SCOUT TELESCOPE
 IS TO SCAN SKIES

PASADENA, Cal, Oct. 26-The 2O0-inch telescopes scout" will be scanning the skies next spring, months before the giant mirror it. self is ready.
 pr. J. A. Anderson, Palomar ob- servatory executive officer, said the disk for the 48-inch Schmidt tele- scope, which will be used largely for scouting purposes, is being ground and polished at the Mount Wilson observatory optical shop.
 Its 45-foot dome already has been completed on Palomar noun tain" he said, "and a correcting lens. obtained in England, will ar rive shortly.
 An 18-inch Schmidt telescope, housed in a 20-foot dome, was in- stalled in 1886 and has been in reg ular use since then.
 Shaping of the 200-inch glass is proceeding steadily, but it may not be ready for a year."
 pr. Fritz zwicky is using the 18- inch telescope in search for super novae, exploding stars, and has found nine of them in distant nebulae.

Autumn Dress
 For Potatoes

CHICAGO, IL, Oct 26. = Mashed potato has donned a new dress-for the benefit of restaurant men. And perhaps the housewives would like to take a few notes, too At any rate, the style show was put on in Chi cago at the annual convention of the National Restaurant Associa- ticn. It seems that, in Idaho, new process has been developed whereby potatoes are washed, pared, cooked, shredded-and then dried so that they come out looking something like dry shredded cocoanut.
 Under the process, about II pounds of fresh potatoes can be condensed into one pound of the shredded pro- duct. Then, after the shreds are soaked in hot water for five minutes, they are ready to be whipped in the usual way. So even the lowly mashed potato steps forth in new autumnal garb.
 But-this was not the only thing to delight the restaurant keepers. There was a machine which made mock chicken legs" from two slices of pork and veal. And the same machine was capable of taking two thin slices, of steak, with a piece of suet between, and knitting them together, ready for sandwich.

WI(kERSHAM IS
 PAID TRIBUTE;
 SERVICES TO-DAY
EuIogy Credits Late Judge as Great in Efforts as
 Pioneer Alaskan

Over a hundred saddened Alas kans gathered in the auditorium of the Elks this afternoon to pay tribute to the late Judge James Wickersham, pioneer Alaskan and former Delegate to Congress, one of the foremost figures in the building of the Territory, who passed away early Tuesday morning in St. Ann's Hospital.
 At Mrs. Wickersham's request, floral offerings were limited to a lovely double casket spray from the Juneau Bar Association, of which the late Judge Wickersham was long a member.
 Services, read by Dean c. E. Rice, were followed by the eulogy deliv- cred by Jack Hellenthal, long time friend of Judge Wickersham, and member of the Bar Association.
 Hellenthal paid tribute to the late pioneer as a giant among men, great" in his achievements, in his broad knowledge, in his generous spirit in his services for the Ter ritory.
 Judge Wickersham, Hellenthal said, lived and died a pioneer, leav- ing his Illinois boyhood town for the Northwest, then the last from tier, following the newest frontiers to Alaska, bringing law to wilder ness, building courthouses in his trail fighting for Alaska in Con- gress, fathering the Organic Act and the right to representation of Alaska in Congress, battling courageously for everything he deemed right for Alaska and for Alaskans, a great man, a great Alaskan, whose great ness will never be forgotten so long as Alaska remains Alaska Pallbearers at the service were George A. Parks, Harry C. Watson, pr. A. w. Stewart, John Newmark- CT. Joe Waite, Trevor Davis, J. F. Mullen and Herb Redman.
 The Holy Trinity Cathedral Choir rendered music during the services.
 Tonight an escort of the pallbear- CTS and members of the Bar ASSo- citation will accompany the remains to the steamer North Sea on which Mrs. Wickersham is sailing, taking her late husbands remains to Ia coma for cremation.

AMERICAN FLAG
 NOT TO BE FLOWN
 FOR ANY DISGUISE

WASHINGTON, Oct. 26. - The Sena .e heard a ringing appeal to- day for the passage of a law for bidding any foreign ship to fly the American flag for purposes of disguise.
 senator Tcbey Of New Hampshire declared that British vessels sys- tematically flew the United States flag to deceive German submarines during the World War.
 Senator 1obsy sad the practice endangers American seamen be- cause subs suspected any ship fly ing the United States flag of being disguised as a British ship. Admin istration leaders in the Senate agreed with Tobey that the practice should be forbidden but the Sen ate was stumped by the problem of providing an effective penalty.
 Senator Tobey called for the confiscation of the ship and i'm prisonment of the ships captain.
 Other Senators said that this would be ineffective as the ship and the captain might never come into the jurisdiction of the Unit ed States.
 Said Senator Connally of Texas: Tt is ridiculous for the United States to solemnly declare some action outside American jurisdic tion to be a crime"

NEW PoWERHoUsE SHIP

Then comes the Hammann class, about which the controversy arises. Reputedly they are as fast or faster than the Craven class. In addition they carry l6 torpedo tubes, four more than the Craven class and have a double deck band of guns forward
 It makes them a poWerhouse. But to this topside weight, other features designed to make them even more rugged were added. The navy now says that all in all an effort was made to make them too tough.
 They work fine in smooth water, put when one had its test in rough water, it took high sea on a full speed turn and list4d so badly that the navy decided something had to be done.
 I What will be done remains a naval secret. Possibly the top bank of guns viii come of, to- g2ther with some of the over-rid- 5en observation and fire control

 Changes in design in the past half dozen years indicates the present drift. The Farragut class, of 1883 and 1884, carried eight crpedo tubes neatly balanced in yhe center-ine of the ship, so that thep could fire to either side. They had five 5-inch guns and re- putedly could do fl knots-about 46 miles an hour-in pinch.
 The Craven class of 1887 had 4-inch guns. but carried l2 tor pedo tubes, six on a side They are probably faster than the Far ragut class although the navy keeps their speed a secret.
