‘FUELLESS'IDEA OF POWER OLD TO INVENTORS Fiv* Patents on Similar Projects Already Have Been Granted. BT CECIL OWEN United Press Staff Correspondent (Copyright, 1928, by United Press! WASHINGTON, March B.—Five patents on Inventions, believed to embody a principle similar to that of the so-called "fuelless motor” recently credited to Lester J. Hendershot of Pittsburgh, already have been granted by the United States patent office, the United Press learned today. All five of the Inventions, two dating back to the last century, depend for their power on electricity extracted from the air or the earth and each professes to operate without fuel or batteries. Believe Devices Worthless Experts at the patent office believe the devices to be commercially valueless and impracticable. Patents could not be obtained on them today as inventors are now required to demonstrate the feasibility as well as the novelty of the apparatus to be patented. The first apparatus of this type was patented a year before the civil war, 1860, by H. C. Vion, a resident of Paris. Vion’s idea was to extract electricity from the clouds and the earth with a captive balloon and a wire conductor. Positive electricity from the atmosphere was to be united with negative currents from the ground in Vion’s apparatus "thus forming an electrical pile of considerable power.” Tries to Catch Lightning This invention later was improved upon by a Philadelphian, William L. Pennock, who in 1909 obtained a patent on a similar device to capture electricity from the clouds and carry it through wires to an "energy accumulator.” By his invention, Pennock asserted he could transform the electricity ordinarily dissipated as lightning into usable power. Another method was patented in 1901 by A. Palenscar of Budapest, Hungary, who proposed to release energy by condensing water drop-

lets in the air. He had an elaborate arrangement to "step down” power thus generated. Power Was to Jump A complicated scheme was patented in 1872 by William H. Ward of Auburn, N. Y., proposed to project electricity : in the air from one tall tower to another. These towers were supposed to draw the electricity from the surrounding atmosphere and then release it in the direction of the prevailing winds, which were to carry the energy to other towers, thus setting up a system of electrical communication distantly akin to modern radio.

By United Press TOKIO, March B.—Although the imperial family observed unofficial mourning today over the death of Princess Hisa, six-months-old daughter of Emperor Hirohito, State functions were not suspended. This was in keeping with the precedent that death of a member of the royal family, under 7 years of age, would not bring a cessation of State activities. The coronation plans were not altered.

MUSSORGSKY AGAIN IS THE CHARMER
The Gordon String Quartet Does That Fine Thing of Giving a Splendidly Built Program With Great Skill and Musical Understanding. BY WALTER D. HICKMAN It is seldom that artists are called upon by honest and prolonged applause to repeat two of its regular numbers on a single program. That happened yesterday afternoon at the Masonic Temple to the Gordon String Quartet. There were several reasons for this.
First, the expert and beautiful playing of the four men making up this organization. Second, because the program included compositions of Edouard Lalo and Mussorgski. There are many elements in the compositions of both writers that would cause one to hear them repeated. Lalo’s "Serenade” reached that fine high peak because of its playing that the audience demanded more but the big ovation came after playing Mussorgski’s “An Old Castle,” arrangement by A. Pochon of the Flonzaley Quartet, if I am not wrong. There was no doubt that the audience wanted to hear more of Mussorgski and the quartet repeated “An Old Castle.” Here is sad beauty and the theme gets both into the heart and the brain v box. Again Mussorgski turned out to be the charmer, but this time a string quartet was used as a medium. There is much to be said in favor of the way th£ program was arranged. It opened with Dittersdorf Quartet in E Flat Major, which gave the organization plenty of opportunity for beautiful ensemble program. Os course, one could not help but notice the individual merit of the work of Jacques Gordon, first violin. Asa whole, the Gordon String Quartet is one of those rare organizations thaVis carrying into the hearts of the people the love of chamber music. Here is a splendidly trained group of men, intelligent and earnest, , The concert yesterday, given under the direction of the Indianapolis Matinee .Musicale, was one of most satisfying beauty. A rare treat. tt Florence Cole-Talbert, colored dramatic soprano, who is making her first American tour after her
