Dr. Albert Abraham Michelson, Distinguished Service Professor of Physics at the University of Chicago, and in 1907 winner of the Nobel Prize, has returned from his laboratory at Mt. Wilson, Calif., where he has been trying to carry on his experiments on the speed of light. Because of poor light conditions, Prof. Michelson has been compelled to postpone his experiment which were to test the Einstein theory. He will probably spend the coming quarter at the University in preparation for the renewal of these experiments when Dr. Einstein visits America this Spring.
