BOY AGED SIXTEEN is
MATHEMATICAL MARVEL
Solves a Problem That Has Defied the
Brightest Minds Since the Days
of Euclid

Philadelphia, June 20. What is
declared by prominent authorities on
higher mathematics to be the greatest
invention of its kind, is being demon
strated by its inventor, Sydney A.
Gross, Is. student of the Central high
school The device is an angle sector
which mathematicians say will divide
an angle not right angle, and which
they say has proved erroneous the
theory since Euclid's time that there
was no practical method of trisecting
such angles.
Among the mathematicians who
have used the boy s sector and found
it true are Prof NJ. j. Babb,
University of Pennsylvania Prof.
Samuel K. Brecht of the scientific
department of Central high school
Prof. David Eugene Smith. author of
mathematical text books, and Prof
Jonathan S. Rorer, William Penn
High school.
Gross device was made in ten
days after the boy began the study Of
the problem. 1t is made of cardboard
shaped like an eight pointed star, and
IS divided into four large compart-
ments along two axes. Each compart.
ment is divided into eight subdivi.
sions and the points joined together so
that complete series of rectangles
are formed and which may be moved
about by means Of flexible hinges.
To divide an angle the device is
placed over the angle and the hinges
worked so that it forms the required
section It will make three groups of
twin triangles which are equal and
every group of two angles is one third
of the entire angle.
Dr. Rorer said Since $50 B
C., the only known method of trisect-
ing an angle has been by higher
curves. But this makes practical the
trisection of an angle. =

OPPOSED TO ARMY BILL
Officers Object to Proposed De-

from The Tribune Bureau.l

W OClODeI ov
OPPOSED TO DETACHED SERVICE
BILL.-The War Department has not yet
replied to the request of the House and
Senate Military committees for its corn
ment on a pending bill of vital impor-
lance 10 all army officers OF the line
above the grade of captain. This bill was
introduced early in the present extra ses-
sion by Representative Hay. chairman Of
the Military Committee, and extends the
existing detached service law to embrace
field officers of the line. The law now
applies to captains and lieutenants, and
requires that at least one-third of their
active duty shall be served with their
respective organizations. The bill applies
the same principle to the senior officers.
Much complaint has been expressed 10
the War Department about the proposed
legislation, and II was expected that the
Secretary OF War would make known the
objections entertained in the service. It
does not appear, however that any rep
reservations made by the department
would avail, for Congress seems deter
mined TO have the detached service law
apply generally. 1t is maintained that
this can be done with great benefit to the
army and ultimately to the satisfaction
of the personnel, for 1t rids the service OF
opportunities for favoritism.
