NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 28, 1928, i:"mu | THOMPSON WANTS “CAL” 'HIT BY ENGINEERS Hoodershot Says “It Works” D s G Pittsburgh, Pa., Feb. 28 (P—Al- though his “fuelless” motor has been characterized as impractical and “not a motor at all, but a gen- erater,” Lester J. Hendershot, of West Elisabeth, Pa., today stood by his assertion that “my motor works.” The motor, described by the 29- vear-old inventor as deriving its power from the magnetic flelds of the earth, was said yesterday by F.| W. Hochstetter, of the Hochstetter Research Laboratories here to be a “generator and not a motor at all,” obtaining “its electricity from a con- cealed carbon pencil battery.” L. B, Sieg, dean of the college| «nd of the graduate school and pro- | fessor of physics at the University | of Pitgsburgh, said he did not be- lieve Hendershot's motor was prac- tical, but added that his knowledge | of the creation was limited to in- tormation gleaned from newspaper | accounts. i Show Models Hochstetter exhibited models of | what he sald were early phases of{ the Hendershot motor, declaring that he had negotiated with Hender- shot some time ago on “what ap- peared from newggaper reports to| have been the same thing he is now | trying to promote.” ‘When informed of the statements ot Steg and Hochstetter, Hendershot said he had used carbon pencil cells while experimenting in an effort to take electricity from the air, but that the present motor utilized “the magnetic fleld set up by the earth” and no other power. *7 didn’t bulld the motor that was dernonstrated at Detroit,” the inven- tor sald. ‘That was built by army men under orders from Major Lan- phier and under my direction. T didn't even so much as wind the motor—they bullt the motor—and it | works. That's my answer to all eritics—my meotor works.” Bieg also commented on the claim that the motor takes its power from the earth's magnetic fleld, saying there was little there to be utilized and even if the magnetic fleld were much stronger, it could not be used because an electric current must be used In conjunction with it. READ RERALD CLASSIFIED ADS Says People Want Coolidge to Run Third Term and That the Country Neods Him, Chicago, Feb, 28 W—Mlyor‘ Thompson, back from Washington conferences, today had launched an active campaign for the renomina- tion and election of President Cool- idge. “The people want him and the country needs him " the mayor said. | “When the people want anything' they should have it. That is my idea | of government. “A short review of President | Coolidge's administration proves he | made this country theanost prosper- ous in the world.” Despite reiteration from Wash- ington that the President does not | choose to become a candidate and that he does not look with favor upon efforts of friends to ‘“draft” him, Mayor Thompson at once be- gan cfforts to place the Chicago and Illinofs republican organizations | back of a ‘‘draft Coolidge” move- | ment. | He had prepared for presentation | today to the more than 8,000 mem- bers of the Cook county fepublican | organization a resolution instructing delegates to the national convention | at Kansas City “to vote to draft the services of Calvin Coolidge for second term by nominating him.” Mayor Thompson made it clear that he did not discuss politics with a tthe President when they dined to- gether last week, and that he was acting entirely on his own responsi- bility.

Captain Nick Gill came into his own and gave a fine demonstration of his prowess through the first three quar- ters and early part of the last ses- sion, and thea “Red” Compagnone saved the game with a pair of pretty field goals which nullified the fihal rally of the Capital City five, Four minutes went by before a point was scored, and then Andrews made a free toss good. Two min- utes later Kerelejza flipped a field goal. Hill and Parlee counted from the 15-foot strip and the latter sent Hartford ahead with a basket. Gill gave New Britain the edge and after Kearches had tied the acore the lo- cal captain added another basket to make it 7-6 as the quarter ended. Foul shots by Gill and Dolan were succeeded by Goffa's basket in the second period. Andrews was suc- cessful in two free attempts but Goffa once more found the hoop from afield. A Dolan basket made it 12-10 at the half. Compagnone began the second half with a free point, which Andrews du- plicated. Kley put in a basket, but Kearches suddenly went wild and tied the score with two fleld goals, then sent Hartford ahead with a pair of foul tosses.
