Police guards are now posted around the house of the Bab who is a central figure of the Baha'i Faith. "Extensive damage was done, including the destruction of the roof and walls of the room where the Baha'i Faith began," said Professor ' Jameson Bond, an executive officer of the National Spiritual Assembly of the. Baha'is of Canada. "All doors and windows in the lower storey are gone, and many walls throughout the house have been torn down." "Violence by fanatics in Iranian society has characterized the cen- tury -long persecution of the Baha'i Faith," said Mr. Bond. "Several months ago all Baha'i properties were con- fiscated by the Iranian , government which assured Baha'is in writing that the seizure was for the purpose of protecting these sacred properties." When the House of the Bab was first attacked by a crowd of over 100, in- cluding 25 armed revolutionary guardsmen earlier, anguished protests were made by the Baha'i world com- munity to the govern- ment of Iran. ,Urgent appeals were also made , to governments throughout the world, to intervene on behalf of the law-abiding, but per- sistently persecuted., Baha'i community of Iran. In Canada, cables were sent to Prime Minister Joe Clark and • External Affairs Minister Flora MacDonald, by the National Spiritual Assembly of ,the Baha'is of Canada. The House of the Bab was ordained by the Founder of the Bahal Faith,' Baha'u'llah, as a place of pilgrimage. It is held by the Iranian Baha'is on behalf of the Baha'i world community.

At the University of Guelph, agricultural engineers are already developing solar collection systems for livestock barns. This five- year project is funded by the Ontario Ministry of Agriculture and Food, the Ontario Ministry of Energy, and the Ontario Pork Producers' Association. Researchers have been measuring the potential of solar energy with a ' model collector for the past two years. Active field testing is scheduled to begin next year. "There are limitations to solar energy in this part of the world,” says Prof. Frank Theakston, of the School of Engineering. "However, we can collect enough heat for livestock buildings." Prof. Theakston believes solar energy may have a brighter future in agricultural operations than in other types of applications because of the large roof and -wall areas qt., agricultural buildings. The only drawback is cost. "We have been trying to develop an inexpensive collector that farmers can install on existing barns without changing the structure." Although most solar experts agree that a 60- to 65 -degree slope is necessary to collect solar energy, University of, Guelph tests show that a conventional sloping roof and vertical sidewall will give sufficient slope if there is good snow cover. At the Arkell Research Station, near Guelph, trials will use solar collectors to provide space heating for pigs. The collectors will be installed on five con- ventional Canada Plan Service barns with dif- ferent roof slopes and sidewalis. The collector which will be used in the ex- periments is very simple in design. A black steel plate is used to absorb the sun's he.at. This plate is covered with fiberglas to trap the heated air. The underside of the steel plate is well -insulated to prevent heat loss. The heat collected is drawn away from the collector and' blown over the pigs by a centrifugal fan. No water is used in the system. Cost estimates of the experimental system range from $3 to $6 per square foot, compared to the cost of commercial collectors which now average about $16 per square foot. Farmers may be able to reduce their heating costs using this system, Pin MORE DRIVE IN.
