Dr. Miklos Hatenyi, Hungarian-born research engineer at the Westinghouse electric and manufacturing company. He made various types of nuts and bolts, attached weights to the bottom of each model and heated them to "freeze" the stress lines, then cut slices from the center of each model and photographed the thin plastic sections to show which nut or bolt divided the "pull" among threads

Children are taught good eating habits at nursery established by the Health for Victory Club in a new project of the club's nutrition program at the Westinghouse Electric & Manufacturing Company, at Mansfield, Ohio. Under the direction of a paid kindergarten teacher, the children are taught fundamentals of food and health, while their mothers, who are wives of war workers at the plant, study new points of nutrition under war-time conditions. The Health for Victory Club at the Mansfield plant has developed a program of safeguarding workers' health by buying and serving the foods that make up well-balanced meals that is now used by 640 war plants throughout the country. The Mansfield plant has a labor-management committee formed by representatives of the management and the United Electrical and Radio Machine Workers of America

Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. By using a polarized light apparatus to take pictures of plastic models of turbine nuts and bolts, Dr. Hetenyi, Hungarian-born research engineer at the Westinghouse Electric and Manufacturing Company, has discovered how to make this fastening device up to forty per cent stronger. He found that nuts and bolts with broad shoulders and tapered bodies distribute stress on threads more evenly than do ordinary nuts and bolts
