Earth science department installs new seismograph It may not be earth-shaking news, but the Palomar earth science department has just acquired a $10,000 seismograph. Installed the week before vacation, the super sensitive machine has already recorded about 15 earthquakes. The first one recorded here occurred in the Kuril Islands, 1200 miles northeast of Tokyo. Few junior colleges can boast a rnachine of this sort and the nearest one in this county is located at Scripps. However, a problem now exists for placement of the machine. A proper space for the detection sensors must be found, and it seems the basement in the chemistry building is the most logical place. But although the basement is likely, it too has the problem of considerable moisture accumulating there.

TELESCOPE printed on recycled paper Today's TELESCOPE has been printed on the reused byproducts of several Western cities--better known as 100% recycled paper. Manufactured by Simpson Lee Paper Company, this paper is composed of, among other things, printed computer forms, obsolete promotional materials, tab cards, envelope clippings, off-grade paper, old office records, office waste and typist errors. The materials for the recycled paper are transported to mills where they must be sorted carefully--a plastic envelope or a small amount of asphalt can ruin an entire batch of paper. The materials are then dumped into a large mixing beater and undergo several transformations before being returned to the consumer as 100% recycled.
