Mother-Scientist One of Few Radio Astronomers By JOHN B.4CNOX BEDFORD. Mass. (AP) Dr. Nannielou H. Dieter living proof that a woman can be a housewife, a mother and an astronomer, too.

Furthermore, she is one of the world's relatively few radio astronomers. A research assistant at Harvard University, she is now a full-time member of the staff of the Electronics Research Di rectorate. Air Force Cambridge Research Laboratories at Hans corn Field here. Besides her No. 1 project, bringing up daughters Amy 9 and Nan 3, she has kept busy determining positions of transmitting satellites both optically and by radio, and negotiating Air Force contracts in Europe and Chile for setting up tracking cameras.

How does attractive Dr. Dieter, just turned 35, manage to combine her multiple roles? She says it's not very easy, and yet it's worth it and she loves it. "I'm just fortunate that I'm in a line of work that pays well enough so I can afford a housekeeper five days a week. I'm afraid some other women in an artistic or nther less well-paying occupation might not be able to do it." For the five business days of the week, the housekeeper looks after the Dieter family home in nearby Lexington and cares for the 3-year-old daughter. She remains on the job until Mrs.

Dieter comes home at 5 p.m. "Of course, all this wouldn't be possible," she adds, "if it weren't for the cooperation of my husband; he has been a big help. So I have every evening and weekend with my family. Actually, she says, the arrangement is ideal. "We are both happy to be home at the end of the day.

It is such a complete change from what we have been doing all day. And since he is an electronics engineer, our interests are very similar." Her husband, Carlisle L. Dieter, works with the Air Forces' Geo- physics Research Directorate a Hansom Field. An astronomer's lecture during her undergraduate days at Gouch er College in Baltimore, he hometown, stirred her interest From a major in mathematics she ranged into such abstrac fields as solar physics and quan turn mechanics. Her Ph.

D. came from Radcliffe. What's radio astronomy al about? For a long time, astronomers had only one window through which to study the vast universe-the little range of light we can see with our eyes--from red to violet. Only in recent years have astronomers found another win dow--one through which they can pick up short radio waves from objects and materials in space. Radio telescopes can pick up radiation that cuts through both interstellar dust and the earth's thick atmosphere which limit observations by optical telescopes.

It is estimated that the nation's newest radio telescope i erected in West Virginia will have an observation range of 38 billion light years, almost 20 times as great as that of the biggest optical telescope. A light year is the distance light, traveling 186,000 miles a second, will travel in one year. Although D. Dieter is interested hi all types of astronomy, she concedes the radio kind has one very special advantage over optical observation. It can be conducted in the daytime.

UW Specialist Tells How to Keep Home Cool A few changes in furnishings can bring a cool look to rooms on hot, humid days, suggests Jane Graff, home furnishings specialist at the University of Wisconsin. Changes may be many or few, expensive or not. This depends on how much of a change you need or want.

What makes seem warm? Heavy draperies, pile carpets or nubby textures may do it. Warm or dark colors like browns, golds, effect. Big or reds may add to the changes, of course, will bring big results. Smooth cotton or chintz slipcovers for one or more chairs gives a cooler look. Blues and greens are the coolest GERMANN'S Summer Specials! on Diamonds, Jewelry and Silverware END SATURDAY colors, but white or off-white is pleasant and may fit more easily into the color scheme.

Other colors that are light or clear and bright may suit the purpose Draperies can be replaced by sheer or semi-sheer curtains or I bamboo blinds. Just for the summer, outdoor furniture may be used in some rooms. An inexpensive fiber rug may be a good buy. It can give the same effect as cooling grass or straw Remember these purchases any room is declutter it. Nothing looks coaer than clutter.

Removing everything except a few necessities will also cut down on summer dusting time. Check rooms for hot spots and try to remove them. Perhaps small pillows or a chair seat could be recovered-in a cooler color and fabric. A splash of plain color, bright stripe or fresh print may be all that is needed. In the bedroom, a flowered or striped sheet may be used instead of a heavy spread.

If a fitted sheet is used, a flounce of plain sheeting can be added. Cool accessories, may be the final touch for change-about rooms. A glass bowl, straw basket or fresh flower arrangement aren't extras. They'll make may be your choice.
