NEW TYPE OF RIVETING
MACHINE is IN USE
Combines Both Electric and
Hydraulic Features

Consul Thomas H. Norton of Chem
nitz writes that German machine con-
structors have shown much interest in
the introduction Of a new type of rivet-
ing machine, combining electric and
hydraulic features. which he thus de-
scribes:
"Of the various mechanical contriv-
ances to replace the human riveter the
hydraulic devices have thus far yielded
the most satisfaction. Their use is un-
accompanied by jars and shocks and the
riveting done meets the most rigid de-
mands. Similar results are also in many
cases secured by the electric riveters.
The hydraulic method labors, however,
under the serious disadvantage of re-
curing an exceedingly expensive plant.
Pneumatlc riveting is handicapped by
the same economic drawback. Electric
riveting on the contrary while fire.
uuently inadequate. has the very pro-
nounced advantage of involving simple
mechanism and is.run at slight cost.
These considerations have led to the
invention by a prominent machine firm
at Oerlikon of compound riveter, COM
bining the mechanical advantages of
hydraulic riveting and the economy of
electrical motive power. 1t weighs
2750 pounds, is easily transportable
and is so arranged as to be suspended
from above at any desired height and
to operate horizontally or vertically

High School Boys Ply Red
Paint at Military Academy
Especial Dispatch 10 The CALI

SAN RAFAEL, April 2S.-Peace once
more prevails in this vicinity. and the
students from Hitchcock military acad-
emy and the San Rafael high school
have ceased to pass each other with
noses angled high and blindness in
the eyes as to the others presence. 1t
happened thus: Saturday Hitchcock and
the high school teams played baseball.
The game was fast and it took IL in
nings to settle the contest. San Rafael
lost to the military lads. They swore
by all the school books that Hitchcock
treated them unfairly, and cited two In
stances to clinch their case.
The next morning the Hitchcock boys
awoke to view the vengeance wrought
by the enemy during the night. The
big wooden backstop on the diamond
which had proudly borne the eight foot
letters II. M. A. in white was deco
rated with the symbol rs. II. 81 in ir-
regular design and red paint
Aroused by the insult council of
war was held. DIR. Hitchcock, president
Of the academy. telephoned to E. Nor
ris Cox, superintendent of the high
school The students of Hitchcock de-
manded an apology Cox hastened to
hear his students side of the case with
the. result that friendly relations were
re-established by conciliatory letter
to the head of the academy by the San
Rafael high scholars.

TEMPTED BY OFFERS
FROM THE EAST
State University Faculty May
Lose Some of Its Most
Gifted Members

BERKELEY, April 2s.-Flattering
ready lured away one faculty member
of the university and another brilliant
head of a university department has
been offered chair at Yale with such
an increase over his present salary
that he may accept.
DR.. H. w. Prescott, associate pro-
fessor of classical philology and we'll
known Latin scholar, will leave here
to join the faculty of the University
of Chicago.
Prof. Martin C. Flaherty, head of the
department of public speaking and a
brilliant graduate of the university, is
undecided whether to accept the chair
rendered him at Yale university. Both
men are high in their departments and
beloved by students. The loss of both
would be a great one for the university
Prof Albert Mite. the newly ac-
quired head of the French department
of the university, who, after a stay
here of but six months will leave this
May, has also answered the call of the
University of Chicago and will head
the department of French there this
fall. His successor was secured by DIR.
Wheeler while he was in Chicago a
week ago.
DIR. Prescott, who has made several
contributions of merit to Latin liter
ature and knowledge, is a graduate
of Harvard university with the
class of 1895 and also holds the
degrees of master OF letters and doc
tor of philosophy from that institu-
tion. He has been a member Of the
faculty for the last eight years and
his loss will be a hard one to meet.
DR.. Prescott will move with his family
to Chicago this summer.
Professor Flaherty, a graduate of
the university in 1886, was a Carnot
medalist and has always taken the
greatest interest in public speaking.
The department has practically been
organized and placed on firm footing
by him and bids fair In the years to
come to be one of the strongest uni
versity branches. If Professor F'laherty
decides not to accept the tempting
offer 1t will be on account of the love
he has for the department he has fos-
tered and nouriShed-
