THE SUNDAY STAR, WASHINGTON KEEP A CALENDAR. FAMOUS ARTISTS IN RADIO CONCERT . MIME. MATZENAUER INRECITAL TONIGHT Famed Metropolitan Con- tralto to Be Feature of At- water Kent Radio Hour. Margaret Matzenauer, famed con- tralto of the Metropolitan Opera Co., sssisted by Frank LaForge, com- poser-pianist, and Nathan Franko, orchestra conductor, will present the Atwater Kent radio hour, which WRC will broadeast tonight at 9:15 o'clock | in conjunction with other stations of the National Broadcasting Co.

A new scries of radio programs will be inaugurated by the Capitol Theater for its regular Sunday night presentation, which will bring to WRC listeners the music of what is reported to be the world's largest organ, the new Capitol Singing Ensemble and stage features emploving prominent revue artists and operatic excerpts. Maj. Edward Bowes has arranged an exceptional program to accompany these new features. A revue entitled “Oddities” will be part of the stage broadcast. In this will be such well known s lities as_ Pat Rooney. the Keller sisters an and Dunne. The closing attraction on WRC's program will bring before the micro- phone Mrs. August Belmont, the former Eleanor Robson, noted Shake- &pearean actress. She will read Shake. speare sonnets and give several selections from his noted pla Matze- The weekly biblical dramatization will be the story of “Naboth's Vine- yard.” It will be presented by the National Players under the direction of Gerald Stopp at.6:30 o'clock. Music, rich in, cblor, including a wide range of selections, will compose the midday concert by the Mediter- rapeans, and the National Concert Orchestra, scheduled to broadcast at 5:30 o'clack, will feature as its soloist Michael Khariton, a pianist tamed in Europe. WRC will start its morning pro- gram with the services of St. Mark's Episcopal Church.

Other forms of ortion can and do come from the same cause, which 18 poor r.gulation of voltage at the eliminator. To the average person Wwho sees ‘the eliminator taps vlainly marked for various-voltages, it does ot seem possible that there could be voltage variation to any considerable exgent without changing the connec- UONK or without having the electric light plant speed up or slow down. But hereg are the facts: The voltage delivered by an elimi- pator will vary with the load. If the receiver requires more current at ons. time than another the voltage will fall in accordance with the in- crease in load. Even if the set is con- egted, let us say, to the 90-volt tap, the actual voltage may rise ‘way ®l_ve this with any decrease in the eurrent requirements. An increase of 40 volts would not be unusual if the load were decreased from 10 mA to 4. "An eliminator with good regula- tion features, however, would cut this,voltage increase to only 9 volts. Ht will_save trouble to learn to regulate the eliminator if it is not of the best design. ,Did You Knew That _An hydrometer can be used to test calls of B storage battery but it is not advisable to use this instrument for that purpose? There is =o little yolution in each cell of @ “B" storage battery that it is far better to use a volticter for this purpose, and more mecurate.

Opera Co., and Frank LaForge, composer-pianist, who will provide the Atwater Kent radio hour tonight, 3 WRC attraction, Reminds Fans of Which Programs Are Best. It is surprising to find during the day how many excellent things one migsed the night before on the radio. Frren(ls at the luncheon table ask: “Have you heard this and have you heard that?’ Radio reviews in the newspapers discuss the fine features of the night befor though much of value has "been missed, and resolves once more to adopt some sort of effective radio reminder. But resolutions soon are broken. The evening passes, and the programs, too. unheard. One of the best reminders, if one can be reminded to adopt it, is to keep a radio calendar in a conspicuous place beside the set. Select the best from the advance programs and jot them down on this calendar. It is one safe way to avold missing the good things on the air. agf‘fify/ the The New Radio Frequency BEAUTIFUL TONE On Demonstration at T'S HERE Grebe Seven Seven Tubes—Four Stages of Tuned TREMENDOUS POWER—HIGH SELECTIVITY HEAR IT BEFORE YOU DECIDE CREEL BROS. 1811-17 14th St. N.W.
