—Dietz on Science — STARS GIVE ONE PERSPECTIVE ON OUR DAILY LIFE Dietz Uses Grape Seed to Represent Earth in Universe Model. BY DAVID DIETZ Scripps-Howard Science Editor One of my regular readers writes me a letter, asking that I print a comparison which I frequently use In lectures to illustrate the size of the universe. He is a fine old scholarly gentleman who has a telescope mounted in a tiny observatory in his back yard. He has been a wise man who has not allowed the bright lights of the city to crowd the light of the stars out of his life. Ralph Waldo Emerson, the great American poet and philosopher. Once observed that if a man were permitted to gaze at the stars only once in his lifetime, he would spend years preparing for that one wonderful glimpse of the night sky with its golden array of twinkling stars. But because the wondrous panorama of the heavens is spread out for us every cloudless night, we give very little thought to it. A Modern Paradox The shepherd watching his flock by night in centuries gone by was far more familiar with the stars than most of us are today. This is one of the paradoxes of modem life. The modem astronomer is busy pushing out the limits of the universe. His telescope reveals to him stars that must always remain invisible to the unaided eye. He sees stars which the ancients did not know were in existence. But while the astronomer has been extending the limits of the universe. many of us have been restricting the limits of the universe for ourselves. In fact, we have almost crowded the universe out of our lives. We have found the lights of the city so bright that we have lost track of those marvelous lights which hang above the city. One of Life’s Treasures This is unfortunate. For if we eliminate acquaintance with the great heavens overhead from our lives, we have permitted one of life's highest treasures to slip through our fingers. We need a knowledge of the facts of astronomy. We need it to get a proper perspective upon life, to understand the relation of our earth to the rest of the universe. Let us imagine, therefore, that we are going to construct a model ot the universe. (This is the comparison my friend asks for.) Let us start with the sun. We will take a globe, one foot in diameter, and use that to represent the sun. We will find then that the proper object to represent the earth, if we adhere to the same scal°. is a small seed about the size of a grape seed. Let us imagine the seed revolving around the globe in a sort of flattened circle at a distance of 100 feet. We then have a model to •scale of the earth revolving around the sun. The actual distance from the sun to the earth is 93.000,000 miles. Therefore in our model. 100 feet represents 93.000.000 miles. Seed for Moon The moon would be represented by a seed one-fourth the size of the grape seed, revolving around it at a distance of three inches. Besides qur earth there are seven other planets revolving around the sun. These would be represented in our model by objects ranging in size from one smaller than the grape seed to one the size of a cherry. The one closest to the globe would be thirty feet from it. The outermost one would be two-thirds of a mile away. Some of these objects would have smaller ones revolving around them, for just as our own earth has one moon, some of these planets have more than one moon. Astronomers call the sun with its eight planets and their attendant satellites or moons, the solar system. Accordingly, the model which we have Just made would be one of the solar system. Now suppose we start to put the rest of the universe in our model. Our sun, astronomers have proved, is nothing more nor less than a star. Every Sun Is Star It differs in appearance from the stars, because our earth is so close to it. To put it the other way around, every star is a sun. Stars appear so small because they are so far away. If we take another globe to represent the nearest star we will find that if our model of the solar system is located in York we must place the nearest star in London. And remember that in our model 100 feet represents 93.000.000 miles. The nearest star is twenty-five trillion miles away. So far apart are the stars that if we kept our model to scale, and used the whole surface of the earth for it, we would only have room for three or four stars, and there are forty billion stars in the galaxy.

Contract Bridge

BY W. E. M’KENNEY IffrfUrn American Brid(( Lean* AS I have often said, distribution plays an all-important part in bridge. Before starting in on the play of the hand, stop and try to get a picture of the distribution of the outstanding cards. A careful analysis may show you that there is danger in the distribution of a certain suit, especially as there might be a singleton in one hand or the other. The following interesting hand was selected from the National Knockout team-of-four championship South and West passed. North opened the contracting with one heart. East overcalled with one spade.

AA-10-4 ¥K-3-7-4-2 ♦ 2 4.A-9-8-2 *Q-J- I north) 4^.9. 8-2 fe m 7-5-3 ¥6-5-3 uj fn ¥ A-Q ♦ K-Q- 5 H ♦ J-7-6 10-8-3 !><**•• +J-6-3 *lO SOUTH *6 ¥ J-10-9 ♦ A-9-5-4

To overcall with one spade shows partner a hand in which you are not strong enough to make a negative double, as you are not prepared to play the hand at two spades. South bid two clubs. West bid two spades—not bothering to show the diamond suit. North bid three hearts. East went to three spades, South went to four hearts and West took the contract to four spades. South’s opening lead was the jack of hearts, which East, the declarer, won with the queen. In counting the hand the declarer could see one losing spade, a losing diamond, and a losing club —game in sight. But here is the danger of the hand there may be a singleton diamond out. If the declarer leads a spade it will be won by the ace and now the singleton diamond may be led, the ace cashed and the diamond ruffed, which would defeat the contract. To prevent this, the declarer leads a diamond, leading the jack, and now when South wins with the ace, it would lead into this set-up suit in dummy, so his natural play is the king of clubs. North should play the deuce, hoping to encourage his partner to shift to a diamond. Os course, if the diamond suit is played. North will ruff and the contract will be defeated. However, if South makes any other play the contract of four odd is made. (CopvrlKht. 1933. by NEA Service Inc.)

MOVE TO BRAND PLANT NUISANCE Southeast Residents Attack , Rendering Firm in Petitions. Petitions have been filed with state, county and city officials by more than eighty property owners and residents of the southeastern part of the city urging that the rendering plant of the John Wachtel Company, Southern avenue and Illinois Central railroad, be declared a nuisance. Conference of the various officials, company representatives and petitioners will be held in an effort to decide upon a course of action. Odors from the plant, the petition declares, are injurious to nearby residents and reduce value of property in the vicinity. City health authorities state they have received many complaints regarding the plant, and have made investigations. They explain, however, that they are powerless to act due to a state law which provides that an industry in which more than $50,000 is invested can not be closed or forced to close except on court order—in a proceeding to which the state must be a party. Petitions were filed with the state health board. Attorney-General Philip Lutz, Prosecutor Herbert E. Wilson, city health and safety boards and city legal department.

Eagle Is ‘Goat’ NRA Hours Get Blame for Workers’ Absences From Home.

By United Press WASHINGTON, Aug. 30Several recovery administration workers have found it difficult to explain to wives or mothers that the sole reason they come home late at night is because of the long hours they must put in to get the rest of the country on a forty-hour week. One tired official left his office at 1 a. m. Sunday. He found his parked automobile hard to start. Utterly exhausted he slumped over the wheel. When he awoke it was dawn. He spent Sunday explaining to his wife. A young clerk's mother had her suspicions about his long hours. Finally last Sunday, after he had told her he had to work all day, she decided to find out for herself. She came down in the early evening. apparent* hopeful her suspicions were warranted.

BANK REOPENING TO BE SPEEDED AS AIDTO NRA Roosevelt Is Expected to Tackle Job Because of Recovery Tieup. BY THOMAS L. STOKES Time* Staff Writer WASHINGTON, Aug. 30.—Liberalization of treasury policy to hasten reopening of closed banks was forecast today as pressure increased for prompt action. Demands for a change of policy became so insistent that Currency Comptroller J. F. T. O'Connor is going to the country tonight with an address explaining what the treasury is up against in reopening banks. More than $2,000,000,000 still is tied up. President Roosevelt is expected to tackle this problem shortly because of its connection with his recovery program. Freeing of frozen funds materially would assist the ‘‘buy now” campaigns getting under way. The treasury’s slow procedure was attacked again today in two quarters—by Former Attorney General A. Mitchell Palmer, counsel of the national depositors’ commitee, representing 6,000,000 depositors, and by the committee for the nation, composed of outstanding business men and economists. Each offered plans for speeding up bank reopenings. Both emphasized the need of freeing money to increase purchasing power and buttress the recovery campaign. Palmer charged that some conservators are in no hurry to open their banks since they are making better salaries now than they did as employes of the bank—a serious indictment. At the present rate, he said, it would take two years to open all the banks. “The government’s delay in repairing the nation’s banking structure has brought serious harm to individuals and communities and has become a menace to national recovery,” said the committee of the nation. “It is important to the administration’s recovery plans that frozen deposits, should be released as soon as possible,’’ Palmer declared. He said it is possible under his plan,, now being considered by O’Connor, to open almost all of the restricted banks at once. He proposed to classify restricted banks into four groups with definite requirements for each, give them sixty days to comply, and then liquidate those which failed to comply.

FEENEY BROADENS SAFETY CAMPAIGN Asks Gas Attendants Check on Faulty Lights. A1 Feeney, state safety director, prepared today to enlist employes of filling stations throughout Indiana in a year-around safety campaign. The employes will be asked to check automobile headlights and tail lights along with their other duties, and where lights are out, to suggest purchase of bulbs. Credit fsr the idea is given by Feeney to C. A. Buffington, Culver police chief. Feeney announced today that 300 Indiana police chiefs have pledged co-operation in a one-week safety drive to open Saturday under his direction. The artificial lake created by Boulder dam on the Colorado river will be made into a refuge for wild animals and birds. A'

Bussey Offers Second of Amateur Series Movie Fans Have a Chance to See What Newcomers in Movies are Directing and Creating for Entertainment. BY WALTER D. HICKMAN* * TONIGHT and Thursday night at the Cropsey auditorium of the public library, Pennsylvania and St. Clair streets, W. Stuart will present the second showings in a series of outstanding amateur motion picture productions made in various cities of the country. The program is made up of three productions of the Greenbrier Amateur Movie Club at White Sulphur Springs, West Virginia. The program starting at 8 o’clock will present “The Blick Door,” “Any Ice Today, Lady?” and “Two Minutes to Play.” Bussey gives me the following data on “‘The Black Door:” “A three reel mystery drama in costume and locale in a small king-

dom in Europe. This film w T on fourth prize in the 1932 International prize winning contest of 16mm. Amateur Motion Pictures sponsored by the American Cinematographer, magazine of the professional motion picture photographers, published in Hollywood, Cal. w. "In the mythical kingdom of Sylvania the traditional choice of the Black Door, or the firing squad for the condemned, had been inaugurated by the ancient King Vulcan the First. “The secret of this black door had been inviolately passed on from commander to commander until the present time. On this faify lore the plot of the movie is based. Captain Paul Statler, able air force ace, forsakes duty for love, and when courtmartialed, has to take the dreadful choice. “Bv an obvious chain of circumstances he learns that his beloved has been the mistress of his commander, and rather than take her advice—the Black Door's opening to freedom and no mystery, he prefers to face the tune of the rifles. The story, laid in a Graustarkian principality of Europe, required costumes and sets in keeping with its background of high military officials, exotic ladies and gay life. “The Greenbrier Movie Club was fortunate in obtaining the co-opera-tion of the entire thirty-third pursuit squadron. United States army, consisting of eighteen Boeing pursuit planes, which play a decidedly important and dramatically significant part in the air sequences. “When the squadron called for a few days at Greenbrier airport, Director HaJ Morey suggested and secured this unusual co-operation, probably placing an army air group for the first time as an integral part of an amateur photoplay. “Leading roles in the picture are. played by Lucille Dixon, J.

Tour in New Ford to the Shades Is Interesting and Instructive Journey

The little girl perched on the new Ford V-8 sedan, which was used in last Sunday’s drive and now is on display by all Indianapolis Ford dealers, is dreaming of the day when her “Daddy” will buy her anew Ford V-8.

Beautiful Scenery Reward of Visitor to Noted . State Park. BY STURGE WELLS Times Automobile Editor. This week’s tour, made in anew Ford V-8, through the courtesy of R. A. Hayes,' manager of the Indianapolis branch of the Ford Motor Company, included a visit to one of Indiana's most picturesque parks, the Shades. Taking route 34 out of Indianapolis and continuing through Pittsboro to Jamestown, where 234 intersects and offers a short cut to the Shades, we decided to take advantage of the shorter route rather than continue on to Crawfordsville and down by route 47. While the route we decided upon probably is shorter, we discovered too late, much to our chagrin, that 234, like many gravel roads, badly in need of reconditioning, was very rough and resembled a pair of “corduroy trousers,” rather than a good highway. Even so, it was found that many motorists prefer this road, possibly, because it takes one back closer to the “soil” and life on the farm. In one respect, this route has its advantages, in that, it enables the owner of anew car to determine whether his latest choice “can take it.” This reasoning worked out fine in our case, for it was quite a surprise to find how well the new Ford V-8 could take such punishment at moderate and also very high speeds. One’s first impression of the shades is something rather hard to describe. Possibly the late William Jennings Bryan, who is accredited with making the following comments on his first visit to this scenic resort, covered it about as well as any scribe ever has. Said Mr. Bryan: “I am surprised to find

mammoth exhibition of amateur cinematography in London, England, and also won fourth prize in the international contest conducted by the American Society of Cinematographers, Hollywood, Cal., competing with almost 300 pictures entered from all parts of the world.’’ Bussey is repeating the first showing here last month and says: “Last month there were approximately 100 people at each of the first two performances, but the third and final show packed them in over 300 strong, leaving only wall space and we had to put up extra chairs. Our local group of movie makers is working on an “all satire” film, Four Knights in a Barroom,’ the tentative title, and hope to have it finished for entering in the 1933 Hollywood contest as well as showing here sometime this fall. “Will call you up when we start filming it. The barroom scenes will be shot first. ‘The Caveman’ film is shelved for present until leading lady is able to walk after breaking a bone in her foot falling off a horse. “ ‘The Four Knights’ story is sponsored by me with another group of talented people who made a similar film on Bmm. size, and liked it so well that we are elaborating on plot and expect to start shooting in a week from now.” ana Indianapolis theaters today offer: “Pilgrimage" at the Apollo, "The Life of Jimmy Dolan” on the screen and seven acts of vaudeville on the stage at the Circle, "Turn Back the Clock" at the Palace, “Her Bodyguard" at the Lyric, “The Wrecker" at the Ambassador, burlesque at the Mutual and at the Colonial. Neighborhood theaters today offer: “Circus Queen Murder" at the Tacoma, 'Grand Slam at the Stratford. ‘Emergency Call" at the Daisy. “Cynara" at the Princess. Movie Craxy" at the Rex. ' W’hen Ladies Meet" and "The Song of the Eagle" at the Garrick. "Strictly Personal" at the St. Clair. "Murders In the Zoo" at the Oriental, "Supernatural” at the Ritt "Terror Aboard" at the Uptown, "India Speaks" at the Strand, “Humanity” at the Fountain Square. "Destination Unknown" at the Belmont. "Cocktail Hour’ at the Talbott. “India Speaks’ at the Irving, and “Trick for Trick" and “Constant Woman" at the Hamilton.

The Shades such a picturesque spot. It is a glimpse of the mountains in the very midst of the prairie. Its springs, its deep ravines, its overhanging rocks, its waterfalls, and its great oaks combine to make it a most attractive place for rest and recreation.” While this description is brief, in my opinion, it ably covers the actual mass impression of an observing person, possessing an interest for the wonders of nature in their most beautiful /form—“in the raw.” Indians Roved Country Going back to the romantic days when the Indians roved the greater part of this section of the country, this place was known to them as the “Shades of Death,” owing to its many mysterious ravines and dense forests. It is said that the “Redskins” took to this retreat, and remained there long after they vacated the surrounding part of the country, because white men feared to invade this black forest, which they thought possessed unknown terrors for any one who dared to invade its innermost regions. Interesting and romantic trails have been mapped out in and around the many ravines, gorges and winding rock formations of this 2,000-acre reservation, which is reputed to be the largest privately owned park in the state, as well as one of the largest bird and small game sanctuaries. From beneath huge cliffs flow many mineral springs which form beautiful cascades as they wend their way toward the river. According to the management of the Shades, the waters of these springs have been analyzed and found to possess medical properties for restoration of a system exhausted by mental and physical strain. Plant Life Thrives Trees, flowers and plant life in general thrive abundantly here. Many of the trees resemble tall sentinels, so often seen in the larger forests in other parts of this country. These trees are the pride of the Garland Dell Mineral Springs Association, which claims that they have been preserved in their virginal growth, and never has one been sacrificed for commercial purposes. Typical of such scenic resorts, are numerous cottages and cabins available for guests wishing to spend a few days. However, if more elaborate accommodations are desired, there is a large white hotel of the rambling type, which possesses ample sleeping quarters, and like most of these kind of hotels, specializes in serving dinners to daily visitors. Picnic grounds and a limited number of amusements make up the greater part of the immediate park itself, and should appeal to the large Sunday family outing with restless children! SINCLAIR NAMES CROSS Manager Selected for Indianapolis District of Corporation, Official announcement of the appointment of W. D. Cross Jr. as manager of the Indianapolis district for the Sinclair Refining Company, has been made by Sinclair headquarters in Chicago. Cross has had years of successful experience with Sinclair and for several months prior to his appointment as manager was the acting Indianapolis manager. Under present arrangements, this district will continue to operate under supervision of the Columbus (O.) division, which controls Sinclair operations in Ohio and part of Indiana, and is headed up by R. L. Taylor, division manager.

HUPMOBILE APPOINTS NEW DISTRIBUTER

Officials of this new organization include James Kemp, president, former Duesenberg factory executive;

BUILDING STRIKE PEACE IS NEAR Some Carpenters Return to Work; Pay Raises Are Granted. Tieup of construction work in the city resulting from action of the local carpenters’ union Tuesday in calling out all union carpenters in a wage dispute, today was abating, with a number of the men back at work. Some carpenters employed on the new Indiana university dental school and on several smaller projects returned to work today, when contractors agreed to pay the union scale of $1.14 an hour. Contractors on other jobs were expected to capitulate soon to the union demands. The carpenters were called out, it was explained, because contractors were paying less than the union scale, some as low as 40 cents an hour. About 200 union men were affected by the call issued by the union. DEALER APPOINTMENT MADE BY CHEVROLET Coridan-Harding Company Will Be Representative Here, Formal announcement of the dealer appointment of CoridanHarding Chevrolet, Inc., 35 Virginia avenue, was made Saturday by E. W. Berger, manager of the Indianapolis zone of the Chevrolet Motor Company. Heading this new organization are Dean Coridan, president, and John V. Harding, secretary-treasurer. Coridan has represented Chevrolet in Fortville for the last five years. This dealership will continue to operate and will be managed by Coridan's brother, Eugene L. Coridan. Harding also is a Chevrolet man of experience, and for six years prior to his new venture was assistant accounting manager of the Indianapolis zone office of the Chevrolet Motor Company. This new south side dealership will be complete throughout, with attractive new car display rooms, full line parts department and a modern Chevrolet service department. BUICK GAIN CONTINUES First Ten Days of August Show Increase Over July. Buick's sales success in July was eclipsed in the first ten-day period of August by a retail volume amounting to almost 159 per cent of the deliveries recorded during the first ten days of August, 1932, according to W. F. Hufstader, Buick sales manager. “The medium price market is showing daily gains in strength,” said Hufstader. “Under normal conditions, the sales trend at this time of year should be definitely downward. But Buick sales for the entire month of July showed an increase of 88 per cent over the same month last year. “Now, with the early days of August bringing a continuation of that improvement, it appears that a great deal of belated buying is coming into the market and that the usual ‘expectation charts' are being proved pleasantly wrong.”

C. A. French, treasurer, who for five years was connected with the Capitol Motors Company, and W. E. Bisinger, secretary, for years a wholesale factory representative for the Willys-Overland company. All three of these men are well known throughout this section as experienced and successful operators. v _

‘OCTANE RATING' IS ‘TRANSLATED' FOR MOTORISTS It’s the Measurement for Anti-Knock Quality of Auto Fuel. Each week this column will be devoted to comments on a current subject applying to the automotive industry bv some personality identified with this field in Indianapolis This week J. A Fortner, whose appointment as manager of the Indianapolis division of the Phillips Petroleum Company was made public recently, will explain the meaning of the much-publicized term. "Octane Rating.” BY J. A. FORTNER Division Manager, Phillips Petroleum Cos. Recent announcements by many oil companies that the anti-knock rating of their respective gasolines has been raised in “octane rating” has brought a deluge of inquiries regarding octane number and its significance. Nearly every one knows that octane number is a measurement of the anti-knock quality of motor

fuel; that the higher the octane number, the greater the antiknock characteristics of the gasoline. In other words, a gasoline of 70 octane, which is top rating in the regular price class, will not knock on hills or during sharp accelerations, while a gasoline of 65 octane or less, will.

™ Art - v. /<*>

What seems to be arousing the curosity of most motorists is the reason for use of the octane. It’s all the fault of the technologists—the research engineers who develop and test gasolines in the many refinery laboratories throughout the country. After trying out many testing fuels to which gasolines might be compared for absence of knock, these scientists finally agreed on a mixture of octane and heptane, two pure hydrocarbons which burn like gasoline. Octane won’t knock; heptane makes a motor sound like a riveting machine. As the proportion of ociane to heptane in the testing fuel varies, so does the amount of knock vary. The gasoline motorists buy is tested in a one-cylinder motor, under conditions which stimulate those of actual automobile operation. The test engine is equipped with dials to show force of detonation, or knock, and to record temperature conditions. If the gasoline knocks just like testing fuel composed of 50 per cent octane and 50 per cent heptane, then the anti-knock rating of that gasoline is called 50 octane. If the gasoline’s detonation is the same as that of a7O per cent octane—3o per cent heptane mixture, the gasoline is 70 octane, which is just right for modern high-compression motors, according to automotive engineers. But pure octane and pure heptane cost about $25 a gallon. Their use exclusively as testing fuel would be like burning so many dollar bills. In actual testing, then, fuels with known characteristics in relation to standard octane-heptane mixtures are used as a standard by which gasolines to be tested are evaluated. So after all, octane number is an arbitrary figure, valuable only because It is the one on which all refiners have agreed as a measure of anti-knock quality.

During the early part of August, the, 1933 year-to-date sales of the Oidsmobile Six *nd Straight Eight passed the total Oidsmobile retail deliveries for the entire twelve months of 1932, according to Sales Manager IV M. W. Shaw. “Buying demand continues to show surprising strength,” said Shaw. “In the first ten days of August, Oldsmqbile sold more cars than in any corresponding period since 1929. In this single ten-day period of August, our sales were 63 per cent of the total Oidsmobile deliveries made during the entire month of August, 1932. Also, this period came within one car of exactly quadrupling the Oidsmobile volume in the first ten days of July, 1932. “To date, Oidsmobile has sold approximately 6,400 more cars than it delivered in the same period of last year.” ANNOUNCEMENTS I Death Notices CALDWELL, WILLIAM U*AN—Pszsed away at his residence 944 W. 31st at., Monday afternoon.
