World’s Tiniest Light
To Reveal Life in
Embryonic Stages
PITTSBURGH, Pa. — OP) —
What is probably the tiniest light
in existence, a glowing point so
minute that only a microscope
can detect it. has been developed
at the University of Pittsburgh
The light is not enclosed in'a
globe, but is collected into a lit
tle ball by the peculiar affinity
that quartz has for light. The
apparatus was devised by Dr.
Allred E. Wyif of the department
of zoology*
Crystal clear quartz has' all
the pioperties of glass and others
•besides. A piec*» of it, of the
shape oi an un.\irpencd pencil
transmits light from one end to
the ether, like a light shining
through a straight piece of rub
ber hose. If ther ubber tube if
bent the light ceases to shine
through, but when the quarts
pencil is bent it still transmits
light from end to end.
Dr. }Vo!f had one end of a
quartz pencil drawn down, just as
l!oss is drawn, until its point was
finer than that of a needle. He
applied ultra-violet light to the
lam*e end. nnd it appeared at the
needle end in a globule finer than
any mist.
Two of these quartz pencils
were made.. fastened in the mid
dle to work as a pair of pincers
and with their points bent so. as
to meet each other when the pin-
cere closed. Each point,, or ©he
of them, may carry ultra-violet
light, so that the operator has an

American Yachts To
Eliminate Causes of
Dread Mai deMer
NEW YORK,—(/P)—American?
are equipping their newest yachts
with a device to take seasickness
out of. sea voyages. It is a gyro
stabilzer that stops rolling in
rough weather.
Announcement that our yachts
*kw under construction are to bet
equipped with stabilizers is made'
by Sperry Gyroscope company of |
Brooklyn.- The craft arc being
built for Fred J. Fisher. Alfred
E. Sloan, Jiv and R.: W. Hud
son# all. cf Detroit, and Harold
Vanderbilt.
How auything inside a ship can
stop its rolling has been one of
the most difficult of modern in
vention* even for seamen to un
derstand. An explanation of the
secret was obtained by Premier
Mussolini last summer from El
mer A. Sperry, the New York
ecentist, who devised the method.
He had an audience with Musso
lini after the Italian navy nstall-
cd a stablizer on its 1.200-ton
eraser, Gugliemo Pepe.
‘‘You have stabilized our
Pepe!”, Mussohnl exclaimed. "Our
designers explaines it, »but I do,
not understand.
“I cannot soe b«»w you can stop
a ship from rolling unless you
retch out from one s.nc to grip a
mighty force.”
"That.” replied the American
inventor, “is just what we do.”
“Ah,” exclaimed Mussolini, “I
knew' they told me wrong- What
is the force?”
“It is a force.” Sperry replied,
“at strong as Gibraltar and a
di m s»ght more useful.- It is n
law of natufe.”
It is Newton's law of motion
studied by every fhoolboy. and
its application familiar to ev
ery boy who spins a top.
A top resists being pushed out
of the upright piano in which it
whirl*. Scientists know that
when it is pushed it does not fall
over, as an upright stick would
in the direction opposite fro the
push. Inytead. it tends to fall ns
• .man. would .if he pitched upon
hi* faee when, pushed from one
side. They know also that while
one side of a top to pushed is
trying to go down, the opposite
Side is resisting with equal force.!
