Keyhoe in Thursday's Star may 1 also add my thanks and express my appreciation of the service rendered by stations WRC and WCAP? I was very surprised at the letter of Mr. George Palmer, and would suggest that he get a wave trap. 1 have a three-tube set and experience no trouble whatsoever in getting plenty of distance on a loud speaker while either of the local stations is on_the air. But why search the air for more enjoyment and pleasure when our two local stations supply us with just as £ood, if not better? What I suggest is the soft pedal on some of this code | which seems to spoil so much of our distant reception along with a lot of PAUL F.

Keyhoe expresses a wish to hear from othet radio fans concerning his letter I would say that myselt and 1 am sure many hundreds of other fans feel like shouting, “Three cheers for Mr. Keyhoe!” His defense of our two local stations was splendid, as was the defense of Gra- ham McNamee about a week ago by a fan who criticized the attitude of one lady writer from Cherrydale.

FIFTEEN MINUTES OF RADIO EACH DAY BY JOSEPH CALCATERRA, Radio Editor of Popular Science Monthly et AUl Rights Roserved. Repreduction Prodidited. The Battery Switch. ‘The battery switch is a small device which many fans look upon as merely a small part of a receiving set, per- forming & more or less non-essential function—namely, that of closing or opening the A battery filament eir- cult. There are many advantages; how- ever, to be derived from the use of such a switch and there are also many uses to which it can be put to effect economies in' the construction of a receiving set. . There are vaclous types of such switches, each serving a similar pur- pose in a slightly different manner. The Inside . workings. of a well known type of battety switch are nown In Fig. 1, The handle, A, is ~dr-of an insulating material and fitted at the end with a metal collar, une end is fttéd with two springs, " and D, insulated from. each other and = connected . with the outside terminals, E and F, respectively. GEST ASSOCIATE CHOSEN TO DIRECT NEW STATION | Dailey Paskman, Long in The- atrical World, in Charge of WGBS. W YORK, October 25—Dailey man, who has spent nearly all life in the theater, and for the 10 vears has been associated orris Gest, producer of “The and other noteworthy pro- ductions, adding directly in the pres- entations of Mr. Gest, has been chosen to direct the new radio broad- casting station WGBS, which will open tomorrow night at 8 o'clock. Mr. Paskman also has had consid- erable newspaper experience, and has written plays and sketches. Further, kaving had excellent musical trai ing, he has collaborated with prom- inent American and foreign com- ers in musical works—musical comedies, operettas and so forth. With Rudoif Friml, composer of the current success, “Rose-Marie,” he wrote such song hits as “Chanson- ette,”” “On the Blue Lagoon,” “In Love With Love” and others. Two new for which he has done the book and lyrics, are to be among early Fall presentations. During the present productions of the Russian “Chauve Souris” in this country Mr. Paskman adapted into English all the lyrics for publica- tion in this country which were aiso used by Nikita Balieff, of “Chauve Souris” fame. He will be similarly engaged upon the return of the “Chauve Souris” later in the season Mr. Paskman was selected to direct the policies of the new Gimbel Bros'. station because his previous experi- ence has fitted him admirably to plan programs. It is believed that his fresh point of view coming into the radio field from the theater will do much to provide for the radio audi- ences many unusual surprises. — e CHURCH FAIR PLANNED. t. Mark's Parish to Hold Event in November. The organizations at St. Mark's Church, Third and A streets southeast, have been planning a parish fair since last' Spring, to be held in their parish house on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday, November 18, 19 and 20, beginning each day with buffet supper at 5 p.m. The central committee consists of Miss Elizsabeth C. Chew, chairman; Mrs. M. E. Holmes, Mrs. Robert C. Henry, Henry P. Blair and S. Woodell Frazier. The chairmen of the fancy, aprons, handkerchief, candy, doll and white elephant tables are the follow- ing, respectively: The rector, Rev. W. H. Pettus, for the aid society: Mrs. John Prender, for the women's club; Mrs. Ella_Kerby, for the wom- an’s auxiliary; 8. Woodell Frasier, for the young people's society; Mrs. Alice Mercier and Miss C. L. Jenkins; Charles J. Stockman, for the men's club; Miss Ada B. Voute, - the ice croam and cake, for class A; Mrs. C. H. Abbott, the grab bag and punch bowl, for the Girls’ Friendly Society. The committee on publicity and ad- vertising consists of Mrs. R. C. Henry, Mrs. Howard E. Wilson and Mrs. John Prender. The fair will afford many an ol portunity to purchase Christmas gifts. —-— s Dr. Meeser to Preach. Dr. Spencer B. Meeser of Crozer Theological Seminary, Chester, Pa., who preached at the First Baptist Churéh, Sixteenth and O streets, last Sunday, has been unanimously invited by the church committee to again ‘occupy the pulpit tomorrow morning and evening. The Swedish minister, Rev. A. Wil- son, will preach in the Sunday school room at 3:30 p.m. tomorrow. Saxophonist at Church. Clinton J. Brown, nine-year-old saxophonist, sald to be one of the youngest saxophone soloists in this country, will play tomorrow night at the Fifth Baptist Church. He will be socompanied by his sisters, Ethel, 12, on the piano, and Loretto, 16, on the violin, ‘When the handle is pulled out as is shown in the dlagram the metal :0llar, B, makes a connection between springs C and C, which press against the metal collar, thus closing the oir- cuit between the terminels E and F. When the handle is pushed in the SPFings press against the insulating Dlonl?:\ of the handle and open, the clrouit. A Novel Switoh. A very-novel and ingenious form of switch is shown in Figs. 2, 3 and 4. n this type the closing and opening of the circuit is dons in a way similar 1o that of the switch in Fig, 1. When the handle is pushed in all the way two contact springs rest on the in- sulating material portion of the rod, tlius breaking the circuit. When the rod is pulled out a short distance the two springs both press and ‘grip the metal end of the rod, thus mak- ing contact between thé two sptings and closing the circuit; The really ingenious feature of the switoh Is shown in Fig. 4. “The rod can be pulled out entirely and car- ried away, thus making it impossible for any one to close the A battery circuit and use the set while the ‘key” is in the owner's pocket. A departure from the ordinary “push and pull” type of switch is shown in the switch illustrated in Fig. 5. In this type of switch the cireuit ‘is closed and opened by simply turning the knob of the switch ! clockwise or counterclockwise. So far all the switches mentioned huve been capable only of closing or opening a single circuit It often happens that it is desirable to perform two or more switching arrangements at once. For such a purpose the jack.switches shown in Figs. 6, 7, 8 and 9 were developed The one shown in Fig. 6 can be used like an ordinary switch merely to open or close a single circuit. The jack switch shown in Fig. 7 can be used to open one circuit and close another circuit when both cir- cuits have a common lead, as, for in- stance, to switch from phones to loudspeakers. The jack switch shown in Fig 8 can be used to open or close two different circuits simultaneously. It is merely a double arrangement of that shown in Fig. 6. The jack switch shown in Fig. 8 is merely a double arrangement of that shown in Fig. 7. This type can be used to perform the function of £witch 7 with two different circuits Many other combinations of spring arrangements can be made to suit other requirements. Preacher Continues Talks.

Wilson, who for two years has broadcast a weekly Sunday school lesson from WOQ, before it | was sold to the Unity School of Chris. ianity, is continuing his service over WDAF each Sunday afternoon The services consist of religious ongs by a quartet and the lesson, taught by | Dr. Wilson.

THE STILLING OF THE STORM.—Mark, 1v.35-41, Golden Text—Who then is this, that even the wind and the sea obey Him?—Mark, iv.41, BY REV. HUGH T. STEVENSON, Jesus was wearied with the day's work. His physical and nervous strength were exhausted, so He pro- pased to the disciples that they turn the boat, which He had used as a pul- pilt, toward the opposjte shore where He hoped to find rest! His departure served as a dismissal of the congrega- tion which had gatherdl around the shore and heard Him expound the mysteries of the kingdom in a series of parables. He could not stand the strain of the day any longer. He had been engaged in a service of love from early morning until the shadows of evening were gathering over Lake Gennesaret. He had had no time to eat. He had been at every man's beck and call until He could not go on further with the toll that He had cheerfully rendered at the most unreasonable and unsearonable hours, Worn out by His ministry of heal- ing, preaching and teaching, the Master had fallen asleep on the steersman's cushion in the stern of the boat, as they turned the boat toward the spars: ly settied sections on the other side of the Sea of Galilee. He was so weary that He slept through the storm that threatened them. The apostolic fishermen were acquainted with the sudden storms that characterized Lake Gennesaret.
