In 1934, J. C. WOOLEY conceived idea that structure could be built of concrete, without using forms, to lower water from one elevation to another; structure is named "thin-section concrete flume"; in 1934 first of these flumes was built on one of Missouri University's experimental farms near Columbia; 31 of structures were built under demonstration in Illinois in 6 yr; only one has partially failed; design of structure; constructional details.
