Einstein Believes
.Curue of SpaceCan
NOlU Be Measured
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
PITTSBURGH, December 28.-Prof.
Albert Einstein, author of the famous
idea that space is curved in some mys-
terious manner, said today that the
new 200-inch telescope which will be
erected in California may solve this
riddle.
He suggested the telescope would see
enough space Ito measure any curva-
ture that may exist
The noted German expressed this
opinion in an interview a few hours
before his scheduled address before
400 of the Nations leading scientists
this afternoon.
When you see," he said, "only a
little piece of curved line you can
always say it is straight, but when you
see large piece you can say that it is
curved"
But he does not think the big tele-
scope will disclose enough space 10
show whether it is curved like ball,
so that light coming from a star in
the west also will be seen from the
east, coming around curved space like
a traveller clrcumnavigating the globe
Asked what progress he had made
toward discovering the relations be-
tween gravitation and electricity,
called the unised field theory, he said:
Il have only hopes, nothing sure"

That evening the girl and the young man
met as usual and Leslie watched them walk
out, with the girls arm tucked under Red
heads and her fresh little face turned up to-
ward his.
Then it became very interesting. Even Alice
became excited about it. Every day, at noon,
ming at a quarter to five, she met the young
man who looked like the knight.
They watched. day after day, and it was
evident that j. Wilkie had been hooked. There

"
Standing there eight hours q day, you were
soon able to recognize a lot of the people who
kept their appointments in the Knights Court.
Alice used to point out married couples and
swear that she could remember them when
they were only keeping company.
AFTER they're married, you don't see them

they've changed. Makes you feel glad you're

MIN. I don't see what he can see In her.
Nor did she. Leslie really thought the young
man resembled the knight. It was hard to
say Just where the resemblance began and
where it ended, but for her it was As plain

Alice looked at her. Have you got crush

Leslie sighed again. "Gee" she said "n he
asked me to dinner I'd go in a minute. Why
is it the people you want to speak to you

That's life, dearie" said Alice briskly.
The man used to get there about half past

meeting every week day for two months For
Leslie the whole store used to brighten when
he came N, and darken when he left. And
then one day he did speak to her.

study and train my voice." They gave
1t to him.
In the Spring when 1t was warm
again and the festival day approached,
he played his trump card
Boys" he said in a hoarse voice,
I'm sorry, but the laryngitis has got
me. I can't sing"
"Oh. can't you," said the boys. 1--WE
thought you'd try that one. You sing
or else"
So McNamara did. Schumann-
Heink, who lived in the neighborhood,
heard him. She sent word for him to
come to see her. He lodged, thinking
the boys were framing him for a
laugh. Finally the great prima donna
became impatient and walked into the
police station to tell him about himself.
Mcnamara was no longer a cop. He
went off to the University Of Michigan
to study music, to polish of the rough
edges, as he says. Then his sponsor
took him 'on tour with her, giving
concerts. When radio knocked the
bottom out of the average concert
business he found little to do.
He was living up in Connecticut
with his friend Haywood Broun when
Brock Pemberton, the producer, found
him.
Ed" he said to the barrel-chested
Irishman, i've got a part for you.
You sing couple of songs. Take you
about five minutes a day. Good SAL
ary. The play probably won't last
long, but there you are"
McNamara took 1t. 1t was "The
Ladder" which the Middle Western
millionaire kept alive at his own ex-
pense for two years and more because
he liked it.
Mcnamara was out Of work again.
He began to wonder if maybe he
should not have stayed back in Pater-
son and kept on making pinches.
Pemberton showed up
"I want you to play cop in show
I've got, called Strictly Dishonor-
able"
ITO hell with being stage cop"
"Come take a look"
McNamara looked, pronounced the
part terrible, comic opera business
with the lines all wrong. Pemberton
suggested he substitute his own ver-
sion, and the ex-policeman did. His

gags were the hit of the show. In
cluded that famous doublet where
character says, Il thought policemen
never took a drink"
1T Just seems like never" said the
cop.
McNamara says all that was "just
old police talk, but they sure went for
it." After the opening, Frank Sullivan
sent him a wire reading: "Congratula-
tions. Best cop since Duse."
At the National this week he has
the role of the laconic and learned
