Chapel Hill Chaf

"A distinguished British scien-
tist, Francis William Aston,
came here a few years ago and
lectured in Phillips hall. He
talked about electrOns and iso-
topes. He talked an hour or so,
and when | left the room | real
lied that | had comprehended
hardly anything of what he had
said. SO | knew it was no use
for me to go to hear Robert A.
Millikan deliver the McNair lee
lures here last week. Mr.. Aston
and Mr.. Millikan think and
work in a realm where every
thing-the phenomena and the
language-is entirely beyond my
power of understanding.
These are great students and
investigators and discoverers,
who are delving into the deepest
problems of nature and the uni
verse. With their fine instru-
ments as an aid to what is far
more important, namely, their
imagination and their acute
reasoning processes, they are re-
vealing truths which, through
all the ages, have been locked in
secrecy. Their books, their lee
lures, their laboratory Demon
strations, their conversation
must be fascinating to persons
who have read and studied in
the same field or similar fields,
whose own labors have provided
them basis for comprehension.
But the plain truth is that any
body else might just about as
well be deaf when these scien-
lists are talking.
| asked several Of my friends,
members Of the University fac
ulty not in the science depart
ments, how they had enjoyed

Hens Hide Their Eggs
White icghorns Play Trick on Mr.
Bisins: Lay in Wrong Place

T.. G.. BiVinS, who has 800
white lcphorn hens on his farm
near IIillsboro, went out to his
poultry houses one morning re-
Gently and was nabbergasted to
find no eggs there. The hens
were strollinE about, as usual,
in the Wirc-fcnccd enclosure.
They did not have the guilty look
appropriate to shirkers, nor did
they look sick, indolcnt, or re-
LclliouS. Yet the nests where
the eggs should have been were
empty.
The next. day Mr.. Bivins ex-
pericnced the same disappoint-
mcnt, and Wasg more myst1fcd
than ever.
That afternoon one Of his boy
helpers found 974 eggs under Il
nearby feed barn. A watch on
the third morning revealed what
had happened: the hens had
been flying over the wire fence,
had laid their eggs under the
barn. and had then flown back
home.

Outdoor Bridge
Gard playing al Fresco Suggested as
Suitable for Spring time

A woman Of my acquaintance,
who plays bridge frequently,
told me the other day that she
was not enjoying the game these
DAYS because she didn't like to
be cooped up in d house in the
springtimc when there were 80
many pretty flowers she wanted
to be looking at outside.
Why then shouldn't a hostess
place the bridge tables and chairs
in yard or garden? Wouldn't
bridge al fresc0 be a good form
of entertainment? Ny friend
thinks well of the suggestion.
"The dummies could roam
around among the flowers" she
says. "And even the players
who are not dummies could en-
JOY the scenery during the prog
rcss Of the game. ] know a'lot
Of 'em who would play just about
as we'll while looking at the
flowers as they now play while
looking at the cards"

A NYBODY who knows Wres.
L n Ting will tell you that a toe
hold can't be demonstrated I'M
less the intended victim takes
off a Shoe
So Alva Wild, who says he is
a broker from Frankfort, Ind,
took off a shoe in a restaurant
at 1920 Madison avenue Sunday
night. He had five $50 bills in
the shoe. He hasn't got them
now.
Wild said a man giving the
name of Robert Beckett, 35, of
GAINESVILLE, o., was the only per-
son he had told that there was
money in the shoe. Beckett was
arrested on vagrancy charge.
According to Wild, a guest at
a hotel, he met Beckett in the
basement Of another hotel, and
Beckett proposed they go on a
drinking party.
Beckett picked up three other
men in poolroom and the five
went to the Madison avenue res
taurant operated by Lonnie Lyster
and Art Dampier.
One of the party, who an
nounced he was wrestler,
demonstrated the toe hold, and
left with the money and two COM
panions. Beckett, who told po-
lice he was not acquainted with
the three men from the poolroom,
returned to the hotel with Wild
and was present when police ar
rived to investigate Wild's report
Of robbery.

murder of Frances Empfer. Is.
The Newtown youth broke down
under hours of grilling.
Sobbing Historically he said:
she was in love with me, and
liked her, too. Her folks bounded
her, wouldn't let her go out with
me; she couldn't stand it any longer.
We decided to die together.
In my car put my right arm
about her neck with the pistol at
her left breast and shot her.
But lost my nerve, and couldn't
go through with the suicide"
Thus, in less than twenty-four
hours, was solved the mystery Of
the death of the Newtown high

Health Chief Warns Of
Flu Type Colds Wave
Keep Going Cure Method
Dangerous to Victims,
SAYS Dr.. MORGAN.

"If you have a cold, don't try to
wear 1t out"
This warning was sounded today
by DR.. Herman G. Morgan, secre-
tary of the city health board, with
the announcement that the city
now is entering the second week of
a wave of influenza type colds.
"A week ago we noted the first
indications of wave of influenza
type colds, which can not be worn
off by the customary keep going
method" Morgan said. "a high
percentage of these colds are ac-
companied by respiratory infections,
which easily can develop into bron-
chitis, pneumonia and sinus infec-
tons"
The prevalent infections are of
more marked severity than the
common cold" Morgan said. Symp-
toms are nasal irritation, ac-
companied by severe headaches,
watery eyes and temperature. The
onset Of the cold is more sudden
than the ordinary cold which gi- es
warning by the feeling that one is
taking cold" Morgan said.
THE attack also is marked by
general muscular soreness and
radiating pains in the leg muscles, -
Morgan said. "The symptoms easily
are distinguishable as more severe
than the usual cold.
Persons afflicted by this type of
cold should accept it as being more
difficult to overcome than just a
cold Morgan said. REST in bed at
the onset, with adequate medical at
tention will prevent complications.

GAMBLING CAR
COULD DEPOSED
BY DEPRESSION
Riviera Properties to Be
Leased to Syndicate at
Low Rents.

BIZ United Press
PARIS, Nov. 23.-The pinch of
hard times along the French Ri
viera has turned Fran Jay Gould
from the worlds foremost gambling
car into mere landlord to a gam
bling syndicate, it was learned to-
day.
The syndicate. made up of six
men, has been formed to take over
Gould's vast casino and hotel ac-
tivities, representing an estimated
investment Of more than $4,000 600
Gould's great Palais De La Medi-
terrane, at Nice, held to be the most
lavishly designed gaming casino in
the world, and his new gambling
palace at Juan-Les-Pins are in
cluded in the properties to be taken
over by the syndicate.
Voluntarily ExiIld Self
The S5,000,000 Palais De La Medi-
terrrane has not been opened yet
this year, though, heretofore, the
opening always has been early in
November.
Other properties included in the
deal are the Hotel Majestic at Nice
and the luxurious Provencal hotel
at Juan-Les- Pins, between Cannes
and Nice.
Gould, son of the late Jay Gould,
voluntarily eXiled himself from the
United States in 1918, and estab-
lished his name on the Riviera
especially that stretch along the
Mediterranean known as the Cote
D'Azur--prior to the coming of
worldwide depression in 1929.
He built his success on the boom
days, when pleasure-seekers, capable
of paying fancy prices, ranged up
and down the Riviera by thousands,
One Per Cent on Investment
His various ventures have now
turned into so many white ele-
plants even though the Palais
De La Mediterrane led all other
French casinos in table profits last
year, gaining a total of more than
21,0O0,0OO francs.
The new syndicate will include
Jean Medecin, mayor of Nice, and
Ernest Boudoin, Gould's casino
manager. The syndicate will rent
the various casinos and hotels at an
annual price of 100000 francs, be-
ginning Dec. II.
This rental rate represents really
less than 1 per cent on Gould's in
vestment on the Riviera.

day the janitor notified us he had
received instructions from the city
hall not to let us have them.
Ernie Prick, board of works
secretary, today denied the
hunger marchers' were refused
chairs, and asserted the lack of
them at the hall was due to neg
igence Of the committee on ar

Prick said that when permits
sion to use the hall was granted
and heat and light promised, the
committee was told it was to
make arrangements in advance
with the hall custodian for
chairs to be placed. This stipu-
lation was agreed to by the COM
mittee, according to Prick.
Several speakers denounced
capitalism and urged support of
the march.
