'kilocycle' Taking Place
 of the Word Wavelength'

Washington, Aug. 20 Pl-A new world "kilocycIe," gradually is taking the place Of the word "wavelength' in the vocabulary of radio fans. The department of commerce explained in statement today that the mark ing or logging of dials is found to have certain advantages in new term kilocycle. which means frequency, or the number of waves per second.
 Just as musician" the depart ment said, "can vary the number Of oscillations of his vocal chords, but cannot control the length Of tho sound waves, so a radio station can vary the number of oscillations per second, and let the wave lengths hc what they will.
 ITO obtain the frequency when th, wave length in meters is known di vide S0o,00o by the wave length in meters, The answer Is in kilocyclrs Likewise the other way round, di. vide 3o0,0o0 by the number of kilo- cycles to get meters"

NEW YORK VOTERS
 HEARING ALL SIDES
Primary Campaign Has Reached
 Rally Stage Today

New York, Aug. 20 Pl-As the municipal primary campaign plung- ed into the rally stage today, the re- publicans were on record as regard ing the breach in democratic ranks as a fight between Governor Smith and William Randolph Hearst for control of New York delegates 10 the next democratic national convention.
 The views were expressed by Charles D. Hilles, republican na- tional committeeman and city chair man.
 Hearst Is consumed by his ha- tired Of Governor Smith," MT. Hilles said yesterday in speech in behalf of Frank D. Waterman, organization republican for mayor. Smith Is de- termined to unseat Mayor Hylan and Hearst. A democratic leader of Stat en Island is reported as saying that this is a fight to determine who will control the democratic party in New York: that if Senator Walker wins in the primaries, Governor Smith will name the delegates to the dem- ocratic national convention in 1928, whereas if Hylan wins, Hearst will name those delegates. That is the is- sue.
 "Tammany is responsible for eight years of municipal rule so bad that even Tammany cannot stand for it. Are we 10 abandon the city to the gentlemen of Fourteenth street tTammany HalD who are now en- gagged in scuttling their own ship?
 Why should Hearst be vindcated and ecorated-Hearst who was hos tile 10 England, who damned roy atty. who. was received by the king, and who now buys castle in Ire land"
 What interest have our 6.000.o people in the personnel of the dele gation to the 1928 convention? Why should our citizens elect city ticket for the sole purpose of enabling Hearst Hylan's absentee landlord 10 hand-pick delegates to the successor of the Madison Square circus Of 1922
 William NJ. Bennett, one of two republican insurgent candidates, however, charged Mir, Hilles with pursuing rule or ruin" policy which will scuttle as well the repub- lican ship. Mir. Bennett denounced the "socialistic" schemes of munich pal transit ownership advanced by Mayor Hylan and Senator Walker.

of the most vigorous advocates of cooperative news gathering and as one of the founders Of The Asso- ciated Press. based on this princi- pie. From 1S94 to 1900 he was president of The Associated Press when 1t was incorporated under the laws of Illinois.
 From 1900 he had been a mem Der of the board of directors of the present organization.
 Mir. Lawson was a native Chica- soan, born here September g, 1850, the son of lver and Melng Lawson. He was educated at Philips Acad emy, Andover, Mass, and returned to Chicago 10 learn the rudlments of the newspaper business under his father, who established the scandi- navian. Upon the death Of the father, MT. Lawson assumed charge of the publishing business. He was thus engaged when he met Melville F. Stone, later associated with MT. Lawson in the publication of the News and afterwards general man ager and now counsellor for The Ag- sociated Press.
 MT. Stone established the Chicago News, rented quarters in the Scan- dinavian office to get out his paper and published the first issue Christ mas Day, 1875. Shortly after Mir Stones two partners sold out to him and in July 1876, Mr. Stone In turn sold this interest to Mir. Lawson who took charge of the paper with MT. Stone as editor.
 Paper Independent
 To preserve the independence of the paper, each man agreed to buy no scurlties of public service cor porations from his share of the profits. They succeeded and in 1881 started morning edition and seven years later NIT. Lawson purchased Mir. Stones interest and became sole proprietor.
 Soon afterward he changed the name of his morning paper to the Chicago Record, later merging il with the Times Herald when he call. ed 1t the Record Herald Because he did not wish to be connected with a paper publishing on Sunday, he turned over the property of thu Record Herald 10 bond holders ir 1914, making them present of the capital stock of a par value of s2,. I300,000.
 One of the principles to which Mir Lawson always attributed the sue. cess of the News was Its wealth ot features, particularly those of inter. est to women readers, including short stories anecdotes. table re. ceipes, fashions and small talk.
 In politics his newspaper prided Itself on its independence. Aside from his newspaper career MT. Law son was intensely interested in 2 great many public and civic enter. prises, many of them of phian. thropic character. and to these causes the influence of his news papers was frequently thrown.

How A. Il. Hines, animal trainer,
faced death quieting the two elephants
recently brought to the Breckenridge
Park 200 during the electrical storm

Saturday by Henry Carson his close

of heroism.
Mr.. Hines and Mr.. Carson were
visiting friends at farm house severa,
miles from San Antonio when the
menacing flashes Of tightening began
to play about the horizon.
Several years of circus life had
given Mr.. Hines a good knowledge
of how wild beasts act under adverse
conditions.
FEARS FOR BEASTS.
Mr.. Hines first thought was Of the
elephants.
The wind had risen and thunder
and tightening were more frequent by
the time the pair reached their auto
mobile.
Hines let the car wide open al
the way to the ZOO" Mr.. Carson said.
Arriving, Mr.. Hines found the big
elephant Juggling at the tree to which
he was tied, in an effort to reach
clear spot. Elephants are afraid
to remain under shelter during a
storm. %
Half-crazed by the threatening
storm, the elephant made heavy
lunges toward Mr.. Hines, who sought

trunk.
Exercising all of the tricks he had
learned while with the big show,
Mr.. Hines finally Quicted the elephant
and led him to a clear space.
BABY FOLLOWS.
The little elephant, chilled by the
rain, stood shivering with cold AMI

When Mr.. Hines approached, the
baby elephant began feeling all oyel
him with his trunk.
Assured that he was a friend, the
elephant nestled close 10 him and
followed him TO n small shed.
Mr.. Carson was the only one who
knew of the incident and gave a
realistic description Of how he watched
Mr.. Hines fearless actions at every
flash of lightning.
