Air Pollutants In Space
Pose Health Hazards

A Los Alamos National Labo-
ratory study predicts that airborne
particles at zero gravity settle in
the human respiratory tract dif-
ferently than they do on Earth.

The theoretical study states
that common air pollutants such
as dust, bacteria, and smoke could
present potential health hazards
for pioneers manning future
space stations or galactic colonies.

The Timberland Horse
Show was also very suc-

cessful with 86 entries.

Jamie Saussbaur offici-
ated as show manager.
The Nick Holmes
Smith English riding and
jumping clinic held at the
end of June was filled to
capacity as well as the
two Jim Tattersol west-
ern riding clinics, ‘‘Both
