More than 200 stations have been placed within the 35 regional channels et aside by the Federsl Radio Com- mission for interference-free broad- casting under its newly announced re- allocation plan. | In their importance to the radio pub- | lic, assignments on these channels are gecond only to those on the 40 cleared | for high-power broadcasting. The en- gineers of the Radio Commission are convinced that the regional and the, cleared channels will insure clear re- ‘ception on at least 75 out of the 90 available wave lengths when the real- location goes into effect—November 11. Because the stations to operate on the tegional channels range in power from 250 to & maximum of 1.000 watts and are geographically spaced from | 1,000 to 1,500 miles apart, it is ex-) ected that the whistles and howls of ! fielemdynlnl will be absent. entirely in tuning them to the average receiving FRANCES GUTELIUS, Pianist. who will give a mllnl tonight at WMAL.

He thought Byrd might want “to buy some extra things" for the Antarctic expedition. “A little while ago” wrote the youngster, “I asked mother if $10 would be enough to come in handy if sent to you, and she said yes. Therefore I decided to send you $10. which I earned this Summer by painting the piazza roof, washing off the walls and ceiling of the bath- room, weeding the garden and vari- ous other similar jobs.
