Ways to Make Rubber Known,
But Plant Building Still Logs
Several Processes Are Discovered to Get
Butodiene From Crude Petroleum

stacles in the way First, such plants
are very expensive. difficult to build,
and require enormous amounts of
vital war material.
A Second Difficulty.
A second difficulty. it is under
stood, has been so outstanding that
for a time Government agencies
feared it would be necessary to
abandon entirely the petroleum.
rubber program Buna rubbers were
developed in Germany during the
late twenties and thirties. The
butadiene was obtained from coal
and from alcohol American chem
lists went into the petroleum ex-
traction process cold and, however
simple it looked on paper, difficulty
after difficulty appeared in practise.
Petroleum is such a complex mix
ture that 1t was almost impossible
to get pure butadiene. and without
that it was impossible to predict
the quality of the rubber that would
be obtained.
There was little announcement
to experiment Standard Oil Co.
possessed the l. G. Farbenindustrie
patents and was willing to license
them. With no assurance of a
market. no one wanted to take a
chance, and Standard Oil of New
Jersey was more concerned with
butvl rubber which it believed
probably unjustifiablv. could be
made into a superior product. Thus
the program was delayed until the
emergency.
Much of the difficulty in obtain.
Ing pure butadiene. it is understood
now has been overcome. but the
plants. for the most part, remain
unbuilt.
Basis OF Aviation Gasoline.
Still another difficulty lies in the
fact that butane is the basis of 100
octane aviation gasoline Two OF
the four-carbon molecules are
Joined together to form an eight
carbon molecule which, by a COM
pleX process, becomes octane. This
is mixed about $3.50 with base gas
oline to form the aviation mixture
Details of how it is done are a
military secret. Germans do not
know. They themselves make 100
octane gas but it is so scarce and
expensive that German pilots carry
two tanks-one of ordinary gaso-
line. They only switch to the 100
octane tank in combat.
Also from this same butane car
be built up to toluene, a constituent
of all gasoline but very difficult
to extract.
But butane constitutes less thar
per cent of any given amount OF
crude petroleum. 1t would be un-
wise to put too great a demand
upon it.
Regarding the economics of the
situation, experts here point out
that the day may come when there
will be no further need for 100
octane gasoline or toluene in large
quantities Then butadiene eco
nomically would be obliged to stand
entirely on its own feet in justify
ing the extraction and processing
OF butane.

CAIRO. Egypt, June 8.-Dr.
George A. Reisner, IA, of Indian
apolis, Ind. Harvard archaeologist,
died yesterday at the pyramids of
Gizeh where he had been in charge
of the Harvard University eXcava-
tions since 1905.
DR.. Reisner had been IN poor
health for several years and had
nearly lost his sight. He persisted
in working, however. to complete
his notes for future research by
others. Until three months ago he
had been in a hospital.
He had dictated notes from his
bed and finally decided to go back
to the pyramids to work and die.
One of the foremost Egyptologists
Of all time, DR.. Reisner made an
epoch-making contribution to the
science in 1868 when he d.
rected excavations in the Sudan
which led to the recovery of the
ancient history of Ethiopia. The
expedition found the pyramids of
67 kings and reigning queens of
Ethiopia, recovering the chronology
of a monarchy embracing IL CEN
turieS.
In l924-26 at the foot of the
Great Pyramid, he discovered the
secret tomb of Queen Hetep-Heres,
the mother of Cheops, who built
the Great Pyramid as his own
tomb. The secret tomb was more
than 1900 years earlier in date
than that Of Tut -Ankh-Amen.

HORNSBY'S entry into baseballs
- Hall of Fame brings up once
more an ancient argument. Who
have been the greater hitters-the
right-handers or those who swing
from the left side?
The left-handed swingers offer you
Ty Cobb, Babe Ruth, George Sisler,
Lou Gehrig, Joe Jackson, Iris
Speaker and Ted Williams for a
starting lineup. This is quite col
lection of talent to move against.
The right-handers counter with ROg-
ers HOrnsby, Hans Wagner, Napo-
leon Lajoie, Ed Delehanty, Harry
Heilmann and Joe DiMaggio-a
pretty fair crop also.
The left-hander, being closer to
first base, has more than a full
strides advantage. I'd say the left
handed hitting side had slight
edge, but nothing to rave about.
For Hornsby, Wagner, Lajoie, Dele
hanty and DiMaggio could also lean
against the leather.
Don't forget that Hornsby aver
aged above 400 for four consecutive
years, taking in his average for that
time, which is something.
An Odd Turn
Baseball happens to be the one
game in which the left-handed hit
ter takes high place in any all
time ranking.
In golf, no left-hander has ever
won big championship. No left
handler has ever won the U. S. Open
or British Open, the U. S. Amateur

or the British Amateur crown. In
fact, no left-hander has even come
close to any major golf event.
There have been good left-handed
Jones, Vardon, Hagen, Hogan or
Nelson. The portside entries can
play in the low los, they can break
20 here and there, but they are lost
in major events.
In golf there are no such left
handed stars as Cobb, Ruth, Jack
son, Speaker and many others. Just
why this is no scientist seems to
know. If SO many people can handle
a baseball bat so effectively as left
handlers, why not golfers?
In Other Sports
The same is true in tennis. There
have been good left-handed tennis
players, but few champions. Nor
man Brookes was one. The Austria
liam was star. R. L. Murray was
another.
But the crushing preponderance is
all on the other side-Bill Tilden,
Bill Johnston, Rene Lacoste, Ellis

GRAFTON. The star right-handers in
tennis outnumber the star left-hand-

The same is true in polo. All great
polo players have been right-hand-
ed swingers - Devereux Milburn,
Tommy Hitchcock, Cecil Smith, Luis
Lacey. l can't recall any left-hand-
ed polo players. Maybe there are
none.
In games where you pick up some
form of bat to hit the ball, base
ball is the only sport that can show
you line of top-notch left-handed
swingers.
There have been great left-handed
pitchers - Waddell, Grove, Ruth,
Pennock, Gomez, Plank. And foot
ball has known fine left-footed kick
ers and fine left-handed passers. But
outside of baseball the left-handed
hitter is far below the average of
his right-handed rival
We'll still let the scientists figure
this out.
about Hornsby
Hornsby has been something more
than a great hitter, fine infieIder
and winning manager. He also is
one of the best instructors that base
ball ever has known. For some I'M
known reason baseball never has
been too hot on the instruction side.
The main idea in baseball is to
swing the bat on line, not up or
down. I've seen HOrnsby correct
this fault more than once. If base
ball ever had the training and the

Easter 1912
By Ruth Taylor

Tt is in the spirit of humility
and purpose that we will go out
this Easter morning to celebrate
the great festival of the Church
the day that commentaries not
the sorrows of earthly life, not
the Way of the Cross, but the
Resurrection-the Victory of the
Spirit over the flesh.
Day by day we climb to our
Golgothas. We cannot shift our
burdens to another's shoulders.
We cannot shirk the steep hills
and the heavy weight that seems
as unbearable as it appears in
terminable. i.3str
We celebrate this Easter in a
spirit of solemnity. To many Of
us the coming months will bring
the end of all that made life seem
worth living. Far too many of us
will be forced by the irreligious
and inhuman gluttony of the die
tators for loot and power over
the lives of men to tread the mar
row ways of sorrow. No one of
us will be unaffected by this war.
But no weight is too heavy, no
way too long when we know that
at the end there will be an Easter
morning. It was this translation
of the lessons of religion into the
terms of living that brought forth
the great old spirituals which
lighted the way of a people up
from bondage. It is this spirit, this
realization of the impermanence of
evil that will carry us through the
darkest hours.
For in hours of peace we learned
faith, and in the hours of strife
we still remember the words of
Him whose Resurrection we cele-
brate. peace I leave with you,
my peace I give unto you; not as
the world giveth, give unto you.
Let not your heart be troubled,
neither let it be afraid. This is
my commandment, That we love
one another, as have loved you.
Greater love hath no man than
this, that man lay down his life
for his friends"
