14 HOWARD WILL HAVE! 'BUDGET OF MILLION ;Funds for Gperahon Will Ex- ¢ ceed Those of Any Other Colored Institution. i Howard University probably will Poerate next vear on a budget of hearly a million dollars. the largest of any institution in the world for training colored youth, Dr. Emmet J Ecott, treasurer, reported at the an- hual meeting of the trustees yester- gay afternoon. 3 Dr. Scott made this estimate on the Supposition that $130.000 for equip- ment of the new medical school is bbtained. This, in_addition to ‘a 3$591.000 Government and $265.000 out of the general funds, Will make a grand total of $856,000. ! Dr. J. Stanley Durkee, president, feported during the vear an unusuai awakening of the student body to pigher schlarship.” The attendance during the past vear, he said, was 2.064, with students from 47 States #nd from 11 foreign countries. * These trustees were re-elected for three years: Charles I. Corby, Wash- ington: Dr. Albert Bushnell Hart, Boston, and Bishop John Hurst, Bal- timore. These new Victor B. D trustees were elected ‘ber, C. H. Pope, Dr. C Sumner Worniley and John R.

There were Brief addresses by Dr. Charles R Brown, dean of Yale Divinity School and president of the trustees, and other members of the board, by Dr. Durkee and by Dr. Scott The building to be constructed in renaissance style, will cover the larg- est area of any of the university structures. There will be two floors, the first for athletic and drill pur- poses and the second to house the department of public health and hy- Sine. The basement will contain a swimming pool. The complete building, with the athletic field, which will adjoin it, is to cost $197,500. The field will be €50 feet long and with the effect of a bowl. There will be seats for 10,- 000 and a maximum space capacity appropriation | ‘THE "EVENING Solar Eclipse Photos Force Science Into New Line of Study of Coronium Mysterious Gas May Be Known Element, Recent Re- searches Indicate—Bureau of Standards Announces Novel Tkeory Ajfter Spectrum Tests Prove Fruitless. Recent researches promise to clear up one of the greatest mysteries of cosmic nature—the supposedly un- known element coronium—it was re- vealed at the Bureau of Standards yesterday. This is presumably a gas whmh is found in considerable quantities in the corona of the sun, or the at- mospheric blanket surrounding that planet which is visible only at times of total eclipse and which is claimed to be one of the grandest sights in nature. In the spectrograph this corona shows green lines so arranged that they can be identified with none of the known elements in the possible list of 92 which starts with hydrogen and ends with uranfum. As a result it was set down as a new element, and the great practical and scientific importance of the discovery of helium in the sun and its identification later on earth inspired physicists and chemists the world over to efforts to duplicate this discovery in the case of coronium. At the time of the total eclipse last Winter coronium was one of the prin- cipal objects of study. Photographs of the corona taken at that time have been studied carefully, but have re- vealed nothing which might serve as a clue to identifying the mysterious element on earth Consequently, it was stated at the spectrograph laboratory of the Bureau of Standards, physicists are turning to the conclusion which some had suspected before—that coronium is not a_new element at all but some one of the known elements, some of whose electrons under unknown con- ditions existing in the outer atmos- phere of the sun have been stripped off. As a result the spectrum is en tirely different from that of the ele- ment as it is known on earth. The reasons for this conclusion are as follows: 1. Coronium, whatever its nature, must be very light, since it remains in the outer atmosphere of the sun. 2. There are four or five gaps in the periodic table of the elements, but the first of these are in-the forties—conse- quently they mus: be comparatively heavy. 3. The spectra of elements with one or more electrous removed show little tra. It is probable that®he spectrum of any one element will continue to change until every electron is removed. Consequently, instead of 92 possible elemental spectra the possibilities are the sum of all the numbers between 1 and 92. 4. The mystery of coronium probably will be solved, then, only by pro- gressive work in the physical laborato- ries of the world in knocking off elec- tron after electron from different ele: ments. This is extremely slow and difficult work. There is some ground for the theory, however, that coronium is one of the states of calcium, Dr. Willlam F. Meg- gers of the Bureau of Standards said. Calcium is known to exist in consider- able quantities in the atmosphere of the sun. Considerable progress al- ready has been made at the California Institute of Technology in tripping the calelum atom and obtaining the char- acteristic spectra of each stage. PLANS HOSPITAL QUTING. Equality-Walter Reed Post Needs Cars for Trip. The Equality-Walter Reed Post, No. 284, Veterans of Forelgn Wars, will hold its annual automobile outing for the Mount Alto and Walter Reed Hospital patients June 14 at 2 p.m. Comdr. Charles Kohen of the Vin cent B, Costello Post, No. 15, as chair- man of this outing, has written to all business organizations soliciting their assistance in the use of their card. “To make it a success, he says, it will be necessary to obtain the use of 200 cars to accommodate these patients. Those willing to lend their cars are asked to communicate with Mr. Kohen, 519 Fourteenth street. Detailed in Air Service. Capt. Edward F.

LAW SCHOOL Presentation in Honor of Dean to Be Made by Senior Class Saturday Night. A portrait of Dean George E. Hamll- | ton will be presented to the George- | town University Law School by the senior ‘class at the class-day exercises Saturday night, the opening event of commencement week. Approximately 300 senlors who receive their diplomas next Monday will participate in the exercises. In point of service Mr. Hamilton is one of the oldest law school deans in the United States. Three years ago. upon the celebration «of the golden jubilee of his graduation from Georgetown, the university bestowed on Dean Hamilton its highest legal degree. Mr. Hamliiton joined the law school faculty shortly after his gradu ation and has been actively interested in Georgetown ever since. Daniel Francis McKenna will make the presentation address on behalf of the senjors. - The portrait will be hung beside those of the late Chief Justice Constantine J, Smyth of the District Court of Appeals and the late Asso- clate Justice Ashley M. Gould of the District Supreme Court, former mem- bers of the faculty, presented by seniors of other years. Owing to the large size of the law school it will hold its class-day exer. cises independently of the college stu dents. though both events will oc cur the same evening. Eugene Mc- Laughlin, president of the law seniors will preside. The class historian is Irving Blener of Virginla; the class prophet. Joseph A. Owens of Connecti- cut. Albert D. Cannon, popular law school tenor, will give a program, ac companied by Francis P. Lyman. The Georgetown Preparatory School, at Garrett Park, Md., will hold its commencement exercises Thursday afternoon when Daniel W. O'Dono- ghue, president of the District Bar Association, will make the address to the graduates.
