~ the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, May 28.-Walter Spilkey,
psychologist, in charge of new equip
ment installed in the Chicago State
Hospital for the Insane, said today that
the use Of music, colors and perfumes
had been found effective in selected
cases of melancholia and chronic de-
preston"
The new equipment. given to the hes
pital by Samuel insult, the utilities
magnate, is known as the "colorama'
and throws upon a screen in darkened
room weaving of colored lights. some
soft. some vivid, all of which are de-
signed to supplement the effect of the
music and scents.
Patients in groups Of five are taken
into the room, where music carefully
prescribed to suit their mental condi-
ton Is played. Perfumed vapors are
then allowed to drift across the room,
while the "colorama" Is played upon
the screen.
IF our present successes are con-
4lrmed in the passage OF time the equip
ment will be used by other institutions. =
Spilkey said. He added, however. that
the treatment was not designed for all
ferns of insanity, nor for all patients,
but was being used only for certain Sc
1ected cases.

fans here were satisfied today
that although Renato Gardini
may be Italy's best grappler, he
is just another victim in the
eyes of Jim Londos, world heavy

Before a crowd of some $500
spectators at the Broadway Ar

veteran Italian in straight falls.
The first fall was accomplished
in 81 minutes and 13 seconds.
LondoS wasted little time on the

his man down in minutes and
46 seconds.

AMERICAN WINS
AS FISTS FLY

Catholic University recently
organized a boxing team. Last
night the nucleus Of good reserve
material for the leather pushers
was discovered as American Uni
versity's basketball team out
scored the Cardinals on the court,
29-19.
The already weakened Brook
landerS first featured a battle
royal early in the game, when
Oscar Sells, rangy American cen
ter, collided whit Lou Spinelli.
Spinelli's fighting blood was
aroused. He proved it by swing
ing in the general direction of
Sells and was banished from the
floor. But not until he had con-
nected.
Inspired by this display Of
aggresSiVeneSS, Buster Sheary,
husky football fullback, entered
the argument and, after barely
missing fire with an overland
right, also was chased to cover.
Catholic remained in the run
ming, however, and was trailing
by scant 6-to-5 count at half.
The final outburSt, rather the
main event, terminated in a draw
during the final half. It involved

Is there to assure each side

But, in bowling, an official Is
not deemed absolutely necessary,
no matter how important the
match may be. Ranking bowlers,
who should know better, are
perfectly willing to roll in big
matches, league and otherwise
without first assuring themselves
that there is a competent official
watching the proceedings.
Many firSt-rank leagues roll all
their matches without such an
official. They don't seem to
realize the varied functions rele'

There is general idea that
