Scholar Finds 'Aeneid'
In Mathematical Form

A Princeton professor of the
classics feels he has discovered,
admittedly by accident, that
Vergil, the Roman poet. applied
mathematical symmetry in his
epic poem, the "Aeneid."
DR.. George E. Duckworth,
the professor. announced the
revelations yesterday to men,
bers Of the Classical ASsocia-
ton of the Atlantic States,
meeting at the Sheraton-Park
Hotel.
DR.. Duckworth said Vergil
to notice the mathematical
equations in Vergils poetry
about 1858. He said the dis
covery was as exciting as ex-

world.
could not have written his
poetry in such a way uncon-
sciously. that it could not have
been pure chance.
He passed out two sheets Of
figures to the audience to dem
onstrate how he had broken
up the Aeneid into various
mathematical series, or ratios.
Vergil, apparently on pur-
pose. wrote three lines. then
five, then eight, then 13 and
so on. DR.. Duckworth said 1t
is known that the poet, who
lived from 10 to 19 B. c., was
interested in mathematics as
a youngster.
This is not a numbers
game" DR.. Duckworth empha-
sized.
Most of the scholars in the
audience remembered that Al
fred Lord Tennyson, another
poet. called the hexameter
verse Of the Aeneid, the
"stateliest measure ever nodded
by the lips of man."
Last night, the group dined
at st. Adams School and heard

Gave Self Up

block Of Seventh street, Sc,
who on Thursday confessed to
an assault charge that had
jailed another man for four
days. was found not guilty
yesterday.
Municipal Court Judge John
J. Malloy said there apparently
had been SUFFICIENT justification
for the assault on Robert Ed

block Of Eighteenth street, NE.
Mr.. Hines testified that he
saw Thompson approach his
wife last Saturday night at
Eighth and I streets, Sc. and
slap her and make obscene re-
marks to her, according to As
sistant United States Attorney
w. Frank Stickle, jr.
When Mr.. Hines, who has
two broken feet, got within
20 feet of Thompson, Thompson
stuck one hand in his pocket.
Then Mr.. Hines, believing that
Thompson was going to pull
out a weapon. said he threw
aside his crutches, and hobbled
over and cut Thompson on the
neck and face with a pocket
knife, Mr.. Sickle said.
Thompson was taken to
Casualty Hospital and was ad-
mitted in critical condition.
He was released Thursday.
Another man who walks on
crutches. Thomas Washington
43. originally was charged with
assaulting Thompson and spent
four days in the District jail
awaiting preliminary hearing.
Washington was released

charged with assault with &
deadly weapon but the charge
was reduced to simple assault
when he went to trial.

PRIVATE USES BAD CHECKS
TO BUY WAY OUT OF ARMY

An Army private has succeeded in his scheme to
get out OF the service by passing bad checks.
The United States Court of Military Appeals ruled
yesterday that Pfc Jack O. Clay of Philadelphia knew
what he was doing when he made out two bad checks
of $40 each and was dShonorably discharged.
At his court martial in September 1885, at Fort SILL
Okla the private said the he had made out the
checks was to get out Of the Army.
His war with the Army started in 1858 when he was
sentenced to years confinement and dishonorable
discharge for deserng his post Pvt Clay said He served
the time but the day he got out appeals ruling
on another case suspended his discharge and he was
sent back to active duty at Fort Sill
When he got there he tried to find way to get an
honorable discharge. When he couldn't, he thumbed
through Army regulations and found section covering
unstable financial accounts and devised the bad-check
scheme. Although he wrote the bad checks he gave
company ohicer money to hold in safe restitution
could be made, he said.
The court martial found him guilty and sentenced
him to dishonorabe discharge But then the Board of
Review decided he had wrongly pleaded guilty to the
bad-check charges because he hadn't intended to de-
fraud anyone.
The Appeals Court action overruled the board and
in effect gave the private his discharge.
