Martin of Cherrydale, Va., appearing in the Radio Queery column of The Evening Star Saturday, criticizing Graham MacNamee on his broadcast- ing of the world series, in my opinion this is very unjust, as I think nearly every one will agree with me that the United States might have been searched over for a man to give the description of those plays, and a fairer-minded man would not have | been found It is true he gave praise to Lind- strom, but it was deserved, as_was the beautiful tributes he paid to Wal- ter Johnson at the opening game as well as the closing, and the deserved praise given to all the others of the Nationals. When a corporation like the Ameri- can Telephone and Telegraph Com- pany spends thousands of dollars to serve these events to the public with- out cost it occurs to the writer that it is certainly not up to the public to criticize a fair-minded man like our good friend, Graham MacNamee. .

Before going on with the construc- tional features I am going to explain the characteristics of various types of representative aerlals and give the | good and bad points of each. Figl The most common type of aerial fn- stallation is that shown in diagram | form in Fig. 1. In this type a single wire is stretched between two sup- | ports and the connection to the set is taken from one end of the wire. The aerial proper is insulated from its supports by the aerial insulators A and B. The horizontal portion CD is known as the “flat top” of the aerial, while the vertical portion CE., which | gaes down to the aerial post of the set, known as the “lead-in®" The aerial kept clear of its supports by the support wires FG and HI. Because of its resemblance to an inverted letter “L” this type of aerial is known as the “inverted L" type of | aerial. In another type of aerial common- Iy used a wire is stretched between two supports and the lead-in is taken {from the midpoint.

Bach wire is insulated from the supporting pole and from the points of support at the base. The wires are connected together at the top as shown, and the lead-in wire is connected with the wire whieh con- nects the individual wires at the top. "It the aerial wires ‘are properly spaced around the poles, they not only act as the aerial wires but also serve 'as the guy wires to keep the pole erect.

SAYS HOOVER PAVED BIG YEAR FOR RADIO Delegate Declares Secretary Cleared Atmosphere at Recent Conference. NEW YORK, October 13.—Tre- mendous advances in the radio art may be expected in the coming year because of the policies laid down by Secretary of Commerce Herbert Hoover at the third radio conference in Washington. Such is the predic- tion of C. W. Hough, who attended the conference as a representative of the group interested in wired radlo. “Mr. Hoover faced an exceedingly difficult situation,” said Mr. Hough, who is the president of Wired Radio. Inc. “One group of delegates advo- cated superpower stations. Another group favored short wave transmis- sion and rebroadcasting. Another group was ready to fight for a con- tinuance of the present method of having many low-power stations in- stead of a few big ones. And for every advocate of every plan there seemed to be a dozen opponents. “Into this mass of conflicting ideas and conflicting idealists stepped Mr. Hoover. Nobody flustered him No- body got him excited. Not once did he lose sight of the fact that, after al the Interests of the millions of listen- ers comes ahead of everything else. His perfectly organized, smooth run- ning conference machinery quickly brought order out of chaos. As a re- sult, America is going to see tre- mendous advances in the transmis- sion and reception of radio programs during tke coming year. — “In effect, the conference came around to Mr. Hoover's point of view that every plan of merit is to be given a thorough trial. Practice, not theory, 18 to be the deciding factor as to the future development of broad- casting. This is as it should be, for no man today can tell with scientific exactness just what plans will prove to be the best from the listeners’ viewpolnt.” You Are Invited to Visit Our Uptown SALES AND SERVICE STATION at 715-17 17th St. N.W.
