KEYSTONERS START FORWEST TONIGHT Musical Feature Will “En-l train” for St. Louis—WRC in on Program. . Having visited prominent centers of the Bast in previous radio perform- Ances, the Pennsylvania Keystoners to- night will “entrain” for St. Louis with & musical accompaniment that WiV be broadcast by Stations WRC, WJZ New York, and WGY of Schenectady. The Keystoners will have with them | several extra members of the “train crew” on their journey to the West, the most notable members of whom will be Sam Herman, xylophonist, and Andy Sanolla, saxophonist. Several novelty features of the Pennsylvania Railroad Hour are also scheduled for this evening, when it takes the air at 8 o'clock, Eastern standard time. Letter on African Hunt. The Washington portion of WRC’s entertainment will introduce as its principal feature a_second account of the experiences of Dr. William M Mann, director of the National Zoo- logical Park, who is now in the Tan- ganyi Territory, East ., di- rectinz the Smithsonian: pedition in its attempt to capture sev eral new animals for the Washington Zoo. Dr. Mann's experiences. which mnclude the breaking of the 100-yara dash record by him in front of a herd of buffalo, will be read in letter form from WRC’s microphone by Austin H Clark of the Smithsonian Institution. Dr. Mann is at present in a region “gwarming with rhinos,” according to his Jettér, and he expects to get one for the Capital in the near future. Other presentations on WRC'’s pro- gram this evening include the “Gems of Romance,” the “Southern Hemi- sphere Cruise,” sponsored by Thomas Cook & Sons: the Kitt Trio, William Spencer Tupman's Hotel Mayflower Orchestra and Meyer Davis' Le,Para- dis Band Base Ball Play-b -Play. This afternoon at 3 .'clock WRC will resume the broadcasting of play- by-play accounts of the games plaved on tour by the American League champions of 1925. The game will be played in Chicago, beginning at 3 o'clock. Edith Reed, pianist, and the Lori Wolfe Dance Orchestra will provide the musical features tonight at sta: tlon WMAL.

There are many factors which must be considered in determining the re- sistance or apparent resistance of a clreult. The direct current resistance or op- position to the flow of a direct cur- rent in a circuit is dependent chiefly on the materlal of which the con- ductor which carries the current is made and its size. N A resistor is a conductor which in- troduces resistance in a circuit. A rheostat is a reeistor so arranged and made that its resistance can be varied within its range. An ohm is the unit of resistance. Muitiples and submultiples of this unit are used for larger and $maller units of resistance. A calumn of mercur: 106.3 centimeters long, with a cross- sectional area of one square milli- meter, has a resistance of exactly one ohm. This corresponds to a column of mercury about 31 feet long and .0015 square inches in cross-sectional area. A plece of No. 14 copper wire, such as used in con#tructing an aerial, re- quires 380 feet to produce a resistance ot one ohm. Conductors Vary in Weight. Different conductors vary consider- ably in weight for equal bulk and in resistivity for u given bulk, so that some means must be provided to give an idea of their relative resistance qualities. ‘The resiktivity of conductors is com- pared in terins of the resistance of a given material per milfoot. A circular mil has been chosen as a unit of are: It is the area of a circle one one- thousandth of an inch in diameter. A :I: having a_sectional area of one CALCATERRA rity on Radio Reproduction Prohibited. | & circular milfoot. This is the ‘unit used in comparing the resistivities of { conductors of different materials. The resistance of a circular milfoot of annealed ceopper at zgro degrees centigrade (32 egrees Fahrenheit), the | lémperature of freezing water, is 9.59 {ohms. The reletive conductivity and | resistivity of other materials is meas- ured in terms of the ratio which exists between the resistance of a milfoot of the other materials and that of the re- sistince of a milfoot of copper. To find the relative conductivity of a ma- terial, the resistance of a milfoot of copper is taken the numerator and the resistance of the other material as the denominator of a fraction. To find he relative resistivity of the other material as compared to copper, the resistance of a milfoot of the material is taken as the numerator and the re- sistance of a milfoot of copper as the denomlnator. The Long Conductor. A long conductor is in effect several conductors connected in series, so that the resistance of a conductor is pro- portional to its length. A long cen- ductor has a greater resistance than a shorter one. A conductor of greater cross:sectional area is in effect several conductors connected in parallel. The greater the cross-sectional area, there. fore, the less the resistance. Neglect ing temperature effects, which vary slightly with different materials, eles trical resistance is directly propor- tional to length and inversely propor- tional to cross-sectional area. The resistance of all pure metals in- creases as they become hot. The re- sistance " of certain aloys does not in- crease with the temperature. Exclusive of temperature, the fac-| tors which affect resistance are type of cross-sectional material ular sail Al & length of one foot 4’ aren. - Palmer Punch t8: orgai e and BAL San Cirels WBAL Orche: Bedyme i RO A ey 1d: Bob Patéerson's Hotel Kimball Tris iel Dance Orchestra. rean concert rk .

LITTLE MARIAS, Minn., July 26 (®).—Cornered in a thicket deep in the Woods near here, John Westblade was | killed today by posse men seeking him | in connection with the death of two highway patrolmen, Westblade opened fire on the posse | as it approached his refuge a half mile ffnm his farm, from which he fled last Friday after the patrolmen were shot down as they removed a sign he had erected on the slde of the highway. Immediately the members of the bosse dropped behind protecting trees, and after a short exchange Westblade fell dead. He was believed insane. He 1s alleged to have set the fire that destroyed his farm home and orchard Priday. e —— Do Not Do This to Your Radio Set!

PHILADELPHIA, July 26.—Plans went forward today for a convention of representatives of the radio in- dustry throughout the country to stop what the sponsors of the movement said was threatening broadcasting chaos and possibly the abandonment of the radio by the American public. | Arrangements for the convention are being made by an executive com- mittee consisting of Louis B. F. Ra: croft, chairman of the radio section )f the Associated Manufacturers of Electrical Supplies and acting general chairman of the National Radio Pro- | tective Committee, and the presidents |of the Radio Manufacturers’ Associa- tion, Natfonal Association of Broad- casters, American Radio Relay League and the chairman of the broadcasting committee of the radio isection of the Assoclated Manufac- 7 [turers of trical Supplies.

A young woman was going up the steps. The door opened and Mrs. Bure ton, wearing her best gown, appeared on the threshold to welcome her. In the living room beyond the lights were on and heads could be seen clus- tered about small tables. A card party! ‘The third that month on Orchard street. P’hebe sighed. Of course, .she dld not cxpect to be invited to the young neighbors' card parties, she didn't know how to play cards anyway, and she had no fancy dresses like Mrs, Cooper's to wear. And the lively though non- sensical chit-chat of the afternoon card tables was quite beyond her grasp, Still, she was lonely — very Jonely. It was hard to be the only old person in a street full of young matrons. Her tall white house, with its green window blinds. was no more out of proportion among the surrounding gay bungalows than was she herself among her youthful neighbors, ; “Oh, dear, dear,” Phebe sighed, 'm blue as a whetstone, that's what I am—blue as a whetstone. Guess I'll go upstairs and rummage.” When Phebe could think of noth- ing else to do she went npstairs to rummage—way up into the low attic under the eaves, where the smell of pine and bees’ nests were, She loved her attic. It was full of old junk, things t had to F: long before they had and married, things that had %e- longed to her when she was a girl at home. She had been lively enough then, goodness knows. But Phebe never got upstairs at all, for she fell as she was going toward the door. Maybe her anikle turned, maybe she stumbiéd over a thick rug. She never knew. She only knew that she went down, striking her right hip and shoulder met helonged | which were changed frequent! and narrowly missing the rocker of o tetlime the old mahogany chair. " If she had hit that with her temple— As it was, she was hurt too much to move for several moments. Then she dragged herself to the couch and got up on it, and groaned a lit- tle and felt faint, and wished she had the arnica bottle, which was in the kitchen cupboard. . “I expect 1 ought to let somebody know,” she thought. ‘But there's nobody but those chits like Fanny Burton, her everlasting fcolishness that & body could be here and gdie for afl #he cared. 1 wish I had a telephone. 1 suppose I might rap oni the wim- dow. or something. Maybe somebody will be going by pretty soon.” & Tears rolled down her cheeks. She felt so hurt and bereft and alome. Oh, dear, dear! What was the use anyway? 4 At that instant the back door open- ed softly and she heard a pleasant “Hoo-hoo!” There were light foot- steps, and before Phebe appeared a slender. young woman in a glowing gown. In her hands was a tiny tray holding a slice of cake and a glass of ice cream. A “Why, Phebe Comfort!” she cried aghast as she saw the small gray shape on the couch. “What has hap- pened to you?” “Everything,” Phebe choked. “I fell and I'm all broke to pieces— and T don't care a mite.” “But I care!” Fanny Burton set down the tray. She seemed to know what to do, where to find things. She brought eemedies out ef Phebe's medicine closet and applied them-—spirits of ammonia and arnica for the bryises. She bolstered Phebe up with pillows and covered her feet with a blanket. She soothed, patted, encouraged '‘Good lan Phebe exclaimed, as she began to feel better and got a natural hold of things again. “You are leaving your company for me.” “The company will look after them- selves,” returned Fanny. “And you And she’s s0 taken up with | can't.

Presently Fanny rang back home and when ghe veturned she was wear ing her bungalow apron. “The girls are gone, she said sy were so interested in you How are you now?

Polly Peters brought the baby and showed off his cunning | tricks until Phebe laughed. Mrs. | Cooper brought an armful of inter- esting magazines, Mrs. Court fed her with dainty things to eat, and she whom Phebe had always called “the Warren woman” brought a great bou- | quet of roses. As for Fanny, she was | nurse in charge, and such a wonder- | ful little companion as she proved. | “I'll be sorry when it's over,” | Phebe sighed. “I've had such a good | time, my dear, in spite of my sprains | and bruises.” | “We've had a good time, too,”| Fanny Burton replied. ““We have all | learned lots.
