We then ceased trying this experiment. There was no evidence
that the rotation was due to intelligence. I then called for
some card boards about 12 inches long and 8 inches wide to stand
them up in front of the cylinder and behind it in order to shut
. off air currents from breathing in front of it and from behind it.
I then sat down and held my hands on each side of the cylinder.
The upper edge of the card board was so high that all my breathing,
which I managed to make very light, was below it and
could not possibly affect the cylinder. The card boards were
stood up against books to support them. I held my hands inside
the space as near the cylinder as the edges of the card board
would permit. The following were the results, announced by
Mr. S., as I could not see the cylinder.
