Fraternal Five Plays Grit ical Tilt with Juneau Fire
 men at 8: 30 O'Clock
GAMES TONIGHT
 At Juneau High School = Moose va. George Brothers at 7:30 o'clock; DeMoiay vs. Ju- neau Bremen at 8:30 o'clock.

If vantage points were ever at premium in Juneau High Schools gymnasium, they will be tonight when the final regular City Bas- ketball League doubleheader gets under way at 7;30 o'clock.
 But it will not be to witness that first game, between the George Brothers and the Moose, that the fans will flock to the gym tonight. The hoop enthusiasts will be there in plentiful numbers to watch the DeMolays make 6 last attempt to get back into the second half title picture.
 For the fraternal lads must de- feat the Juneau Bremen when those two quintets tangle at 8:3O o'clock. Out of things themselves, the Bremen, nevertheless, offer a high stumbling block to the De- Mo.ays tonight.
 Should the DeMolays win, then they will finish the schedule in a firss-c!ass tie with the Krause 9nereters. A p,ayoff, to determ- inc which team will meet the George Brother five, first half champion, for the l934-35 league crown would result. However should the Bremen win tonight, the Concreters automatically woui ] step up to challenge the George Brother team.

LAWRENCE, Kas., Feb. 19.- When Kansas State scored 37 points this season in losing to Kansas 43, it was the highest to- tai Jayhawk basketball oppo- nent has tailed in three seasons.
 The last previous time a Kan sas foe hit that figure was in 1892, when Iowa State won a 27- 29 tilt.
 In the 1932-34 season 26 was the greatest number of points Jay hawk foe scored. Oklahoma did it in a non-conference game.

Insul- ation is obtained by glass fiber. In the event that plaster is used, as in most residence construction it is said that nothing would be burnable in the house except the floors and even the floors might be made of some non burnable material It is claimed by the promoters of this ty- pc of construction that an ordinary residence can be completed at not more than 70 percent of the cost of the usual frame construction. Ad- ditional good qualities about the copper house are that it will last a couple of hundred years at least needs no paint and that if the oWn- CT wishes to tear it down he can get at least $500 at present prices of copper in the building. It is plan ned that the frame of such building will be made of steel. One of this type of houses is now under con- struction near Arlington and anoth CT and larger one, is to be built in Washington.

Today S Science
BY DAVID DIETZ-

FTNHE eeCtron long regarded as the smallest thing
l IN the universe. may itself possess complex
structure This view which represents revolution
IN present-day theories of the nature Of matter. is
rapidly gaining adherents in the world of science.
Originally it was assumed that the atom was in
Invisible and the smallest particle in existence Then
the beginning of the present century it was eStao-
lshed that the atom was complex affair con-
structed Of smaller particles which we're named
eleCtrons.
II is interesting to note that Sir j. J. Thomson,
veteran British physicist who first proposed the
electron structure of the atom. is taking the lead In
the movement to establish sub-structure for the
eleCtron.
THE new movement grows out Of attempts to
L plain the behavior of the eectron This is
such as TO indicate that the electron is not the tiny
dense sphere Of negative electricity which it has
been pictured M to the present.
The chief difficulty to any simple explanation of
the structure of the eecron is the fact that in
tain experiments the electron behaves not par
ticle but as a wave.
Experiments first performed in this country by
DAWSON and Ciermer of the Bell Telephone Labora-
tories. and subsequent experiments by G. P. Thom-
son. son Of Sir J. J. Thomson demonstrated this.
IN these experiments electrons we're shot through
1 thin films of metal It was found that these
eectrons struck target beyond the film in such
wsv as to make attraction rings or patterns such
are obtained only with waves.
In other words the electrons seemed to behave as
punches of waves rather than solid particles.
These experiments, of course. we're regarded as
demonstrations of the so-called theory of wave
chanics. Schroednger had first suggested that each
electron was accompanied by a train of waves and
later De Brogle had suggested that the electron
a pulSating sphere of electric But these
explanations we're not regarded as complete
Therefore. Sir j. j. Thomson has suggested a
structure for the electron.
