Custodial history

Scope and content

Two men sitting at a seismograph machine. From back of photo: "Bart Cox, left, and Fred Rittmann, instrument technicians in charge of the seismograph at the University of Saskatchewan check over the unit's delicate instruments which vibrate if an earthquake occurs in any part of the world. The vibrations trigger a mechanism which enables the quake to be recorded on photographic oaoer rolled in the drums in the foreground and at left. Normally, the equipment is covered byt the covers were removed for the purposes of the picture.
After 43 years the University of Saskatchewan's seismograph work done in behalf of the Dominion Observatory is coming to an end. The unit in the picture will be removed beginning on April 1 and the Dominion Observatory will be set up in a more sensitive instrument on bedrock at another location in Saskatchewan."
