Ham- mer will be 67 next Christmas, Dr. Kouchakoff is 49 and the women are younger. Hammer explained he has leased a villa at Montreau, Switzerland, on the shores of Lake Leman, known also as Lake Geneva. A course of- preliminary laboratory experiments will precede the | start of the experiment itself. Hammer, Jong a student of dist and physiology, has no medical or s fic degree. Hammer sald he thought the actual test would get under way within a yéar. — e and assorted fruits were to be the diet With the ratio of cocoanut increasing until it should become the sole food. Changes have been made in the plan s a result of Dr, Kouchakoff's assocla- tion with the experiment, Hammer said. “Dr. Kouchakoff has convinced me the Swiss lake region, in the matter of air and sunshine, is to be preferred to the seashore, instead of swimming, the application of ultra-violet rays to the body while face downward on a log, or artificial bolster, will serve the same purpose. Dr. Kouchakoff thinks, as I do. that uncooked vegetables and fruits will be the best food.

The other table contains 7,136 visible and 66 in- visible pleces, The stars of the flag are of fvory. (Copyright, 1930, by North American News- T Alliance.)

Cars that climb hills swiftly and quietly, with easy gear shifts, a silent intermediate gear, and that pull away quickly in traffic, are in style.

The newest things, such as front-wheel drive and _silent-change | gearshifts, are described by some tech- nical men as better developed in the | American exhibits, but there are many _ samples of such things in the French cars. It is in roadability that the French | makers claim superiority. Several mod- els hug the ground more than ever.
