School Boy Has Stronger
Eyes Than College Man

Tests OF 42,275 students in twenty
two colleges and universities showed
hat S77 per cent were suffering from
defective vision, according to a report
ssued by the Eye Sight Conservation
Council of America.
Defects varied from 1916 per cent
81 per cent, tending to show, 1t was
declared, that the eye of the school
boy is sharper than that Of the college
freshman.
THE result Of the survey conducted
by the council" says the announce.
ment, indicate an increase in the
prevalence of defective vision among
university students.
These conclusions were all based
Ga simple visual acuity tests which
we're probably conducted more care
FULLY and thoroughly than similar tests
made in graded schools, and apply
principally to entering students,
1T is safe to assume that the de,
fects were graver at matriculatior
than during the preparatory period
during which undoubtedly they were
accumulated"

Government Owns Secret
OF New Radio Receiver

Officers Of the Signal Corps Of the
United States Army are now sitting
in their headquarters in Washington
with radio receiving set In front Of
them and as far as they are concerned
there is no broadcasting, no powerful
Arlington navy station-no other mes
sages going through the ether, in fact,
than the constant stream Of advices,
confirmation of orders and the Ike,
coming from the army posts scattered
throughout the nation.
This receiving set establishes a
worlds record for sensitivity, selectiv-
ity and power, and is the product of
many months of experiments.
The problem of devlsing such re-
ceiver that could bring in messages
from the army stations and eliminate
everything else, was put before the
radio manufacturers of the United
States year ago. The set was to re-
ceive on wave lengths from 1000 to
5000 meters and nothing else with the
use Of the signal corps loop antenna.
The engineering department OF the
Freed Eisemann Radio Corporation
produced the receiver that the gov
eminent accepted and which is now
performing the required service.
The experiments In the Freed-Bise-
mann laboratories lasted six months,
and the first test in Washington was
a complete success.
The receiver itself is built like a
safe. The entire cabinet is made of
heavy metal, Each stage is shielded
by solid metal wall so that each
stage is virtually a Theoretically seal
ed compartment with Its tuning ele-
ment. Yet the receiver weighs only
rs pounds. The purchase price is
understood to be well in the four fig
ures.

RAWLINS SECOND
BALL GAME TURNS
INTO TRACK MEET

With both sides piIing up big
scores due to the down slope from
the box. the game played between
Rawlins and Superior ON the latter's
diamond soon became a track meet.
Pitchers were compelled by the lay
of the land to pitch up hill and a
deep ditch running well across the
outtield made close play impossible.
Rawlins probably hung up a record
that will stand for the year when
She swatted out five home runs in
succession at the first of the third
inning. The final score was 2S to
35 with Rawlins on the wrong end.
Superior, under the present agree
ment, will soon play the local team
on the Rawlins diamond, when a
better idea of relative strength may
be had.
