SAILING, SAILING--Members of the popular University sail.
ing club have a sure way to beat the heat. They dash out
to Whitmore Lake at a moments notice to man the fine fleet
of sail-boats owned by the club. An organizational meeting will
be held at 7:30 p.m. tomorrow in the Union to which all inter-
ested students are invited. No experience is needed, for the ex-
erienced sailors will be glad to teach any new members. Swim.
ming, partying and trips to regattas all add to the fun.
Bell Time-Telling Machine
Saves Wear on Vocal Chords

Telling people what time it is
for several hours a day can get
pretty monotonous.
That's one of the reasons why
Bell Telephone Company in De-
troit has installed an ingenious
mechanical time-telling device
that provides accurate time every
second of the day, and never
sounds bored with the job.
* * *
BEFORE November of last year
when the machine was acquired,
operators counted off the seconds
for tedious half-hour stretches,
staring at a clock dial in a sound
proof booth and giving out the
time at 15 second intervals.
Since the installation of an
Audichron time device, opera-
tors can save their nerves for
other uses and the machine au-
tomatically tells the time every
ten seconds.
Operated with a mass of knobs
dials and levers, the machine has
a photo electric cell and emplifier
which send out the time-telling
voice to many cities in the lower
peninsula, including Ann Arbor.
Accurate timing comes from the
National Bureau of Standards in
Washington, D.C. where time sig-
nals are broadcast every five min-
utes.
IT TOOK ONLY 10 minutes to
tell 12 hours of time on the special
Audichron recording films. First
the person making the film said,
"At the tone it will be one," and
so on through the 12 hours. The
minutes and seconds were simi-
larly recorded on other films.

JAMES STEWART
in "CARBINE WILLIAMS"

Then the three separate films
were put on three drums, each
with a variety of gears revolving
at different speeds.j
A super-human "selector car-
riage" mounted on top of the
drums travels back and forth, au-
tomatically selecting the hour,
minute and second in proper se-
quence.
Two lights on the selector, re-
sembling radio tuners, send out a
beam which passes through an
aperature to the mirror-like sur-
face of the drums. The light is
then reflected into a photoelectric
cell which beams the voice to an
amplifier.
THE AUDICHRON, admittedly
not infallible, has duplicate right
and left hand sets, just in case
something goes wrong with one
set. It also has its own power plant
to supplement the variations in
commercial power.
And if any drastic variation in
the time, like a tenth of a second
in two weeks, should occur, a gad-
get on the control board can be
turned to advance or retard the
voice to the right time.
But should the machine suffer
a complete breakdown, manual
equipment and operators are still
on hand to take over the monoton-
ous job of telling people what time
it is.
Giles To Give

sity carilloneur, will present the
