tadio Theory Formulated
DX Reception on Short Waves Due to Bending
(Science Service)
Schemately, N. Y., Feb. 25—Bringing of the radio waves in the upper atmosphere, in somewhat the same way as a beam of light is reflected when crossing the ionosphere, it is responsible for many of the curiosity and apparently contradictory effects observed in radio transmission with short waves, according to William G. Baker and Chester W. Baker, who discovered the General Electric Company here.
When these waves are bent in this way it is possible for a station to be heard by a very distant receiving set when nearer sets cannot detect the
These peculiarities of the short wave transmission have been brought to light in the last two years by the change of many stations to the short wave transmitters, and because any long distance short wave transmission was put down as an unexplainable frank, but due to the increasing number of these exceptions radio expers were forced to abstain from the notions of short wave transmission.
These effects, which vary in amount and distance according to the wave length and power of the transmitting station, are explained by the investigation below. A layer is built up in the atmosphere of a layer of free electrons, of which the atoms of matter are supposed to be made. Nearby receiving sets hear the direct waves from the transmitting soils' surface, and sets pick up the reflected waves.
Former Student Given New Position in Chicago
A possible solution to "fading" of a signal is that when the sky wave comes back to earth it comes in contact with the direct wave and causes a variation in the strength of the signal.
Floyd McComb, A. B. 25, left Tuesday for Chicago to take up work in the foreign advertising field for the Capper farm publications. He had been a directive need for his Population Daily Capital since his graduation last summer.
Prof. F. M. Dawson of the department of hydraulics will give an illustrated lecture at the meeting of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers tonight. The meeting will be held in room 210 of Marvin hall. An important business session will be held after the lecture.

Moving Picture Heads Answer Kansan's Denunciation
White Angers Producers
United Press
Hollywood, Cal., Feb. 24—William Allen White's wholesale condemnation of the motion-picture industry has inspired a cloud of wrath from the
The "sage of Emporia" broadcast his criticism of the cinema in a recent contribution to a national magazine. He asserted the movies were "made for morons," and "controlled by the business sense."
"The world of moving pictures has few artists, no producers, no creative genius comparable to the contemporary leaders of literature, of the most of the famous authors in America or in Europe." White declared.
New Members Are Elected
The controlling heads of movie-making, including Jessie Lasky, Joseph M. Schenck, Cecil DeMellier, and John McCormick, are indignant at White's decision to cancel the Press symposium today made vigorous resuites to the Kansan's broadside.
New members were elected at a meeting of Pt Lambia Theta, women's educational organization, Wednesday evening. Plans were also discussed for giving an organization banquet soon. The names of the new members have not as yet been officially announced.
"The motion picture has nothing to fear from mere word jugglers such as Mr. White, who striving to be a sweeping and general insult to that very large section of the American public which attains movies," declared Deane.
John McCormick, head of First National productions, claims that "Mr. White is absolutely inconsistent for a man of otherwise same observation."
Lacky agreed with White that "motion pictures are made to reach as wide an audience as possible." "But the same is true of newspapers, including Mr. White's 'Emperia Gazette' asserted the producer.
