Bonbings Do Not
Cause Rain Fall

Schenectady, N. Y, May 81
Do shells from cannon or heavy
bombings on the battlefronts
cause heavy transforms over
here? No! says L. A. Hawkins,
question and-answer authority OF
the General Electric Science Ro-
rum.
Recently Mr.. Hawkins, execu-
tive engineer of the gle Research
Laboratory, has received letters
asking if dad weather is caused
by the cannonading and other
explosions of war;"
Terrific as the forces let loose
in a heavy barrage or bombing
raid may seem to u.s." he answer
ed, "they are utterly puny and
ineffective compared with the
forces which control the weather.
1t has been we'll said that we
shall be able to control the wea-
Their only when we are able to
stop a mass of air of 190,O0O,O0O,-
600 tons from going on it's own
Perhaps the idea that battles
caused rains originated with the
fact an army usually gets into
position during good weather
while the roads are good, so that
by the time a battle begins a rain
period would be due, Mr.. Haw-
kins pointed out.
And people who believe a rain
store can be made during a dry
spell by firing cannon into the
clouds may as we'll forget that
theory, too, he said.

Greens will be moved and fair

the thud Of an approach shot this
season.
Officials have decided TO face
the facts" President William A.
Doyle said in announcing the lay
out would not be opened in 1913.
"Our course is farther from
the city than most and the
membership Is confined TO out
lying districts. Under gas re-
strictions, we can't expect
members to drive to Utica just
10 play golf" he said.
One optimistic note in the de-
cision was that the course would
be in condition should there be
an easing of gas rationing."
Clinton Valley was the scene Of
the Michigan p. G.. a. champion
ship last fall and was under the
care of Davey Miller. who had
been pro and greenkeeper since

Field Houses Ideal

KYLE ANDERSON (Univer-
sity of Chicago football coach)-
big league baseball people
would be surprised by the bene-
fits that can be derived by train
ing a team in a field house. I
would say that from the stand
point of conditioning legs and
arms and perfecting batting and
fielding form, the field house is
ideal. We've never had n sore
arm or leg in the spring In all
the years we've been training
our ball teams indoors"
