ENGINEERING NEWS
The wireless station of the engin-
eering college took part last night in
a test relay of the newly organized
government amateur radio relay
league. This has been formed as one
of the units of the nation-wide pre-
paredness scheme.
The local station, because of its
superior equipment and radius, has
been designated as the key station for
26 smaller stations in Ohio, Indiana,
Illinois and Kentucky. In case of
war these stations and their operators
would be used to keep the means of
communication between the different
parts of the country intact and it is
to perfect this arrangement that a
test was held yesterday.
With a radius of 2,000 to 4,000 miles,
dependent upon weather, conditions,
the campus station ranks among the
best amateur and college stations in
the country. A new receiving set was
recently installed, which will add con-
siderably to the completeness and ef-
ficiency of the plant.
The operation of the station is en-
tirely in the hands of students of the
electrical engineering department, un-
der the supervision of Prof. H. S. Shep-
pard.
Prof. J. B. Robinson of Washington
University was the principal speaker
at the Architectural society "booster
banquet" at the Delta last night. Pro-
fessor Robinson is the father of Prof.
B. Robinson of the architectural de-
partment.
Other speakers on the program
were: Toastmaster, G. S. Underwood,
'17A, R. B. Frantz, '17E, and J. D.
Kenyon, '17A.
The October issue of the Technic
proved to be a "record-breaker," 2,000
copies of the number being sold.
On Dec. 15 the final issue to be ed-
ited by the present staff will appear.
The men whose term ends with the
December number are: managing ed-
itor, R. L. McNamece, '17E; editor, C.
M. Burns, '17E; business manager, H.
S. Taylor, '17E.
The new editors will be announced at
the annual staff dinner which will be
held some time during the coming
month.

BUD A GODMAN PLEADS NOT
GUILTY AS BLACKMAIL LURE
New York, Nov. 10.-Buda Godman,
alias Alice Williams, arrested in Chi-
cago and brought here yesterday in
connection with the government's
prosecution of persons accused of con-
spiring to blackmail wealthy men in
various cities, pleaded not guilty in
federal court here today.
She and James Christian, who en-
tered the same plea, are named in a
complaint made by Edward R. West
of Highland Park, Ill., vice-president
of a tea and coffee company, who
charges that an attempt was made to
blackmail him out of $15,000 under a
threat of "prosecution," under the
Mann act.
The Godman woman and Christian
are under $10,000 bonds for trial here
in December.

South Africa is all the territory ly-
ing between the Zambezi river and
the Cape of Good Hope.
The Union of South Africa includes
the four provinces, Cape Colony, Natal,
Transvaal, Orange Free State, and the
three territories of Zululand, Lwazi-
land, and Bechuanaland. Basutoland,
Rhodesia, and British Southwest Africa
are also included, being crown colonies
and directly under the British govern-
ment.
South Africa was first discovered by
Bartholomew Diaz, a Portuguese navi-
gator, in 1486, while trying to find the
eastern route to India, China, and Ja-
pan. Columbus tried to do the same
thing by sailing west and discovered
the Americas. So these two naviga-
tors on similar errands found nevi
and unheard-of lands.
No settlement was made until the
seventeenth century, when the Dutch
East India company established a half-
way post at the cape in order that the
crews of their ships might obtain fresh
water and vegetables before proceed-
ing on the final journey to India.
Johan van Riebeek was the first gov-
ernor. He and his company of Hol-
landers were the pioneers of the South
African people.
The Transvaal and Orange provinces
were established by the Boers, who,
dissatisfied with the British rule, had
emigrated deep into the wild country.
Natal was partially founded by the
British and the Boers.
"Who are the Bores?" is a question
that has often been asked. The word
"Boer" means farmer. And the Boers

first admixture of foreign blood. The
majority of the Boers are descended
from these two races. Later a band
of German settlers further added to
the cosmopolitan nature of therBoer.
As a race, however, the Boers are
usually considered as the inhabitants
of those countries who fought against
England in the Anglo-Boer war from
1899 to 1902.
Four years after this war the Trans-
vaal and Orange provinces were
granted responsible government. In
1910 the unification of the four prov-
inces took place. From then the new
and real South African nation dates.
The first Union parliament had a ma-
jority of Boer members and General
Louis Botha, who fought, against the
British, became the first prime min-
ister. The government has been in
the hands of the Boers ever since and
most of them think that they have lost
little if anything by coming under Brit-
ish rule.
South Africa today is in the peculiar
position of having two capitals, Cape
Town being the legislative capital, and
Pretona the administrative capital.
There are also two official languages,
English and Dutch. Though this is a
convenience for the mixed population,
it is a hindrance to the civil service
and costly to the government. There
are 7,000,000 people in South Africa,
1,300,000 being whites. Johannesburg
is the largest city with a population of
160,000. Differences purely political
threaten to disrupt the new nation, but
generally Briton and Boer are proud
to be South Africans.
