The tests given to expert rifle men and to other groups proved that riflemen excelled in five testa for ateadlness, leading the psychologists here to believe that It may be pos sible to discover the best prospects lor Rood rifle shots before the men are ent on the range for training. Complete- Information on the entire research project has been requested by Waldemar Kaempffert, science ed itor of the New York Times, who has informed Dr. Seashore that he will write an extensive article for the acience section of his newspaper.

It waa these reporta which brought the project to the attention of the many who have written In for In formation. Information On Poultry Code Is Given By Fletcher Information on the provisions of the poultry hatcherymen'a national code waa released In a statement from County Agent O. B. Fletcher here. Following is the information: "Since Feb. 8, 1034, the Commer dal Breeder and Hatching Industry code has been actively In effect In Oregon. "All persons In Oregon that pro duca chicka for aale, do any custom hatching for hire, deal In or sell chicka or poults or ducklings come under the code with one exception the person who uses eggs produced on his own farm and hntcliea them In his own Inctibatora and none or lesa than AOO chicks In the calendar year. "Each hatchery operator that comes Under the provisions of this federal code muat have posted in his hatchery a 'code compliance certificato' on and after Feb. 1, 11)34. Many operatora have not applied for thia certificate. Failure to operate without It la a vio lation of the code. "When rhlcks are Bold as Mood test. ed. a descriptive label not less than 4 by 5 Inches must be pasted on the box stating when the parent stock wss tested, what disease they were tested for, what method waa used, by whom tested and whether all reactora were removed. A failure to comply la a vhv lation of the code, (living extra chirks or poults beyond the actual number ordered is a violation of the code. "The rode prohibits the setting of eggs that weigh less than one and fire-sixth ounces each and averaging lesa than 23 ounces to the doaen, at the time they are placed In the incu bator. "Failure of any hatchery operator Februa Flapper Fanny Say: A windbag oftan produces gales of laughter, to pay the code cost of 15 cents per 1000 egg batching capacity, wita a minimum fee of 12 ia a violation of the code. Two copies of all catalogs and sales literature must be filed by every operator that comes under the code with the co-ordinating committee at Kansas City. Failure to do ao Is a violation of the code. All forms of misleading advertising are a code violation. Each natcnery operator ia responsible for its own ad vertising. Literature already printed that violatea the code will not be al lowed to be distributed. Whenever chicks or poults are aold as of the strain of a certain breeder, auch chicks or poults must be 100 per cent pure of that atrain. Cbfcka or poulta cannot be sold less thon cost. All listed prices must be filed at Kansaa City. Any change in chick pricea must be in the mails 48 hours before becoming effective or may bo made by wire 24 hours be fore becoming effective. Producers of chicks or poulta must bear in mind thia code ia a federal act, not an act of Oregon. "Heavy penalties are provided for violations of the code. The penalty for any violation ia the same aa the pen. alty for all other codea; namely, $500 and prison sentence, and the fine is repeated for each day the violation is willfully made. "The county agents tad extension poultryman, aided by the press and volunteer workera, are trying to com pile a complete Hat of all who may come under the code. A abort exten sion of time hss been provided aa a protection for Oregon operatora who may nave taken the situation lightly. Thia la the laat appeal before final lists are submitted. The txteaaion ser vice Is In no way Invoi.v. In carrying out the code or reporting violations. It la Interested only In compiling the names of those coming under the code as they have been instructed to do by the code authorities. Each oserator ia for his own protection 'ged to see that hla name Is on the list by getting In touch at once with County Agent O. 8. Fletcher." LOWELL WINS BUT COMMUNITY PLAY TRYOUT IS CLOSE The community dramatic clubs of Pleasant Hill, Trent and Lowell pre sented three playa last night at Trent in an elimination contest for the county ' ' ' dramatica championship sponsored' 'by' 'the Orange. Lowell wss adjudged the winner, but the decision was close. Pleasant Hill presented "Miss Ma rla," a rather sober but appealing drama of the '60's. The stage was aet with authentic pieces of - that period; the costumea were the real thing; grouplnga were well arranged and effective. Beal beauty was achieved proving good technique on the part of the director, Mrs. Allan Wheeler and cooperation by the cast. Miss Anna Parks In the title role was charming and consistent; Jed Wheeler, aa the elderly lover, did an excellent characterization. Mrs. Hat- tie Jacoby in the somewhat humor ous part of "Rose" waa consistently in character. The entire cast did good individual work, and if they had played more "to each other," they would have been nearer the award. The second play was "Weenies on Wednesday" by Trent, Mra. Frank Kimball directing, and thia piny showed fine work on her part. The grouplnga were well-planned, the Bet tings and costumes adequate and the characters well cast. Timing was good and the actors played together. Mrs, Clarence Rice as the Italian concert singer did an outstanding piece of work and Barry Manner as the young son of the family waB ao realistic with his wienies tbnt the audience Buffered pangs of hunger (they are the reviewers favorite fish). Lowell put on the third and prize winning play, "Hugo in a Hurry", Mra. Gwen Powers, directing. Joe Walker aa Hugo and Harold Fosner as Mr. Sparks were convincingly fun ay and the rest of the caat played up without a hitch. The play took first place because it achieved speed, rhythm and natur alness in addition to being adequate ly aet and cast. Perhapa it was kicky in drawing the closing place on the program. Anyhow It had that touch of confidence which made it "click." All three plays were greeted by a large and enthusiastic audience, and the judges In order to reach any de cision had to go Into "the fine pointa.' G. N. T.

This new line of cars, which are aaid to be the finest in the history of thia com pany, may now be seen by the public. Larger and more luxurious bodies of ultra modern type are mounted on chassis designed on the basic principle of unit-engineering which character ized the Terraplnne for 1U33. It is this principle which was responsible! for the unprecedented record of per formance and ruggedness established by this enr, according to Mr. Gilbert son, Tho Terraplane Six is made on a wheelbase of 112 inches and 110 in ches. The Hudson Eight is made in two wheelbase lengths, 116 inches and 123 inches. The exceptional smoothness for which Hudson-built engines have been famous since the introduction of the Super-Six is even accentuated this year. The six-cylinder Terraplane which takes the place of last year's model will have a larger motor, tbe displacement being increased from 103 to 212 cubic inches due to an increase in the bore of the engine from 2 15-18 inches to 3 Inches, and the stroke from 4 3-4 inches to 5 inches, making the dimensions now 3x3 bore and stroke. The new six-cyliudcr engine de velops 80 h. p.. at 3600 r. p. m. It hns a compression ratio of 5.75 to 1. On the DeLuxe . series six, which is on the 110 inche wheelbase, there is a composite aluminum and iron hend which raises the h. p. to S3 at 3600 r. p. m. with a compression ratio of 0.25 to 1.
