NEW HAVEN, Conn., October 27.— Yale University replied officially yes- tergay to a petition, signed by hun- dreds of the undergraduates, requesting full publicity as to the new dormitory to be built on Yale campus and asked that building operations be suspended until graduate opinion could be ex- pressed. A statement from the secretary’s office said that the Yale Corporation prudential committee had made ar- rangement for full publicity and had veted to inform the signers of the pe. tition that in its opinion a “referen- dum on the construction and recon- struction of building is not a feasible way of administering physical prop- erties.” B e — The use of “make-up” is greatly on the increase among the women of KFI Los Angeles KPO 5 an Francis SEES DAVIS VICTORY.

Not satisfied with the melodic sound of his Wardman Park Hotel Orchestra within the hotel on Iri- day nights, when the dance num- bers are broadcast, Irving Boern- stein has Installed set in a distant part of the hotel and tunes in, He is seen traveling back and forth be- tween his set and the orchestra, making changes and then canceling his orders. Last ¥riday might Mr. Boernstein had posted several distant listeners to advise him on the effect of various arrangements of instrumentation. He states that he will experiment until he has determined the best kind of orchestration to be used for dance orchestras in radio broadcasting. With the fdea in mind that spocial pla ure written for radio, he has decided that the listener-in will be much better entertaned if a special orchestration is used for dance or- chestras. VON TIRPITZ PROMISES FACTS ON LUSITANIA Former German Navy Head to Re- veal Inside Story of War's Great Tragedy. By the Associated Press. BERLIN, October details hith- to unpublished concerning the inside facts leading up to the sinking of the Lusitania have been promised in a new book to be issued soon by Ad- miral von Tirpitz, the former navy head, Who has been credited with hav- ing given the final order which result- ed in the destruction of the steamer. According to the announcements, Admiral von Tirpitz, now leader of tho Nationalis the Reichstag, has consented to the publication of all the secret archives in his possession, which cover some 20 years prior to 1914 The first book of Admiral von Tir- pitz appeared some years ago, and caused quite a stir, despite its tone of reservation, but in the new volume the admiral, it is said, has promised to “tell it alL” D. C, MONDAY, OCTOBER 27, 1924 FIFTEEN MINUTES OF RADIO EACH DA BY JOSEPH CALCATERRA, Radio Editor of Popular Science Monthly All Rights Reserved. Reproduotion Prohibited. The Prevention and Elimination Radio Trouble. 1 We have had all kinds of special weeks and days—National Defehse day, Mother’s day, Father's day, Prepared- n week, Radio wek, Fire-preven- tion week and Registration week— until it seems that w movement can- not be popularized unless.-a whole week is devoted to it. During that entire week those who are interest- ed or should be interested will have that subject brought before them and kept before them from the moment they arise to the time they say, “Now 1 lay me down to sleep This week I am going to inaugu- rate another kind of week and I am all this week “Radio Trou- Prevention weel with the promise that in return for your un- divided attention and interest in this series you will get the benefit of information that will save you many a fretful hour trying to find what is wrong with your radio set, and per- mit you to enjoy to the utmost the entertainment provided by the large number of radio stations. Radio trouble is something with which every radio novice is familiar through long hours of despairing hunting for the source of unnatural sounds, squeals and how A poorly built radio receiver de- velops trouble just as casily as a hypochrondriac develops symptoms, aches and pains, Recetver Sickness. Radio trouble is merely a form of radio recciver sickness due to the in- exorable working out of the universal law of causc and effect. Just as any form of human sickness and disease is the result of the work- ing out of this law of cause and ef- fect, the troublesome effects often met’ with in the operation of radio receivers can be traced back to the use of a poor or tricky circuit, the employment of defective parts careless or inexpert construction A safe rule for the novice to fol- low is to use only the tricd and true circuits and to follow the construc- tional data of some expert on whose judgment he can rely. Do not try every circuit which Is offered for ex- perimentation, but rather choose those in which complete constructional data are given by some one who has ac- tually constructed the receiver and who Vouches for the fact that it will work if it is constructed according to_directions. If a circuit has been tried and found to work there is no reason why it should not work when used by another fan using similar parts or other parts of good quality. It is much easier to eliminate trou- ble at its source than it s to remedy it later after all the parts are as- sembled. 1f you will keep in mind the old maxim “An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure,” you wiil find that there is nothing in the common saying that a man does not kMow what trouble is until he buys or builds radio receivers. The sources of radio troubles can be divided into five general class The first deals with the selec a good circuit,’ the second with the selection and use of good parts, the third with the proper construction of the recelver, the fourth with the proper maintenance of the equipment and the fifth with the proper opera- tion of the receiver. If care is taken in each department tho result will be a receiver that w give the maximum satisfaction with the lcast amount of troubl Former Florida Mayor Dies of ‘Wounds.

RADIO QUERIES Radio Editor: About 7:15 o'clock ¥riday night 1 heard a man talking about traffic rules for the Harvard-Dartmouth foot ball game to be played the following da: at Cambridge, Mass. Could you tell m the station I heard? I would like to ask Mr. J. 0. Starr for the hook-up and the way his in- door, antenna is arranged. 1 have tried to use an indoor aerial with a one and a three tube set, but I could not get further than KDKA and WBZ. —A. Lee O'Brien, jr., 019 Sixteenth street. The trafiic rules for the Harvard- Dartmouth game were broadcast by WBZ through its ston studio.
