Dust Elimination
Leads Way to More
Modern Wood Plastics
Seattle, Wash. (AGP)—A Uni
versity of Washington professor's
dust-elimination invention literal
ly has snatched a valuable wood
by-product out of thin air.
Professor Frederick K. Kirsten,
school of aeronautical enginering,
has disclosed how his application
of the principle of centrifugal force
to dust-laden air has resulted in a
process by which fine wood dust—
“wood flour”—can be reclaimed
for use in plastics.
The machine takes dust out of
the air by setting it in whirling-
motion at terrific speed. The dust
is thrown out by centrifugal force
while the clean air is taken off
at the center.
He said wood flour sells for about
$35 a ton.
Smaller units soon will be in
production, he said, for use as
dust filters on automobile carbu
retors.

LOUPOT’S
The Watchdog Of
The Aggies
By Murry Evans
Pity the poor fellow with the
“tin” ear—don’t abuse him. “There
are those who simply cannot car
ry a tune in a Ducket, who have
no sense of pitch or melody what
ever. Much like those who are
color-blind, they see no visible
difference in tone shades. And to
the amazement of others this type
is usually willing and ready to
burst into song with choirs and
groups, and still be totally unaware
that his is out of harmony with
the others and is spoiling the ef
forts of all concerned.
But there are also “tin-eared”
musicians, men who can play every
written note before them perfect
ly, but purely in a mechanical
manner. They find it impossible
to improvise, (jam,” to you) to
know when they are in or out of
chord, or to recognize good or bad
harmony. Such a musician usual
ly finds it difficult to tune his
instrument before playing, and us
ually depends on a “better ear”
in the band to decide when his
hox*n is “right.” Peculiarly enough,
such men usually have a well-de
veloped sense of rhythm.

Harry James’ band, after its
highly successful recording of
“You Made Me Love You,” has
just waxed another old favorite
which bids fair to be just as popu
lar, “Meloncholy Baby,” James car
ries 18 men and a vocalist on his
payroll, which accounts for the
fullness and deep background al
ways noticeable on his records and
broadcasts. On “Meloncholy Baby”
Harry gives out with another able
solo pexTormance, backed by a
clean-cut, restful string ensemble
and a fine trombone section.

Eddie Duchin, while playing at
the Waldorf-Astoria, overheard a
patron complain of a headache, eo
Eddie obligingly offered him some
advice to relieve it. The fellow,
obviously skeptical, looked up the
house doctor and was amazed
when he gave the same pre
scription, verbatim, that Eddie
had given him. What the man
with the headache didn’t know was
that Duchin studied at the Massa
chusetts College of Pharmacy and
still prides himself on being able
to fill prescriptions.
Dr. James A. Ross, Professor of
economics at Syracuse university,
has been granted a year’s leave
of absence to serve in the office
of price administration in Washing

LOUPOT’S
An Aggie
Tradition
many, the storm troopers took over
the city government in order to
establish the “new order.” Pastor
Hall was unable to comprehend
the aims of the government. Fin
ally matters became so acute that
he was placed in a concentration
camp. The story of his fight
against Nazism is told in the pic
ture at Guion Hall Saturday eve
ning at 6:45 and 8:30. Wilfrid Law-
son is Pastor Hall and Nava Pil-
beam is his daughter, Christine.
Asbury college operates a mat
and tread industry in which 25
students are employed.
Armed Forces Need
Birth Certificates
The importance of birth certifi
cates for all men of military age
was stressed by Captain W. H.
Culberson of the Flying Cadet
Procurement team here at A. &
M.
Captain Culberson stated that
men would need birth certificates
as they enlisted or were called for
service in any branch of the arm
ed forces and that it was impera
tive that every man have one
close at hand.
