SHADOW: MEET-MR. GLUESING
William A. Gluesing shakes hands with his own shadow in the General Electric "House of Magic" science show. A phosphorescent screen enables him to walk off the stage and leave his shadow behind, fold his shadow up in a box, or to do any of the many things you may have wished you could do with your shadow.
Blind New York Student Returns To Classroom After Two Years
Niagara Falls, N.Y.—(UP)—Two years ago last June, Anthony Heaney left Niagara university to spend the summer vacation at his home in Geneva, N.Y.
He planned to return to the campus the following September to begin his sophomore year. Instead, he embarked on one of the hardest and most heartbreaking fights of a young person's life. He began a losing battle to save his eyesight.
This fall, 21-year-old Tony finally was back at Niagara as a sophomore. With him is his constant companion, a seeing-eye dog named Boots.
Things are quite different from Tony's freshman year. Instead of pen and notebook, he carries a braille stylus to class. His books are put on records for him by the American Foundation for the Blind in New York.
His ambitions are unchanged. He is still working toward a bachelor of science degree in social science. He still plays his trombone and writes for the college paper, and
Although Tony lost the use of his left eye after an operation in 1944, he did not become completely blind until December, 1846, when four operations in Rochester proved unsuccessful. At first, he says, it was hard to take.
Slowly his confidence began to return. He began taking long walks along Geneva's tree-shaded streets
The next four months were the worst of his life. All hope for his sight was gone and he refused to leave his home or mix with friends,
he still wants to become a news paperman.

Magic House Here Dec 10
General Electric's "House of Magic," a science show, will be presented by Mr. William A. Gluesing, from the General Electric research laboratory, at 4 and 8 p.m. Friday, Dec. 10 in Hoch auditorium.
WILLIAM A. GLUESING
Among the most impressive features of the show is sending sound across the stage on a light beam. A record is played; and the music is sent across the stage to a loud speaker on a narrow beam of light. The music may be stopped by breaking the beam of light.
A man shaking hands with his shadow, visible sound and audible light, an electric train which obeys voice commands, paper which explodes, and producing lighting with a match are some of the other demonstrations that will be presented.
The "House of Magic" show has been presented before more than 13 million persons in the past 15 years. It has been presented at every major exposition since Chicago's Century of Progress.
Refresher In Obstetrics
A three-day course in obstetrics and gynecology Dec. 6 to 8 will be the third refresher offering of the year at the University of Kansas Medical center in Kansas City, H. G. Ingham, K.U. medical extension director, announced today.
Guest lecturers will be Dr. John H. Moore, Grand Forks, N. Dak; Dr. Lucien R. Pyle, Topeka; Dr. Lawrence M. Randall, Rochester, Minn.; and Dr. Ray A. West, Wichita.
Mr. Ingham said one California physician already had enrolled. Regi- itations have also been received from Oklahoma and Arkansas as well as Kansas and Missouri. Fifty physicians attended a similar course last year.
Instructors from the K.U. medical faculty will be Drs. L. A. Calkins, Kenneth E. Cox, H. M. Floersch, H. L. Gainey, Buford G. Hamilton, and Robert L. Newman, all of Kansas City; and Dr. Raymond A. Schwegler, Jr., Lawrence.
Odanah. Wis—(UP)—Wilfred L.
Sharlow took the long way home and
got delayed when he borrowed his
employer's automobile to go after his
laundry.
The Man Was Carried Away
The 40-year-old farmhand was found more than a month later in Klamath Falls, Ore., with the car. His employer, farmer Chris Olsen, said Sharlow told him he was going only to Odanah to pick up his laundry.

"HOUSE OF MAGIC" SUN MOTOR
THE world's first "sun motor" of its size and kind is demonstrated in the General Electric "House of Magic" science show by W. A. Gluesing. This is one of many demonstrations in the science show which consists of interesting and unusual new developments of the General Electric Research Laboratory in Schenectady, N. Y. The painted gear at the left is driven by a motor which runs on electric energy converted from light. The power plant which makes electricity from light is the bank of photo voltaic cells at the right.
How a rapidly spinning gear can be "stopped" while in full motion is one of the many fascinating demonstrations in the General Electric "House of Magic" science show. Revolving 900 times a minute it becomes only an indistinct blur, making it impossible for engineers to study its action while operating at full speed.
Under the stroboscopic light, however, the rapidly spinning "gear" appears to stand still, allowing engineers to study its action so they can design safer and better-running machines.
Her 'Begf' Is Well-Founded
Salem, N. H.—(UP) The town's one-man police force should be expanded, Mrs. Anne M. Noyes argued at a board of trade meeting. The next day, Mrs. Noyes, who operates a meat market, had evidence to support her argument. Her butcher shop had been broken into and looted of cash and food.
The Murphys Go To Harvard
