Hobbs, of the geology department. The party made the trip from De- troit by boat to Buffalo and by rail to the falls. Seventy-five took the trip, the largest number in its his- tory. The gorge trip was made, stops being included for the study of geologic formations and the scenery. The night illumination of the falls was observed from Goat Island, and many of the party took the ride on the Maid of the Mist past the foot of the falls. The accuracy with which the trip was planned and carried out lent much to the pleasure of those who made it.

Colby, of the physics department, yesterday after- noon lectured to an interested audi- ence on "The Theory of Quanta." In the course of developing his topic, Professor Colby brought out the difference between. the average be- haviour of a large number of people or objects and the behaviour of any scientific individual. He stressed the point that while a generalization of behaviour may hold good when ap- plied to a large enough group, n.o in- dividual part of the group necessar- ily acts in accordance with this gen- eralization. An example of this is the averagel "expectation of life" predicted and used by insurance companies. No one person lives precisely this pre- dicted length of time, but when the duration of life for a number are av- eraged, it is exactly the predicted figure. Professor Colby then showed that it was quite possible that the same idea applied to some of the so-called fundamental laws of science, that they are only generalizations of the be- haviour of the immense number of small parts, or quanta, that seem to make up a visible body of matter. He said that these same theories could be applied to energy also, although this is a more difficult conception. Summing up, the speaker said that this idea of quanta had tremendous possibilities-that perhaps space, time, and events do not take place contin- uously, but in a series of disconnect- ed steps. He said, "These ideas are certainly going to be disconcert- ing to'our old established theories of 1 energy and motion." ii - Ii Thursday Night, "Beyond the H Friday Night, Jul "If I Were Ki Reserved seats, 75 Shakespeare Playhouse presents in University Hall, at popular prices: July 17th, 8:15 o'clock, Eugene O'Neill's Saturday Afternoon, July 19th, 3:00 o'clock, Shakespeare's orizon."
