Philadelphia, June 12.—One of the : the recent eastern ck and field games was the double defeat of George Hill, Penn’s star runner. In the 1924 meet Hill won both the 100 and 220-yard dashes, making close to record time in each. This spring he appeared to be in better shape than ever and had been strong- ly counted upon by Red and Blue rooters to repeat. But in the century event, Chet Bowman of Syracuse and Bayes Nor- ton, Yale, proved too speedy, Hill vetting but third position. In the furlong, Russell of Cornell, rather sprung an upset by beating Hill to the tape by a scant margin. In 1924 Hill showed his hells to all these runners. bigg MILLER ONE OF BEST GUNNERS IN BIG T!

Pierre, S. D., June 12—South Da- kota, first state in the union to adopt the initiative and referendum, and first state to establish a system of rural credits as a branch of govern- ment, is interesting itself seriously in another governmental innovation—a one-house legisl: : The un gislative reform is proposed and sponsored by Robert Emmett Dowdell, a veteran Democrat and state senator, but it has gained support from so wide a rang of polit- ical thought in the state that it al- ready looms as a major issue in the legislature of 1927. Dale an contemplates elimination of the state senate and house of rep- | resentatives, now composed of 46 and | 103 members, respectively, and the setting up in their stead of a single house with from 16 to 21 members. This body would meet at feast once every three months, to enact neces- sary legislation, and it could be ‘in session continuously or whenever th was need for it to sit. Its members would be elected from dis- tricts in proportion to population, and with little regard for county lines. Senator Dowdell first proposed the plan 17 years ago, but not. until re- cent years has his innovation found general support or gained enough ad- herents to bring it before the legis- lature for serious consideration. The state “senate, at the 1925 session,- passed by a handsome majority a resolution by Dowdell submitting to the voters of the state a constitution- al amendment to abolish the house and senate and set up the unicam- eral law-making body. The resolu- tion died in the house, when adop- tion of an unfavorable committee re- port prevented it from coming to the floor for debate on its merits, but Senator Dowdell already is working for its submission to the 1927 legis- lature, and he has much strong sup- port in the state. Among the influ- ential advocates of the unicameral system is former Gov. Charles N. Herreid, Republican. Many of the newspapers of the state favor pre- senting the plan to the voters for adoption or rejection. Even if the Dowdell proposal met with no more setbacks, however, it could not be put into effect until 1930. A constitutional amendment must be submitted to the voters by legislative joint resolution and ap- proved at a regular election before it becomes effective. The legislature meets again two years hence, and, the plan could not be. presented to the voters until 1928, RAILROAD MAY INSTALL BUS Great Northern Plans Auto Service Out of Fargo Meeting the extension of bus lines with its own weapons, the Great The Luther College ‘Quartet, w accompanied the Luther College Con- which will give concerts in the city auditorium here next Monday afternoon and evening for the benefit of the Juvenile Band, is an organization which won many merits for itself on its tour last summer.

Oakland, Calif. June 12.—Radio has endowed Helen Keller, famous blind and deaf woman, with renewed hope. ; She believes the new science may help her hear and speak more clearly. That hope and belief is spread to thousands of other partially deaf mutes who have been waiting for some instrument by which they may get into closer conimunication with the world. Ann Sullivan Macy, Mi Keller's teacher, brings them this hope. At her suggestion a test was con- ducted at the studio of station KGO here, by which Miss Keller was able to repeat her name as she felt it be- ing broadcast over the air from the San Francisco studio across the bay. The famous woman's voice was r- prising improvement on her previous attempts. Her enunciation, it was observed, was clearer than ever be- fore. This was accomplished through the arrangement of earphones by means of which Miss Keller was enabled to feel the vibrating diaphragms as they were actuated by incoming radio messages. Learns Differences She at once recognized the differ- ence between music and speech. Lat- er she was able to distinguish the Pronunciation of her name, after it had been explained to her once. Next the alphabet was repeated to her to see whether she could dis- tinguish the different letters. It was found that D, E, B, P and similar sounding letters felt much alike to er. But Miss Macy believes it would be possible for Miss Keller eventu- ally to learn to detect the differences in their vibrations, From San Francisco, the announe repeated the name, “Helen Keller, over the air three times. Miss Keller put her fingers to the diaphragms and tried to “hear” what the announcer was saying. At the first pronunci: tion of her name, her face bee tense. On the second and third repe- titions, she exclaimed, “Helen Keller, Helen Keller,” with ‘the announcer. New Way to Cure This showed that the pulsations ef the syllables of the words, “Helen Keller,” were remembered’ by her over a period of several minutes and were recognized again from a differ- ent voic Helen Keller does not want to ap- pear too optimistic, but she believ that this new way out of her dark- ness and silence may aid her in her terrific struggle to speak clearly. One of her first remarks after feel- ing a few words moye wa: “It will help me to speak. The vi- brations are flat, they lack contour—- Oh, if some elecirical gemus could only give them ‘contour!” While Miss Keller has been able to feel musical vibrations for some time, radio has enabled her to get the effect of several instruments playing together. ‘She seemed .to be i able to detect low tones from high tones, in this test, and she caught rhythmic pulsations as quickly as the observers, for with her face lighted she would beat the tempo of the com- position in perfect time with the mu- sie coming out of the ai: ELECTRIC COOKERY MEANS COOKING IN COMFORT EAGLE TAILORING .& HAT WORKS Cleaning ~ Pressing Repairing Remodeling Dyeing LADIES AND MEN’S CLOTHES Hats Cleaned and Reblocked 24 Hour Service on Mall Orders, We Call For and Deliver.
