A l s o f e a t u r e d a r e demonstrations of a set of mechanical hands hands used to handle radioactive materials in laboratories. Short lecture-demonstrations on atomic energy are given by a c o 11 e ge -1 rained manager. B e s i d e s t h e m a n a g e r , a m a i n t e n a n c e accompanies this exhibit. The scope exhibits exhibits t r a i n e d m e c h a n i c portable of this project can be gleaned from this fact: It will take six men two days to erect the dome and exhibit, and Hansen is lining up a science teacher or someone familiar with the nature of the exhibit to assume the responsibility of erecting and managing the project.
