duty with the United States Navy.
That was a heavy loss in two
ways. First, in playing strength
Second. in the matter of first aid

without padding or armor of any
kind. there are plenty of cuts dis
tributed by flashing skates and
swinging sticks-and no doctors at
hand any more to bind up the
wounded.
More Enthusiasm Than Skill.
There was a young lieutenant of
the Tank Destroyer Corps who, on
a brief visit home, made spectac-
ular appearance on the neighbor-
hood rink. Having played a bit of
house hockey in college, the red
headed goldbar boy from the Tank
Destroyers didn't think it wise to
go into any hockey scrimmage un-
padded, so he girded his legs. loins.
elbows and shoulders with whatever
he could pick up around the house
sweat ters, sWeatshirts, neckties,
scarfs, woolen wrapped puttees-a
wild variety of stuff. When the
scrimmaging became warm, he be-
gan shedding that padding all over
the ice. 1t was like the collapse of
a rummage counter at a bargain
sale
Still, it served a useful purpose
because frequently the player who
was checking or pursuing him with
stick found his skates entangled
in the stuff the Tank Destroyer
gent was unfurling and shedding as
he crashed his way up and down
the ice. Maybe the whole thing was
bit of strategy for harassing the
enemy that he was taught in the
Army school.
That was the big day of the sea-
son-there were four players on each
side. Now it's hard to find two for
each side unless women and chill
dren are recruited. Two more young
players reached Army specifications
and marched off recently. And
there was another serious blow to
our league
Since there is more enthusiasm
than skill in these neighborhood
clashes on ice, not only are cuts
| and bruises common, but sticks are
broken frequently in swashbuckling
exchanges and unplanned collisions.
When an attempt was made to
purchase additional weapons for
| further pleasantries on skates. the
clerk In the sporting goods store
said coldly:
No more hockey sticks for civil
ian use"
That, in Shakespearean language,
was the most unkindest cut of all"

They sought to produce an instru-

They have accomplished this with
a device by which the abnormal

musical tone-as some types of sub
detectors indicate the presence of
something unusual in the water by
similar changes in pitch.
The tone, they explain, is pro-
duced by two independent high fire.
quency oscillators of very slightly
different frequencies. These two
frequencies are mixed so that
whenever the frequencies coincide
with each other there is beat.
These frequently recurring beats
are heard as a tone of a certain
pitch through loud speaker or
through earphones.
The oscillators in turn are so con-
nected with the electrodes placed on
the scalp so that the currents COM
ing from the brain interfere with
the oscillations and produce tones
of quite different pitch. The changes
produced by the A and B waves are
standardized, distinct and unmis-
taxable and the physician easily can
become familiar with them. Alb
normal waves produce striking vari-
ants from these pitches.

say, can be built in a compact unit
easily carried about by the physician.
One advantage, they say. is that
the doctor can determine the brain
waves of the patient at the same
time having his eyes free to observe
behavior. Also two earphones could
be used and the electrodes shifted
to corresponding areas on the two
hemispheres of the brain until the
appearance of the abnormal sound
in one side indicated the site of the
trouble.
