tise for the purchase of granite for the

A new field for. protection of original

ticles is opened in the resolution intro

rights exist in original ideas OF COM
binations of ideas, II definitely formu-
lated and forwarded and III their use
irrespective Of whether they are COM
bined with physical or tangible means
Of making practical application Of them.
The subject warrants careful inVeSti-
cation. Senator King declared III the
resolution, and he asks that the com
mittee on patents make report not
later than April IS, 1880.
The resolution is explained by Fair
fax Naulty, Washington attorney. who
Is interested in the bill. He points out
that Senator Kings resolution contem-
plates no SuperSeding Of, or even
change in. the present patent and copy
right laws, but merely seeks to open
another, entirely new field for protec-
Non of creative work, this time In the

whether there is something tangible t.
show for the idea
The new protection" he declared
would have to be adiudicated by the
courts Just as patent has to be now"

Right now Duplin IS captain Of
the baseball team and its regular
left fielder. Despite the fact that
the team has got away to q bad
start this year it would not be sur
prising to see the nine redeem itself
under his aggressive leadership and
close its year with . winning
season.
Injuries to q couple Of regular
infielders with consequent sloppy
defensive play has cost the Hill
toppers heavily. With the return
of Walter Morris to third base and
Johnny Bozek to first base in the
near future this defect should be
remedied and the team probably
will then hit a winning stride.
A year ago Duplin was rated
only as 3 reserve Outfieldef.
Before the season was half over
he had won himself q position
az the regular left gardner and
has held that job i'm every game
since then. lin football he was
''lloped" to be the second string
quarterback.
What he did on the gridiron Is
history. Besides being the brains
OF the backfield he was the most
dependable ball carrier on the
team. Especially was this true
when the team advanced inside the
enemy's 2O-yard line. He mixed
his plays with deception, cunning
and power and the fact that he car
ried the ball 90 often himself with
in the scoring zone was not mott
waited by vainglory. He was the
one man who could carry it ana
gain--and he knew it--and he did
it.
He suffered q broken leg in the
Carnegie game last fall before the
end of the first half and his loss
to the team gave Tech an advantage
which they turned into a 100 vic
tory.
His leg mended nicely and he
suffers no disadvantage from It as
he ranges far and wide in left field
now to haul in flies and cut down
what would be extra base knocks
by an accurate and powerful throw
ing arm.
AT the plaLG ne - arrays aeNAA,
gerous. His home run against
Holy Cross Saturday was one Of
the longest wallops registered on
the Hilltop lot, and all season long
he has been hitting the ball right
OH the nose but, unfortunately
most Of these smashes have been
right at some fielder.
1t Is almost safe to say that he
will shake this jinx soon and start

him well up in the averages.
