Food Stores May Be
Circular in Future
Chicago (UP.) Circular food
tores may be the shape ot the
future.
According to the National As
sociation o Retail Crocers, such
stores would provide maximum
selling area and the most effic
ient operation.
The N'ARGL'S Bulletin, official
publication of the association,
presented a circular layout and
described the advantages and dis
advantages of the "circular
store."
The article quoted architects
to the effect that there is 30 per
cent more shelf space in a round
building than in a square one and
customers can see 70 per cent
more of the merchandise on cir
cular shelves.
The bulletin itself drew no
conclusions, but said, "it is pos
sible and workable."
In another article on tomor
row's grocery, the publication
said covered walks would offer
protection from the weather
from the shopper's car to the
store Interior.
"Pick-up stations near the
exit will eliminate need for
carry-out boys," the article said".
"Loudspeakers will flood the en
tire area with soft music, inter
spersed with shopping suggestions."

Ass is Dismissed
From Cicero Tomb
Rome U.P.) Italian offic
ials disclosed that they plan to
dispossess an ass now living in
the tomb of Cicero, the great
Roman writer and statesman.
The officials said the square,
tower-like tomb, now covered
with vegetation, has been turned
into a donkey stall by the farm
er who owns the land. But the
government's antiquities depart
ment plans to start restoring it
soon.
Like many other glories of
pagan Rome Ciceros tomb has
been desecrated in the Christian
era, although it never suffered
the ultimate degradation of the
Roman Forum. The Forum was
turned into a garbage dump af
ter noblemen and priests had
taken away the magnificent.
marble columns to build villas
and churches.
The tomb of Marcus Tillius
Cicero, who lived from 106 to 43
B.C., lies off the ancient Appian
Way near the town of Formia.
It is about 36 feet high.
Local authorities have started
action to get possession of the
hectare of land on which the
tomb is located.
Despite its long abandonment
the tomb is considered to be
among the best preserved of its
time.
Cicero, who studied oratory
and law in Rome and Athens, be
came a consul and won fame for
crushing the conspiracy of Cat
iline. He was the leader of the
opposition to Julius Caesar.
When Ceasar was murdered in
44 B.C., Cicero denounced An
thony. For this he was prose
cuted and put to death.
His writings include De Ami
citia (on friendship) and De Sen
ectute (on old age).

New Tent Makes
Camping More Fun
Chicago (U.B A new tent
developed at the Illinois Insti
tute of Technology is designed
to make camping trips more
fun.
Tlie tent a wedge-shaped
pup-tent that sleeps three peo
ple is light, compact, self-supporting
and economical, the in
stitute said.
Students at Illinois Tech's, in
stitute of design were required
to create such a structure as
part of an experimental design
project in camp-housing for the
Young Men's Christian Associa
tion of Chicago.
Richard Baringer, institute
lecturer under whose direction
the project was carried out, said
the tent designed by the stu
dents utilizes the space it en
closes most efficiently.
"It is a self-contained struc
ture that overcomes many dis
advantages of conventional
tents," he said.
He said the entire tent, skin
and supporting poles, weighs
less than five pounds and can
be packed into a compact roll
about one yard long and with
a diameter of seven inches.
One person can erect the tent
in less than five minutes, Bar
inger said. It requires no tent
stakes and thus can be set up
on rock or sand.

Water Hydrant Helps
Willow Tree Grow
J)urant, Okla. U.R) Back
about 1926 a man rode up on a
horse one day, dismounted and
stuck his willow switch into the
ground in front of a general
merchandise and grocery store.
Today a big, shady willow tree
stands in the spot. It has become
a popular meeting place for poli
tical candidates and other speak
ers. The tree's humble beginning
was helped along by a water
hydrant. The overflow of the
hydrant supplied plenty of water
for the switch and it sprouted
and eventually grew into a tree.

Shouting Unheard
In Anechoic Chamber
Berkeley, Calif. (U.R) There's
a new boom at the University
of California where you can
shout to your heart's content
or scream for that matter and
no one will be able to hear a
sound.
This unusual room, an an
echoic chamber, is equipped with
special fiberglass wedges that
absorb noises.
University engineers use the
room to study noise radiations
from small machines, such as
electric motors and drills. The
main project is to find out in
what direction sound waves
from such machines travel and
how much sound travels in each
direction.
About 3.000 two - foot - long
fiber glass wedges went into the
chamber's walls, ceiling, . and
floor, to be covered by a four
inch thickness of glass wool
mats.
