WHEN ISA WORD NOT A WORD, UP
 FOR DECISION
Man With HOO Words Got the Prize and Man With ll77 Words Brought Suit

New York, March 24-UP)- Three Columbia university author ities on the English language la- bored nightly to-day to determine under what circumstance word is not a word. They worked with smeath, cade, caser, csrda, sturd and tetard, and upon their labors depended the peace of mind of the Consolidated Cigar company.
 The company offered $1,000 first prize and other prizes total ling $2,O00 to contestants who compiled the most words from the scrambled word, sretsamhctud. Ira Gilman wore out several diction- aries and sent in 1,177 words. George H. Cameron sent in LIDO words and was awarded first prize. Gilman sued.
 Referee John M. Cragen, ap- pointed to hear the evidence, lis- tened to hours of debate on wheth- CT the judges had been right in re- jecting 300 of Gillman's words or the allegation that they were not actually words. Gillman's attor. ney produced definitions of several -csarda is the hair of horses or cows; a desma is a stout, irregular, spicuIe; a smeath is the smew, a small mersanger, "among the best divers of all ducks; carum is q member of the perennial herb family apiacae.

Edwin c. Mill to
 Present Joe Cook

Joe Cook of Indiana, noted com edian, will appear with his fellow Hoosier, Edwin c. Hill, on the Inside Story" program over a coast-to coast WABC-Columbia network tonight, from 9:30 to 1O:0O D. m., EST. During an in- formal conversation he will relate of the episode which was the turning point in his career and later was to bring him into the headlines.
 Like that other popular come dian, Fred Allen, Cook began his theatrical career as juggler. Later he developed the famous one-man vaudeville show. In recent years he has been starred in Broadway musical shows such as Rain or Shin." Smiling" and Earl Car rolls "Vanities".
 More people probably remem- Der Joe Cook for his classic expla- nation of why he will not initiate four Hawaiians than for anything else. Edwin c. Hill will see to it that some reference is made to this affair during the broadcast. Tn addition Columbia's popular news commentator vii Indulge in a new role, that of acting as straight man" for Cooks quipping. Highlights in the comics career will be presented in dramatic form against fast-paced musical back ground devised and directed by Nathaniel Shilkret.

New Use Found For
 Connecticut Woods
Black Oak Red Maple, Pitch Pine and Birches Among
 Species Tested for Commercial Use

New Haven Mar 24-A way to make other native Connecticut woods do the work of chestnut, which has been almost killed by the blight. has been found in a series of experiments conducted comparatively by the Connecticut agricultural experiment station, the state highway commission. and the state forester. Possibly this will op- en up market for timebr now unsalaeble.
 For years chestnut has been used for highway posts. and for farm purposes and others. because of it's resistance to decay, in which it ex- celled most other native woods. Since the supply of chestnut is be- coming exhausted. it will soon be necessary to develop substitute.
 Black oak, red maple, pitch pine, and black and yellow birch had the highest qualifications for posts of any woods tested. These species are stronger than chestnut and they absorb creosote readily. which assures life probably as long as chestnut, which is 10 to 15 years.
 Eighteen kinds of native wood were treated with hot and cold creosotes. Also they were subjected to bending tests at the highway testing laboratory in Portland.
