The last five went to Australia and we are working on a rush order of ten more sets for the Navy. "One problem that has attracted a good deal of popular attention was started by Dr. Morton C. Kahn '16 of the Department of Public Health and Preventive Medicine, aided by the Signal Corps of the Army. They amplified the inaudible mating calls of mosquitoes 100 million times until they became audible to the human ear. Recording these horrid squeaks and twitters on discs, they found that the female call would attract males from a considerable distance and we hope that this may lead to their de- struction. Curiously enough, the tre- mendous amplification in sound did not deafen the mosquitoes.
