arine Band Concert From Sylvan Theater to Be First Number. Five first class attractions are sched- wled on the program tonight of ‘WCAP. Starting with the outdoor concert of the United States Marine Band at the Sylvan Theater, the pro- gram will last for two and one-half hours, closing with popular selections by the Mohawk Male Quartet. The band concert—as well as the Fubsequent feature—the weekly talk on the “American Government” by Frederick J. Haskin—will be broad- rast jointly by WEAF in New York and WMAF in South Dartmouth, Mass., linked by a special long_dlst- Pnce telephone circuit with WCAP. Grand scenes from Verdi's beautiful *I1 Trovatore” and the Tone Picture of “Feuersnot” by Strauss, are the featured numbers. Haskin On Air at o P.M. Mr. Haskin will g0 on the air for his talk at 9 o'clock, and will be followed by a recital by George Finckel, violincellist. The Mohawk Male Quartet, which scored a big hit with the radio au- dience in its Initial appearance be- fore the microphone this Summer, will render its program from 9:40 to 10 o'clock. The quartet is composed of Earl F. Gordon, first tenor; ¥rank A. Goebel, second tenor and man- ager; Raymond Towers, baritone; Clarence Johnson. bass, and Bernice Dorsey, accompanist. A piano recital by Ernest Fernald and the weekly book review under the auspices of the League of Ameri- can Pen Women are the leading fea- tures of the program this afternoon of WRC. The book review will be on Jacob Wassermann's “Gold.” 1t will be reviewed by Mrs. Miiton Reed. Mrs. Amos Fries also will review “Bullders of the American Nation,” by Nicholas Butler. Eleanor Gunn's fashion develop- ments will open the program at 3 v'clock. A song recital by Mae Heck- er will follow. A talk on current events, the code practice instruction, Peggy Albion's children’s hour and the announcement of base ball scores complete the program.

WISCASSET. Me, September 8.— On several different occasions the people of this'little community have witnessed the arrival of Capt. Donald B. MacMillan from his dangerous missions in the Arctic with a deep personal interest in the success of the undertakings. While huge throngs of visitors from far and near, moved by feelings of curiosity or a sense of novelty, have been present at the local dock to see MacMillan step ashore, the natives of this town and those of Freeport, MacMillan's birthplace, have been on hand for the purpose of welcoming an old friend. This month, probably about the 20th, these Maine folk, including several of the real old-timers, who have known the explorer since he was a boy, will again turn out to show the voyager that Maine has lost none of its hospitality in the 15 months that have passed since the Bowdoln disappeared from view. However, there will be a big differ- ence this time. Much of the worry that has accompanied his previous expeditions will have disappeared and the homecoming will be one of 100 peF cent joy, for radio will bring advance tidings of conditions on board long bhefore the ship's masts appear in sight of the landing. Much Less to Tell, There will be much less to tell when the crew piles ashore, for radio, like the reliable messenger it is, will have flashed the goods news, including personal geetings from those on board to relatives at home, while the ship is vet off Labrador. By speclal arrangement of the Amer- ican Radio Relay league, the ama- dled all ters of the A. R. R.

A schedule will then | be ararnged for regular radio munication at specified hours. And then from the cabin, where the crew has been con- fined for long months of utter dark- ness, will come through the medium of radio the thrilling station’s call. RADIO’S BEST OFFERINGS TONIGHT.

Recent messages have in- formed a watchful world that the ‘rew have come through unscathed, but there are, of course, many in- timate accounts of happenings that will be awaited with interest. Will Deseribe Voyage. It is confidently expected that in these radio dispatches Capt. Mac- Millan will describe the results of the scientific investigations which were his main reasons for making the trip. He may tell about his ob- servations of glaclers, which he said at one time were moving southward, threatening another ice age. A num- ber of scicntists are awaiting with interest his report on the effects of electricity and terres- tial magnetism. Whatever may be the import of these things to the scientific world, Capt. MacMillan, with the help of Donald Mix, the radio operator se- lected by the American Radio Relay v accomplished one feat v t importance. He has proven to every one the value of radio as a practical aid to ex- plorers. He has demonstrated its importance as a pyschological relief to men who must be cut off from as- sociation with their fellows and its efficiency as a direct means of con- tact with civilization. Never again will an explorer, wher- ever he may be bound, feel that for the duration of the journey contact with home is lost. LIFTS BAN ON RADIO. Poland lifted the ban on radio. Transmitting lie s will soon be i sued for broad: ting by scient 3 educational and manufacturing or- ganizations and regulations covering reception will probably be similar to those of France, according to ad- vices reaching the Department of Commerce. The new law which went into effect i ly stimulate the development of radio in Poland especially among the general public. The government will probably adopt measures for the pro- motion of home industry, tition .with Americd radio goods will severe. .

Reproduction Prohibited. —e Broadcast Transmission and Reception. It is rather difficult for the lay mind to conceive or understand the phenomena underlying the transmi: sion and.reception of electrical waves, and as a matter of fact even the most profound scientific minds of today can merely theorize as to what ac- tually takes place. But just as it is possible for the man in the street to know something about electricity and the action of electrical currents even though he does not know what electricity is or the various theories advanced garding it, s0 also he can unders in a general way what takes place in radio circuits and the phenomena which takes place when radio waves are generated and transmitted from one station or circuit and received t another station by another circuit, without the necessity of delving into theories which require a lifetime of study. Most fans know that if two circuits are placed close ot each other and an alternating current is passed through one circuit a current can be made to flow in the other circuit by the The higher the frequency alternation of the cur- rent the more marked is this prop- erty of transmitting energy from one circuft to the other. The mag- netic field produced by the action of the alternating cprrent in the first circuit can be considered as cons ing of two elements or components the one being known as the “induc- tion field,” while the other is known as the “radiation” field. Induction Field Important. The induction field plays a very portant part in the operation of cir- | cuits which are very close to each other, such as in transformers, but its effects diminish to a very consider- able extent as the distance is in- crea The intensity of the effects produc- ed by the induction field obtained by a flow of an alternating current in a close circuit on another circuit are inverscly proportional to the cube of the distance from the energizing eir- cuit. In other words the effects pro- duced in a circuit 100 miles away would be one-millionth (1-1,000,000) of that produced in the same circu placed only one mile away from energizing circuit. While it is possible, therefore, to make use of the induction method of signalling over short dis- cannot be used effective- ver any considerable distance frequencies employed to best advanatge for signaling, using the induction field, run from 300 to 3,000 cycles per second. At the lower frequencies the radiation field is so 1 as to be negligible, but at the higher frequencies the radiation field is the more important of the two. Radiation Field Strength. The strength of the radiation field due to the flow of an alternating current in the energizing circuit at a tain distance from the circuit is directly proportional to the frequency when the ordinary type of antenna d. An idea of the con- siderable rence in the strength of the ficld at a certain distance from the energizing circuit can be gained hat the radiation field 3 (200 meters) would times stronger than that en a 60-cycle alternating current is used. In radio communication, the induc- tion field plays a very minor, while the radiation field plays a very im- portant part. Since the effects are more marked higher frequencies, it is ry to use very high frequency ts to obtain successful com- over considerable dis- ave changed, in the opinion Eliza G. Rhodes, who at 81 enjoved her first air flight at this year's Iowa state fair. When attended the first Iowa fair, he vears ago, a ride in an ox-cart provided her only thrill.
