USE OF ‘DRY ICE’ IN HOMES SEEN Chicago.— (U.R) — California is in luck again. Thomas B. Slate, pioneer construction engineer in refrigeration, says an almost inexhaustible supply of the game of which “dry ice” Is made has been found a.t the back door of the Imperial Valley. The great va’ley in the southeastern part of California is the source of much of the fresh pro- j duce sold in the East. Hundreds | of thousands of carloads of pro-1 duce leave the valley yearly, and i virtually all must be refrigerated. I Slate revealed that he has two • wells in service near Salton Sea | which produce the gas. carbon dioxide, a,t a pressure of 230 pounds.! He said the gas could be converted into “dry ice" at a cost of no more than $lO a ton. "Dry ice"! is about five times more efficient j than water ice and evaporates completely, leaving neither stain nor f residue. Slate believes the United Sta'es • eventually will see "dry ice” sold house to house as water is sold i today. He said a survey of the carbon dioxide gas field by Dwight C. Roberts. California geologist. w r as the basis for the American Chemical Society’s announcement that the field contains about 35.- J 000,000,000 cubic feet of the gas. enough to make 1,000,000 tons of “dry ice.” Slate said “dry ice” is made by putHng the tasteless, harmless gas under intense pressure until it so'Jdifies. The inner temperature of a block of such “ice” is about minus 110 degrees. o— Taps Power Line, Dies Os Shock Kokomo, Ind., Aug. 10—(U.R) — With the coal oil supply almoet, exhausted in his home, Earl Valentine, 45, decided to tap a power line in front of his farm home, i five miles northwest of here. Shortly afterward he was found dead, a victim of electric shock. One wire had been cut and he held the other. o Indiana Manufacturer Reports Notes Stolen Boston.

PLAYERS CALL FOR NEW DEAL - IN U. S. TENNIS Davis ('up Defeat Charged To Policy of Ignoring Younger Men By George Kirksey United Press Staff Correspondent New York (U.R) America's disastrous attempt to win the Davis Cup from England lias brought a storm of protest from tennis players und followers throughout the country. The main criticism of Captain Joseph Wear's handling of the United States team Is not because. Wilmer Al’lson, veteran Texan, was selected to play both the singles and doubles in the challenge round. b»t because America continues to ignore promising young, players and refuses to build for the future. It was pointed out that even had the United S ates wrested the trophy from England, this country would have had trouble defending! it successfully next year because it success eaoin shrd mfwy e'ae| of the neglect in developing young- • sters for aDavis Cup duty. Two-Year Plan Urged The general opinion in tennis circles is that America should select a group of youngsters and start building a team around «hem | now for 1936. Sacrifice a victory in the inter-zone final if necessary ! to give the players experience and confidence for the ma'ches two years hence. Henry Culley, who recently returned from Europe as er two two years of play on foreign courts I believes America should take a i squad of five or six youngsters to | Europe next year and campaign them strenous'y. "I'd take over Dane Budge. Frankie Parker, Gene Majso, Sidney Wood, and Bryan Grant and let them play in rhe French and Wimbledon championships and pick the team on their showing abroad." said Culley. “The talk of too much tennis is all the bunk. , Rival For Austin Suggested Wilmer Hines. South Carolina boy who campaigned in Europe this year, believes 'that America' should concentrate on getting a player to beat Bunny Austin. “We always underestimate Austin forget'ing 'hat he is at his .best in the Davis Cup matches,” i said Hines. Cliff Sutler. New Orleans. No. 8 in the United States '.unkings.l • betieves that the Davis Cup com-i mittee pays too much attention to | [the previous’ year's records in selecting a team. “I think we ought 'o take a big • squad over,” said Sutter, “and let l the showing abroad determine; I the team. Why worry abou; last| year’s records? They don’t mean

i much. Pick the players when they' are hot. It Ellsworth Vines had been named for the team the first yes.r he won the na'ional title. America would have probably won I the cup from France, instead of ‘ England.” Tilden Favored As Coach Several prominent tennis players believe that "Big Bill” Tilden or Mercer Beasley, the tennis 1 coach, should be picked to assist the cap uin in training and selectling the team. Whatever may be done, it is Icerta'n that America's sixth falllire to bring back the Davis Cup has cau-ed considerable unrest in • 'eunis circles. Now .hat Allison and Van Rvtr have failed in the doubles, and Allison in the singles. lit seems that they should be relieved of Davis Cup service and the younger p'ayers given a chance. — -o Heat Bests Worshippers MEMPHIS.
