Richard Dix Popular
With Texas Cowboys

That Richard Dix is as good
fellow in real life as he is upon
the screen is the firm conviction
Of thirty-two Texas cowboys, who
were recently honored with the
stars presence when he turned
down an invitation to eat in the
ranch-house so as to dine with
them on the rough board tables
Of the cow-hands' chuck-room.
On a location thirty miles out
of Houston, Texas, where the Dix
company was filming scenes for
Arthur Stringer's sWomanhand-
led" two separate tables were
laid for each meal. At one table,
in the raneh-house, was room for
the director, the players and mem
bers of the staff. At the other,
located in the ranch chuck-hall,
were accommodation for the cow
boys.
Every noon, despite the fact
that the motion picture COM
pany's table was covered with a
linen table-cloth and silver cut
lery was used, Dix insisted upon
going out to the chuck-house and
''helpin' hisself" to the ranch
hands simple food.
There certainly amt nuthin'
snobbish about him." said one
rawboned cowboy. "I allus had
the impression that these movin-

An artificial ocean has had its part
IN the development of the Western
Electric Company,s permalloy cabl,
which was perfected through several
years OF patient labor and research or
the part OF the Bell Telephone Labora-
tories, and then, overnight, revolution
lied submarine cable transmission. The
first cable OF the new type was laid
cetween the Azores and New York
q link b connect the Azores with
Emden, Germany, is under Inanufao
ttire. and contracts have been signed
Tor pernalloy cable to be laid from
Suva to Tanning Island in the Pacific.
Over these new cables, transmission is
possible at from three to FIVE times
the rate of speed over cables OF the
old type of the same size.
The artificial ocean became neces
sary for several reasons. A permallo
tape is wranaed around the copper
conductor OF the cable to increase its
inductance, and hence the efficiency OF
transmission. Pernialloy is new
alloy OF iron and nickel which ha
remarkable magnetic properties; il is
in fact, the most magnetic substanc
known. Shortly after the invention
OF this alloy, it was found that H.
magnetic properties OF the metal ar
quite sensitive to mechanical stresses
and it was necessary to find if sucl
stresses would be present under dee,
sea conditions Would the customar
methods OF cabs manufacture b
satisfactory when used with the sensi
tive permalloy, or what changes should
be madeS To answer these questions,
sample cables had to be made and
tested under deep sea conditions.
The most important deep sea con-
dition is the great pressure, Since
everything at the bottom OF the ocean
is supporting the pressure of all the
water above it. Recalling the weight
of a cubic foot OF water, it turns
OFT that the pressure one statue mile
down in the ocean is somewhat more
than a long ton per square inch. A
single square foot of the sea bottom
only one mile down supports a weight
OF water greater than a couple Of
heavily loaded freight cars. What
such pressureS might do to permalloy-
loaded cable was a question which had
