TEree. of the east's high-powered adio stations, linked by special tele- hone lines, will broadcast simul- ancously tonight the second outdoor oncert of the United States Marine 1d at the Sylvan Theater, south f the Washington Manument. WCAP Fill “pick up” the concert with fts emote control apparatus, and while roadcasting it to the Washington udience, will send it to WEAF In Yew York, and WMAF in South artmouth, Mass. More than 2,000,- 00 radjo enthusiasts are expected 0 hear the concert. It had been planned to have these nree stations broadcast the first out- oor concert the season by the farine Band last Monday night. but, he proceedings at the Democratic ational conventlon interfered.

A Set for the Home or the Vacation : Small Down Payment ~ The New 2-tube Wonder ozor-(u Loud 8 er on Local RADIO TO FEATURE ENTIRE CAMPAIGN Speoches of Candidates and Final Returns on Election Day Will Be on the Air. BY CARL H. BUTMAN. Well—"it ing,” but there is sure to be a lot of that before the polis close November 4, and much of the shouting will be over the radio broadcasting circuits of the country. With the broadcasting of the pe- litical conventions_this year, a new slogan was born: It no longer holds “That he who runs may read,” but rather, “Heswho listens in may hear.” Blase politiclans, and even those who still believe something new is posey ble, were astounded at the interest displayed in broadcasts which caried to every city and farm the very words of the nominators and seconders, the votes of delegations- and the sten-' torian tones of the chairmen. The. radio listeners were on the inside for the first time. Through them the pub- Hc at large had its ear to the air. Newspapers were aided in their stories and ediforials through radio. Some carried ‘a daily ringside, ar round-by-round resume of the ses- sions. Many' people read these. run- ning acéounts which were not dis- similar to the inning-by-inning base ball storlu‘llound on the sport pages. At the fihal session of the Demo- cratic convention in New Yark lagt week a resolution was passed thank- Ing the twenty broadcasting stations and-the Bell ‘system, together with their associates; for service rendered the convention and the publi¢ throughbut fifteen days and nights of broadcasting.. The conventlon so phrased the resoltuion as to include the thanks of the fans themselves, knowing the interest and apprecta- tion In that ‘quarter. Before the campaigns are fully launched we shall see that campaign managers have laid plans for broad- casting the speeches of their candi- dates and auxiliary speakers wher- ever arrangements can be made with broadcasting stations, and dgain we :-m tune in to hear what we shall ear. o aiiy Every fan in the country, will also prepare to listen in_when ‘the pojis Lclone November 4. The returns will be gathered directly from precinets in ‘all states. It is foreseen that broadcasters will co-operate with local papers or precinct headquarters and election boards 80 as to carry minute-by-minute bulletins on re- turns. Those who do not possess sets of their own will join the crowds in front of newspaper offices, where loud speakers will be active.

AGENTS IN BIG RESTAURANT RAID Four Arrested, Charged With Dis- orderly Conduct—Will Bring Charges in U. 8. Court. - By the Associated Press. Soe NEW ORLEANS, July 14.—Four federal prohibition 'agents, including Max Overpeck, divisional chief, were arrested by police early yesterday, when they ralded a fashionable res- taurant at West End, on Laky, Pont- chartrain, while the place was ¢rowd- ed_with guests. The raiders, after being locked in the tenth precinct station for a short time, were paroled. They were or- dered to appear in police court and answer 'charges of disturbing the peace and disorderly conduct. In additlon to Overpeck, they were Lake Holland, Lauren R. Collins-and I. J. Hoyt. q i 5 Uverpeck stated the officers mak- ing the arrest would be charged in United States court with interféring with federal oficers while in the dis- charge’ of their duties. . Stories Difter Widely. Widely divergent storied were told by the agents and the police. The agents reported they found liguor in thé possession of several guests and caused the arrest of two persons. The police report of the rald sald no liquor was found in the restaurant. The arrests of the agents were ‘made, the police report stated, on the advice of Thomas V. Cravens, assist- ant district attorney, when the raid- ers, leaping through windows and crushing down a door of the restau- rant, threw the guests into a panic. Many leading business men of New Orleans occupled tables at the time of the raid. Overpeck declared he and his as- sistants were taken into custody after the police had refused to assist them in stopping what believed to be violations of the law and after the guests had tried to arrest two of the policemen for interfering with the work of the prohibition force.

Reproduction Prehidited dvantages of Uniag =~ Stage of There has been an ever-increasing tendency in the radio field to met away from the troublesome qualities ve receivers and substi- tute_for them some type of receiver which, while giving the same. results In distance and volume obtsined with regeneratie recetvers, at the sime time eliminates the squealing inter- ference caused by the regenerative receivers. ! To expect 'to get the same results trom a ' non-regenerative receiver having the same number of tubes as the regenerative receiver is out of the question, because the regenera- give recefver’ makes use of the prin- iple of radio frequency amplification in-the first tube, causing the tube ‘to act not only as a detector, but also as an amplifier by bolstering up the weak received signal by a strong local oscillation produced by the oscillator, action of the tube. The solution-to the problem of get- ting the same distance and volume :| lies in the use of some form of radio frequency amplification. The -use of another tube forming one stage of radio frequency amplification makes up for 1 of the regenerative featuré; makes the set easier to con- trol; gives better and clearer repro- duction, and last, but not least, elimi- nates the troublesome squeaiing in your neighbor’s set, which usually resuits from ‘the use of a radiating regenerative receiver. - Added Expense Small. Before the {ntroduction of the low- current consumption tubes the addi- tion of another tube was not desir- able because of the extra drain im- posed on the filament battery. Now, however, this point is of minor im- portance because the extra current consumed by another tube is very amall and can almost be neglected. The first-cost of the apparatus is slightly more than that required for a simple regenerative set, but the 8dded expense is. small when com- pared with the advantages obtained. Fixed transformers, designed to cover a wide band of wave lengths to permit reception on all the wave lengths used in broadcasting. can be used to couple the radio frequency mtage with the detector. This type of transformer coupling, however, will not give as good results as are ob- tained with some form of tuned cir- cuit transformer. here are now many forms of tuncd circult transformers which will give very good results and are to be preferred to the fixed or untuned type of transformers. In one type, the vario transformers, a double cable is wound on the stator and rotor of a miniature variometer. The cable is ‘wound just as a single wire would be wound,” but instead of having two ends, as would be the case when a SENSES single’ wire is used,’ four ends gre obtained, two for each wire. Since these two wires are insulated from each other they form the two wind- ings of a transformer the constants of whose windings can be varied simultaneously by turning the rotor through its range. Standard Variometer Used. Tn another form s standard vari- ometer {s used. The variometer winding forms one windipg of the transformer. The other: winding is obtained by winding another cofl over the stator winding of the vari- ometer. Since the coupling between the extra winding and the stator winding is very close, the tuning of both circuits is obtained by the move- ment of the variometer rotor. Any of these types of tuned radio frequency transformers or couplers can be used in the four-tube set using a single stage of tuned radio frequency amplification, which I will begin to describe tomorrow. Army Station Program. A varied program of music and talks will be broadcast by ATS, the 5th Field Artillery station at Fort Bragg, N.
