FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 18, 1949 THE BEND BULLETIN, BEND. OREGON PAGE NINE un 'So May dless Sound' in Washing Machine Be Scapless Soap of Tomorrow (Br NEA Service) Washington (NEA) A noise you can't hear may soon be do ing the family wash without soap or detergents. The same "soundless sound" also will be homogenizing milk (the kind you drink) and blend ing cold cream (the kind women put on their faces). That is the prediction, in audi ble tones, of Stanley F. Reed, di rector of the Reed Research lab oratories in Washington, who says that "practical, every-day use of 'soundless sound' is now simply a' matter of adapting to commercial mass production the results we are getting in, the jaooratory. By "soundless sound," he means the sound frequencies too 1iigh for the human ear to hear. Sound can readily be turned into power, and in the ultrasonic or soundless range it's equal to sev eral thousand times the force of gravity. , . Up to now, the high cost of the electric power it takes to make "soundless sound" has kent its possmiiities in the dream stage. but Reed researchers, claim they nave iouna a metnod that s seven and a half times cheaper than any other. The trick, Reed believes, is to make the fluid used in a specific operation (such as the water in the washing machine) take the Silent Sound does the work In this laboratory laundry. place of most of the electric pow er ordinarily used. This is accomplished by what he calls a "vortex system." It shoots the fluid, jet fashion, against a reed or diaphragm and generates enormous amounts of sound energy. The energy of this noiseless noise does the work. In the Reed laboratories right now, they're doing laundry with a washing machine that operates j witn ordinary cold tap water ana nothing else. No soap, no wring er, no drier, and no heater. In industry. Reed expects to produce solutions of oil and wa ter that won't separate, blend beauty preparations, cut the cost of homogenizing milk by 75 per cent, lower the cost of milking paper, and do all kinds of indus trial cleaning jobs. Reed's- interest in ultra high things also has prompted him to invent a cafeteria tray that will keep (he sizzle in steaks and the steam in coffee for at least 20 minutes after you finish arguing with the cashier and start hunt ing for a table. It -works with ultra high fre quencies just below those used in radar. When the compart mented tray is slid down the counter tO'the cashier's desk, it contacts an electronic heater which fires up the hot food sec tions of the tray. Like the noise-you-can't-hear tnat wasnes ciotnes. this is heat you-can't-feel unless you stick your thumb in the' soup. The bottom and sides of the tray re main at room temnerature. and your ice cream won't melt unless you get it In the wrong compartment.

Barkley and Mrs. Carleton S. Hadley were married today in a single ring ceremony at St. John's Methodist church. Only members of the immedi- aie iamnies oi tne vice-president and the bride were present at the -simple exchange of vows, along with about 50 reporters and sec ret service men. The wedding took place at 11 a.m., CST, with Dr. Ivan Lee Holt, Methodist bishop of Mis souri, officiating and Dr. Albea Godbolt, pastor of St. John's, as sisting, i The attractive 38-vear-old bride and the 71-year-old Barkley prom ised each other "to have and. to. hold, from this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish, till death do us part. . . ." Church Decorated The Singleton Memorial chapel, in which the vows were ex changed, was decorated with woodwoodia fern. , Two baskets of white chrysanthemums were placed at the head of the aisle. The bride wore a wedding suit 'designed especially for her by Hat lie Carnegie in Barkley blue woolen. The jacket buttoned from a small rounded collar, nipped in at the waistline and curved at the hlpline. An ice-blue satin blouse, also by Carnegie, had a portrait neckline. She wore a chif fon felt cloche with a medium rippling brim in matching Bark ley blue. Barkley wore a formal morn ing suit for the ceremony which mae!e him the first vice-president in. the history of the country to be married in office. Skies Overcast Overcast skies and a cold br"cze had little effect on the spirits of the couple, or on the hundreds of persons who stood near the entrance to the church as the ceremony took place. Mrs. Hadley was given away in marriage by her brother, Wil liam W. Rucker, West Palm Beach, Fla. Best man was Bark- ley's son, David, who brought his wife and two children from Pa ducah, Ky., to witness the ceremony.

Burning Brakes Set Forest Fire Tucson, Ariz. ilPi A new meth od of starting forest fires Iris been found here, but forestry ollicials don t recommend it. A lookout notified rangers a fire was burning near Lizzard rock in the Catalina mountains. Arriving at the scene, the rang ers found nine fires. Investigation disclosed that a truck had made its way up the Mount Lemmon grade with its brakes on. A brake shoe became red hot and broke into pieces, shooting tiny flames into leaves and pine needles. The tires were all extinguished before they caused any damage. Charlie Can't Stay In Jail; Very Unhappy Atlanta, Ga. IP Police here have a problem on their hands in the person of one Charlie Schmidt, aged 65. Schmidt likes jail. Ever since he arrived here five years ago, broke and hungry, Schmidt's only comfortable mo ments have been spent in the lockup. He never misses a chance to get behind prison bars. Six times this year, Schmidtl was booked for idling and loiter ing. Six times Police recorder A. W. Callaway sent him to the cooler. But on the seventh time, he balked. "What's the use of punishing this man," Callaway reasoned, "when he enjoys his punish ment?" ' Picked Up Again Recently, officers aeain found Schmidt sleeping in a downtown doorway. Thev. tanned the thin soles of his shoes with a night- SUCK. Schmidt blinked, looked un and broke into a wide smile. When the wagon arrived, he almost chuckled aloud. The next dav. Schmidt was tak en before Judge Callaway, his neaa ooweu, perhaps to hide a grin, and his checkered cap in his hand. Callaway was so irritated by the regularity of the culprit that he refused to send him to jail. "Find some other place for him to go," he told Mrs. Clyde Aven, a policewoman. Prefers Road Canir Mrs. Aven asked Schmidt what his pleasure would be. His answer left her baffled, in view of Calla way's order. Schmidt replied that he wanted to "work with the road gang." When told that he absolutely would not get a stockade sen tence, Schmidt was on the verge of tears. "I've no place to go," he said Mrs. Aven told him that no man should spend his entire life in jail, especially if lies not a ,,. ,,.!.. : , A 39.000,000 Bu. Mi 188,000,000 Bu. V I i32,ooo!ooo eu.Jf .

House Has Clues To Early Life Chicago din An ancient dwell ing last used about 1,000 years ago has revealed probably the first American effort at slum clearance, according to Dr. Paul S. Martin, chief curator of ant ho pology at the Chicago natural his tory museum. Martin said the structure, dis covered about 10 miles north of Silver City, N.M., contained corn- grinding mills, stone ax-heads hammer stones and bone awls. It is the oldest dwelling yet found wltn adjoining rooms and mason ry walls, and built above the sur face of the ground. Probably built around 950 A.D. and abandoned about 1100 A.D., the building represents aborigin al American man's earliest efforts to pull himself upward," Martin said.

Nov. 18 (IP) Na tional Maritime union officials telegraphed their president, Jo seph Curran, at San Antonio, Tex., Thursday, asking him to re turn immediately to quiet a dis pute between left-wing and right wing factions which flared into fist fights. The telegram urged Currah to charter a plane if necessary to re turn iron) a live-state meeting oi the Communications Workers of Americ" which he is attending at San Antonio. A special detail of 55 police men guarded the NMU's national headquarters and hiring hall. where sporadic fist swinging be tween the deft and right wing fac tions broke out yesterday. However, the building was quiet today, and the streets around it were clear of everyone except casual pedestrians. Shortly after 9 a.m., a group of 60 union employes entered the headquarters in a group. H. B. Warner, union vice-presi dent and NMU port administrator for New York, said the dispute was not between "union officials and rank and file membership," but was a fight within the mem bership. "It stems from the member ship attempt to Emoke out those who nave declared tneir loyalty to the communist party," Warner said. Much of the world's supply of the metal molybdenum, used to harden steel, comes from Colorado. For Fine Foods Dinners and Dancing THE OASIS 826 Arizona Featuring ...
