a total of 257 men were admitted to

the Institute as Freshmen. These
men came from ten different states
and two different countries. The

at the Malacca
Standards, at Washington, D. 0.,
keeps tabs on the 600 broadcasting
stations and thousands of other
transmitting stations in the United
States. It makes sure that each is
broadcasting on the special wave
length that has been officially as—
signed to it: It has an accuracy of
one part in a million.

Vibrating quartz crystals, housed
under glass covers, are miniature
broadcasting stations that emit
waves of exceedingly exact frequ—
ency. These waves are taken as
standard and compared electrically
with those of commercial broad—
casting stations. Any discrepancy
between the two produces a whistle,
and the musical pitch of the whis-
tle is an exact measure or the
amount by which the station is off
its proper wave length. In order
to keep the quartz crystals at a
constant temperature, ensuring
their accuracy, they are housed in
a heat-insulated chamber resemb-
ling an ice box.

First Floating Power
Ship in New England

 

Soon New England is to have the
first regular floating power station.
The New England Public Service
Company has just purchased the
obsolete cargo ship Jacona from
the *United States Shipping Board.
Modern steam turbines and gener—
ators are to be installed so the ship
can generate electric power for
cities situated on the coasts of
Maine and New Hampshire.

Not long ago the plan of supply—
ing power from a ship was shown
to be practical. When shortage of

water for hydroelectric power
threatened to shut down factories
in Tacoma, Wash., the United

States Navy’s airplane carrier Lex-
ington went to the rescue. Electric
cables were laid from the ship to
the shore, and for thirty days the
Lexington’s 180,000 — horsepower
generators fed power into the city
wires.

Two Texans are holding a rather
novel race to New York; one is rid—
ing a large black bull, and the
other is driving a goat and a jack—
ass. The hull is favored.

i first: News E
We were sorry to learn of the re-
cent illne. as of Mrs Sanders of the
Burnham Library, of the Art Insti-
tute, and wish to assure her that
she was missed very much. We are
hoping for a very early return.

It is expected that the Paris Prize
drawings of 1930 will be on exhibi—
tion at the Burnham Library this
week or soon thereafter.

B. D. Anderson, or more inform-
ally, “Andy”, treated a small group
Professor Hammett, Mr. and Mrs.
Dutt, Edward Prevar, ’32 and Earl
Kublcek, ’32, to a movie travelogue
of his. own at his home on Tuesday
evening, October 23th. It consisted
of his travels in Europe and views
taken on a trip through Yellow-
stone National Park.

 

 

 

 

One of the suggested projects at
the World’s Fair of 1933 is a restaur-
ant in the air or rather three res—
taurants in the air, each one to be
built above the other on a common
stem. Each is to be a half circle in
shape and they are to revolve. The
time for each revolution is to be
one hour. Service to the restaurn
ants is to be through the stem.
The exclusivencss of the dining
palaces will be graduated according
to their heights. The highest will
be the most expensive. The idea of
the revolving is that the diner
may, at the beginning of his meal
be facing the city and watch the
lake while he is drinking his coffee.

The forty~thlrd American Exhibi-
tion oi? art work is now open in the
galleries of the Art Institute.
Among all the work on display
there is not one cubist picture.

.l. Schommer Rescues
Struggling Chemical

Arthur Viel. Ch.E.. ’32, owes the
presence of the hairy growth on
his countenance to the kind-heart-
edness of “Jawn” Schommer. A
group of Chemicals and Fire Pro-
tects Waylaid said Mr. Vie] and
proceeded to stretch him out de—
spite his vigorous physical protesta—
tions. The razor was just about to
be applied to the treasured pos—
session when John Schommer en?
tered the picture. Visions of E’s
next February caused the students
to scatter and allow the offended
Junior to continue his marches
around the Bacteriology Lab. Ru—
mor hath it that said Mr. Viel will
either remove offending disguise or
become the object of much concern
for a while. Blessed be John. says
Viel.

Disease (Storms Killed
By Electric Bullets

Disease germs may be killed in the
future by tiny bullets from electric
guns, instead of being poisoned by
antiseptics as at present. In a
study made at the University of
Cincinnati, Dr. D. A. Wells was able
to destroy numbers of the germ
Staphylococcus alhus, one of the
most virulent germs known and the

 

them with electronic bullets in a
vacuum tube. An electric pressure
of only thirty volts was needed to
produce the effect. A battery of
twenty dry cells could give this cur-
rent. When the electric voltage was
raised, the additional energy sub».
stantially increased the slaughter of
the germs.

The Frame of Chance
He had a little picture frame
Upon his dresser top.
Each time I’d come another dame
Would occupy the spot.

The frame was pretty, eight by ten

I believe that was the size,
Yet I would like to know the time
I'd see the same face twice.

The thing just seemed to symbolize

His very frame of mind:
A passing fancy that he prized
Each new flame he did find.

But marl: my word, I'll make a bet

That on some future day
I’ll see the one girl in there yet
That he'll put there to stay.

vented in Germany, is said to pre—
vent dangerous sparks when the
switch cuts off the current. Switches
lOW in use for high voltages are
cumbersome giants immersed in a
tank of insulating oil to prevent the
flashes. The charred oil must be
changed often. The new switch, pro-
duced by the German electrical
works of Sicmens-Schukert, is
bathed in arliquid the formula of
which is still a secret, but which is
understood to be far superior to oil
as an insulator.

This particular switch was de—
veloped by Dr. R. A. Millikan and
Professor R. W. Sorensou of the
California Institute of Technology,
located at Pasadena, to control the
millions of volts that are used there
in electrical tests. A vacuum so
nearly perfect that it contains less
than 1/760,000 as much air as an
equal space of the outside atmos-
phere minimizes the flash of the are
when the switch breaks the elec—
trical cir uit.

planned with every consideration for the fundamental and special playing
conditions it must meet. That is why the big Novalux projectors give
ample and evenly diffused light over the entire playing area.

The development of General Electric floodlighting equipment has
