Few Headlights Are Legal
University of Ohio Engineers Report on Lights
Columbus, O., Feb. 9- When are legal lights legal? "Sometimes" would seem to be the verdict of electrical engineers at Ohio State University who are conducting a series of tests with various types of automobile headlights and lenses for the state highway department.
"No headlight is legal unless it is properly adjusted as to power of bulbs as well as to tilt of the lamp," declared Prof. Francis C. Caldwell, "Very few headlights in use on the roads at present conform to both adjustments," in his opinion, "To prevent glare," Doctor Carlwell explained, "not more than 800 candle power where it will strike the eyes of drivers." The road is driven with But to give sufficient driving power there must be at least 4800 candle power at the road level, 200 feet ahead.
Existing specifications are the result of joint investigation by members of the Illuminating Engineering Society, the Traffic Officers' Association and the Association of Automotive Engineers, all national organizations.

Calory Theory Not Joke,
K. U. Teacher Declares
Kansas City, Mo. Feb. 9: "Calories seem to be a good thing we talk about the selection of our food, but they are good sense when applied to stock feeding on the farm," said Miss Sybil Woodruff, assistant professor of psychology at University of Kansas, speaking last night over the radio station WDAF.
"You have probably often heard the argument that our grandfathers lived without calories, so why should not we. But you must remember that we are not eating the kind of food our grandparents ate in the same kind of a wagon. Our grandfathers did not throw away the outer coating of corn and wheat; candy and soda waters were not mainstays. Don't expect to buy vitamine from the milk, dirt, fruit that come in the milk, vegetable and vegetables."
