Apparatus set up In Central Park to retransmit his volce could do liftle more than make audible his volce counting from 1 to 10 as a test. After landing Maj. Hensley found that the generator of the sending set was burned eut. It was sent to the laboratory to determine if the eclipsc caused the mishap, which occurred at the exact time of total eclipse. The first Army aviators returning to Mitchel Field reported fallure in thelr attempts to make observations of the movement of the eclipse shadow, known as the “jumping rabbl: Instead of any visible trafling across the earth, the shadow grew gradual- 1y, forestalling observations to sup- wort sclentific conjecture, Beveral planes which left the field had englpe trouble due to cold.

It {8 operated by an electric company.—K. T. EMBREY. WGBA is the only station in Baltl- more with call’letters ending with A. It is operated by the Jones Electric and Radio Manutacturing Co. Radlo Editor: i 1 shall thank you to furnish me the dlagram of the hook-up of the set used by Mr. L. Vogelsberger described in The Star Wednesday, or if it is & manufac- tured set, the trade name. I should Jike to prove his statement as to recelving signals with the tube removed— CHARLES J. PECK, Room 401, 1300 Pennsylvania avenue The radio edltor does not have the hook-up of Mr. Vogelsberger's set, ner does he knew whether it is homemade or manufactured.

You may have confused it with WCAE, Pittsburgh. KFRU, a new station in Bristow, Okla., prob- | ably is the one you heard Wednesday evening. Radio Editor Last Baturday morning about 12:15 o'clock I heard a station on my three tube set with the call letters WAH, If I understood them correctly. The station was broadcasting a Jazz_se- lection, played by an orchestra. Five minutes earller 1 heard another sta- tlon with call letters which sounded like WFZH, which also was broad- casting jasz music. I would be pleased to know the location of the stations.—Frank E. Scrivener. Have no record of either of these stations. You may have confuged WFZH with WFBH, New York City. | | !

As you do not mention the might you heard this program It is exceed- ingly difficult to identify the station.| The milllon-dollar theater announc ment leada the radlo editor to belleve the program came from the Mark Strand Theater, In New York City. Radlo Editor: This rofers to Mr. J. E. Gassin letter in the radlo column of The Star, January 20, jn response to mine of earlier date. I do not believe that he has tried to evade sesing Mr. Goodall and I belleved at first and | believe now that his busineas en-| gagements make it really diffcult for him to be home eévenings. How- ever, he must realize that this never- | theless operates agalnst the amateur. | Many readers of this column are led to belleve from his letter that ama- teurs are the cause of Interference that actually arises from commercial and Government statlons and his in- abllity to be home operates agalnst them. Mr. Gassin #ays he asked sincerely for help. This was offered to him sipcerely and promptly the same evening and he was unable to make use of it. The amateurs are usually pressed for time, many of us are quite busy and te visit his station means personal sacrifice. I secured the services of Mr. A. B. Goodall to help in the matter. Mr. Goodall Is an amateur, but do not let the title “amateur’” mislead. In Mr. Goodall Mr. Gassin would have the servic of a trained expert of unusual abllity who has more than a Jocal reputation. When Mr. Gassin knows Mr. Goodall he will indorse all I can say of him. I want Mr. Gassin to lsten on my set and hereby Invite him to make me & visit. I have probably ome of the most highly selective regenerative cfrcuits avellable and I belieye that if he accepts my Invitation he will write you again# I.am leaving town for about 3 week, but when I return 1 hope ta be honored by a visit from Mr. Gassin and we may have a report of interest to make.

Reproduction Probibited. 4l Bights Beserved. A Timely Tip to the DX Hound. In most of the large cities of the Upited States there are assoclations of local merchants banded together in 8 co-operative effort to encourage pa- tronize the merchants who have had the courage and the business ability to establish stores and business cen- ters in thelr respective neighbor- hoods. These assoclations run ments in newspapers advertise- in cars and in il trains exhorting shoppers to patron- ize thelr “naborhood"” stores. Phe effect Is bgcoming more notice- able not only In the matter of shop- ping, but &lso in the cles of radio listeners, who day by day come to the reslization that the best programs that they can hope to hear come, with few exceptions, from thelr local sta- tlons, and that little Is to be szined from listening to distant stations ex- cept the thrill that comes from being able to say “My set is the cat's whiskers. I cap cut right through the local stations and puil in every- thing in the country.” But though the trend of the times is toward the better results obtained trom local reception, the long-dis- tance fap will always be with us, so that for such I am going to glve sev- eral tips on the best way of accom- plishing best results in hunting for distant stations.

This is far from being true, be- cause there are other adjustments which are of equal linportance. Most fans who try for and get dis- tant stations notice how much more critical the tuning of the dlals s In receiving such statlons, and are also aware of the marked effect the ad- Justment of the rheostat has in bring- ing in distant stations. In such cases it {s just as impor- tant that the filament current be ad- justed to the proper point as it 1s to get the proper capacity setting for the condensers. In such cases It is impossible to get the same condition of fillament cur- rent merely by setting the rheostat point to the same setting that gave best results two or more nights ago for the simple reason that the ad- Justment has changed because of the change In condition of the A battery. oltage and Current Method. The only way that a proper setting can be obtalned Is by taking the cur- rent or voltage reading of the fila- ment circhit and then adjusting the rheostat to give the same fllament current conditions. This can be done in either waye One method ma use of the cur- rent method while the other makes use of the voltage method If the voltage of the current across the fillament is to be used as the standard, a voltmeter, having a scale of from zero to about eight or ten volts should be used and should be connecte directl across the fila- ment tern 1 of the socket as shown in the dlagram by the V in the circle and not across t battery terminals. If an ammeter is used, it should be connected In serles the circuit as shown in the diagram. It is not necessary to use methods, either one by itself sufficlent.

Cooper st the New Masonic Temple. These were modern Abrahams and Lots, the Bakiatlar! tribesmen of southwestern Persia, who twlice each year drive some half a million cattle, horses, donkeys, sheep and goats over a 12,000-foot mountaln range in search of grass. Through the motion pictures the spectators saw a seemingly unend- Ing stream of men, women, children and animals tramping over hills and valleys, crossing turbulent rivers, scaling rocky cliffs and climbing karefooted through snowfields The most dramatic episode of the migra- tion was the crossing of & broad river swollen by melted snows. The women and small children were ferried over on rafts supported by inflated goat skins. The goats, poor swimmers, were tied and loaded on rafts like cord wood. All the othel animals were driven into the cold, swirling waters to fight thelr way across the swift current The men and boys, supported by water wings of Inflated goat skins, swam among the animals, urging them on and extricating them from dificulties. Scores of the animals drown during every migration and it Is not unusual for some of the men and boys also to lose their live The Bakhtiari men care little for thel: wives and daughters, but they spend much time teaching their sons to ride, shoot and swim while they are still little fellows. Until Mr. Cooper and his photog- rapher, Ernest B. Schoedsack, made the trip, no Europeans or Americans had ever accompanied the Bakhtiarl on thelr migrations.

Metnods employed excavations around the tombs of the anclents in Egypt and the difficultics and dan gers encountered were described by Jean Capart, professor of history ot art and archeology in the University of Brussels, in an illustrated lecture on “Golden Deeds of Egyptian Arche ologists,” in Corcoran Memorial Hali of George Washington University rast night For centuries, he said, the people of Egypt have given themselves up to the hunt for underground treas ures and the time Is not far dis tant when those secking adventure will have nothing more to explore in that country.
