CROCODILE CLUB
 CANCELS FARLEY
Food, Transportation Fac= ilities Kill Annual COm=
 bounce Sheepbake

Bristol. Aug. 20-Because of food rationing and transportation prob- lems the Crocodile Club will not hold its annual dinner meeting at Lake Compounce on the last Thurs day of August, as has been the cus- tom for years.
 The club, which has among its membership Governor Raymond l. Baldwin, members of the General Assembly and other prominent state and local officials, was organized in 1875.
 Its meetings have always been largely attended and have attracted considerable notice.
 Julian H. Norton, CO., owner of Lake Compounce, stated that it has been decided not to hold the annual meeting and sheepbake because of food rationing and the gasoline situation.
 He pointed out that the lake re- sort is compelled to operate on a war schedule but is open the latter part of each week. The majority of patrons, however, are either walk ing to the lake or riding on busses.
 The Crocodile Club, he said, was formed at a sheep barbecue given by his grandfather, Cad Norton, to the members of the Legislature.
 He stated that the Legislature, at the request of his grandfather, who was also member of that body, took a portion of Lake Con- bounce from the town of Southing- ton and placed it in the town Of Bristol.
 At the dinner some one conceived the idea of forming club to meet on the last Thursday of August an- nually and it was so voted and the organization was named the Croco- dile Club.
 The Crocodile Club. MT. Norton said, if it met this year would have held its fifty-eighth session The club, he stated, met yearly since It's formation with the exception Of a lO-year period between 1923 and l933

'Oyez

When Seventeen-year- old J. Alco
Kenning of Germantown. Pennsyl-
Vanla, announced the assembling of
the Supreme Court yesterday, he
made use of the traditional words Of
proclamation by which official busi-
ness in English-speaking countries
has been introduced for centuries.
The audience, gathered to witness the
beginning of a new judicial session,
heard the tall young crier intone:
"Oyez! Oyez! Oyez!' according to
a custom much older than the Gov
ernment of the United States, or.
indeed, that of any other nation in
the world.
Nobody knows exactly how or when
or where the employment of such
eXpletives started Long prior to the
keeping Of written records it was a
familiar habit of the attaches of
state institutions to summon crowds
to behold acts of public significance.
Shakespeare was acquainted with
the conventional language of those
occasions. In "Troilus and Cressida"
he wrote:
Not Neoptolemus SO mrable,
On whose bright crest Fame with her
loudst Dyes
Cries This is he could promise to
himself
thought Of added honor torn from
Hector.
Still earlier Edward Hall, the cele-
brated chronicler and lawyer who
flourished between 1893 and l547,
testified in his annals of Henry VIII:
And there with all commanded his
heraude to make an oyes.". The clue
thus disclosed furnishes reliable
guidance to the ancient fact. 1t was
the heraldS Of the princes of classic
times who invented the device
adopted by youthful Mr.. Kenning in
order to secure silence and atten-
ton The heralds, inviolable SER
wants of civilization as they were,
ciedCeu dn atmosphere or peace by
their manner and bearing wherever
they appeared, and it was by the cry
"Oyez!,' thrice shouted, that they
advertised their presence. Emperors
and kings and distinguished magis-
trates who, in their influence upon
organized society, ranked above
crowned Sovereigns followed their
emblazoned messengers, the living
symbols Of their high authority.
So it is now. The new crier of the
Supreme Court yesterday at his
debut wore an ordinary business
suit Yet by valid formula ages old
he was entitled to a costume deco
rated with the arms of the great
tribunal which he represents.

Mystery of Thouoht

The problem of how thought be-
comes action has been discussed for
generations, but no solution has been
developed and it is possible that none
ever will be. That does not mean. how
ever, that men of science are likely
to concede that nothing more can be
learned about the tranSformatio
Of ideas into exercise. Much more
intricate riddles have been read, and
the effort to trace the mechanics of
what Shakespeare called doing" is
bound to continue.
One group of biologists has held
that the explanation might be diScov-
cred in chemistry; another, equally
impressive, insists that the desired
answer must be electrical in nature"
John J. ONeill, writing in the New
York Herald Tribune, says that the
controversy has narrowed itself to
the problem of what takes place at
the end of the nerve where it makes
contact with muscle" Almost any
portion OF the nerve system. it seems,
may serve, in effect, as a fraction of
the brain. Thomas Henry Huxley
long ago declared: In its essential
nature, nerve is a definite tract of
living substance through which the
molecular changes which occur in
any one part of the organism are
conveyed to and affect some other
part" Such view apparently is JUS
tilted by recent experiments.
Evidence in support of both chem
ical and electrical theories has been
reported in Science by Professor J. F.
Fulton of the Yale School of Medicine
and his colleague, DR.. D. Nachman-
sohn of the same faculty, who have
been engaged in a careful study OF
certain types Of hsh possessed Of

power to give electrical shocks. The
technical details of their paper prob
ably are beyond the comprehension
of the average lay reader, but their
conclusion is not insuperably difficult
to understand. A relatively common
variety Of the finny tribe is equipped
with series of electroplaxes-pairs
Of structures "one of which functions
as a nerve end and the other as the
plate OF muscle fiber"
Mr. O'Neill suggests: The thinking
of thought probably results in the
building up of store of energy in
the part of the brain involved, and
when the signal for action is given
this energy is released into the nerve
fiber. When it reaches the nerve
ending, 1t breaks the grip of an acetyl-
choline molecule on the nerve tissue,
with resulting electrical potential,
causing it to shoot to the muscle fiber,
where 1t discharges its energy, and
this In turn starts series of chem
ical building-up and breaking down
processes, the net result of which is
the expenditure Of a definite amount
of energy"
OF course, the problem of what
does or does not instigate "the think
ing of thought" remains unat-
tempted. The scientists are not very
distant from Saint John, who, at the
start OF his mystic gospel, proclaimed: :
In the beginning was the Word, and
the Word was with God, and the
Word was God"

Addresses Appeal
To Persons With Colds,
HARRIET BELLE WALKER.

To the Editor of The Star
In conjunction with the clty-Wide
cleanliness campaign, why not a drive for
disease prevention?
I ride to work every morning on
crowded streetcars. and going home 1
find the cars just as crowded, If not
more so; and to my dismay, I find that
many people are too careless to cover
their faces when they cough or sneeze.
The weather being as changeable as 1t
Is at this time Of the year, many people
have colds, and still they're too negligent
to cover their faces when they cough
and sneeze. I have had three colds in
the past month, just because some one
has coughed right into my face while
was standing up in crowded streetcar.
Isn't there some way in which this
dreadful lack of consideration for others
can be remedied? We who work in war
agencies are constantly reminded that
each day lost from work is help to our
enemies. How can We best convey this
fact to those who spread colds by their
thoughtlessness7 A READER.

A purple grackle counts the brilliant

For gypsy-autun1n' hours are

German Harvest Time

In his latest speech, marking the
annual German harvest festival,
Shriu little Doctor Goebbels said
nothing whatever that could con-
celVably put the people of the Reich
IN festive frame of mind. For this
year the harvest they are most con-
SclouS Of-and their propaganda
minister did little more than empha-
size it's the harvest of those who
have planted the wind and are now
beginning to reap the first real fruits
of it..
With the inimitable logic of the
NaziS-that logic that deties logic
Doctor Goebbels warned his listeners
in one breath that Germany would
have to pass through "a deep valley
Of suffering and pain" and in the
next breath bOaSted of the further
victorious continuation of the war"
To average Germans, not unaware of
what is happening in Russia, in Italy
and in the skies over Western Europe.
this kind of double talk must be
something less than convincing; nor
can it comfort them much to be told
that the LuftWatfe and the U-boat
fleet are preparing to strike SurpriS-
ing new decisive blows" They have
heard many such promises in the
past and have seen them too often

Public Utilities Commission
Held Responsible for Hardship"

To the Editor OF The Star:
I am sure the letter from r. S. and
L. t. in The Star for September 30,
stating that the Capital Transit Co.
was imposing an unnecessary hardship
upon large group of Government en-
ployes and others using the streetcar
loading platforms at Fourteenth street
and independence avenue Jefferson
drive) was an inadvertencv on their part.
lnasmuch as it is contrary to the facts
and the public record
On May 3, following a 3O-day trial
period of diScontnuance initiated bv
the Public Utilities Commission, this
company requested authority to restore
to use during the morning and evening
rush hours the streetcar stops mentioned
above
On May a. an informal hearing was
held before the Public Utilities Commits
sion at which time representatives of
the company and employees and officials
of the Department of Agriculture and
the Treasury Department urged the
restoration of the stops Reports of the
hearing were carried in the public press
On June Is as a result of the hearing,
the Public Utilities Commission found
that it was in the public's interest to con-
tlnue Order No. 1855, which provides
that: mo stops shall be made by street.
cars on Fourteenth street SW, at the
loading platforms at jefferson drive, be-
tween the hours of and $50 am, and
and 6 pm, on weekdays"
At the time of receiving the order and
since, in an effort to direct the public. we
placed on the platforms signs reading:
BY order of the P. U. c. this stop has
been discontinued between 500 and 9: 80
am. and and pm. on weekdays.

teenth and Streets

matter in the minds Of r. S. and L. T."
and others who have directly complained
to the company that the discontinuance
of the stops during the morning and
evening rush hours is an inconvenience
and hardship to them
