No Facial ‘Key Signs’ Can Betray One’s I. Q. By. ROBERT GEIGER AP Feature Service Writer penVer—In seeking intelligence, do not be misled by a pretty face. Nine out of ten persons are, says pr. T. R. Garth, author of many books on race psychology, who is con- yinced after @ four year study that a rson’s face does not refliect his intelligence and character. — pr. Garth made dozens of plaster casts of students at Denver university, where he ig professor of psychology. some were . football players, some were beauty queens, others were high in scholarship. He was hunting for facial char- acteristics that definitely give a hint of a person’s brain power. After the masks were made the students were given intelligence tests. No ‘Key Signs’ “The tests,” he asserts, “indicate there are no facial ‘key signs’ which point infallibly to a definite degree of intelligence or the lack of it. “Tt 1s commonly supposed that a high forehead and certain character- istics of the nose, mouth and chin de- note intelligence. So far as we can| * determine a person with a low fore- head and coarse features may be just as intelligent as the person ‘re- fined’ features. ee “We have shown the casts to doz- ons. ot “ragoed and none of them pi ie masks of the mi ° telligent subjects. oe Beware Snap Judgment “Usually men were influenced by the beauty of the mask and picked the most beautiful women as the most intelligent. Women also were influenced by masculine beauty. But beauty does not have any connec- tion with intelligence, our tests in- dicated.” Artists, says Dr. Garth, like have selected the most beautiful Rte mens as the most intelligent. “And therefore my warning is that ® person should hesitate to make a snap judgment about a fellow human being, based entirely upon appear- ces.” ane BEE England races to arm itself for defense Weatherford, Okla., July 31—(?)}— Weatherford’s volunteer firemen had an exciting week even though they didn’t fight any flames. First, a false alarm sent them hunt- ing over town for a blaze. Then they made a run to the other side of town, only to incur the wrath of a citizen who saw a crowd of fire- followers storm after the firemen over his fresh flower beds and shrub- bery just because an over-nervous neighbor had misjudged his control over a trash fire. The third time the alarm sounded there really was a fire—a bird’s nest, built too close to an electric wire.

One of those voices was that of Lisa Sergio, Italian radio announcer who arrived in this country last week to study American broadcasting at Radio City. Her voice is particu- larly well known to American short wave dialers who tune across ie waters for European programs. the past four years she has been in charge of English and French short wave broadcasts of EIAR, the Italian Broadcasting Co. Unlike this country, where a fem- inine voice is a rarity in the announc- ing ranks, most radio announcers and commentators in Italy are women. Miss Sergio tells us that this is due to the low, pleasing qualities of fe- male voices which the Italians find ideal for radio work. Male announc- ers are used for sports broadcasts and public events, but in the studio the female reigns supreme . War News.

Stations are lo- cated in the 10 principal cities, each of which has two stations, one of much power and the other a low- watter, giving the Italian dialer s choice of two programs.

Shuey, chief of the Cincinnati bureau of general foods and sanitation, esti- mates 20 per cent of the 400,000 rats that populated Cincinnati drowned during the record January flood. “Ordinarily, in floods, the - rats escape to higher ground by following sewers,” he said, “but last winter as the water rose, heavy rains had filled the sewers to cut off retreat. “Waste collectors tell me they have not seen a rat on two city dumps since the high water. They used to see sev- eral hundred a day. They have found hundreds of dead rats where they were trapped by rising water.” Short Engagements . ° May Bring Divorces Austin, Tex.
