14 BARNSLEYISHERD OF RADOANATEURS Hartford Youth Has Made Fame by Constant Touch With Polar Party. Bpecial Dispatch to The 8t HARTFORD, Conn., November 13.— Jack Barnsley, radio hero of the hour! Jack Barnsley, amateur operator, has solved mysterles of Arctic air communication and has established virtually permanent communication, despite adverse conditions, with the schooner ,Bowdoin, frozen in eleven degrees from the north pole. Jack Barnsley, more than any other radlo amateur in America, has helped to prove the success of the experiment undertuken by Dr. Donald B. MacMil- lan, radio correspondent of The Star and other papers, and for the first time the news of the world has Uroken an explorer's tedlum of months-long night, reaching him al- most as swiftly as it is carried by newspapers to the men snug in home or office. From the Bowdoin, where a hand- ful of men huddle around the stove in & cramped galley, messages of cheer > come to members of thelr fami- d by Barns- to points across continent from his station. work of Bar »onald Mix. op orth in talking t WNP— Bowdoin— ius bioughf joy to officials of the Ameort Redio Relay League, whose hendquartersare in Hartford. These officials worked out the details of the plan for the Arctic experiment. ‘Work Has Big Mea: What Barnsl ork means to MacMillan and his party is shown by sent from the Bowdoi which lies in Refuge Harbor, Green- latitude 78.30 north, longitude west: the d, 30 -erest thanks from my- interest in our your very valuable help cages. Your loyalty w zolten upon our return from the Arctie.” It is largely due to Barnsley that millions In America and elsewhere, closely watching the Arctic radio ex- periment have been satisfled as to the safety of MacMillan and his men. Although other amateurs have suc- ceeded in picking up partial mes- sages from wireless north pole, Tarnsley’s station has been for many weeks the only satisfactory commu- nicating medium. His Station Well Placed. His station is pec placed for north pole reception, being situated at the western terminus of the Canadian Natlonal Railways, 500 miles north of Vancouver and 100 miles south of Ketchikan, Alaska. It may be considered strange tha more northernly amateurs in Alaska have not been as Successful as Jiarnsley, but the explanation prob- ably lles in the fact that the latter's radio equipment is of the finest and oqually as good in its construction as some of the best transoceanic amateur stations in the United States. ‘When Barnsley became a student of the radio game in 1910 there were very few amateurs and text books on the subject were ag Scarce as cer- tain varietles of vacuum tubes were a vear ago. In those days one could not_install & radio station by the imple method of calling on the near- dealer and carrying a package liome—instead, the amateur, after reading up on the subject, used any stray parts at hand. First Set Unlque, Barnsley's first radio apparatus was a queerly constructed homemade affair that would be the laughing- stock of the most uninitiated of present-day radio fans. He wag high- v delighted over the good fortune that brought him a Bell telephone receiver, a dry batter. a couple of carbons and a “hatpin,” and no one was more surprised than himself when the set showed & capacity for reception. He made his coll from some stray wire, headphones from the single receiver, a detector from the carbons. and the steel needle. sharpened to a fine point, for the riovable part. A few years later and Barnsley wa working for the Marconi Company as wireless operator on coastwise #teamers and finally on the liner Em- yress of Russia, running to Japan, China and Manila. A recruiting sign for the royal air force attracted his attention in 1917 and there followed « “hitch” as instructor in the army.
