The regular per- formance of the opera cannot be degree for ciany are Opposite Studio Program. The great problem, according to com Leslie Joy Still Working. The engagement of a new announcer at WEAF in the person of C. A. Schenk and the absence of Joy's voice from the air waves has given rise to the thought that he was no longer on WEAF's staff. The popular Mr. Joy is very much on the job at WEAF, but is missing from the air because he now functions in an executive capacity in relation to “program building” at 195 Broadway. the “pick-up” and “mixing"” arrange- ments must be relied upon to insure that every portion of the music pla its proper part in the radio presenta- tion. At the present time seven micro phones are hidden in the footlights to pick up the voices of the princpals and chorus, placed in various parts of the two concealed on the stage at advan tageous points to absorb solo and duet numbers, two suspended high over the seats of the audience to provide general balance and carry to the in visible hearers the atmosphere of the opera house and one for the an- nouncer, who will handle the event. AN of these microphones can be | slended together at will, and every pos- sible combination of them may be used when necessary. The engineers now in Chicago have made a careful study of the “Garden Scene” as pre- sented by Chicago’s great lyric or- ganization with the particular object of ascertaining the course of the ac- tion and the positions of the members of the cast and chorus during the dif ferent numbers. Diagram of Stage. A complete diagram of the stage has been made, showing the location of the microphones, which are designated by numbers. During the actual per- formance it is planned to have an ob- server posted in the Auditorium at a point where he can follow the action on the stage in detail.

Cermhgll? not—even though you could get it at price. It’s the same with radio. Even at half price you do not want a set that has only half the musical compass necessary to reproduce a selection properly—a set that covers but 3 to 3% octaves of undistorted reproduction; where twice that is needed. The Stromberg-Carlson Receiver has a musical range of 7 full octaves—sufficient to reproduce accurately the very highest as well as the lowest notes of a full orchestra playing an elaborate symphony. That is why the Stromberg-Carlson can re-create music exactly as played—why a Stromberg-Carlson gives you the full enjoyment of radio. This exceptional tone range is made possible through the finest precision in design, the finest precision in workmanship and the elimination by scientific “total shielding” of all tendencies toward distortion.
