CALCULATIONS MADE AT BU- REAU OF STANDARDS DI-
 RECTOR

WASHINGTON, Jan. 19. (P)-The Bureau of Standards is at work on the problem of determining with greater accuracy than has ever been achieved, the weight of the earth. The approximate weight has long been known. It is about 6,OOo,OOO,OOO OOO,- OOO,OOO,OOO tons.
 Dr. George K. Burgess, director of the bureau, was one of the first Amer jeans ot interest himself in the prob lem, something over 25 years ago, at the Sorbonne, in Paris. He has only recently taken up the work again, and in his annual report, just made public, he summarizes the work now being done as follows:
 "The Newtonian constant of gravita- tion is one of the Fundamentally i'm portant constants of nature like the speed of light and Planck's constant of action. It occurs in the formula giving the gravitation attraction of any two bodies for each other and is independent of the nature of the at tracing bodies. On this later point Einstein based his theory of gravi- tation.

RECENT INVASION OF FIERCE HAWKS WAS
 IN QUEST 0F F00D
GAME FIELDS OF BORDER STATES THREATENED BY GosHAWKs
 FROM THE NORTH

NEW YORK, Jan. 20. (P-Early in November, as was reported, evidence was noted in northern New York of an approaching invasion of the gos- hawk, that ferocious falcon of the North, which on occasion advances from Canada in formidable numbers into the northern border of the Unit ed States and creates great havoc among partridge, quail, wild ducks and other species of birds.
 These irregular forays of the gos- hawk are believed to occur in sea- sons of the scarcity of the varying hare or snowshoe rabbit in the natu- ral habitat of the gOsnawx m the far northern forests, the hawks being driven farther south in search of food.
 Taxidermists have reported num- bers of the hawks being prot to them for mounting who had not mounted goshawk for years. Sportsmen re- ported seeing them frequently in that region.
 The goshawk is sanguinary and vicious killer. While it's chief food is the northern hare in it's usual range, it is a relentless enemy of the ruffled grouse, and will remain in the vicinity of a family of grouse until the last individual is killed and eaten. It hunts after the fashion of a pan ther, darting down on it's unsuspect- ing victim from a perch in some lark evergreen.
 The goshawk is easily recognized, being the largest of the falcons, of which the Cooper's, and the sharp shinned hawks, the prairie falcon and the gyrfalcon are examples. It is al dark colored hawk with very pro nounced barrel markings. Sports men should organize energetic cam paigns of eradication against this de- structive hawk wherever it appears.

BREVTIES

ROCKVILLE, Md. Jan. 1s.-The
Rockville Parent. Teacher Associa-
ton has begun agitation for an
enlarged high shool building at
Rockville and with that end in
view has. through its president,
Mrs. y. SomerVell Dawson, issued
a statement designed to acquaint
the public with the most urgent
needs of the institution.
Mrs. Dawson points out that the
Rockville school has approximately
TOO pupils and is the largest IN
the county and, therefore, serves
the greatest number Of the county's
citizens. The need of more room,
she states. is rapidly becoming
serious. The statement sets forth
that all OF the class rooms are
badly crowded and one room is all
that is available for four labora-
tories, chemistry. science, biology
and physics. while the cafeteria
seats only 40 students. or ebout
of the pupils are forced to eat
and that a very large majority
OF the pupils are forced 20 eat
their lunches in classrooms, balls
and even @lavatories.
Mrs. Dawson calls attention to
the fact that the high schools at
Damascus, Gaithersburg, Pooles-
vile and Sandy Spring have
gymnasiums of their own and the
Silver Spring Takoma Park school
has the town gymnasium avail
able.
Mrs. Dawson holds that the ad-
dition of but two rooms to the
Rockville school, as, it is under
stod, is planned, will not meet the
emergency.
The seth birthday anniversary
of Mrs Lucy B. Gordon was cele-
brated Monday evening at the
home of her son-in-law and daughter
Mr.. and Mrs. Charles E. England,
in Rockville.
The Rockville town authorities
are engaged in a survey to ascertain
the most urgent needs of the town
in the event that it is decided, as
has been proposed, to ask the Leg.
islature for authority to issue bonds
for the extension of. the water and
sewer systems, construction of side.
walks and other improvements.
Rockville has taxable basis of
approximately $1,700,000 and its
bonded indebtedness is but $67. 900.
Its tax rate is not regarded as high
and there seems to be a pretty gem
eral feeling that a reasonable bond
issue at this time would not entail
much of hardship upon the prop
erty owners. Action by the legisla-
ture is held likely.

Bearing out reports of good bust

Dodge Brothers, Inc, announce that
retail deliveries of Graham Brothers
trucks and commercial cars in the
United States and Canada during
the week ended June Is exceeded
the corresponding week OF any pre-

The record of 1,415 trucks and
commercial cars delivered during
this one week to domestic and
Canadian purchasers is the biggest
so far in 1927, continuing the
marked upward trend since last
January.

indicated by Graham Brothers re-
markable increases in sales, Dodge
Brothers dealers, who sell and serv-
ice these trucks, report that the re-
cent advances in design and per-
Torrance of Graham Brothers

FLIERS PRAISE OIL
ChamberIin Used Pennzoil
on Ocean Hop.

Eagerly awaited DATA on the motor
performance of the, New York to
Germany Bellanca plane has just
been received by officials of the
Pennzoil Company, Oil City, Pa.
A cablegram signed by Clarence
D. Chamberlin, states that only six
and one-half gallons of Pennzoil
motor oil were consumed in the
flight of more than $500 miles.
This is slightly more than one
half of the amount expected to be
used by the flyers who prepared fer
their hazardous journey on the basis
of information received on the
previous transatlantic flight.
In April when Chamberlin made
the worlds record endurance flight
in the same plane, he also used
Pennzoil. 1t was the performance
of the oil in that test that led to its
selection for his more dramatic
fight.

HOW TO TOUR CANADA
Customs Rules Explained by
Auburn Manager.

1T is essential that the tourist
in Canada should have his car
registered and his valuables listed
with the American customs author
ities," according to r. S. Wiley, ex-
port manager of the Auburn Auto
mobile Company
nat the port of entry the driver
must show his card license, issued
by the State in whicll-he lives. The
driver is then issued duplicate of
the registration card, which must
be returned at the port of entry to
the United States.
"a United States tourist is
privileged to remain in Canada for
a period of ninety days. The first
permit is for thirty days duration.
This permit may be renewed twice.
"a six months permit may be OBJ
tanned by making a deposit of $25.
In addition bond for double the
amount of duty of the car and the
other valuables taken into the coun-
try, must be given. The deposit
and the bond VIII be returned if the
tourist does not exceed the limit of
six months.
Certain exemptions are made on
goods purchased in Canada which
are to be returned to the United
States, although everything must
be declared at the port of entry.
Forty cigars and 100 cigarettes may
be returned duty free, but tire
bought to replace one worn out on
the Canadian roads, must be de-
clared."
