 'Iater l was took 10 the hospital in n nice white automobile with bell on it and they kept ringin' the bell and l had nice time, except for the fact that couldn't feel nothin' below my neck. But I'm foelin' better, thanks Say, you ot- ter sec mo drive automobile!"
 Impressions and experiences of a man finding his way into a local moving picture thcater for a matinee performance:
 Leaves the sunny street his eyes accustomed to the light of day. En- ters the cavern leading to the lobby, barely hesitating to get ticket. En- ters theater proper.
 Looks around; darkness to right, darkness to left, etc, Sees a glm- mer on the stage, evidently the screen, Sees nothing else, his eyes refusing to be in Il hurry 10 get ac- customed to the tunnel-like dark ness.
 Stands around like fool for a minute and then decides it is time to get seat. Moves forward down an aisle.
 Peers 10 right and left but without much success. Cannot find a seat All appear 10 be occupied, and those that are not look no different than the others. Pupils of the eyes dis tend in an effort to conquer the darkness, but it takes time; mean while he's standing in the aisle won dering whether 1t wouldn't be better | to appeal to an usher. Mutters that he should have done so in the first place, but decides to take further chances and go it alone. Makes a dive 10 get into a seat Pushes a hand in the face of a fair damsel he never saw before and apologies.
 Hurriedly backs up and moves across the aisle nd tlies to enter another seat appearing empty. Finds himself stumbling over the lap of woman and again beats retreat, after humbly asking her pardon. Is rewarded with a giggle. Thinks it about time his eyesight came back and doubts his ability to get 8 seat without 1t; but makes another trial
 This time he goes little further forward and makes another plunge. Again comes into violent contact with a womanly person. But this time he changes his technic.
 Pardon me, but will you let me know if there's 8 seat in this row just arrived from the outside and cant see a thing"
 "Yes, John. there's a seat right here beside me; am surprised to find you here, as I thought you were working"
 And then he sat down beside his wife.

RAGING MOTORBOATS
 TO RUN THIS SUMMER
 AT AMAZING SPEEDS

DETROIT, Apr. 7.-The greatest speed test of all time, so fal as pow CT boats are concerned. ;5 antici- pated when Commodore Gar Wood and a French driver, ds yet un- named. match skill and craft on the Detroit river for the Harn SwOrrh trophy. When the trophy last NaS lctended Wood was prepare1 to show speed of between SD aud 90 miles an hour The speed was not necessary, however, for his oppo- nent met with mishap and sank be- fore the race was completed
 That was in 1921, and Woods Miss America H.. which had developed more than so miles an hour in off cial trials, never has been raced since. A new craft of the hydro plane type, powered as was Miss Am erica H., with four Liberty motors Of 12 cylinders each, probably will be built for Wood to defend the "B. I. IT," as the Harmsworth off cially is designated.
 Since the deed of gift covering the gold cup trophy has been revised to limit competition to craft of the run about type, the British International Trophy is the only remaining event that gives free rein to contestants seeking speed records. The gold cup went back east last fall for the first time since 1915.
 Wood first won the Harmsworth at Cowes, England, in 1920, and sue cessfully defended it in Detroit in 1921. Whether he can make it three straight victories, a feat so far un- accomplished by any other American power boat racer, is a question be- ing discussed by his local support CTS.
 Woods defender in 1921 was sin gle step hydroplane. Since that time, however, he has obtained the patents on multiple step hydroplanes, and it is known he plans the fastest craft that ever has skinned the sur face of a racing course.
 The committee in charge of the local regatta is making tentative plans for threeday contest. Under the rules governing the "B. I. IT," a contesting country may enter several boats and must win two heats to lift the trophy. The heats will be from 30 to 40 knots, to be decided by the racing committee.

Rocky Mountain Fever
 May Yield to Vaccine
(By Associated Press)

SAN FRANCISCO, Apr, 7.-The State Board of Health reports that the outlook is encouraging for the production of vaccine to make peO- pie immune from Rocky Mountain fever dreaded disease in the pla- teau regions of the Far West.
 The board quotes this report from Montana: "The research laboratory of the United States public health service at Hamilton is doing valu- able work in its attempt to solve the whole Rocky Mountain spotted fever problem. Drs Spencer and Parker have devoted their best ef- forts to the perfecting of an immun- izing vaccine. At the present time the outlook is most encouraging. pr. Spencer, with the courage of his convictions, administered to himself the first dose of this vaccine ever administered to a human A recent report from the doctor indicates that he has been able to immunize guinea pigs with his own blood serum. This would tend to show that the doctor has succeeded in producing vac cine of very great value"
 The disease is spread by ticks. It has a high mortality percentage. Re cent figures show a gradual diminu- tion in the number of cases.

Jazz Dancers Barred
 from London Suburb
fBy Associated Press)

EDMONTON, Eng, Apr. 7.-Jazz music has been barred at all munici- pal dances by the Edmonton Urban Council, this being the first London suburb to take such action.
 The council took this step be- cause of numerous complaints from citizens who objected to dances of "the wild, bodywaggling type" T. J. Harrington, council chairman, said jazz would not be permitted hereaf- ter at the town dances chiefly be- cause jazz dancers during waltzes took up too much space, their move ments interfering with the ortho- dox dancers and, besides, jazz ing was neither graceful nor digni- fed"

AIR EXPERTS DELIMIT ALTITUDE TO WHICH
 MAN IS ABLE TO FLY
(By Associated Press)

WASHINGTON, D. C., Apr. 7.- Flight surgeons of the army air ser vice believe that man has about reached the maximum flying speed at which he can suddenly change di- rection, owing to the centrifugal force eXerted on the body and it's effect on the blood. This speed is placed in the vicinity of 250 miles an hour. The limit of speed on straighta- way course, they say, can probably be placed much higher than is now mechanically possible, but expeli- ence will have to write the actua! figure The height limit, they add, is around 45,000 feet.
 This contention regarding the max imum speed for turning, the flight surgeons point out, is pred!cated up- on the experience of Lieutenan. All win J. Williams, of the navy, at the Pulitzer air races at St. Louis in Oc- tober, 1928, who said he became practically unconscious at the turns of the triangular course, when he rounded at 243.67 miles an hour.
 The flyer at the turn banks his craft at right angles, the centrifugal force acting at right angles to the new direction of travel and the blood being carried away from the head toward the stomach, and prob ably even into the legs, causes faint ness and possibly unconsciousness Blood circulation quickly adjusts it. self the flight surgeons say, and the direction of centrifugal force is rapidly changed, although at turns at very high speeds in airplanes, brain injury or rupture of vital blood vessel might result.
 Even when supplied with oxygen, the flight surgeons hold, an aviator could not survive beyond height of 45,000 feet, under ordinary circum- stances, because the available oXy- gen pressure in the lungs would be too low to sustain life.
 Between 23,000 and 25,000 feet is the upper limit of consciousness" without oxygen, say the flight sur geons, and at higher attitudes oxy gen is indispensable. Only if in- closed in a cabinet or suit in which the barometric pressure were kept at a degree compatible with life, would it be possible to ascend be- yond the 45,OO0 limit, with suitable arrangement made for disposing of the surplus carbon dioXide.
 The aviator experiences, among other things, as the result of high altitude flights, sleepiness, uncontrOl- led emotion, including giggling, sing ing or laughter; muscular weakness, shortness of breath, impairment of the intellect and judgment and i'm pairment of vision and hearing. These are cheifly due, medical men explain to a lack of oxygen in the brain.
 There are 50 army flight surgeons, stationed at different flying fields, all on flying status. A flight medical school is maintained at Mitchell Field, N. Y., where courses are given selected medical officers picked for aviation duty. Aviation psychology forms a large share of their work, and they are acquainted with first hand conditions of the men who go up in the air in ships.
 The National Aeronautic Associa- tion's records show that the pres ent maximum altitude record is held by a French flyer with 39,5S6 feet and the speed record in a straighta way course is held by another French airman at 2784S miles an hour

Two simple principles applied to the

operator to keep In tune with all
waves from 200 to coo meters. If a

the antenna, ii has virtually the same
effect as increasing the wave o. the

pick up higher wave lengths. Inc
larger the coil the greater viii De inc
increase in wave length. If variable
condenser is placed in series with the
antenna or ground wire, the wave
length range of the set is reduced. Inc
smaller the capacity of the condenser
the greater will be the cut In wave
length. TO place coil in series with
the antenna, connect the lead-in wire
to one end of the coil and run WIG

A series condenser is connected the
