NAVY CONFIRMS
HEAV|SIDE
THEORY
Finds Upper Air Holds
Stratum Which Reflects
Radio Waves.

WASHINGTON, D. C., Aug. 90
Information expected to lead to de-
cided improvements in radio has been
collected by the naval research labra-
tory working in cooperation with the
Carnegie Institute of Washington.
Secretary Wilbur in announcing the
discoveries indicated that the work
would 70 a long way to eliminating
fading" from wireless communion
ton. and that IL already had been
carried to a point where 1t could be
stated definitely that high frequency
transmitting station could be built for
about 100000 instead OF present sta.
tons which cost approximately g.
100000.
LAYER THEORY UPHELD.
The new stations, he added, not
only would cost less but also would
give better service and longer range,
and could be operated much more
economically.
The Investigation confirmed the
-Heaviside- theory of an ionized
region in the higher levels Of the
earth's atmosphere. The ionized zone
was described as constituting "a cell
ing of the sky but additional re-
search will be required TO determine
its size, shape and exact location.
1t is however, known to lie more
than a hundred miles above the earth.
DETECTS WAVES.
This ionizing layer was found to
act as DETECTING surface TO electro
fncgnPfic uaVpS under which the
waves are guided around the world in
a manner similar in which a whisper
ed sound wave runs under the dome
Of the capital in this city and the
dome of ST. Paul's Cathedral in
london.
The results attained in the investi-
CATION were based upon an analysis
of Phenomenon known as skip dis
tame which was checked by a ne
chanical device by means Of which
the effective distance Of the defect
ing layer was measured. ]

1926 BUICK IS
SHOWN HERE BY
RAY c. ROBERTS

Ray c. Roberts introduced the
1926 model Bucks on the local show
room floor yesterday. A great deal
of interest had been aroused by ru-
mors Of the changes in models and
a cut in prices. Many new features
have been added to the new line
and a sharp cut in prices is in eff
feet.
Once again Buick has demonstrat-
ed the marvellous resources and abil-
tiles of the automobile industry in
bringing out a new car with many
engineering achievements and en-
haneed beauty. Lower prices are
announced in both standard and
master skies, despite the many i'm
provements. 1t affects both closed
and open models.
The complete line consists of Is
models, six on the standard six
chassis and ten on the master six
chassis. The valve in -the-head en-
gine, with added power, is continued
thus silencing persistent rumors that
Buick intended adopting Il different
type of motor.
Here Are Changes
Some of the important improve
ments incorporated in the latest
Bucks are:
Additional speed, torque and pow
er; engines of 10 horsepower in the
master skies and 60 horsepower in
the standard line.
Stronger and heavier frames,
clutch, transmission, drive shaft and
rear axle to compensate for the
greater power of the engine.
An air cleaner, oil filter and gaso-
line strainer, which, with the Buick
sealed chassis, prevent dirt from
entering any Of the moving parts.
Two-unit electrical system spe-
cially designed by Buick and Delco
engineers.
Heavier wheels with larger low
pressure tires.
Newly designed water pump re-
qulring but one packing.
Bodies by Fisher
All closed models are by Fisher
and upholstered in quality plush.
Door locks integral in new type
bar handles. All models, open and
closed, finished in attractive shades
of Duco; sport models in duo tone
DucO.
The addition of air cleaner, oil
filter and gasoline strainer is in
harmony with the sealed chassis
long featured by Buick. These
three units have no moving parts
to require adjustment, require no
power, and are thoroughly auto
matte. They only require occa
sional cleaning to remove the dirt
and CRIME gathered from the air,
fuel and oil.
Have Permanent Tops
All open models, except the
master six sport touring and road
ster, have newly designed perma
nent tops, which give the utmost
snugness in curtain fit, and also per
init quick and easy installation 0.
, winter glass Enclosures.

LEGION FUND IS

Contributions continue to be re-
ceived for the American Legion en-
dowment fund, according to Hugh
r. Osborn. chairman of the pndow-
ment fund committee of Boyce At
en- Post, who likened the campaign
conducted by the post to SNOWFALL
rolling down hill, gathering every
thing in it's path.
The total reported up to noon to-
day is $l292.24 with several pledges
of contributions yet to be redeem
ed.
So successful was the campaign,
that it has been a big surprise to
the members of the legion, many of
whom expressed doubt, previous to
the campaign that 5000 could be
raised here at this time of the year.
The committee in charge went
ahead, however, and their success
justifies the faith they had in the
people of FL Centre.
