POLICEMAN IS HELD ON ASSAULT COUNT Brooklyn fnt_rol.n;nfi Fires Into| Crowd When Angered by Man's Remark. By the Associated Press. NEW YORK, November 19.—A | Brooklyn policeman was arrested last night on a charge of firing his service revolver into a group of men who, po- lice sald, had passed a remark about the policeman. Peter Mitchell, 40, a carpenter, was struck in the abdomen by the bullet. Hospital physicians said his condition was critical. | Police said Mitchell told them Pa- trolman John F. Carney, 27, a mem- ber of the police force for four vears, passed the group, from which a re- mark was passed, turned and fired. Mitchell said he had nothing to do with the remark that was passed. After an examination a police sur- geon sail Carney was intoxicated. He was suspended and held on a charge of felonious assault. the world At better stores everywhere | are ANNOUNCE ARGTIC RADIO' SCHEDULE Stations .to Broadcast Per- sonal Messages to Far North Residents. BY MARTIN CODEL Up In the Arctic regions, lacking a proper word in their language, the Es- kimos have adopted kdka as their idiom | meaning “radio.” Thus, naively, they | paying tribute to the pioneer broadcasting station at East Pittsburgh, which will soon resume its annual Far North broadcasts. along with the othe~ stations of the Westinghouse group. Those of the radio audience able to tune In KYW-KFKX, Chicago, late last Saturday night, heard the first of this Winter's weckly schedule of messages from Westinghouse stations to the folk in the frozen North. They also heard special messages from relatives and friends read to members of the Byrd Antarctic Expedition. Some doubt existed today whether the Chicago station, with only 5000 watts of power, carried far into the Arctic or subarctic, in view of weather conditions in the United States and the uncertain operation of so many Amer- ican stations on nearby channels un- der the recent broadcast reallocation. But all the messages, and others, will be repeated over Stations WBZ-WBZA, Springfield and Boston, next Saturday night, and again over KDKA's 50,000~ watt ‘transmiter the succeeding Satur- ay. Then the search of broadcasting into the darkened Far North, where continu- ous daylight reigns from November to February, will be fully under way. The story of the Far North broadeasts is one of the most fascinating in radio and reveals one of its greatest benefits to mankind. Want Word From Own. It is all very well to be able to tune in the ordinary entertainment programs from American and Canadian broad- casting stations, but what the white men in the Arctic want is word from their own. The mails are slow, the of- ficlal wireless stations few and far apart and the dark Winter lonesome and dreary. Sometimes the posts of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, the Hudson Bay Company, the Revillon Freres, the Oblate Fathers and the parties of explorers, fur traders and naturalists find themselves shut in as 7277 7 ( Price, less tubes and speaker, $245 This Beautiful New Stromberg-Carlson Low, perfect in proportion, with beautifully grained panel construction, hasallthefamous Stromberg-Carlson tone.

Others lower i }z:. as 10 months because of snow and This suggested to George A. Wendt, of the Canadian Westinghouse, Ltd., at Montreal, an arrangement for using the American Westinghouse stations to broadcast letters, news reports, official orders and other information each Sat- urday night during the Winter season. All a person in the United States and Canada has to do to have his message read to someone at a particular place up there is to submit it to Mr. Wendt first. This year the Antarctic broadcasts were simply added to the Arctic. There are some 10,800 persons in the Northwest territories, according to E. 8. Finnie, director of the Northwest and Yukon territories of the Canadian de- partment of the interior, at Ottawa. Of these 8,600 are Eskimos and Indians. The latter join the white men in en- | joying regularly the radio programs that | can usually be received quite clearly | on their sets during the clear, cold weather. But the white man likes most the pews from ftiends and relatives in | the Provinces or the States. | Far North broadcasts began over | KDKA in 1923, when e Canadian| Westinghouse distributed riany receiv- | ing sets among” posts of ke Canadian | Mounted Police. Most of the companies operating posts in the north of Canada installed radio sets. These soon were | common _ throughout the inhabited North. The jazz music they received became the delight of the Eskimos. The special weekly Far North broad- | casts were an immediate “nit” with the | white men, judged by the many let- ters of appreciation that came by the slow mails. The messages were read into the microphone of KDKA in the English, French, Danish, Icelandic and Eskimo languages. They told of births and deaths in the family. They re- ported news from the home town, gave orders to employes and_told of pro- ‘motions in the Mounted Police. Some of the remotest outposts of civilization north of 60 cegrees lati- tude, including Northern Alaska and many parts of Greenland, reported re- ception of the messages. They were clearly heard at the northernmost post occupied by white men—the famous Sergeant Joy'sstation, on Bache Penin- sula, in Ellesmereland, about ten and one-half degrees from the North Pole. This year’s broadcasts to both Arctic and Antarctic regions will go out suc- cessively from KYW-KFKX, WBZ- WBZA and KDKA on their normal wave lengths. also broadcast simultaneously on 25 meters for the short-wave receivers to | hear. All programs start at 11 o’'clock, Eastern standard time, and all but those on Christmas and New Year nights are on Saturday nights.

You don't have to go to Maine to enjoy BEAN HOLE BEANS The lumber camps of the Maine woods are noted for their baked beans. “Bean hole beans,” they call them. They are baked in a huge iron bean pot in an oven in the ground called the “bean hole.” This gives the finest baked-bean flavor known. And now, right at home, you can have this same wonderful flavor — that . “baked-in-the-ground” flavor, with the fragrance of pine forests and a season- ing of wood smoke in it. Think of it—you can enjoy this new deliciousness so quickly, so easily in Bean Hole Beans! Ask your grocer to send you several cans today —you’ll want to keep some on hand.
