Captain TcrilI T.. Price Has TriScCt- =
cd an Angle. Something Many
Have often Sought tO DO.

SAN FRANCISCO, July lb.-tn"
OF the most interesting and Intricate
problems OF geometry. which for
years has been a favorite puzzle Of
mathcmaticians, has been solved 10y
n soldier.
Captain Tcrril T., Price, aide to
Mni-Gcn. Charles H. Muir, COM
mandcr of the Ninth corps area OF
the United states army has trisoct-
ed an angle with dividCrs and "A
right-anglcd ruler
The announcement was made by
General Muir, following reports that
an eastern mathematician had
solved the problem, hut was not
ready TO announce his method"
Captain Price is University of
PENNSYLVANIA honor student in
mathematics.
Captain Price has not only effect
ctt>a solution OF tho problem, but his
diagrams and particulars Of his
achievement are ON file with the
war department, General Muir
stated. Briefly, here is Captain
Prices solution:
To trisect an angle with diYdcrs
ana right -anElcd ruler:
Draw taugcnts to its sides at
equal distances from the angle.
Measure the distance from the side
~ the angle To- the intersection ~ the
tangcnts. Lay OF twice this distance
on straight limo and tr!scct a..
tUsiuE the regular gcomotric
method Tor dividing a straight line
into any given number ~ parts)
Lay off the resulting third on
each tangent separately. measuring
from the side or the angle toward
the intersection W the tangcnts,
Connect the angle with the two
points thus obtained 10y straight
lines
Trlscct the chord from the bases
OF the tanFCuts already drawn and
draw straight lines from the triscr-
tion points to the angle. Biscct the
second and fourth OF the five angles
NOW formed from the original angle.
These hiscrtiug lines will trisrct
the original angle.
To provo the result correct;

that Colonel Harvey, the new am

consequently, amenable to the pro-

But on inquiry It was ascertained
that there Is no truth in the report.
But there is no doubt, however.
that the rumor created painful

Americans AT the clubs hinted that
there was no need for Colonel Har-
vey to keep the spirit, as well as the

TEXAS FINDS LOST CITIES
Ruins Of Buried Houses Built Of

From tho Kansas city star
Further striking evidences of an
ancient civilization that once inhab-
tied the upper panhandle region OF
Texas and was perhaps spread over
u good part Of the region that IL now
embraced in western Kansas. wcs-
tern oklahoma and eastern Colorado
have been found recently by w. u.
Lilly of Gage, okla, and others,
while excavating upon the site OF
what IL now known as Lost city"
situated l6 miles southeast of Per
rytown, Texas.
Ruins Of large houses, built OF
dressed stone. have been unearthod
many feet below the existing level
plain. Judging from the appear
ance of the ruins, the city was de-
stroyod by flood. Pottery of fine
work manship, implements Of indus
try and war, domestic utensils OF va
rlOus kinds and many other relics
were found amid the ruins. The
streets were evidently broad and well
laid out. II Ia the theory of Mr.. Lii
ly that the city had a very large
population at one time and that II
was built upon the shore Of n beau
tiful lake, which has now entirely
disappeared. lie also holds the view
that "A second race of people may

Scientists are finding also that the

attractive rhythm of the waves or grass
In the wind Then rhythm became an
accessory to worship, and for centuries
savages, Egyptians, Greeks and Hebrews
danced before their affairs But in the
early medieval times religious dancing
began to lost favor, until now ony In

Modern religion, with indoor services,
has no place for the ecstatic dance.
OUR UNRHYTHMIC
LIVES.
Nor do our amusements and occupa-
tions lend themselves readily to rhythmic
mfmicry We are told that the Greek
maidens played knuckle bones in their
dances, and the Indians have arrow,
bead, feather and spear dancers, sym
bo'ic Of their interests.
But when we take modern parallels
golf, the automobile, machinery and air
planes-rhythmic possibilities have
seemed negligible. Yet it may be that
the fault Is in ourselves. Adelaide Genee,
the famous ballerina, is noted for her re-
markable dance of the hunt. Why not
a dance symbolic of the motorist? Or
Ia it that we are so close to the auto
mobile that we can not see in it the
picturesque qualities that We note at once
In the Roman chariot2 Any tyro at
dancing could give you a chariot dance
Amateurs get their ideas of free dancing
from accounts saying that the Greeks

long periods training for their festival

Chopin's Funeral March" alike. Then,
too, we have the other extreme Of Greek
dances produced with deadly precision
that reduces them to the inspirational
level of Swedish clap dance.
Greek dancing has been most popular
with us because, in dancing, as In other
things, we have more in common with
the European than with the Oriental.
Egyptian and Hindu dancers with angles,
elbows, contortions and Turkish trousers
have added a dash Of the exatic to our
artistic efforts, but their vogue has been
limited.
Strangely enough, the American Indian
has never figured to any extent in our
revivals of different styles of dancing.
Yet the primitive Indian put religious
and emotional expression in his dances no
less than the Greek. The form of the In
dian dances is often attractive. 1t Is a
mistake to thtmk OF them as nothing but
monotonous haping in circle vita
grunts from the chorus. Indian dancing
should appeal to us. too, because of its
symbolic and dramatic qualities. As
people, we respond most quickly to
dancing that tells story.
We seem to be drawing more or less in
spiration from the various peoples who
made Of dancing an art. We have this
for a foundation. And now that the
rhythm of machinery has been put into
the language CT &, dance of one pioneer,
1t is possible tha a school may grow up
and that we shall have descriptive and
dramatic dancing with modern themes.
1t may be the beginning of an American
dance art.

dancing The point overlooked 10 that
the Greeks had strict physical training
in gymnasium, and generally the heritage
Of strong physique to begin with. The
average person today can with difficulty
hold pose on one foot for ten seconds.
Yet to express nghtness in dancing, the
individual must have the power to put
his body into positions that are really
easy and graceful. For us, who lack the
heritage Of the Greek, this means
hard work But the casual de-
voices Of art flutter along, trying to
build a top story of bacchanals ana
Amazon dances on a wobby foundation.
Another scarcely understood fact is
that the Greeks used in their dances the
, natural ways Of expressing emotions that
are used in real life. When jealousy,
grief, hatred, and love are strong
enough, even the fingers, eyes, and
shoulders respond with certain reactions.
Isadora Duncan understood this. She
found the Greeks inspiring because their
dancing expressed emotions in ways
which seemed to her natural and beaut1-
full Her aim was for the dance to in
terpret some aspect of life just as a
poem or painting does, not to initiate
Greek poses for the sake of doing a
classic dance.
Many barefoot dancers, however, have
wandered from this ideal of art. They
take it that the same gestures can be
used in every dance and that so long as
a step is graceful 1t is appropriate. This
leads to the confused waving of arms
and legs with which so many dancers
greet the Hungarian Rhapsody" and

and our architecture, dancing and oEner
arts should be able to follow suit.
If the young mans mechanical notion
was followed out we should have like
wise the dance of the steam drill, the
dance of the steam shovel, and above all
the dance Of the steam roller, which
would afford special opportunities for
the heavy talent which is so abundant in
dancing circles. But the new American
school Of dance should express the soul
of the great American people rather than
the mere mechanical externals of its in
dustrial technology. For example, OPP
posed to the famous baachanal Of the
ancient Romans we should have the pro-
hibition dance. The imagination fairly
riots with possible details. Likewise the
dance of the blue laws would surely be
one Of our masterpieces, embodying the
very soul of our traditional puritanism.
Imagine also dances which interpreted
the spirit of a great American amuse-
ment park, and think of the effects which
could be wrought in dance of election
night, or a dance Of the Red Peril.
Does it strike you as ridiculous2 1t is
by just such interpretations Of their
national and racial life that the ancie Mt
raised the dance to a plane of equality
with music and painting as an art. And
it Is by our failure to interpret ourselves
that we have let it degenerate into jig
ging and clogging.
We are at a disadvantage in creating a
dance form typical of our period, because
dancing has held almost no place in our
l1vec as a rite or for self expression In
the beginning of the race, the primitive

New American School of
Dancing to Express Soul

METHODS OF ANCIENTs

WASHINGTON, D. c.-"The Dance of
the Machine Gun" was recently enacted
by a young man at local amateur nar-
romance before highly edited au-
dience. In this artistic effort the vouno
man took something distinctly modern
and tried to interpret the emotions which
1t would arouse in a sensitive beholder
Just as the early Greeks. the early Egyp-
tians, the American Indians and many
other ancient and primitive people have
interpreted the familiar and striking fea-
lures Of their lives in dance.
Opinion was divided as to the merits
OF the young mans performance. II was
IN fact rated all the way from the sub
lime to the ridiculous. But it had to be
conceded that he was an artistic pioneer
