GROUND HOG DUE TO SEE TO E That shy quadruped, the ground hog, emerges from his winter quar ters today after an extended winter's snooze, sniffs the osone with a hypo critical snout, and decides whether you. and you, and you shall shed your long winter undies, or remain swathed In red flannels for the next six weeks. Ground hogs are few and far be tween In this district, but there Is no lack of amateur weather prophets who, wise In the lore of ground hog- ism, are willing to base their predic tions upon what his reactions would be were he here to Judge for himself, to-wit: A bright sun will cast the ground porker's shadow on the ground, scar ing hog Into a blue funk and his burrow, where he remains for a round six weeks while king winter reigns supreme outside. If, on the. other hand, the hog sees no shadow he assumes that all Is rosy, and remains on top the ground to bask In the spring sun shine, which obligingly nrrtvea to vin dicate his faith In his own astuteness, and continues for the remainder t the season. You can take that shadow stuff, or leave It alone. Professor John M. Oon- drin of the University of Toledo's bl ology department, says the ground hog doesn t know his shadow from the Elnstehi theory, but emerges be cause his endocrine system, dormant through the winter months, becomes active about this time and restlessly sends Sir hog out to stir around a bit. But endocrine or shadow, keep your eye peeled on the weather today It'll make a lot of difference in your wood billl WASHINGTON LIQUOR CLERK SHOOTS SELF SEATTLE, Feb. l.-(AP) William B.

(Associated Press Photo) EARTH TREMORS IDE BY DEVICE Fl CAMBRIDGE, Mass. (UP) The Massachusetts Institute of Technol ogy makes Its own earthquakes to study destructive effects on skyscrap ers and other buildings. The device, known as a "shaking table," was invented by Arthur C. Ruge, research associate In the civil engineering department. In consulta tion with Dr. Vannavar Bush, dean of engineering and vice-president of M. I. T. A "shadowgraph" or optical cam is cut out to follow a wavy path which duplicates the trembling effect shown on a seismograph record. The elec tric "brain" of the new device, cou pled to the "eye." controls tho ma chine In such a way that It is forced to follow the wavy line as the earth quake " shadowgraph" moves along Its path. The "shaking table" picks up the earthquake effect In a mechanical way, tossing and trembling like a real earthquake, thus enabling scientists to study the effect on a small engi neering model. A feature of the "shaking table" Is that though It can produce forces of 2.000 pounds if necessary, it produces only the amount needed to make It follow the "shadowgraph" properly.
