Hagen has another reason for
going to Atlantic City. Instead of
picking his lineup of challengers
at this time, he will wait until
after that tournament and be
guided by the showings made by
those eligible for his team.
He has more than 20 players
punder consideration, among them
Chick Harbert of Battle Creek
and AL Watrous of Oakland Hills.
Harbert and Watrous, as has been
known for some time, are almost
certain to be among his final
choices.
Michigan didn't have a player
on either team in the two pre-
vious Cup matches. But it will
be represented on both lineups
this time. as Jimmy Demaret of
Plum Hollow will play with the
Cuppers.
Hagen, il is understood, hopes
to have Bobby Jones on his team.

Carriers Like Derby
$50 Times Boys See Roller Races at Olympia;
Show Winds Up Stay Tomorrow

These four boys have solicited
the most new subscriptions to The
Detroit Times in the three weeks
since the Derby has been in town.
To them and to the rest of the
boys Norma Jean Kemp was the
bright spot of the show. The boys
all thought she was swell, even
though she was right in the mid
die of all the fights - and there
were plenty of them-and they
were wild in their cheers for her.
The Roller Derby winds up its
stay in Detroit tomorrow night
and there will be a jamboree to-
night for the benefit of the skat-

The track is being reprinted and
frightened up for the no limit

the last night. All skaters will
undergo a thorough physical
check-up tomorrow afternoon.

The Roller Derby, which goes
into its last stand tomorrow night
at Olympia. made a 100 per cent
hit with the carriers of The De-
troit Times who saw the show
last night.
The 80 lads who witnessed the
Derby as awards for new sub
scriptions were red hot in their
praise of the whole thing.
To two of the top award win
ners il was old stuff, because
Thomas McGrath and Billy Collins
had seen the Derby when it was
here two and three years ago, but
they were still wild about it.
But to Norman Jakust and
Warren eleven it was brand new
and they were solid in their praise
Norman labeled il the best show

said, I'm sorry the show leaves
town tomorrow night because I'd
like to see more of it,"

New Method for Testing
Heart Told by Doctor

How the heart is made to reveal
its pathological secrets by the use
Of saccharin and ether was related
to western area doctors by DR.. Hor-
ace B. Gates Of Los Angeles.
The test, he said, 10 made to as
certain If there is heart allure,
which to the medical man means
improper blood pumping rather
than, as laymen use it, heart stop
page.
Saccharin, or q sugar solution, is
injected into q vein of the arm,
under this method, he said, and a
stop watch held on the patient.
The sweet substance must then,
In the normal course of functional
activity, pass through both sides of
the heart and the lungs to emerge
on the tongue, where the patient
can taste it.
I'm this way we can tell how fast
the blood is flowing, with the normal
being about IS seconds from arm to
tongue" DR.. Gates said. This time
will 60 up to 20 or 80 seconds if the
heart has failed"
But, he continued, the area of
disease can be even more isolated
by the subsequent use of an ether
injection.
Saccharin or sugar, being not cas-
lily soluble, passes over the whole
route from arm TO heart, to lungs
and to the tongue.
But ether, being highly volatile.
or easily converted from liquid to
gas, is completely volatized when it
gets through the heart to the lung,
escaping through the windpipe there
so the patient can smell it.

DistillatiOn Points

Distillation range tests provide an
indication of the volatility of a gaso-
line. Volatility should be such that
the engine will start easily, warm
up quickly, accelerate satisfactor-
lily, operate without crankcase dilu-
ton and be free from vapor lock.
The 10 per cent point in the dis
tillation test is the point at which
the temperature shown has evap-
Grated 10 per cent of the gasoline.
This point is used in determining
the ease of starting the engine.
Low temperatures at this point in
dictate quick starting.
This 10 per cent point is also used,
together with the vapor pressure, to
estimate the tendency to vapor
lock. A low temperature combined
with a high vapor pressure, may
cause vapor lock, particularly in
warm weather.

Plutonic Stone Quarry
Discovered by Chemists

Exploitation of a quarry near
Corona, Calf, said to contain a
very fne-grained plutonic rock of
exceptional purity and hardness,
will be undertaken by Los Angeles
group, according to a chemists re-
port.
Ground to various sizes, the rock
is adaptable for all purposes where
stone, cement or concrete is used
engineers declare. Unlike concrete,
it is not conglomerate of many
minerals, the component parts of
which may not conform harmoni-
ously to change in temperature,
moisture, ETC., and break up and
crack. Weathering is believed to
strengthen its durability.
Authority for this analysis is E. A.
Bruder, agricultural chemist, Los
Angeles. In the survey and labora-
tory experiments he was aided by
other interested biologists and en-
gineerS.
More than 100000 is to be spent
for mining equipment, trans, crush
ers, grinders, laboratories and other
buildings, Bruder declared. Quar-
rying, crushing and grinding costs
are estimated at IS cents ton, and
the survey reveals more than
PA, 900, 900 tons positively in sight,
he said.
The chemist visions use of the
rock above and underground for
foundations, dikes, wharfs, roads,
airport runways and for other con-
struction projects designed to last
centuries.
