Use X-Rays on Steel
From the London Times.

X rays, which have hitherto been used only to disclose defects and
injuries hidden from sight within the human frame. are now to be
used to examine inanimate materials like steel and timber. One OBJ
vlous application of the X-rays is to the examination of metal cast
lngs Tor defects, such as blowhoes, which cannot be revealed by exter-
MAJ inspection, and yet mystemously impair the strength of the fin
ished article. Ii the castings re not too large. each of them may
De subjected to routine testing by the rays, and it may be found that
ny some alteration in the method of casting, blowholes, that occur
regularly at some particular point, can be eliminated. The rays may
also be employed to study the effect of adding different quantities of
aluminium to steel, and thus to ascertain the proportion most suitable
for the production of sound castings.
The method has its limitations, because at presen, the rays can
he made to penetrate only a few inches, about four at the most, of
ordinary steel, and a still smaller thickness of special alloy steels. But
great improvements have been made in recent years by the aid of the
Coolidge Xray tube and of exciting currents at very high electrical
pressures. Further advances may be looked for not only in this por-
tin OF the apparatus, but also in the method employed for detecting
the rays after their passage through the material under investigation,
whether by Photographic plate, the fluorescent screen, or the phe-
of ionization.

HOW DID HE DO III?

During the night I had beer awak-
ened several times by the coughing of
n man sleeping in a berth across the
aisle OF the sleeping car. l fell to
Sotlclng the quality of his cough and
circulating as to the cause OF it. 1t
*~>s a nervous, dry cough. 1t brought
up hoth!ng n it was clear that it was
not intended to do so. Each bark was
%staccato in type. The banks were in
chains of six and eight, each following
its predecessor quickly. There was not
tiine enough between the banks to get
much air in behind phlegm or to do
awning to promote raising. This de-
clded me that the person had a throat
cough probably due to smoking.
me next morning 1 got to the dress
ing room first. Presently along came
my across-the-aisle friend. He proved
10 De a young boy, say. of 20 years. His
eyes We're heavy. He deposited his
ciothlng on a seat. took out a cigaret
ana smoked up, almost doing during
the process. This job finished. he con-
ciuded 1t was time to dress. He lit
ahother cigaret and started dressing.
"hlie ne was washing his hands there
was nothing out of the ordinary. He
aeld ms cigaret in his lips. He man.
asea 10 get his neck and ears washed
wlelout disturbing his cigaret. Then
ne deilcately touched the weed with his
myers deposited it on the edge of the
seahu. quickly washed his face, re-
sumed smoking and used a towe. in the
ut!lhs process while so engaged.
by this time he was fully awake, and
ne mad made up his mind to shave be-
1ore breakfast. Still smoking. he lath-
ereo MS face, and shaved. To shave
ms upper lip he drew back his lower
Jaw, olited his cigaret downward, lath-
ered the lip and scraped away. When

All the while that he bathed and
shaved. he smoked and %incidentfy in
nailed. He smoked on the way to the
liner, but not while. he was at the
table. Leaving the dining car he lit a
clgaret and went after it again. Here
my record ends, for soon after my
destination was reached.
How much harm was this amount
OF smoking doing? It was causing the
cough. but that is not liable to develop
into any lung disease. The cough was
disturbing his sleep and preventing
him from starting the day fresh.
doubt II any physical examiner would
have rejected him on account of any
organic defect due to tobacco. If ne
keeps up his present rate of use of the
drug he may expect to feel the effects
in his eyes or heart in time.
That he is addicted to the use Of the
drug was certain. I should say that
there was not much pep or push to the
boy and probably not much Of ,charac-
ter. 1t is just as likely that these
qualities were the reasons tina he was
a cigaret fiend as they were effects of
the drug.
No. He did not brush his teeth,

Referee squabbIe Unchanged.

The deadlock over the referee con-
,tnues, and while Richard and the mem
bers OF the Army. Navy and Civilian
Board OF Boxing Control are hopeful Of
q settlement within a few days. there Is
much unrest over the unfortunate tangle.
Conferences have been held all day, in
which Mayor Schneider. Richard, and
Gavin and Empie OF the board and rep
resentatives of the Toledo A. c. have
participated. While Gavin thought there
was a disposition on the part of the OBJ
strucdonists to take fairer view of
the matter, he was not sangulne of an
early adjustment.
BY way of compromise, the name of
Benny Leonard. the lightweight cham
pion, was submitted to the different fac
tons and Is said TO have been received
with favor. There is, however. consider
able question as TO the lightweight title
holder consenting to act. The chief OBJ
structionist is Willard, who is said to
be determined to have Richard act as
third man in the ring.
Willard did not attend the conference,
but arranged to meet Richard to-mor-
row. when Richard will make deter
mined EFFORT to obtain a list OF referees
acceptable to the champion.
q. Included in the list of officials sub
sHNecd ny hcArHS dS bCCeptdDl6 10
Dempsey were Bill Brown of New York.
Jack WEIGH OF San Francisco. Ollie Pc
cord Of Toledo, Jim Griffin of San Fran
cisco. Kid Mcfarland of New York,
Jack Sicily OF Yonkers, N. Y: Walter
Kelly of Buffalo. and Billy Roche of
. New York.
1t is obvious that Dempsey would not
consent TO the selection OF any man
named by Willard. and vice versa.
Therefore the task before the Board OF
Control is TO get the principals 10 agree
on some man not picked by either.
Gavin said that Willard was the most
eiflcult man to reason with he ever had
encountered, and that had the Army
Board known what a vexatious problem
was before II. 1t never would have &C
eepted the responsibility of selecting a
referee for the bout Unless there is a
speedy agreement 1t is not unlikely the
Board will name a man and say to the
principals take him or leave him."
