ATLANTIC CITY, July 24, P- The design for the arch of light to span the famous boardwalk at At lantic City this summer in honor of Thomas A. Edison and the 50th birthday of the incandescent lamp stimulates a curtain.
 The design is to hang high above the boardwalk between two 57-foot towers of light. It is suggestive of a broad band of lace, 60 feet wide. In it's center is a medal, etched in light, worded to identify the event.
 The arch will contain 25,OOO jewels, which are reflectors each two inches in diameter, cut much after the style of diamonds.
