It lake-dec Hclence Kditor (Associated Jress Feature Service) NKW YOltK (Al') A wavering sound that goes "oo-oo-oo" is trav eling up uml down New York streets. It Is made by a phonograph cur ried on u truck In the city's new campaign to curb noise, and It even measures the short skirts contribu tion to bedlam. Tho soft nolo comes from a sound -measuring Instrument t hat spells (becoming doom of a least somo of the noise of American cities. For scientific findings concerning noise Indicate that this telltal'i sound ca n be taken everywhere. Its result is announced by th director of the Colgate university psychological laboratory. Dr. Don old A. l.aird. The.se girls are typ ists, copying only routine records, a mechanical task ut piecework pay. , On the first of last year the coil ing of their room was covered wifh a sound-absorbing material. There was an immediate upward jump of 12 per cent typing speed. The reason why is indicated in j Dr. I.alrd's laboratory. He finds I that when noise reaches a certain j fixed volume there Is slightly more than 20 per cent added bodily en- orgy, measured by calorics per minutes burned up, than in doing j the Hume typing in the same of fice with noise reduced. j When a group of women meets) nowadays, there Is in one respect ' I more noise Ihan 20 yearn ao. It is duo to short skirts. The extra noise chargeable- to each skirl rnngeS probably somewhere be tween the hum of a mlsqulto and tho buzz of a boo. The dlfferenco is so slight that It has not been measured, yet scien tists say 11 exists definitely. All clothing absorbs a certain amount of sound. Today it is estimated that an averagc-siaeil office with la women occupants has approximately 2 J less absorption units than former ly, due to tho noisy modern style. Hut the styles of li2 are not the objective of the little "oo-oo-oo." Instead it is catching, the shrill traffic whistle, the rumble of street cars, elevated and subways, the cough of motors, .slam-bang of tho ash man. the folly of the motor-horn driver. The truck apparatus is installed under direct Ion of Dr. J larvoy Fletcher, research engineer of the Dell laboalorlos. liiilli feif ill il i s 1 Itf fit ffl m n - I t $ New Spring Dresses SKiAK AM) Fl.OUt PORTLAND, Ore., Jan. 24 (AP) - 'ane suga r ( sacked basis) many Fit am v. ;iti;i:Ti;s Si; NT (UT UY HOOYKIIS oral issues 1 to 4 points below t heir 1 steady: cane, fruit or berry. $5.4 earlier hiirh levels.
