P"ums PR"VE "‘MT o First Inverted, Then Converted EINSTEIN IS RIGHT Tests-at Least Sulicenily Satis- Tactory to Be Abandoned San Jose, Cal, April 12,~Dr, Al- bert Elnstein's theory of relativity has been so satisfactorlly proven by ex- periments made by the Lick observa- tory which photographed the eclipse of the sun in Australia last year, that no further experiments would be made, Dr. W, W, Campbell, director of the obscrvatory, announced last night, Photographs of stars made at night on the island of Tahiti three months before the eclipse and pictures of the same stars, taken in conjunction with the photographing of the eclipse at Wallal on the northwest coast of Aus- tralla on September 21, 1922, show a bending of the stars’ rays, Dr. Camp- bell sald, so close to the amount pre- scribed by the Elnstein formula as “the most ardent proponents of Ein- stein's theory could hope for.” The average deflection on three sets of plates measured the observatory director sald, was one and seventy- five hundredths of a second of an arc. The measurements covered a minimum. of 62 and a maximum of 84 star images on each pair of photo- graphic plates. “Two photographs of the eclipsed sun and its immediate surroundings were obtained in Australia with each of two specially designed and con- structed cameras with lenses having apertures five inches in diameter and focal lengths of 16 feet,”” Dr, Camp- bell sald in explaining the experi- ment. “The four sensitive plates, each 17 inches square, recorded the images of several scores of stars in the group surrounding the sun, though in reality these stars were many million times as far away from us as the sun. The same cameras were used three months earlier on the island of Tahiti to photograph the same stars when they were in the night sky and without the sun in their midst. Prof. Einstein's theory, according to Dr. Campbell and other western sclentists, is, however, much more complex than a mere hypothesis that light is bent in passing large celes- tial bodies. The theory, in its larger proportions involves a radical change in attitude toward the nature of the universe—at least by scientists. One of the elements of the theory is that light is a substance and -because of that is attracted by gravity. Some of the interpreters of the theory also maintain that by virtue of the same quality that mdkes it subject to the pull of. gravity, it has 1 185 MAIN | i Cantilever | | This trim Oxford with Cuban heel comes in black kid, brown kid and white fabric. : \ As far as the man in the street I concerned, Dy, Campbell does not ex- | poect his confirmation of the Elnstein theory to make any appreciable dif- ference.
