It Sounds Crazy, But 1t Is All Right,
Women s Modes Haze An Effect on the
Acoustics of Halls, Explanation Simple
The Professor Says Hard Sur
faces Make Sound Waves Re
coil, Women's Clothes are
Fluffy and Kill Waves.

CHICAGO, III, June 27.-Women' s
modes have direct effect on auditor
jun acoustics, according to Prof f. r.
Watson of the department Of physics Of
the University of Illinois. Speakers and
singers can be heard more easily when
their audience is composed chiefly Of
women than when it is preponderately
masculine ne said. This is because
women. as experimenters have shown,
absorb more sound than men, owing to
the clothing worn"
Analyses Acoustics.
Prof. Watson, who analysed the acous-
tic properties Of the Municipal Pier here,
and whose recommendations for improve
ments were adopted by the city authori-
ties, has devised an instrument that
simplifies acoustic analysis. It is an
arc-light reflector, which sends its hiss
ing together with a beam Of light to in
accessible ceiling surfaces to determine
the presence and paths of any echoes.
Light Follows Path.
AS the sounds and the light take the
same path, the light indicates the point
In the ceiling surface where the sound
strikes, and the angle of sound reflec-
ton is then mathematically computed.
A standard organ pipe is blown and the
time taken for the sound to die out is
measured with stop-watch.
THE usual trouble in an auditorium"
said Prof Watson, results from the fact
that the walls do not absorb sound to
any great extent, and consequently the
word uttered by the Speaker takes a long
time to die out. In the mean time other
words are spoken that become confused
with the sound of the first words. In
some cases curved walls produce echoes
and concentrate the sound in unexpected
ways.
Sound Absorbers.
Sound-absorbing materials are the
usual corrective; cushions in the seats

Only Six of Belgian's War Dog
Heroes Left-Three Killed at the
Front, Two Poisoned by Germans
Gallant Acts of Peace Recorded
Save Children, Stop Horses,
and Catch Burglars

CLIENT, Belgium. June 27.-(cable
Letter).-only six of Belgium's ''War
Heroes" remain. They are not human
heroes, but brilliantly intelligent and
daring dogs who distinguished them
selves for valor and fidelity on the field
Of battle. Originally there were 1s, but
ten proved that even dogs can be mar
tyrs. Three were killed in action at the
front, three died of wounds, two were
poisoned by the Germans, one died of
grief over the loss OF his soldier master,
and one was mercifully put out Of his
misery when the enemy came to seize
him
Catch Horses.
The six survivors were proudly ex-
hibited by their owners at the Palais des
Elites recently. Some have gallant acts
OF peace to their credit as we'll as honors
Of war. They have saved children from
drowning, stopped runaway horses,
caught burglars, protected sheep and
stood silent guard over their masters
lives and homes. Three of them have
the Cross Of War for heroism and devo-
ton in the field.

Before going to England Hoover
won the Gold Challenge Cup at Phila-
delphia and in doing so shattered the
record for that event and defeated
Hilton Belyea, Canadian national
champion. The repulse turned Bel

he had previously entered.

Program.
The program consists OF eight
loared, four oared, pairs and singles
shells and SOULS, named: Grand Chal-

The Course.
The length Of the course-the start
is from below the island near Hen

lis about one mile, $50 yards, and is
$50 feet broad from end to end. The
large number OF entries IN the past

"mittee prohibits competition bebvsen
more than two crews ct one time and
if a preliminary ends IN a dead heat
neither crew is qualified and both
must row again.
