TWO THOl'SAND DEGREES
1'NDKR THE MICROSCOPE by J. H. Welch of the Building Research Station
Cement, glass, bricks, steel. They are all made at high temperatures. But how can we find out exactly what is happening at 2,000° Centigrade? Whipping out samples and cooling them rapidly is one way, but it is now possible to observe high-temperature changes directly in the high-temperature microscope. The speaker describes the instrument and some of the things that can be done with it.

by Eynon Evans, adapted for radio by the author from his television play
with Hugh David and Eynon Evans
[Photo caption] By Eynon Evans, who also plays the part of Inspector Probert
George, who was tortured in a prisoner-of-war camp when his plans for escape were discovered, is dead after five years in a mental home. His five fellow prisoners had sworn that if George died they would kill the man who had betrayed him to the Germans. But which of them was to do the killing? And how?
In any case five years is a long time to remember a man's screams in the night, and time mellows hate - for some.
Tonight's play is a radio adaptation of Eynon Evans's television drama; it is a thriller quite different from the author's usual work. At 8.30
