RIM PARTS FILM PAIR THRILL ATOM AMAZING Science Now Nearly Knows What an Atom Looks Like, and Some of Its Habits There Is Finalty In New Theory. ITHACA, N. Y., Juno 21 The Helsonberg-Compton ntom, a new picture of How negative, hits of electricity get together to mako solid substance, was presented to the Amorlciin physical, floclety at Cornell university today. It reveals electrons, as the elec trical particles are called, moving in vapory clouds rather than like planets In orbits. Dr. Arthur H. Compton, Ameri can Nobel prize winner In physics, reported the discovery. He said this new picture wns mndo In the Kyerson physical laboratory at the University of Chicago and these experiment come the closest of any yet performed to showing "what the ntom looks like.' Dr. Compton obtained thin look Into atoms by combining tho latest methods of observation and jf mathematics. The atoms at which he looked were helium. X-rnys shining through helium gns pro duced haloes much like the fa miliar ring around the moon. Just att tho moon halo reveals the size of Invisible deoplets of water causing It. D- Compton said the helium ga haloes showed not only the size of atoms but "gives us precise Information regarding the electron distribution In atoms." The meaning of this Information was calculated by fourler integrals nnd by the new principle of prob ability originated by the youn:- German scientist Werner Tlelsen lierg. I'nder this principle on'y the probable position of a mov ing electron can be determined be cause It Is Impossible to measure with perfection both velocity and position. When we review the many n:- omlc theories that have been pro posed and dlscnrded,M said Dr. Compton, "It may perhaps appear too bold to say the particular theory In vogue has nny finality, One by one the vnnnx ring atom of Kelvin, the positive chnrge.l Jelly of Thomson, tho minute solar systems of Itutherford, Bohr nnd Hommerfeld, as well as the tiny atoms f Crehore, the ring electron atoms of Parson and the cubic at om of Lewis and Lnngmulr have given wny to more promising suc cessors. We replace even Hchroed Inger's diffuse cloud of negative electricity by n probability cloud of electrons after the manner of Heisenberg. It flppenrs, however, the only one of these many pro posals which can account for the olwerved X-ray diffraction haloes is that of Helsenberg." CORVALLIS BANKS MERGEASSETS COHVA.LLKM, Ore..

The mayor, the former ' mayor, the chief of police and tho form er sheriff, alleged ringleaders, and 2S more were found guilty of con spiracy because of the city's" Ad mitted policy of assessing saloons, gambling halts and vice dens for money to "build : vladuclH and bridges and things, , and for the school fund." Thus In Wnllaeo an at Mullan, officials will be swept out of of fice and Into Jail for carrying- on policies they said have been "In vogue" ever since Idaho went dry.
