Consequently the wave- front is slued around a bit and the direction of the ray is slightly altered. If now light waves have difficulty getting past the sun we should expect that they would experience like difficulty getting away from the sun. They would be SIR OLIVER LODGE'S OPINION 77 slowed up a bit by its gravitational pullback. The fre- quency would be reduced ; the interval of time between wave-crests lengthened. This means, in the case of sound, lowering the pitch. Touch your finger to t...he turntable of your phonograph and you flat the tone. In the case of light, it means change of color toward the red. This effect, according to Einstein, should be, but has not been, observed. "If Einstein's third prediction is verified/' saya Sir Oliver Lodge, " Einstein's theory will dominate all higher physics and the next generation of mathemati- cal physicists will have a terrible time of it. For uni- versity courses and for all practical purposes we shall have the Galilean and Newtonian dynamics but they will reign as a limited monarchy and sooner or later the Einstein physics cannot fail to influence every in- telligent man.
