—Dietz on Science — MACHINES MAKE 3.000 KINDS OF ELECTRIC BULBS Robots Replace Human Labor in Process of Assembly. BV ROBERT DIETZ Howard *fence Kdilnr Robots with countless mechanical fingers make the electric incandescent buihs which Sight streets, places of business and homes. Skilled workers are required, but their task is to keep watchful eyes upto the robots. Although materials from seventeen foreign nations and the United States, ranging from feldspar from Greenland to tungsten from China, go into the lamps the actual assembly of a lamp, once the materials are prepared, is the matter of only a few minutes. To the eye there seems to be only three major parts in an incandescent lamp, namely the bulb, the filament and the base. Actually, however, there are eleven major parts in the lamp Work Is Painstaking It is in the preparation of these eleven parts that most of the painstaking work goes. For example, the drawing of the fine tungsten wire for the filaments of some of the small lamps is a process requiring two we->ks to complete. But once the eleven parts are ready, the job of assembly goes quickly under the direction of skilled workers About three thousand different kinds of incandescent lamps are manufactured, according to Mr. Broadbent. Lamps for household use, ranging in size from 10-watt to 100-watt lnnijis, constitute only a small fraction of those made. At one end of the lamp family is the •gram of wheat" lamp, which ,gets l's name from the fact that it resembles a grain of wheat in shape and size. It consumes only onefifth of a watt of electricity and could be burned all day long for an entire year at a cost of 10 c-mts for current The lamps are used in surgical instruments, such as those used for examining the sinus region of the h a ad. I.amps for Outdoor At the other end of the family 'is the 10,000-watt lamp which has a glass bulb twelve inches in diameter. This huge lamp would cost $:>.000 for electricity if operated continuously for a year. Its principal uses are in motion picture studios The movie makers hnd to quit using arc lights when the talkies came in That was because the microphones picked up the hiss and splutter of the arcs. Among other strange lamps is a tubular lamp and inch and a half in diameter and three feet long. These lamps are used for special architectural effects in outdoor ilumination. A large number of them are in use at the Chicago A Century of Progress world fair. Still another unusual type of lamp is used for illumination in deep-sea diving. Dr William Bebee used these special lamps when he made his trip a half nulo down into the ocean in his steel diving ball or oathosphere.

WIRE FIRMS PROSPER UNDER RECOVERY ACT Telegraph Business in Capital Is B< nmed by Code Hearings. Hu I nil . <I I'n • WASHINGTON. July 21.—The recovery art already has brought prosperity back to the telegraph companies as well as to Washington hotels and restaurants. Trade association officials at work on codes here are forced to keep in constant touch with the business men they represent, and since speed is the essence of all agreements, they use the wires. Protests are telegraphed in and answers are telegrapheed out. For instance, when President Roosevelt modified the cotton textile code with a final order on the subject last Sunday night, it cost the Cotton Textile institute $3,000 to notify all its members by wire. The code became effective exactly two hours after the order was made public. NOT RAIN. JUST INSECTS “Daddy l ong legs” Move in Blanket Formation in Siam. Bu t nit' <i Hrr** WASHINGTON. July 21—If you should visit a river bank in the mountains of northern Siam some evening and suddenly think vou hear rain falling and at the same time seem to notice the ground moving, don't blame it on what you’vee been drinking, for Dr Hugh Smith, collaborator of the Smithsonion institution, has the explanation. Dr Smith, who also is fisheries adviser to the Siamese government, explains that he recently pitched camp on a river bank in that vicinity. which was covered with a living carpet of "daddy longlegs." with legs nearly three inches long. "The entire surface of the land seemed to be in motion." Smith says. “They become active at dusk and when they moved over the dried leaves they made a noise like falling raindrops "

George Somnes Becomes First Line Film Director Former Director of Indianapolis Civic Theater Becomes a Real Power in Hollywood’s Movieland.

BV WALTER D. HICKMAN II THEN you learn that George Somnes has his name on the back of VV a chair in the great Paramount studios in Hollywood, you can b*> assured that this former director of the Playhouse productions of the Civic theater r.f this city has gotten some place. I have absolute proof of Somnes' success as a director because Paramount in its new costly and elaborate production book for the coming season lists and pictures Somnes as a first line director.

This Paramount book pictures Somnes with himvlf seated in his chair with his own name on it with .‘-uch urea 1 men as Cecil B De Milie, Ernst Ltibitsch, Rouben Manoulian, Norman Taurog. Stephen Roberts,

Norman McLeod, Stuart W al k e r and Indianapolis has a proud claim on him. also ) Wesley Ruggles, Josef Von Sternb erg, Marion Gering. Al Hal, Louis Gftsnier, Mitchell Leisen and Henry Hathaway. That is certaily putting Somnes' chair among the mighty in Hollywood. and I am as pleased with this

gifted man's success as he must be himself. P has been my pleasure to sit, talk and dine as well as dream theater with Somn->s while he was in Indianapolis Often we did not agree, and many times I have taken adverse critical opinion of his acting and his directing, and I have often, in fact, many times, raved over his ability. The Paramount book in writing of Somnes, states—“ Associate of Faversham, William Brady, John Barrymore . . His wealth of stage experiences makes him a valuable addition to Paramount's staff of directors." In writing of Stuart Walker, the book prints—"A name to conjure with in the American theater for many years . . . The Stuart Walker Players were nationally famous . . .

Contract Bridge

BY W. F. M’KENNEY Secretary American Under I f.icur r T'HE real test of skill at bridge is duplicate play. Here you not only must be satisfied to make your contract, but you must endeavor to win as many tricks as possible. You can make your contract at duplicate and still be bottom on the board if there are one or two extra tricks in the hand. South, the dealer, starts the contracting with a bid of one club. Many players would not consider bidding the West hand. However, it is not a bad holding with which to put in a negative double. If partner responds with a spade, diamond or a no trump, you can bid two hearts. As that great player. P Hal Sims, explains on a hand of this type, "Nothing much can happen.” If you go down, your opponents probably have a game or a slam, and the double might put you in a position to take a sacrifice against a game bid. But with "or without the double North will bid his diamonds. This suits East very well and he will pass. South now should jump to two no trump. North will bid three diamonds. South should go to three no trump. Against three no trump. West will open the jack of hearts which South, the declarer, will win with the ace. The club suit immediately will be started by leading the ace and king. On the second club. F,ast shows out. discarding a small heart. bob THE declarer should lead the eight of diamonds, and when tlie queen is played from the dummy. Fast will win the trick with the ace and return the queen of hearts, winch South should refuse to win. Remember that South now can count nine sure tricks. He must try for the extra trick. East will return the six of hearts, which South will win wih the king, discarding another diamond from dummy. The two club tricks are cashed, the second club being won in dummy with the queen East is forced to discard a diamond and a spade. Declarer then cashes the king of diamonds from dummy, and East plays the ten West shows out, discarding a heart. Declarer now has a safe play for the extra trick—all he has tc do is to lead the nine of diamonds from
