CAMBRIDGE, Md. october 16.-
Eighteen-inch waves piled up by 30
mile-an-hour wind early this morning
subjected the miniature seadrome
launched here yesterday to an unex-
pected test. The model was not dis
turbed by the waves or wind according
to e. r. Armstrong, the inventor and
remained level throughout the storm
The 18-inch waves. Mr. Armstrong
said, were equivalent to 45-foot waves
on the full sized Seadrome to be placed
in the Atlantic ocean approximately
half way between New York and Ber-
muda Tests today were to be conduct
ed in the Choptank River at Cambridge.
After the model was fioated yesterday
it was towed to a buoy about a mile
from shore. instrument readings taken
during the morning recorded water
currents and wind resistance and their
effects. AS the tests continue over a
period of three weeks the model will be
moved from the river into Chesapeake
Bay.

BRUSSELS, october 16.-The
Louvain tribunal today pro-
nounced Judgment in favor of
Whitney Warren, New York arch
itect, who designed the recon-
structed Eouvain University, in
his dispute with the university
over an inscription to be placed
on a balustrade of the library.
The inscription, which commemo-
rated the destruction of the uni
versity by "Teutonic fury" was
considered Objectionable by the
university because it tended
to revive memories Of wartime
hatred.
The university was ordered by
the court to replace the balus-
trade, which had been destroyed
in fighting over the propriety Of
the inscription, at its own cost
and to insert the original inScrip-
ton desired by Mr.. Warren and
approved by Cardinal Mercier.
