Noise Analyzer Proves
That Sounds i ' May Vary .
Greatly in Amplitude
"How noisy is noise?" Most peo
ple would dismiss this as another fool
ish conundrum, but not Prof. Charles
L. Kinsloe, head of the department
of electrical engineering. He would
bring forth his "noise analyzer" and
produce an answer correct to several
decimal places. •
The machine, which was received
recently as a gift to the department
from a large electrical equipment
company, is used fdr measuring the
intensity of any vibration. It is used
primarily for detecting the amount of
vibration on communication circuits.
Another, use for the apparatus is
in making an estimate of the amount
of noise connected with machinery to
be bought on contract. By its use
the total amount of noise caused by
all the electrical equipment installed
in a hotel could be calculated, Profes
sor Kinsloe'.says. •
Another recent gift to the depart
ment is an apParatus which provides
the same conditions found on a tele
phone line 200 miles in length. 'By
means of the resistances, inductances,
and capacities produced by the ma
chine, studenti are able to learn what
factors Would enter into the constrOc
tion of an actual line .

STUDENT LEAGUE DENIES
I -OFFER OF SCHOLARSHIP
National Body Brands Announcements
As Fraudulent Mail Scheme
New York, (N.S.F.A.)—In a state
ment issued recently from its offices
at 111 West 14th Street, the National
Student League labelled as fraudulent
an announcement regarding scholar
ship% sent out recently from Wash
ington, presumably under• its name.
The statement reads: "The . District
of Columbia police have called to the
attention of the National Students
League the fact that 'scholarships' to
a 'National Student League School'
are being offered there, presumably
under the auspices of the - National.
Student League, New York City. Five
hundred announcements were sent to
Deans of various American univer
sities, asking them to post the an
nouncements on their bulletin boards.
The Washington Post Office has dis
covered that this 'is a fraud and has
detained one individual who admits
having originated and undertaken the
scheme and who has no connections
whatsoever with this organization.
"The National. Student League,
which is an organization of college
and high school students throughout
the country, hereby declares that it
never organized such a school in
Washington, never offered su c
scholarships, and labels this a racket
and the use of the mails to defraud.
We are requesting the National Stu
, dent Federation Press Service to re
pease a statement to this effect to
every' college newspaper in the
'country. o The National. Student League
hsks all people who have been taken
in by this bcgus 'school' to refuse to
have anything to do with it." Several
of the • announcements referred to
were received here and posted. -
