No team ever has dominated the league like this season's Wheaties who have rolled to 19 victories in 20 games. Nor are there many sports scribes so qualified to write about the Wheaties as HI... (Bran- don Daily Sun) Crawford, who has been watching whcnt city clubs in action for a good many seasons. Said Crawford in one recent column: "This year the Wheat Kings can take care of themselves against any kind of going. They have weight to toss around, and no team can liifford to take lhfim cheaply." In another column, Crawford related: “Coach Bill MacKenzle is get- ting the most out of his Plow!!- Tliey rarely make e. second mis- take or ii bed move. The Wheat Kings are eager tq learn and their pattern plays have been worked out. with good effect. _ "The defence is covering up well and it is a rare occasion when a rival puck carrier gets it out oi position. Each men has his pat- roling area and e job to do. And with the forwards backcliecking the way they do, goals against. the Brandon club must come the hard way." Tony (Winnipeg Tribune) Allnn is another writer high on the Wheat Kings.

The inventor, a television en- rziiieer, intends to build e_ tele- vision apparatus, the rfllilt 0! years of work, into a diving bail iviiich will be strong enough to resist immense water pressure and to descend 15,000 feet under the surface of the sea. If this experlment- in "bethy- vision" is successful, it will be pOSSIbIe to carry out deUp-sea un- derwatcr exploration at a depth never before thought possible- Von Seiiulz' apparatus is differ- ent frcsn that designed by Pro- fessor Picrard. All observation, surveys and other work will be carried out by technical moans and operated at ioni: ranco on beard the accomp- nngain: ship. Von Schulz proposes to display his underwater tele- vision apparatus at an exhibition in New York in April. The inventor worked at first in coniunirtion with the Hamburg Society of Television Research. iivlicn his laboratory in Hamburg was bnznbcd out in the last year of tiie viral", he moved to Cuxliaven wvhere lie resumed his research. "After Professor Piccard had his misfortune with his deep-sea apparatus and following military rrnvernmcnfs permission for Ger- mans to engage in television," von Schulz said. “I felt it was time for mo to bring my rims bcfcre the public. “I have adopted n different me- thod from that of Professor Pic- varrl nnd shall send no one to risk hi5 life in the unknown dangers of the great ocean depths. All necessary observations and scient- ifie work rnn he controlled from llio accompanying mother ship." The (living bell will be about six feet in diamrter and will with- stand the immense water pres- sin-c. On its unrleizddc the diving ball is cquippcti with a row of search- lllzlits, Tile lens‘ of the television zipparaius is situated is the mid- <lir~ of the (living ball. Amona the apparatus with which it will he equipped is a stroll: undervrnter cutter for op- oiling the sides of wrecks lying drop under tlii- lcvcl nf the sea. A ucwerfui magnet will enable ob- jects to be picked 11f) and rzrnov- ed. The undciuvzitor eye cf the tel- evision nppflrntlls will be able to which the progress of everything that is dour nnd those sitting at. the controls in titr- mother ship will he able to follow everything, Von Schulz said his apparatus would pi-rdilvo ultrn light waves and \illl';\ sound iravos. By means of viccirIcally-niiimnted quartz, tilira short iiizlii. waves will ,be "zivcn out and these will be iliroim back from objects under- ilie "writer or on the (xterm floor, By moans o-f niriqniiirrs nnd c-"n- vvrivrs the objects seen by the apparatus will be trriilscnittcd to tho ship. lierr von Schulz explained that while vision by normal llqht was not more ilinn 30 feet widcrwatc-r, with his apparatus lit‘ had bcen nbli- in sec as far as 150 feet and 110 lirlicved iliRt. lie could incrcnse that distance to 100 yards.
