Cracked Concrete Knits
 and Becomes Stronger

CHICAGO, July g (P-Concrete
 that has been cracked will knit to-
 gether again according to tests just
 completed here by Prof Duff A.
 Abrams at Lewis Institute. These are
 said to be the first tests of the kind
 ever made.
 Concrete cylinders once cracked and retested after eight years exposure to the weather were found to be more
 than two and one-quarter times as strong as they were when the original test was made. When they were ex- amined before retesting, practically all the cracks caused by the high pres sure had disappeared. It was known that concrete gained in strength with age, but Prof. Abrams test gave defi- nlte knowledge concerning the healing properties of concrete which was kept moist.
 The original test was made in 1917 by applying an average pressure of one and one-fifth tons per square inch to number of 2S-day old concrete cvl- finders, 6 by 12 inches, which was suf- f1cient to cause cracking. This month another compressive strength test was made with these same cylinders which then withstood an average pressure of more than two and a half tons ner square inch, pressure 228 percent as great as the blocks were able to bear eight years ago.
 Fine cracks which appeared in a test concrete bridge when it was suh- Jected to a tremendous load. later closed up. The cracks were carefully mapped and photographed after two tests had been made. A year later when the bridge was over- loaded again, comparison revealed the | old cracks did not reopen, but new cracks appeared under the unusual i strain. Prof. Abrams stated that this condition was due to the healing of the cracks and the forming of a joint even stronger than the unbroken con. crete.

The cutter Haida's baseball team stood the Seward team on their ears

 The game went six innings with Bo- gart and Rood doing the twirling for Seward and R. c. Robinson in the box for the sailors. Bogart went four of the six innings, pitching good ball considering his sore arm from Satur- days game, keeping the hits we'll scattered. Robinson had the locals on his hip, they failing to connect with many solid punches. Gus Man. they caught few innings for Seward displaying much of his old time prow- ess and smacking the ball a couple of times at bat

Comment was heard about the exceptional good work of the catcher, Alderdice, until recently a member of university team In the infield Baker was the outstanding star of both teams. Three times he made sensational stops of line drives. which otherwise would have been good clean hits.
 The only alibi the Seward boys have is that they played loose game in the field. The umpire, a member of the crew, Carroll, worked through the game in satisfactory manner to both sides, with little protest being heard over his decisions.

Scientists In House Car
 To Study Migratory Birds

MCPHERSON, Kans., July 9 (p)- A study of bird life from South Da kota to Mexico City and back along the western coast of Mexico and the ! United States to Canada will be made this summer by Prof. H. T. Nininger head of the biology department of McPherson College here.
 Prof. Nininger will make the trip under the auspices of the National Ornithology Society and it is expect ed to result in the most important dis coveries in the interests of ornithol- ogy.
 The party will start from western South Dakota and travel in a house car built especially for the purpose. Care will be taken to keep we'll ahead of cold weather so that the birds can be studied in advance of the migra- tory period for the American species. Crossing the Rio Grande, the party will continue south, gathering data on the species both rare and common to Mexico. While there the migratory birds of the Northland, which will have sought winter quarters, will be closely observed
 From the City of Mexico, Prof. Min lnger will move northward travelling along the western coast of Mexico and the United States until the Canadian border is reached.
 . Colleges and universities along the route in both countries have asked for statements as to the result of his findings.
