interest to the public revealed. Professor
Loeb was reluctant to talk. and said that
he preferred 20 hold the results Of his re-
search work until he had them all ar
ranged for publication in his physiologi-
cal studies.
Professor D. J. Lingle was also busy in
his laboratory working on the hearts Of
different animals and following up some
of his theories about the structure Of
heart tissue and the action Of salt on this
muscle. DR.. Linge was enthusiasiastic
about the recent work done IN the Hun
