A method is described for preparing counting samples for the determination of fall-out radioactivity in rain water. The sample is placed on a plastic film in a metal evaporating dish and evaporated to dryness. The plastic sheet is then heated until it melts, ignites, and burns, leaving a sample which can be counted in the same container. (C.H.)
