STUDENTS JUDGE
/ PHOTOS FAULT|LY
Nental Pictures of Types Fail
to Tally With Realities at
Dartmouth.
Special Dispatch to The Star.


PHILADELPHIA, November 26.-
why Senators get mistaken for boil
sheviks and financiers for bootIaggers
when an individual attempts to Judge
their places in life by looking at
photographs is explained by DIR.
Stuart a. Rice, psychologist at the
University Of Pennsylvania. Dr. Rice
mas just reported results of an inveS-
tgation in which 25S students at
dartmouth College acted as judges of
personality.
The reason why a human beings
face cannot he accurately rated in
Character and intelligence by the OBJ
servation method, just as horses and
dogs are judged at prize shows, Is
traced to the fact that each person
carries about in his mind type pic
tures Of what "a king, a criminal or a
scholar should look like. These
mental pictures, or stereotypes, Dr.
1ice explains, are made up to a con.
Siderable degree of superficial ear
marks such as the cut of the hair, the
mode Of wearing collar and tie and
Similar details of appearance.
Test With Pictures.
In the test the college students
were shown pictures of nine indi-
two years ago. They We're told that
one of the nine was a Senator, one a
labor leader two We're manufacturers,
and 50 on. and each picture was to
be fitted with the most suitable title.
Dr. Rice reports that In the case
OF kruSSIn, the Soviet envoy, a wing
collar, Van Dyke beard and mOuStache
contribute to an appearance that may
be described as distinguished, and
which no doubt led to SO identifca-
tiOnS as the United States Senator, in
Comparison with nine as a bolshevik
and none rs a labor leader. Senator
Pepper received as many or more
ldentitcations as labor leader, boil
shevik. tinanCier. editor politician and
manufacturer than he received in his
own senatorial capacity.
'BO0tlegger" Is Identified.
'"1'ho largest number of correct
hcntifications was made in the case
Of the alleged bootlegger This in
0'Nldual alone was pictured in outdoor
Costume. He is shown in a heavy
ONercuat with up-turned collar, Il cap,
tortoise-Shell glasses and cigar grip.

RENEW STUDY OF MARS

In the early hours of tomorrow
morning astronomers and laymen
will begin their biennial study of the
neighboring planet of Mars for signs
OF living Martians.
Tonight the path of the moon will
bring it close to the brilliant red
star, and five days later, Mars will
be closest to the earth in its two
year orbit. In August 1924, Mars
was about seven million miles closer
than it will be this month, but the
planet will be much higher above
the horizon this time and hence
more easily studied.

OUT TESTIMONY
SENATE INQUIRY
Involves Anti-Saloon League
in Spending Money in
Washington Campaign

SEATTLE, Ucu. 26.-B. \. Hicks,
State Superintendent of the Anti
Saloon League, testifying late yester-
day in the Senate Committee in
quiry directed against the campaign
funds of A. Scott Bullitt Democratic
Candidate for United States Senator,
that he received $500 from the Ma
tional Headquarters for campaign
purposes.
Millard T. Harrison, of Seattle,
Collector of Customs, said he solicit
ed $4,000 for United States Senator
Wesley l.. Jones' campaign. He de-
MED he permitted the collection of
campaign funds from customs EN-
ployees
A. Scott Bulltt asked him about
Customs Inspector named John
Whittig being discharged because he
refused to work for Jones in his
present campaign.
Harrison said he was unable to re-
call anything about Whittig.
Collector of Internal Revenue
Burns Poe, of Tacoma, said he con
tributed $l36 to the campaign.
Big Campaign Fund
J. F. Douglas, former member OF
the Republican State Finance Com
mittee, testified that the party
raised $159,000 in the state in the

Bulltt, who called Douglas, ex-
planned that the evidence offered
