It was shown that years when

his serene and cultivated influence.
We became good friends. He en
couraged me constantly and the
year before I took my M. A. he

of the department, he and I. The

I became connected in my spare

been entirely confined to teaching
or to his experiments in the labor

the capacity of a consulting

firms and more than once has
figured prominently in patent lit

the evolution of the new record in

named Joseph Reilly, president of
the Reillv Klectrotype company
got the idea of devising a cheap
method of manufacturing phono-p-riinh
records bv stamping the
grooves on a hard paper surface.
He tried ail sons oi ways, uwu
a lot of his money but was un
successful. He spent two years
doing it and got nowhere. He came
to me and asked me what 1
thought about the idea. I said at
the time I was pretty skeptical.
I didn't think it could be done.
The steel needle, I suggested,
would cut through the thin paper
and spoil the plan entirely. In fine
I told Reilly that it was a foolish
idea.
How Records Are Made.
'You know how records are
made now don't you? No? Well
they take a lump of wax and place
it between two lead matrixes
which are superimposed upon the
steam heated maws of a hydraulic
press. On the matrices are the
grooves of the record. The two
maws clamp together and after
melting the wax make their im
press on it. Then you wiat until
the wax cools and hardens before
you can take it out of the matrix.
It's a long process and only about
seven hundred records a day can
be produced that way.
"Reilly came to me and asked
me to work on the idea atij try
at his expense to devise a sub
stance which cools a lot more
quickly and which would acceler
fQ tha nrneesa cpnerallv. I agreed
to work with him and it suddenly
struck me what was needed was
a heat-hardening substance rather
than a heat-softening one. What
was needed was a resin-like bake
lite. But bakelite wouldn't do. I

years with my colleagues, Dr.

wo tmenr. all our snare evenings
working on it and all our summer
vacations. We found that durium
could be imposed upon a nexiuie
paper surface and that it would
withstand the hardest kind of wear
and tear. Let me show you."
Professor Beans went .to his
desk and brought over a sample
record. He took an iron mallet and
swung heavily down on it. It made
no impression. He threw the
record across the room and all that
happened was a lot of noise.' The
record remained whole and un
damaged. "We then made a few sample
records. They were tested by the
Western Electric company, by the
Victor company and by the Vita
phone people, and they all gave it
a clean bill of health and told us
that the tonal quality was excel
lent. The Durium Products com
pany was organized with offices
at 460 West Thirty-fourth street.
We found that we could run the
records off in much the same way
that newspapers came off the
presses, and that one man at one
press could make 480 records a
day. Last Friday I understand the
company had already produced
70,000 records which they will re
lease in about two weeks in the
first district. The distribution plan
is to split the country up into dis
tricts and sell the records much
as they do magazines, on news
standa, at book sores and so on.
They will cost 15 cents each and
are called the "Hit of the Week
Records." We've got men behind
us like Barney Baruch, J. E. Reyn
i.io nrooiHonf of the. First Na
tional bank of New York City, and
twelve other prominent capitalists.
In full swing we expect to turn
out 20,000,000 records a year.

Heart I'rom Kissing,
Declares Dr. Lyman
One kiss, because of it effect
on the heart, shortens the life three
minutes. This statement, made
often and freely by alleged scien
tists, is not founded on fact, in the
opinion of Dr. R. A. Lyman, dean
of the pharmacy college.
There is no harm in kissing ac
cording to Dean Lyman, unless
germs of some sort are transierrca
This is found to be decidely en
couraging by many students, par
ticularly so since sociology stu
dents at Baylor university have
conducted a research which shows
that the average college student
losses about 900 hours of life be
cause of the "three minute limit"
on kissing.
Dean Lyman stated further that
in order to determine Uie effect
of kissing on university students it
would be necessary to find one
who had never been kissed. It is
possible that discouragebent on
the part of the one who has never
been kissed would have as bad an
effect upon the heart as would
kissing itself.
With spring weather coming
on it is considered encouraging
by many kissers and kissees to
know that they are not forfeiting
three precious minutes of life with
each smack.

As. such, the Student council has
the right to examine organization

The argument that to grant this
is to admit that the power of the
council is so absolute, that it may
destroy student organizations at
its mere whim, is specious, for two
reasons: First, the council doesn't
and never has indulged in the prac

whims. And second, whatever the
council doe is subject to the ap

insist upon, however, is that it is

tion has led your committee to
feel the necessity of expressing the
construction which it gives to the
powers of the Student council. It
feels that a definition of the au
thority which the Student council
possesses will clarify the situation
and prevent misunderstanding in
the future.
The constitution of the Student
council (adopted by the student
body, May 25, 1917, and sanctioned
by the University senate,) pro
vides as follows: "The purpose of
this organization shall be the re
lating of all extra-curricular ac
tivies to one another and to the
university as a whole; the creation
of such other expressions of stu
dent life as shall supplement those
already established: the direction
nf aneii matters of student interest
as shall be initiated by or referred
to the Student council. (Aixicie n,
p. 69 in the General catalc j.)

The clear wording of this article
indicates that the council has been
granted a wide jurisdiction over
student affairs which are outside
the regular curricular activities. It
is given direction of all matters of
student concern, to coordinate
them in the interests of the univer
sity as a whole. TKe purpose of
