he said, are similar to the motion
of water that is disturbed by an
object that falls into it. A wav.
motion "may be defined as a stress
applied to one point in an elastic
medium and transmitted from that
point to another without any permanent displacement of the medium itself in the direction in
which the stress is transmitted." It
is probable that "fading" of signals is caused by the unequal reinforcement of waves that reflect
from the Kennelley Heaviside

surface of the earth that is continually varying its height.

Miss Erikson is especially interested in topping off the fall season with the soccer teams. A num-(

will meet again Tuesday, November

spilled the Hurricanes in a startling
upset to the tune of 21 to 18. True
it is that Major-General Summer-
all was the guest of honor as were
several hundred students of Miami
High School but it isn't necessary
for the hosts to drop a game to
entertain the visitors.
Buck started his second team
and the lads played great ball. They
kept the Hurricanes on the long
end of the score until late in the
third quarter when Bock made a
wholesale substitution. Neither
team scored during the first period
but Miami drew first blood in the
second quarter when Gabby Bru
nett ambled some IS yards for the
first score. The Miami team
failed to score their extra points
and therein was the reason for
Miami's defeat. Another score
soon followed when Audie Mills
took a pass from O'Brien to score
another touchdown. A pass, Williams to Ziegler took the ball to
Miami's two-yard line from where
stickers   have   already   appeared, Williams smashed over for Elon's
bearing the slogan, "Coming U. of
M. Glee Club.   A   Cloudburst   of
Melody."
The members will be attired ii
tuxedoes at all appearances. Director "Aye" Farr announced.
The following men, with a few
changes, will be with the club:
Moe Albert, Gene Cohn, Guy
Mitchell, 3. Harold Matteson, Ron
Willy, Fay Swisher, Charles English, Jack Thompson, Charles Kirk-

University Symphony to
Aid During Schubert Week
The University of Miami Symphony Orchestra will be assisted by
the Aeolian Chorus, Bertha Foster,
director, in its concert which is to
be given Sunday afternoon, November 26, at the Miami High
School auditorium.
The program for this first concert of the 1928-29 season of the
Symphony Orchestra, Arnold Volpe, conductor, will include only
compositions by Schubert, in commemoration of the one hundredth
anniversary of his death. November 19 to 25 has been designated
as Schubert week. During those
days

point when Williams tossed to

It was a different team that took
the field the second half. Elon
was out for blood. The Elon team
braced up and when they loomed
dangerous Buck yanked his
entire team out with the exception
of O'Brien. The first team held
like a stone wall and Miami taking
the ball in Eton's territory marched
to another score which O'Brien took
over. And so ended the third quarter with Miami leading 19 to 7.
But in the fourth quarter things
started to happen. Ziegler was
stopping everybody coming his
way. It wasn't long till the same
Ziegler intercepted a pass and
raced by Wignall for the score.
Walker scored the extra point. And
the same Walker blocked Wignall'*
punt a short time later behind the
Hurricane's goal line whkh he recovered. Walker again kicked the
extra point to end the days scoring.
