NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 11, 193 MARCONI QUTLINES RADIO WAVE IDEA Sounds Travel Millions of Miles Beyond Atmospheric Layer Trento Italy, Sept. 11 (B — The Marchese Guglielmo Marconi, in- ventor of wireless telegraphy, in the inaugural address at the second meeting of the Italian Society for Advancement: of Science today, ex- _pressed belief that radio waves may travel long distances, even millions of miles beyond the earth's atmos- pheric alyer. He said that he did not see any reason why, as some scientists main- tain, waves produced on the earth should not travel such a distance, since light and heat waves reach us from the sun, penetrating the atmos- pheric layer. He referred to the observations of such scientists as Stormer and Peder- seén, and commented that the former electrified particles derived from the sun and under the magnetic influence of the earth acted as a reflector of electric waves from the earth after they had passed the so-called heavi- side and Kenelly layer. Later in his address he said that the waves were reflected by bands of fons outside the magnetic field of the earth, sometimes at a distance from the earth of 25,000,000 miles—the observations of Hals indicating dis- tances up to 48,000,000 miles. “The existence of various reflecting layers,” he said, “is the best hypo- thesis’on which to base an explana- ion of long distance wave transmis- slon which overcomes the curve of the earth. Layers capable of re- flecting electric waves exist at heights varying with the hour of the day and the season of the year. These layers also are influenced by the effects of light, by electric and magnetic activity of the sun, and by other causes yet unknown, Influences Variations “The influence of these layers on the propagation of electric waves explains the variations observed in the waves' intensity and traveling distance accordingly as they travel through the illuminated or dark zones. This again would point to the capital importance of the season and of the hour for determining what waves are most suited to radio trans- missions, “Radio engineers should therefore keep in touch with the work of me- teorologists and astronomers, but it ! is equally useful for the latter to keep in touch with the former, ow- ing to the powerful means which modern developments have placed at the disposal of radio stations.” The Marchese Marconi said that because of these reflecting layers the angle of transmission in respect to the surface of tho earth is of great importance. He hinted at the possi- bility of electric exploration of space. Speaking of the new under-ten- meters, short wave radio stations operating between Italy and Sardinia he said that these waves would seem to be reflected and contained in space between the surface of the earth and a layer much lower than the heaviside layer. while other ob- servations made with short waves above ten meters would seem to show that these waves are ot con- fined to a limited space near the earth. Analyzes Progress The inVentor analyzed the progress in radio communication obtained by | means of short waves and the beam system, and he pointed out that qual- ities of short waves have been studied and demonstrated by him since 1915. Owing to the usefulness of these waves, he said, powerful organizations, owning more than 50 per cent of the world's cables, had been obliged to come to terms with the Marconi company. The Marchese Marconi said that ‘wireless echoes were among the most fascinating of phenomena, capable of disclosing the most useful facts He divided echoes into classes ac- cording as they indicate that electric waves have covered distances hefore returning to us in the form of echoes shorter or longer than the circum- ference of the earth. and Mrs. Anthony T.

W. Alling the | nomination for judge of probate and | were his guests at a dinner follow- ing his brief acceptance speech. The entire delegation of four New Britain representatives and four from Berlin voted for Judge Alling. He was called to the convention room and formally notified of the fact by George P. Spear, chairman of the republican probate conven- tions for the past quarter of a cen- tury, after which he said: “It was reported some time ago that I had a shock and that my health was endangered. That is un- true. The true fact fs that T had only a slight cerebral hemorrhage as the result of a fall, and now T have recovered completely. And T want/to say to you that T am in ex- cellent health and if T had any doubt about my health I would not accept this nomination. But I do accept, and gratefully.” Spear Praises Alling In his notification speech, Chair- man Spear spoke words of praise on the fitness of Judge Alling to fill the position. Fe commented on the nominee’s judicial experience and | mentioned ~ characteristics of the | candidate which, in his expressed opinion, ideally fit him for the of- | fice of judge of probate. Mr. Spear also praised Judge Bernard F. Gaff- ney, democratic incumbent for whom he had cast a vote at nearly a dozen biennial conventions. Delegates individually expressed their congratulations to Judge Alling and assured him of their willingness to cooperate with him in his cam- | paign against Judge W. F. Mangan, the democratic nominee.

Based on Ben Ames Williams' | thrilling story that was widely read in a magazine of extensive circula- tion, it was ably adapted for the screen by George Manker Watters and Marion Orth with dialog by Watters and Idwin Burke. The play details the adventures of a beautiful girl and a romantic mind- ed newspaperman who fall in love, following @ meeting of unusual cir- cur:stance and who find themselves surrounded by menacing influences from which there seems to be no escape. Dorothy Mackaill, one of the most beautiful girls of the screen, whos: | talents are familiar to all lovers of all talking pictures, portrays th:| leading feminine role and Milton Sills, as the owner of a night club, appears as the menace while Ken- neth MacKenna enacts the role of the lover and Sharon Lynn, whose | success in recent productions has added much to her popularity, plays | an equally important part. The five acts of vaudeville pre- sented in conjunction with “Man | Trouble,” is headed by Charles How- | ard in “Oh Butler.” Charles How- | ard is known throughout the vaude- ville stage for his service in fun, song and dance. With him are beautiful Berna Doyle, Wills Claire and Hazel Klinger. Then comes Sydney Page and Peggy in “Spread- ing Sunshine.” For an artistic nov- | clty you will be delighted with Frank Viola and Co.

The secretary is in love with her eni- ployer, while a reporter is in love with his wife, but his wife in love with another man. This com- plicated situation adjusts itself when finally the wife runs off with her lover, the secretary b ks her en- gagement to the reporter, and the husband realizes at last that he loves d that she loves him. This is not the ordinary stilted story of the abused wife whose husband prefers the pretty secretary to her. In this case, it is the wife who is the flirt.
