■ And Your Old Tires
PARIS (EE)—French engineers
have just started wnui is
the first full-scale attempt to har-
ness the moon's tidal puh for elec-
tric power.
From time immemorial the
moon's gravity has attracted the
sea, pulling it out its bed, over
the beaches and up the estuaries.
But as the moon continues in its
orbit around the earth, the water
it h&s attracted Blips uselessly back
into the sea.
Engineers have long dreamed of
harnessing the vast power of the
tides. So far little has been done.
But now the big French power
company, Electricite do France,
has started preliminary construc-
tion on its tidal power plant on the
Ranee Estuary, between Dinard
and St. Malo tn Brittany.
In Five Year*
The first job ts to build roads
and housing for the construction
crew. By December, Electricite of-
ficials will have received completed
plans for the dam and power plant
from competing designers.
Construction will start in earn-
est next spring, and officials hope
the first moon born kilowatt-hours
will be juicing Prance's electric
lines at the end of five years.
Engineers in many countries are
watching the French experiment.
If it works, they have a number of
estuaries that would be ideally
suited to similar projects.
French scientists have been
quietly working out the problems
involved at the Laboratoire Dau
phinois d'Hydraulitiut- at Gre nobel
They set up a small model of the
project to aid them in their en leu
fat ions.
One-way Deat
As the engineers see it, the estu-
ary will fill up at high tide. The
turbines will continue to mount
until it reaches a depth of 11.41)
meters (about 37 feet).
During this period of tiding the
turbines will not function.
After About three hours, when
the tide- has started to fall, the
water will be allowed to enter the
turbines. . The turbines will turn
until the level of the wafer in the
estuary is down to that of the sea.
Engineers said that for techni-
cal reasons it was not possible to
have the turbines turn both while
the tide was coming in and while
it was going out. They added that
this would give only about 30 per
cent more energy anyway.
The Ranee plant will have an
estimated power of 308.000 kilo
watts and will produce about 550.-
000.000 kilowatt-hours a year, of-
ficials said. The plant will consist
of 26 units, each composed of a
turbine of 14.000 centrivolts ond a
triphase alternator of 8.500 kilo-
watts.
TUESDAY, OCT. 5, lto4— Breckenridge American—S-A
in contributing to the restoration
of the Illinois poet's home as a
national shrine.
Burton sleeps beneath the sky.
•t< parks, and sometimes in barns
on his jaunts. His food is milk and
bread; his clothing a corduro>
shirt and rumpled grey trousers
. . . and he hasn't a care in the
world.
His fiance in Lorain, O., wants
him to quit tioubadouring and en-
ter the real estate business, bat
Buitorc said:
'i want all the real estate, the
whole country, the sky."
Minstrel Strolls
To Tame Tides
for Poet, Lindsay
CINCINNATI, O. (RH)—A Lo
rain, O., steelworker turned troub
udour tramped around the nation
during the summer to interest
Americans in restoration of the
home of the poet, Vachel Lindsay,
in Springfield, III.
The minstrel is Burton Frye, 33,
who possesses a master's degree in
English from Miami University at
Oxford, O. Like Lindsey, Frye has
a song on his lips, poetry in his
heart and calluses on his feet.
"All people are poets at heart,
and this releases you of burdens
and worry, threats and taxes." he
said when he stopped off here on
his tour.
Every summer, Burton leaves
his work at a steel mill and follows
the open road with a guitar and
knapsack over his shoulder, sing
ing the ballads of the country and
its folk wherever he stops.
For this year's trek, he wrote
a ballad called "The Ballad of
"Vachel's Bridge." He hoped his
singing of it would interest people
