"Scented sub. Sank sami-e." With this bantering take-off on the famous World War II mes- sage, LIS. naval officers quiefly c onfirmed reports that a revolu- tionary new technique of locat- ing enemy submarines by sameil ia now being ulsed hy the fleet. Scientists cail the technique. "oderiferous homingý on ionized ztimuli"; more simply, Navy mnen calliti "sniffer gear." Tht siffer gear takes advantage of a basic weaknmess of subs equîp.- ped with snorkel breathing. de- vices (an estimated 200, or 40 Ver cent of Russîa's underwater Ileet), -which expel gas exhaust fumes i n f o the atmosphere. Slung on the wings of hun-ter- killer aircraf t, anif fer gear makes eontinuous chemical analy 'ses of the air, mouch like th7e exhaust- gas analyzer ihat garage mena use when iuning up auto-mob).lc engines. Reportedly, the s ce ni of a ïhnorkelîng su.b can be picked un ,c-veral miles away and, since ,-the fumes linger downiwind for as long as onie hour after thv zub has glided by under wateî. Then, the airplane's radar would swing into action to find oui if there are surface ships in the viciniiy thai could be the sourur"' of the oil or d1iesel fumes. If siot, the usual ae-erhpati- tern would begîn and convenl- tional deteci ion systems would come into play fo pinpoint the targct. The de vi ce is ineffectîve againsi nuclear -powered sub-s which, ihanks f0 air-regeneraf- ing equipmneni owered by A- electricity, can c r ui se under- -eas withoui surfacing for wee-ks- i a tirne. Against the day when,_ ihe Reds have nuclear subs, thLe Navy is also developing heaý,t- seeking devices andi radiation sniffers to track the mosi clu- sive weapon in naval history.- Prom NEWSWEEK Lotteries In West Germany The defense lawyer scurried &cross the packed courtroomi the West German ciiy of Itann- over and, wiih a gallani sweep, krissed t h e plainiiff's hand. uPlease don't be angry wiih us," lhe asked widowed Frieda Weii- kxe, 54 "This is merely a tec- iiicality." But the "technicaliiy" -- Fruu Wenke'a suit claimàrg ahe had, been bilked oui of her 500,000 Deutsche -mark ($120,000) top prize in the national lottery - was the hottest case in West Germany.

When a market ardener was vccused of slackness in picking tomnatoes, he indignantly replied that he was working as hard am ever. Special tests showed that he ýwas right. But as the man was colour blind hie coufld not tell when the tomatoes were turning from green to orange-red, wheni they should be picked. New research into colour blindness shows that every year it becomes commioner in men than in women. Every single colour appears as a shade of grey to the person who is completely colour blind. An eyesig-ht specialist who in f orty-five years tested the sight of more than 100,000 railwuy workers said that more thari a million people in Britain alone were colour blind. He said that otherwise normal persons hadj 2,000 times described' to hlm pillar-box red as bright green. Somne people are colour blind in only one eye. Whiie the righlt eye may see red as red, the left Fees it as blackc or g-rey. Most of us have one eye that secs Lolours mlore brighltlyv than the other.
