Hooper Clues

Hooper accompanied the hood
lum's wife to Lansing and ap-
peared before the liquor COM
mission on their behalf.
"The place did not lose Its
license. But the hOodhm in
sists he did not pay Hooper
money. Neither had he reason
to suspect an affair between his
wife and the senator"
STORY DOESN'T CHECK
apparently attracted by the
reward of $4,000 offered for
information, a man in Bay City
told us he heard this hOodlum
threaten Hooper in a restaurant
In that town last October. As
a matter of fact. the hoodlum,
no longer In the saloon business,
proved to us he was at work
in Detroit the day of the alleged
threat.
He has been divorced from
his wife, who was supposed TO
be present when the threat was
made. We have found that the
wife has since married a sailor
and was out of the state at the
time"
Sigler said the informant
promptly folded up" when he
was confronted by the hoodlun
last night.
Repeating there is no evidence
Of any woman angle in the
senator's private affairs, Sigler
added:
We are not interested in any
details of his private life which
have no direct bearing on the
murder"

Poultry Constitutes
" Per Cent of Weight

The Pennsylvania experiment sta
ton has answered the question Of
how much drawn poultry can be
obtained from a thousand pounds Of
good fat live frying chickens. The
experiment was carried on with
well finished White Wyandotte cock
erels.
Flesh constitutes 60.99 per cent;
giblets, which includes heart, liver
and gizzard. account for 4.49 per
cent; and the bones of the body
alone, which are included in the
drawn weight, account for 7.42 per
cent, making a total Of 1928 per cent
of the original live weight. This con-
stitutes what food purchasers call
the yield" from 100 pounds of
live poultry as purchased. 1t is en-
phaSized that these were well fat
tened White Wyandotte cockerels of
good market type, averaging about
5h pounds live weight.
Other data that may be of inter-
est are that the blood, which was
collected, amounted to 3.57 per
cent, feathers 8.97 per cent, intes-
tines 6.78 per cent, head and feet
7.78 per cent Of the live weight.

Longer Days Spur Robins
Flight North, Tests Show

If the robins come north, it's not
because they know it's getting
warmer here, as the myth says.
They return because changing day.
lengths on their wintering grounds
have altered their whole physiolog-
ical condition and because they
had stored up a supply Of fat suf-
fcient to provide energy for the
spring migration to their breeding
grounds, DR.. Albert Wolfson, in
structor of zoology at Northwestern
university, concluded from a series
OF experiments.
Though some scientists believe
that the increased light acts direct
ly on the pituitary glands Of the
birds, producing hormones that
change their condition. Wolfson be-
ieves that the problem is somehow
related to the changed ratio be-
tween sleep and wakefulness. His
experiments, conducted in Califor-
MIA over a fve-year period, proved
that an artificial increase in day
lengths could induce migration in
January. causing the birds to arrive
In the s~now-covered north far ahead
of schedule.
Some scientists believe that a bird
migrates when its reproductive or
gans have reached a particular
stage. But Wolfson's studies show
thai this is only a part of the gen
orally changed psychological condi-
tons that cause migration.

New Chemicals Prolong
Life of Materials

There are new chemical COM
pounds which aid in the dyeing Of
materials so that they become more
permanent to light and laundering.
The old problem of gas fading will
disappear, and the materials used
for interior decorating will stand up
against prolonged exposure to sun
and heat without fading or disinte-
grating.
Moth-proofng of wool will become
permanent. 1t will do away with
the trouble Of carefully storing win
ter blankets and clothing and will re-
lieve US Of the worry Of moths in
floor coverings and upholstered fur
niture. Wool will also have its
shrinkage cut to a minimum, which
will prevent mating and scuffing
and make it crease-resistant.
The little silverfish which thrives
on rayon will meet its match, for
rayon can be given a bug-proof fin
ish. This finish also gives rayon a
lasting crispness and stability and
increases its number of uses. Flame
retardant finishes have been devel-
oped for war use and will be avail
able on postwar fabrics for our use.
Mildew ~retardants have also been
developed for war use and will pro-
vide us with shower curtains, out
door furniture fabrics and awnings
that will be safe from that destruc-
tive mold called mildew.
