Don Cros?er, the owner of the
Garage of Murray, was a visitor in
Omaiia last Monday where he went

line which he is selling.
The Murray State bank was closed
during the day on the Fourth and
tome of the other houses during the
afternoon, they remaining open for
the morning. that all might be fed.
The Murray Transfer company has
been exceedingly busy with their
work as they haul corn for the shell
crs during the day and stock at night,
which makes long days and keeps the
boys from growing old.
Mrs. Ella Barker, manager of the
Murray Telephone exchange was
spending last Sunday at the home of
her mother at Avoca and was also
accompanied by her daughter, Miss
Anna Jane, they enjoying the visit
very much.

business of the shop. He was taking
a vacation over the Sunday and the,
Fourth, enjoying the tims with his
family.
Earl Lancaster was shelling corn
last Monday and Tuesday, delivering
tame to the Murray Farmers Ele
vator and found a good price as well
as a fine opportunity to get the shell

shelling was done by the Richter
Brothers. There was some 6,000
bushels of the cereal.
rr. and Mrs. R. V. Tyson are
away for a two weeks vacation visit

going on nicely and the sore seems
almost entirely healed at this time.
A. F. Webber was in Independ
ence, Iowa on last Wednesday where
he went to visit with his parents who
mnirf. hteir home there. The father
is in fair health while the mother is
quite delicate and i.3 kept to her hed
much of the time. During the time
the son was at home she was much

rise, when in some way her left hand
became entangled in the clothes
which she was feeding into the
wringer, drawing her band into the
machinery of the wringer and crush
ing it very badly. She had tbe pres
ence of mind immediately to reach
for the electric switch, shutting off
the power, and with a good deal of
difficulty extracted the hand. The
member was extremely painful and
the husband, Geo. H. Meisinger who
was plowing corn in the field, was
called and the injured lady hastened
to Murray and to the office of Dr.
R. W. Tyson who was away on a va
cation and Dr. G. H. Gilmore who
had charge of the office during the
absence of Dr. TyEon was on a call
at Nehawka and it required some
time for him to return. During the
time Mrs. Meisinger waited through

Electric Camera
Makes Outdoor
Scenes Practical
Production of Ten Yean of Research
Obliviates Scanning Disc and
Other Handicaps.
Chicago. An electrie camera, be
lieved by its inventor to solve one
of the major problems of television,
was announced recently after ten
years of research work, before the
American Association for the Ad
vancement of Science.
It is believed to place the televis
ing of outdoor scenes in the realm
of practicability.
The new device, called an "icono
scope" by Its designer, Dr. Vladimar
Zworykin of the R. C. A. laborato
ries at Camden, N. J., was described
in a paper he delivered before the
annual convention of the Institute of
Radio Engineers.
Dr. Zworykin said it opens new
prospects for high grade television
transmission and at the same time
fferj wide possibilities in its appli
cation in many fields as a substitute
for the human eye, or for the ob
servation of phenomena, at present
completely hidden from the eye, as
in the case of the ultra-violet micro
scope." Cathode Tube Is Developed.
Dr. Zworykin has been active in
developing the use of the cathode ray
tube or "kinescope" for television re
ception, and now has applied the
same principles to the transmitting
end. Placing a cathode ray tube at
the transmitter as well as the re
ceiver makes the. entire process elec
trical and obviates the necessity of
scanning discs, mo cor s or other me
chanical devices. Research along
similar lines has been conducted in
Philadelphia by Philo T. Farns-
worth.
In outlining results obtained with
the "iconoscope," Dr. Zworykin said
that "some of the tubes are good up
to 500 lines with a good margin for
future improvement." Detail in a
television picture is governed by the
number of lines in the complete pic
ture, Eome cf the earlier experiments
containing only twenty-four lines.
The tube, he said, could be used
"not only for transmission of pictures
invisible to the eye in which the il
lumination is either, by ultra-violet or
infra-red light."
Outdoor Pictures Are Possible.
Explaining that "the real goal of
television" lies in the transmission of
outdoor pictures, heretofore handi
capped by the need for more light
than was obtainable with mechanical
systems and by failure to get a suf
ficient number of tbe picture ele
ments which give details. Dr. Zwory
kin said "the inherent resolution of
the device is higher than required
for 70,000 picture-element transmis
sion."
The tube, which has an overall
length of eighteen inches and a bulb
eight inches in diameter, looks some
what like an overgrown electric light,
with an exceptionally long neck. In
this neck is an electron "gun" that
nres a oeam or electrons against a
mosaic plate four inches square in a
scanning motion at high speed. The
mosaic plate is photo-sensitive and
really consists of many tiny photo
electric cells.
The picture is focused on the plate
by a lens system and then trans
formed into electrical energy by the
sweeping motion of the electron gun
ine tuDe can be mounted in a com
paratively small box and set upon a
tripod for picture taking, thus giving
easy portability.
PIG CROP SHOWS INCREASE
Washington An increase of 5 per
cent in the spring pig crop of this
year over 1932 was reported for Ne
braska Friday by the department of
agriculture, while a 20 percent In
crease is in prospect in the number
of sows to farrow this fall as com
pared with the 1932 fall season.
The number of pigs saved this
spring in Nebraska was estimated at
4,631 or 105 percent of last year's
4,406. In the spring of 1931, the
number reached 5,460.
The average per litter in Nebraska
this spring was 5.6 .compared with
5.3 for last spring. Nebraska sows
farrowing this fall were estimated
at 294,000 compared with 245,000
last fall.
DRAWS SUSPENDED SENTENCE
Monday afternoon in the county
court before Judge A. H. Duxbury,
a bearing was bad on a complaint
filed againEt Harley Morton, of pear
Union, charging him with having
created a disturbance' at the C. F.
Morton home- The court after bear'
ing the various etatezneuts in the
case, imposed a sentence of ninety
day and which was suspended.

Automobile is
Damaged when
Hitting Cow
Omaha Parties Have Smash Up on
Highway No. 75 Near Keck
Creek Filling Station.
From Tuesday's Dally
This morning shortly before 1
o'clock a party of Omaha young peo
ple in the Chandler tudor sedan of
Allen E. Miller of Omaha, was wreck
ed when their car crashed into a cow-
that was running loose along the
highway. The accident occurred
Eouth of the Rock Creek filling sta
tion.
The Omaha party was returning
home and had just come down a hill
and reaching the bottom discovered
that the cow was in the roadway and
apparently not giving an inch. The
car crashed into the ,cow and with
the result that the radiator was
smashed as well as the lights and
one of the front fenders.
The fact of the wreck was com
municated to the authorities and
Sheriff Homer Sylvester and Deputy
Sheriff Lancaster hastened out to the
scene of the accident. It was found
that the cow was the property of
William Lindner, residing nearby and
the cow had wandered from the barn
yard into the road. The cow had a
broken leg and it was necessary for
tlie deputy sheriff to put the animal
out of its suffering.
The damaged car and members of
the party were brought into this city
by John H. Becker, university stu
dent, who was returning home from
Lincoln, the car being placed in a
local garage for repairs.
