examined the deta end it immediately occurred
to us that maybe something was interfering
with our analysia.

There was a drizzle and rain
throughout the dey, and we went back to our

fallout information to find out waa eomebody

else experiencing a similar phenomenon,

And,

sure enough we found that this wae done at

Buffalo and the cities of Detroit and Cleveland each had fallouts of the order of 500

disintegrations per minute per square foot.
And so we feel a little bit secure
in saying that the fallout line was like this
and then 414 in fact, level off because we

were hitting a ®rombé degree background,

Deducting this figure, 2 think we
deducted 400 disintegrations per minute per .-

equare foot from the data which again gives
us a fellout curve which is not nearly as

good a fit to the "Sutton® equation as the

other one is, but putting the proper pira-

meters in, it does fit pretty well.

And, so we believe that we have
this thing pretty well in hand,
That the
amount of contemination from such a burne
ing is very minimal,
It could not poseibly
