From the New York Times.

Both you and your correspondent are
in error in what is printed in the Times
OF to-day about telephone phenomena.
In Bells original telephone the human
voice did cause the line wire to vi
brate electrically. though not me-
chanically; but that telephone could
propagate electrical vibrations only
few hundred feet at most.
The telephone In actual use is the
Edison variable resistance transmitter
Ia that system the voice supplies none
OF the energy that traverses the wire
That energy is supplied by a battery
or dynamo sending a constant cur
rent over the line. The voice merely
vibrates the little diaphragm In the
uansmitter. and that vibration simply
moves q little bit OF carbon In the
The Savannah morning news., 1903-12-16

transmitter into more or less contact
with another little bit of carbon. That
slight movement varies the electrical
resistance of the circuit, and thus
causes the current from the dynamo
to vary in strength.
The voice does not make the line
wire vibrate any, more than a locomo-
tive engineer pulls a train of cars with
his arms when he moves the lever
that let's the steam into the cylinder
of his engine. Albert H. Walker.

HOODOO STILL ON
Home Team Fail to Score Against,
Pacific University.

The o. A. c. and Pacific Uni
v.rsity football team battled for
supremacy last Saturday after
noon on the Farmers field and
after struggling through both
halves in a veritab1e quagmire
time was called before either side
had scored.
Although the field was SO
slippery and muddy that fast
playing was impossible, the game
nevertheless, was full of snap and
every gain was hard fought for.
o. A. c. started off in the first
half as if they meant to say fare
we'll to their old friend, the hoo
doc, and after sending Williams
through several times for good
gains the ball was at last carried
TO Paci6c's five yard line, and it
was in making the last run that
Williams and the ball parted
company, and after the waves
had died away and the players
come to surface, a Pacific man
vas fondly embracing the pig
skin. Then after having receiv-.
ed the ball on down 0. A. c.
again carried it within a few
yards Of P. U's.. line, only to lose
it on a tumble. Having then
failed to make yardage Pacific
punted and the remainder of the
first half was played 20 yards
from the P. US. goal. The Sec
ond half was played mostly in
the center of the field with hon
ors about even.
For thevisitors, Fullback Phil
brook played the star game and
their biggest gains were made
through him.
Williams, o. o. A. c. was by
tar the best player, and had his
team mates put up the article of
ball that he did, victory would
have been ours. Ali of o. A. C's.
gains were made by Williams
and his hurdling was feature.
The game throughout was cleanly
fought, free from foul playing.
We have game as it was play
ed, but have not the space to
spare for a detailed wr1te-up.

All Hope Gone.

By playing a scoreless game
with Pacific University on last
Saturday, the O. A. c. football
team now relinquish all hopes of
winning a game this year, and in
all probability will make a rec
ord by not making a single score
during the entire season.
What the cause is of the slump
that has taken hold of the home
team is hard to decide. There is
much harsh talk by the students,
who lay all the blame on Coach
McFadden, but from the show
ing that the team made in the
first two games this year with
U. of w. and Multnomah, the
coach has done his duty well.
Had the local eleven put up
such an article of ball that was
played with Seattle, they would
have had no difficulty in winning
from both Albany and Forest
Grove.
Pullman PLAYS here on Wednes-
day and it is in this game that
Coach ,McFadden has any hopes
of landing score this season.
This statement is based on the
fact that Seattle has played both
teams and made bigger score
against Pullman than with o.
A. c. From the showing that
the University of Nevada has
made against the California
teams, the drubbing that Ne
vada's husky lads will give the
Farmers will certainly not be a
small one.

In New Quarters.

Two of the classes of the pub
lie school moved yesterday to
permanent quarters in the new
school building. The primary
grade, under the efficient man
agement of Miss Maud Kerns,
will occupy the southwest room,
on the first floor. Miss Kerns
will take, about As scholars, to
this room, out of the 68 she has
been teaching, one of her classes
having been transferred to Miss
Fullerton's room. The lighting
of this room is new experiment
in this city, the bulk of the
light being on the left side of the
scholars as they sit at their
desks. This is called the Cali
fornia system, and the result of
the experiment will be watched
with much interest.
Miss Fullerton will occupy the
southeast corner room, with a
class of about 40 scholars. The
lighting of this room is on the
Oregon plan. The rooms vacat-
ed in the old building will be oc-
cupied by new classes, formed
from the overflow of the old
classes, and be under the instruc-
ton OF Misses Kyle and Evans.

ern Star, at its organization in
1886. His wife and daughter be-
came members at the same time,
and the daughter, Miss Lilly,
was one of its first officers. The
Chapter will attend the funeral in
a body.
Mr.. Groves was identified with
many local industries, being pro-
proprietor of the Corvallis Opera
House, and part owner OF the
local water works. He owned a
farm west of this city, on which |
he was working at the time he
received the paralytic stroke
which was eventually the cause
of his death.
William Groves was born in
Buckley county, West Virginia,
January I3, 1892. At the age
of six he came with his father to
Batavia, Clearmont, county, !
Ohio. He came by way of the
Isthmus to California in 1853,
and settled at Corvallis, Or, in
1863. September "a, 1865, he
was married to Miss Emma Horn
ing, who survives him. The
