Incorporated into the work of the two lit

PROUD OF STUDENT

Admission, October 17.-(speeial)- DIR.
John w. stagg, president of the Alabama
Presbyterian college, has one student un-
der his guidance of whom ne is particu-
larry proud, and from whom he is ex-
pecting great things. This boy is Walter
w. Stephen, aged 10, of Mobile, an en-
bryo scientist aeronaut and poet.
Young Stephen is a member of the As
ISOLATION of Amateur Wireless Telegraph
ers Of the United States and has taken
an active part on the defensive side in
the fight which the commercial interests
of the country are making to root out
the amateurs. He has constructed
form for a wireless apparatus to be in
stalled at the Presbyterian college, by
means of which he hopes to give demon
strations and enlist influential Annisto-
mans in the fight which the amateurs
are making under the leadership of Lee
DeForest, national president.
Stephen says that the fight of the COM
mercial interests is based on the ale
CATION that the amateurs cross their cur
rents and receive information which was
Intended to be private and thus destroy In
a large measure the truthworthnesS of
their system, but according to Stephen,
tn1S Is possible Only WHSIt Olu-IlIne Wire
less instruments are used, as the more
modern apparatus tunes OUT all inter-
ference from foreign sources or inter-
mediate stations.
Besides his experiments in wireless tel
egraphy, Stephen has tried out in aero
nautics, and last year he made an aero
plane which made two successful fights.
IT was built on the Chanute type, with
two surface glides and $50 square feet of
supporting surface. 1t was tried out at
Fort Valley Ca, and as q glider worked
successfully, but was wrecked in a tree
before Stephen had a chance to operate
it with motor AS a glider, however,
he says 1t was a success.
Stephen is versed in astronomy and
chemistry beyond the average boy of his
age; he has operated fast motor cars,
and besides his scientific essays, he has
occasionally courted the Muse with more
or less success. He is a member of the
college football squad and says that he
may study theology after he finishes his
college course.
