Paris, Sept. o7 P,-Professor Fer dinando Cazzamali of the University Of Milan, who two years ago made the startling assertion that the hu- man brain emits radio waves, now claims to have secured photographic records Of these emanations.
 A paper describing his exper- tlonal Congress for Psychic Re search, which opened here last eve ming Professor CazZam mali wrote that, in order 10 make his studies more complete in regard to the pSycho- scnsorial phenomena of the brain. he had constructed an apparatus containing q. s"nsitized plate.
 Subjects in q state of hypnosis were placed, one after the other. in room with this apparatus. and later it was found that the sensitizod plates were marked with lines and blotches
