S[[E1IMPRO'VEME[NT Itichigan Chemistry Instructor Think-s Long' Research W~ill Bring Better Lighting Methods DESCRIBES,'COLD LIGHT' Drastic improvements in present day artificial illumination can be ex- pected in the future as a resuit of ex- periments on' "cold light" which mark years of research spent by Prof. E' Newton Harvey of Princeton univer- sity, is the opinion expressed by a mnember of the chemistry faculty here: The expelments are in their infancy, however, and it is believed that the day of 100 per' cent efficient lighting is far from realization at the present clay. Professor Harvey, recently return- edJ from the laboratories of Naples, has given the world much of its pres- ent, knowledge of auimal luminesc- ence,' According to a report made on - his most recent e. oi, ments, he an- nouinces that hie has6 been able to re- vive luminescence in dead phosphor- escent fish' by the use of the ultra- violet ray. Of what impzortance this may be to the uncertaita nature of the phenomena remains to be seen. Animal light is formed by the un- ion of two secretions, probably pro- tein in. nature-one an enzyme, the . other a substance that is readily oxid- led, In the presence of the enzyme, oxidation takes place with the - pro- duction of heat andI light, but the amount of heat produced in the reac- tion is so small that it is unmeasur- able. Little is known concerning this \reaction except that it requires an abundance of oxygen. It is a well known; fact that the or- d inary tun~gsten filament, used in elec- tric light bulbs, is less than 10 per cent efficient. A greater portion of the energy passed off as infra-red rays,{ which serve no illumninating purpose! vas they are invisible. Thus, were it} possible to reproduce a light such as I the fire-fly's, all the energy consum-! ed would go into the production fo light itself, In the opinion of the chemistry de- partment here, much remains to be{ done before we understand thoroughly the nature of the organic substances involved in the process. That they are closely associated with protopl- asm is well established, but the struc- ture of protoplasm% itself is not de,~ finitely known. 50 Near Death In Tram Plunge CABRFVS h ~ ~>~.PARKPROPO SL Enlcrses P~urchaise Of cec Plark Siies At Regular Weekly Iluncheon DISCUSSES COURT ISSUE Results of a straw vote taken by mnem ers of the Chamber of Commerce at their regular weekly luncheon yes- terday show that the organization fa- vors the proposed appropriation of $25,000 for the purchase of park sites, 52 to 5. Need of such additional land was discussed by Hackley W. Butler, memb~er of the park board, and T. A. Gallup, superintendent of parks, pre- vious to the balloting. "!According to the best authorities a city should have one acre of land as parks per 100 population," saidl Mr. Gallup, "and according to the last cen- sus Ann Arbor should have 270 acres. At present the city only owns 143 acres for such purposes.' It is the desire of the board now to purchase additional land between t he H uron river and the Univer'sity hospital, bor- dering the present Island park, 1o as- sure that the district will not be sub- divided, which it is pointedI out would ruin the outlook of the nark.
