Popov's dlaim ta, priority, Dr. Charies Susskind notes in the Proceeding-s of the Institute of Radio Engjineers, rests on a demi- onstration the Ruissian .conducted in MVay 1895. it showed that an electric bell can be miado ta ring îf an electric spark is discharged iiab.Alth-ough Popov later kpplied this idea ta a wiroless apparatus, hie did fat then pub- lish aythn ore than the hope it îght somneday be used to transmnit me' .ssages. Marconi was fi-st ta poublish- a descriptioný of his wi-eless; experimients - by being fi-st to apply for a patent in Juno 1896. "It is nat my intention ta de- biank Ppv" Susskind said.

Dance was wor- ried. Ho was a veteran o!' the Plying Squad, with mai-e than 100jugs commuendations ta his credlit. But t 'hat day bis work seeýmed tao have came unstuck. The-re hiad been another smash- andct-gi-ab in -the early boums o! the morningl. The repurt was o n his desk. The samne technique ho now knew vby7 heart. A fast car with' false plates, a neat job, close tiingiii, and t hon a change toa n- o1thi- ,carf. It was the technique invented by,, a mian knaw,,ýn ta the Squad as Aussie Donny. Darte knew b, is real niame, DnyDelaqnoy, but hadn't been able ta prove bhis guilt. In fact, hoe knew a great dleal about Aus- sie Denny's gang whose borne, toriitai-y was in South London. it included Taîl Al ec. who used ta turn up at the scene of a pr-- posod smash-and-grabD in conta- ble's uniformn, and ].-ep watch for thle gang. The getuay driver was Fair Eddie, who would have beenaa mo to-ra cing ace if ho co uld have k-ept straight. They ail had nierve, but Aus- sie Denny hiad nerve plus brains. Ho w,,as both scbemier and leade-r, a powerful com-bination in the underwori,. Aussie flonny was not only hs, first car bandit ta use relays a! cars on a job, he wasi the first organizer ta hold rehearsals, Ho would take bis car cx'ew out into thfie country for a trial 1check, and Faim Eddie had bis ;chance to prova lie had nat lost 1his AkIlI 'n dodging obstacles,, wheni fiat out, or in turning a.nd reversing in a few foot without stalling. For only wrhen the jtough Austratian wýas satisfied at rehearsal was the job definitely on.'

To try 'ta find out, microbioilogist Rartorn McKirêney peered through a microscope et a tiny, single celled amoeba during brief periods, of weighttessness ttained by on airplane flying a speciat trujectory. Above, the Chanice Vought Astronauttcs scientist straddles the. alurium aï-d foom rubber oppa- ratus which held the, micr-oscope os it f foots inside th* plioi'x cabin. Result: Na change in the. amoeba'a behavior. TICKET COLLECTOR - Mrs. Delores Cipparone, 32, mnight have' set some kind of record in Philadeiphia, Pa., where she collected more than 180 traf- fic tickets. A judge f ined the1 attractive blonde $1,164. had shown a cdean paix, of heel, ta any pursit. Inspector, Dance was convinced this was the hall- mark of Aussie Denny, as was the raid on the furrier's in Mr timier Street. On that occasion a bandiLt car was backed into, the furrier's: window, and ini seconds,,$!5,00 worth of fui-s were collected. The rnost expensive coat wvas firmly secured ta its stand. , hich was n femiale dumnmy. Not wiilling ta surreniderIlhe prize item in the grab, for ready ta waste timre and ruin a tight schedule, the bandit leader- de- cidled ta take the coat--stili aqt- tached ta the plaster figýure. Instantlýy the bandit car ,vas racing away, spraying, the road with splinters of glass, But one of the bandits htad gashe-d his leg on a jagged spike of glass in the broken wý,indowv. Hec was bleeding rapidly, and it was his )lood trail that a Fly- ing Squad car, sumiinoned after burgiar alarms had sounded, pioked up and f ollowed. With little traffic on the road.s, th,- bandit car wscson spotteýd, and thie police driver began ta overhau.l the bandit in a grim- chase. There canj be no do~Ubt the bandlit car would have been rarn- mecl if the leader had not beeni doing some quicek thinking The Flyinig Squad car, 7wag-s dwigstili dloser when th e occupants wereaýppa4lle-d ti see the body of a îîaked womnan fal fi-r the speeding bandit car. At least, it appeaýred ta be a naked wom-an, and she fell right in their path. The police driver stood on his brakes, swerved, and issed the nude figure by inches. The po- El car came ta a shudderingý hait with a smiell of burning- rubber, and the Squad mnen stum- bled out ta help) the -rone wo- mfan. 'They've tricked us!" There were a f ew, mocre heart- feit commnents as; the Squad men stared at 1h.E furrier'.% dumm-y. Already the bandit car had vanished, andI the trail of looýd eýndetI 100 yards farther on.

He had m-ade exteýnsive inquir- les, ïmd somi-eonie had becomeri scared. As a result, a mysteris phono cail was made ta the Yard, writes Leonard Gribble ini "Tit- Bits". The caller _gave no nameý, but mentionred a rendezvous at Black- fiai-s Undergrouind. Aussie was ta meet anothýer xnan there at a certain tin-e ta sýeli some fui-s. It could have been a hoax, but Darce took up thIe calne le and Gree(_no sýpo)ttd Aussi-e when hoe drove up in a lrge sedan car with -a passenger.

As hoe did sa, the car thrust forward, and the swingîng door bruished Dance aside, WVith brakes squealing the car suid ta) a stop inches fi-nu the low w ail. The driver sprang out, shnkîng imself free of bis over- coat- as ho did o and bowler and spectacles wont spinning.

Aussie Dennywa now defini- tely on the i-un. Inspector Dance picked uïp his mnan's t-ail once more în Have, but Aussie Denny again sbook off pursuit. Finally, Dance concentratedi his efforts on a relative. It was this relative who unsuspjectinigly led the FlyingtSquad ta a house in Cambei-well,' Sout h London. This timo the daring car ban- dit's luck was out. Ho was in bed and sleeping when the Fly- inig Squnad camne into his roam., -Ho sat up, i-ubbing, the slceop from his eyose, and with the odds so heavîly against hlm inade no atteînpt at anothei' getaway. Ho g-rinnod at thec-unismiling, Flying Squad men, ta whom s.le-p !had becomre a stranger, "Who gets the moedal for this" hoe asked. The answer camne inter that year, 1936, in the Central Cim- mnal Court, ,whc-n A Dance was commended for his part in the Invest 'igation and capture, and the man in the dock receîved thiree yoai-s' penal servitude.
