Sufficient snow to make footing secure for forecast for Chicago while rising temperature to from 10 to 25 degrees above zero was predicted. | The absence of snow here was in contrast to the intense cold and hieavy snow that paralyzed traffic in parts of Michigan, Minnesota, and Wisconsin.

It appeared certain today that de- fense counsel would appeal to the state's highest court from the de- visions of Superior Court Judge Wil- tord D. Gray, denying Knowlton's petition for a new trial.

(Spectal to the Herald) Southington, Jan. 24—Richard Elliott, Jr, son of Mr. and Mrs. Richard Elliott of North Main street, is in 8t. Francis' hospital, Hartford, suffering from a broken hip bone and & possible fractured skull fol- lowing an accident yesterday in | which he was struck by an automo- | bile operated by George C. Sparmer of 194 North street, New Britain. The boy was on his way to school when the accident occurred. Spar- mer's car skidded and struck the boy, knocking him to the roadway, and besides fracturing the hip, in- flicted severe cuts about his head. Sparmer's car left the road and went down a slight embankment without injury to the driver. Dr. William T. Nagle was called to attend the boy and ordered his removal to the hospital. Policeman Edward Geary and Arthur Ober- empt investigated the accident and placed Sparmer under arrest on & technical charge of reckless driv- ing. He secured his freedom by posting a bond of $1,000.

The children were with him. No attempt was made to interfere with the embarkation of the trio. The children appeared to be interest- ed in their surroundings and chat- tered gaily with their father, Mr. Woodward declined to discuss the case except to ridicule the idea that he could kidnap his own chil- dren.

All he had was an affidavit made by his mother stating his age at the time of his enlistment in the Canadian army. The case came to the attention of immigration authorities when truant ofticers here sought out his eldest daughter, Margaret, 15, who had left school intending to marry.

Admitt Women ‘ | Lodon, Jan. 24 M—Women have | invaded the strangers’ dining room, traditional masculine stronghold in the house of commons. After a four year battle waged by Miss Ellen Wilkinson, M. P., the kitchern committee has succumbed to her fiery protests and hereafter | women may dine in the hitherto, “privileged” precincts. To celebrate her victory, and no doubt to put the regulation into practice before the committee could change its mind, Miss Wilkinson en- tertained a party of four women journalists and Ramsay MacDon- | ald’s private secretary, Miss Rosen- berg, at dinner on the very first night the ban was lifted. The menu was as revolutionary | as the “all women's” dinner was unprecedented. It was vegetarian, and non-alcoholic, and was the first | of its kind served in the house. The menu foll Vegetable eonsomme or split pea soup Poached egg Washington Rizotto Milanaise (seasoned rice with mushrooms) Roast potatoes Souffle of spinach Fresh pears with ice cream French cakes Clder cup The spinach souffle was a sentl- mental gesture to the memory ot the late 8ir James Agg-Gardner, | chairman of the kitchen committes, and Miss Wilkinson's sternest oppo- nent in her efforts at breakjng down | the precedent of the strangers’ din- ing room.

Shull of the University of Michigan. He has found out how, more than a generation in advance, to determine at will the sex of a common species of aphid, or plant louse. He has learned that if a certain kind of mother aphid has wings, her children will be daughters, while if she has no wings, her progeny will be principally sons, He discovered how to control the production of wings. Beside this simplified statement lies an accomplishment in untang- ling a maze more complicated than any human life history. For aphids lay eggs, but only occasional gener- ations of aphid eggs need fertiliza- tion by males. More commonly the eggs go right along hatching with- out any sort of cooperation by mate parents. It was in one of these egg differences that Professor Shull found a way to the solution of wings and sex contrdl, This control is by means of light and temperature. Professor Shull begins with th: grandmothers of the generation to be controlled. The control works whenever a gen- eration whose eggs require fertil- ization comes along. Raising thesc grandmothers in alternating light and darkness and in moderate or low temperatures, is pretty certain to produce winged daughters and from them female grandchildren, Rearing the grandmothers in con- tinuous light, cr at a high tempera- ture, practically assures male grand- children, if sexual forms occur in that generation. What causes the sexual genera- tions, Professor Shull says, is not thoroughly known, “Various strains of aphids,” he says, “respond differently to light and temperature, and it is likely that some do not respond at all. There is no reason to think that any insects other than aphids be- have in this manner, “The chief human interest in the discovery, so far as it relates to wing-production, lies in the possiblc rclief it may afford to pest-ridden crop plants. Apple trees, for ex- ample, are injured by certain wing- lcss aphids in the spring, but when the winged forms appear the latter fly away to live on weeds. The sooner the winged females are pro- duced, the better it is for the or- chardist, and artificial hastening of | wing production would be advan-| tageous, | “So far as sex determination IAI concerned, the control has no prac- tical human application. Man has no wings, and only one type of re-| production, and his control of his own sex is as far beyond his reach as it has always been.” PLAINVILLE NEWS (Continued from Page Seven) 1 i defeated by the corresponding teams from the Wallace Barnes Co. last night at the Recreation bowling al- leys.
