Engineering Foundation Director Says Research Is Constantly Supplanting Old Data New hility cause Haven, July of of waste 2 (P —Inacessi- knowledge is the greatest e most and one of t deplos of human i said Dr. Alfred D. Flynn of New York rector of the engineering foundation said today in an address befora the summer school engineer- ing teachers of Yale. The pace of modern life in re- lation to the and profe is so rapid that the coridinat practice and research is becoming vital to progress in the engineering field,” Dr. Flynn said “The problem of putting existing knowledge ly into the hand of the man on the job is one that must be solved by a wider distribution of scientific in- quici- | formation. So comprehensive is the progress of civil engineering that engineers of single great enterprises have to apply directly or indirectly a large portion of human knowl- edge.” Dr. Flynn continued, “Re-| search is constantly supplanting old | data found to be incorrect or no longer sufficiently precise. Inaccurate data and Wrong concep- tions of the natures of substances and their performances u vari- ous conditions of stress, motion, temperature and moisture lead to faulty practice eventuating in eco- nomic waste, failure and even dis- asters.” Romaine Callender Dies; Widely Known Actor Philadelphia, July 2 (#—Romaine Callender, 71, formerly a widely known actor, died yesterday at his home here.
