Out of the maze of theory and estimate advanced before the Federal Radio Commission at its hearings on | the problem of the short wave lengths. ! 1t scems apparent that somewhere be- | tween 1,000 and 2.000 high frequency | channels may be made available with proper spacing. Some scrvices, like | radiotelegraphy, will require narrow spacing: others, like short wave relay broadcasting and television, will re- quire extremely wide spacing | These are the channels which the| commission has been called upon to/ assign to a wide variety of services. | Simplification of its prodigous k o(i measufing the relative merits of claums | to the available waves may result when | new technical advances are made to| keep services from “wobbling” off their | paths. This will permit mnarrower | spacing and add to the avaiiable chan- nels Meanwhile. the policy of the commission with respect to short wave | assigaments must necessarily be formed | upon the basis of technical expediency ‘ and public service. i It is a certainty that the short wave | licenses that will be granted. like those for the broadcasting frequencies. wili| be for only.

SATURDAY, JANUARY 21, 198, HIGHER EDUCATION FIELD HERE LAUDED Advantages for Research Work Cited by George Wash- ington University Head. “‘Washington presents a greater field for an institution of higher education than any other city in the country,” Dr. Cloyd Heck Marvin, president of George Washington University, declared in an address made at the City Club luncheon Forum yesterday. Dr. Marvin cited the vast amount of material that may be utilized in re- arch work and in direct study, and | said that few cities in the world com- ;nlndcd the varied environments found here. He said that society has been inter- ested in two main issues, namely “get- ting a living, and living together.” The first, he pointed out, no longer needs study, but the latter, he said, is still the subject of investigation. It is the duty of the university to teach this to its mén and women in order that they may put it to use in mastering the busi- ness of getting a living. Describing the school of government that is to be established in_George Washington’s curriculum next Fall, Dr Marvin told the gathering that it is thg purpose of the officials of the school to gather the best of the country's in- structive facilities along this line, so that the university could give the best that may be had and thereby give the students a sound basic knowledge of the work carried on in their Govern- | ment. Dr. Marvin denounced the idea that | George Washington University is work- | ing toward becoming a great national | university. He explained that the goal | of the university was that of excel- | ling in the courses given, but declared | that each university should be guided | by a distinctive environment and that | none should strive to be regarded as leading all the rest as a great national institution. Dr. Thomas E. Green of the Red | Cross gave a short talk on Thrift week | in which he said that people should lives, o that by thrifty living they never become dependencies. The George Washington - University Four, composed of Robert Ferguson. | James Irvin, Robert Harmon and W. E | Cleveland, entertained with scveral musical numbers.
