PICTURES BY IE Thl, It Is Claimed, Will Soon Be Possible Can Watch Ball Game by Telegraph, To sit in a theatre in Chicago or Boston and watch a world's sorles baseball gome on a screen just as it is being placed at that very moment on the grounds at New York, or sit In New York on the noon of March 4 and watch the inauguration while It Is actually In progress that is the moving picture show of the future Just now tho talking moving pic tures are proving as far an advance in marvel over the still pictures as the still pictures were In advance over the stereoptlcon, but the goal beyond the talking pictures Is the television pictures, or pictures from a distance. It Is coming. How many years, Is a question, but It will not be many In augurations. Already it can be done with a tiny picture, the size of a thumb nail, and If proper emphasis Is given to the difficulties of enor mous expense and crude results, It would be safe to say that tho Inaugu ration of PrcBldont Wilson could he seen In this way In New York. Hundreds of scientists all over the world are working on the problem of television, though perhaps none of them hns thought much nhout the use Hundreds of patents hnvo been taken out on details, and working models for tiny! pictures are being built by scores. To only a slight degree is the problem related to tho Idea of Rend ing photogi'nphB by telegraph wires, though In some particulars tho two Ideas overlap, and the successful Korn apparatus for sending photographs, which has created so much Interest In the Inst year, offers suggestions for help In the much harder and more promising field of distance moving pictures. Simple principles that can be easi ly understood are used in the tele vision work; It Is only the complica tion of tho apparatus which Is diffi cult or obscure. Look at any reproduction of a pho tograph In a newspaper a "half tone" and you will see that It Is made up of a quantity of tiny dotB, gome faint and somo comparatively thick and black. To reduce a photo graph, the engraver cuts tho origin al picture all up Into these lit t lo dots, by means of special apparatus for re photographlng the picture. In tele vision, the enmera which takes the picture of President Wilson as ho takeB the oath would cut tho picture up Into the same light and dark dots. Now If a message could be Bent back to New York tolling the comparative blackness of each of theBO dots, and each dot could he reproduced on a screen there with It a proper shade of black, thero would bo on tho Hewn a crude half-tone picture of tho scene. That's what, television does now. Tho simplest way to send tho mcs fiagcB of the dots is to use sllcnlmn, tho motnl which allows more or less electricity to pass through It, accord ing to whether little or much light Is thrown on It. Where each dot falls, In the receiving camera, Is a bit of sllenliitn, connected by wires to New York, and as the dot is dark or light, mi Hie amount of current, sent to New York from that dark Is controlled. Then at. New York thlH current con 1rolH n tiny light, which, by means of n tiny mirror, throws onto a screen the right, shade of light to represent that particular del. Every dot. lias tho same kind of apparatus. Hut the dots are so small that millions of wires would bo needed to send tho picture. AuHiiumltig, however, that such an ap paratus could lie built on a largo Brule for It tin ( been on a hiiiuII ucalo, nil that would lie necessary lo have Iho dlHlanee moving plctiiro would be to keep tho current flowing, nud the tiny dnls would, vary just as the picture In I tue receiving camera varied, and it would bo a distance moving picture In New York. The quantity of wires is the stum bling block, but two schemes have been used to get over this. One Is to have only a few sots of wires which would one after the other, hundreds In a fraction of a second, Bend tho roport as each dot's blackness to New York, and then go back and Bend a new report on each dot, all In 15 times a second. That has been dono on a small scale. Prof. Rosing, of the St. Petersburg, Technological Institute, has worked out the best scheme so far. lie uses an apparatus which takes tho repoort of each dot separately and Bends It to tho other end over one pair of wires. At tho receiving end that dot Is flashed onto the screen In the proper place. By a very complicated ma chine every dot is Is picked up, sent over tho one pair of wires, and flashed on the screen at the other end, 15 times a second. Scores of other ways of sending the dots are being tried out, and the only question about dlstanco moving pictures Is not "can it be done soon?" but "how soon will It be done?" "rYIIIamete Notes. Ralph Moores has been elected to manage the annual Oregon-Willamette law school debate. Nothing defi nite has been Bottled on as yet, but It Is planned to hold tho debate In April. Tho track work has now started In earnest, and a goodly number are working out. each evening: Among the old men are: Stearns and Marsh, mile; Mclnturff, sprints and low hur dles; lllaekwell, sprinter, Jumps nud low hurdlcB; Francis, sprints and weights; .Tory, distances; Rowlands, distances; Mills, hurdles and jumps; I'faff, weights; Smith, jumps and pole vault; Doan, polo vault and Jumps. It Is probable that Mills will not. he out. Ills absence will leave a big gap 111 the jumps nnd hunlles. Brazier Small, an old Salem high star, is the only track man of note that, has yet been discovered1 among the new men. However, many of the new students have asserted their In tendon of trying out, and It. Is quqlte possible that new talent may he dls- oavered.

Next Friday evening the stale ora torical contest occurs at Newlierg, Erin Pi.lt, who will represent Willam ette, has his "thunder" all In "Al" order.
