24 SYHACUSE POST-STANDARD, June 21, 1971 FRONTIERS OF SCIENCE DUNAGIN'S PEOPLE byDunagin MARMADUKE bv Anderson Leeming THROUGH THt ASTEROID BtLl 1971 WILL MARK A SIGNIFICANT MILESTONE LEAVE THE SOLAR SYSTEM. I I THIS WILL BE PIONEER F. I CARING 60LBS rl.V BlliPlS Science for You 3y BOB BROwN PROBLEM: Conservation of angular momentum NEEDED: An object on the end of a string DO THIS: Whtil object around on the sLnng Extend a finger so lhat the string begins to wind up on il. The finger may be held stilt, yet the object will continue to whirl, faster and faster as the string is wound up on the until finally it touches the fingci WHY: The angular momentum is the mass of the object times the angular velocity (that is, the rate of times the length of the string squared. The angular velocity remains constant.

Since the ma-s of the object is constant, the rate of spin must increase as the string gets shorter to keep the product unchanging So, the object spins faster and faster. Lyons Den JERUSALEM: We were lunching in the cafeteria at Masada, the fortress King Herod once had used as a hideout, and where Eleazar and his zealots had made their historic stand, then Silled their loved ones rather than see them fall into the hands of the Romans Suddenly the cafeteria a man asked if he could photograph me. His name he said, Leonard Lyons was Kirschenbaum: "I saw you last in the Russian Tea Room at Kissinger's table. I'm surprised to see you here." My presence in Jerusalem was a surprise to mc, too. I'd been having a marvelous time in London, when the sudden invitation to Israel came.

The invitation was to see the filming of MGM's "Jerusalem, Jerusalem." Jt stars Nicol Williamson and Donald Pleasance, and featured are Daria Halprin of By-Leonard Lyons "Zabnskie Point" and Bruce Davison of "Last Summer." Williamson is accompanied by his fiancee, Jill Townsend, who played his dJiighter in "Inadmissible Evidenc John Osborne, who wrote that play, will have a role in "Je-tusalem, Jerusalem." A cameo role, that of a security officer, will be played by Jerusalem's Mayor Teddy Koliek. Williamson was asked wrhy he played his mod Hamlet at the White House. He explained: "It's the home of the President of the United States, and 1 like to do challenging things The streets of Jerusalem are remarkably clean. They're kept so with the help of a grant by Mollie Partus, the N.Y. designer, who gave Koltek a sum of money earmarked for street-cleaning purposes.

We stopped for drinks at the Intercontinental. A few days aftr the Six-Day War, I'd seen Mayor Koliek, who said he wanted me to spend the night in Terusalem I told him I couldn't, for I was due to visit the Golan Heights area the next morning. Koliek said he's make sure I'd get there In time. Besides, 1 said, it was impossible to get a hotel reservation in Jerusalem. Even your coffee tastes better in a new WHITEHOUSE KITCHEN Summer Sale!

A large percentage of these weddings and anniversaries come this month, since tunc still tlte most popular wedding month, with August next. Both kinds of bndes list a variety of practical things they would welcome, but, interestingly enough, sterling silver heads both lists. Many a teen-ager has picked her sterling pattern before she is out of high school, and with the help of dealers who keep a bride's choice on record for the benefit of relatives and -tneidc, even brides without millionaire fathers manage to collect complete sets of tableware from generous individual gifts.

The 1946 Dndes. however, quite often also specify they would be very pleased to recede sterling silver serving pieces. Frequently their own weddmg gifts provided none at all. The reason is that that year right after the war nobody was making silver serving pieces because of the silver shortage. So that's a hint to friends and families of 25th anniversary celebrators.

Another interesting fact is that these brides are not saying they want only silver. They say they like a variety of kinds of tableware plated silver, perhaps, stainless steel, even wood and plastic items for fun outdoors, etc. Because they hope for and dream of sterling does not mean won't make good use of oi her loss expensive things But somehow even very oung brides associate sterling silver with strong and abiding continuity. It lasts forever 'there aio, how e1. or, distinct and practical advantages to using sterling silver for handling food at the table.

First is its unique characteristic of almost automatic instant adjustment to temperature changes. A silver spoon of ice cream alters when it touches your mouth, the sll-i er becomTg pleasantly warm to the touch. And, because silver is a precious metal, a great deal of high skill and craftsmanship goes into the making of each piece. Handles are made to balance comfortably, weights are easy to handle, there is no unpleasant texture feel from a lork or spoon. Many brides-to-be ask if staling sihet is piacti-cal, or must it be babied, kept just for looks, etc.

Actually, it is best to use silver consistently. It improves with use, acquiring that beautiful soft patina, or finish, which collectors value. You wash it as would wash any tableware. It can go into the dishwasher, except for older types of knives with handles not designed for a dishwasher. To prevent possible cloudiness it best to take ir out, as with stainless steel or any other bright finish, and dry it by hand instead of letting the cycle of air-drying complete the process.

Silverware experts advise not to clean silver with chemical dips or with aluminum and soda solutions. Such cleansing leaves the silver shiny white and loses the shadings and darker tones of the design. And keep rubber away from it it tarnishes silver badly. Otherwise, use it. It likes being used.
