "Well, madam," said the exasperated clerk, "I'll take down the last one if you think he's in it." 1 Untftrplfcf OivrityiMiftt Rugged electron tubes are indispensable wherever electronic equipment Is used under severe conditions of vibration shock, or acceleration. Important in the development of such tubes are methods of testing for sturdiness and durability. These methods are now being studied and developed st the National Bureau of Standards as part of a comprehensive tube ruggedization program under the direction of I. L. Cher rick of the bureau's electron tube laboratory. One phase of the project consists of a survey of the actual operating conditions for electron tubes in various kinds of commercial, industrial, and military application^. ; This study provides a practical i basis for the design of test equip- | ment to simulate the hazards of j actual use. j In addition to working out ade- ; quate test methods* the bureau is ; developing new kinds of rugged 1 tube's. The design of these tubes j is based on an analysis of the ways in which ordinary tubes fail under , test or in service. A detailed knowledge of operating conditions and j tube failure is thus a useful guide ' to the design of tubes that will be ; Strong • enough to operate properly under severe ' mechanical abuse. ; Some tubes may have to withstand j great extremes of temperature as • well, but in any case the mechan- : ical design of Ct rugged tube is I Strictly governed by the required | electrical properties. I The bureau's facilities for testing ! the ruggedness of electron tubes now include vibration apparatus, mcchanical resonance testers, highimpact shock machines, and highspeed centrifuges'. Some tests are i conducted with typical electrical potentials applied to the tube elements so that noise modulation, short circuits, and other effects £an be easily studied. Destructive field i conditions can be reproduced - through the proper choice of vibra^ tiOn, impact, and acceleration tests. fceeerg Temperatares According to the U. S. weather ibureau, the highest temperature , ever recorded was 13t degress F., i recorded at Azizia, Libya. North j Africa, on Sept. 13, 1922. The record low, of BO degrees below zero ' F., was registered on Feb. t a6d ?4 at Verkhoyansk, Siberia.
