By the Associated Press. YORK. November 9.—Popu- s indicates the Amer- ican people appreciate amusements of musical value, but prefer them in English. This is the decision of Yvonne D'Arle, former grand opera singer, who gave up roles in the works of Puccinl and Wagner to star in “Countess Maritza.” “I do not intend to remain in the operetta fleld,” sald Miss D'Arlee. “Operas offer greater vocal opportu- nitfes. My appearance in ‘Countess Maritza’ is my contribution to the cause of opera in English.” Miss D’Arle concludes from a study of opera audlences that outside of the regular subscription patrons and a small circle of musically inclined per- sons, opera houses are filled with Ital- fan-speaking people on the nights that performance: with Germar ner. Operettas have become almost as numerous as musical comedies.

Mounting with almost incredible swiftness, the number of broadcasting statlons in the United States took another big leap last week and with the addition of 10 new broadcasters passed for the first time the mark of 600. The licensing of the 10 new sta- tlons brought the total number of plants in operation to 605. ‘With the exception of New York State, where two of the stations were licensed, the new transmitters are fairly widely scattered throughout the country. The newcomers and the wave lengths and call letters they have adopted are as follows: WARS, the Amateur Radio Spe- clalty Company, at Brooklyn, 2956 meters; WKBZ, Karl L. Ashbacker, Ludington, Mich., 256.3 meters; KRAC, Caddoradio Club, Shreveport, La., 220 meters; WKBW, Churchill Evangelistic Association, Inc., Buf- falo, N. 362.5 meters; KRLD, Dal- las Radlo Laboratorles, Inc., Dallas, Tex., 357.1 meters; WKBY, a portab! station owned by Fernwood Quick, of Danville, Pa., 220 meters; KGDA, Home Automobile Company, Dell Rapids, S. Dak., 264.1 meters; WHOG, Huntington Broadcasters’ Associa- tion, Huntington, Ind., 241.8 meters; KRSC, Radio Sales Corporation, Se: attle, Wash.,, 499.7 meters, and WCGU, Charles G. Unger, Lakewood, N. J., 350.6 meters. Although most of the new stations will operate with only a small amount of power and are designed primarily as local stations, several cases of in- terference are expected to develop from transmission on the wave lengths taken by the owners. FPar- ticularly disheartening to Department of Commerce officials was the fact that of the 10 new plants 6 chose wave lengths outside the Government scheme of allocation. In addition to these new stations, the Department of Commerce Was no- tified of five additlonal cases of “wave Jumpin as follows: WJBY, at Gadsden, Ala., changed from 270.1 to 260 meters; KNRC, Santa Monica, Calif.,, changed from 208.2 to 238 meters; KFEC, Portland, Oreg., jumped from 247.8 to 252 meters; KGCG, at Newark, Ark., took a slight jump from 2342 to 239.9 meters, and KFUT, Salt Lake City, climbed from 260.7 to 263 meters. In addition to the new stations %0 built and licensed by the Govern- ment, approximately 80 others are un- derstood to be planning their radio debut within the next slx weeks. Cighty-two other would-be broad- casters are known to be contemplat- ing entrance on the air this Winter. More than 70 stations have boosted their power since July 1 and 40 others are making changes in their equipment which will enable them to transmit their programs with in- creased output and over longer dis- tances.
