OPERA SELECTIONS ON RADIO TONIGHT New-Type Recorded Dialogue by “Amos and Andy” Also Feature. Both light and grand opera and a variety of other forms of musical fea- tures, coupled with the initial broad- cast of a new-type recorded dialogue of “Amos and Andy,” the popular WMAQ entertainers, will be presented tonight | by the Washington radio stations. Bizet's “Carmen” will be the operatic presentation which will come over WRC and associated stations in tabloid dress. It will be sung by the National Gra Opera Co., under the direction Cesare Sodero. Marguerite D'Alvarez | will have the title role, supported by Julian Oliver, Marjorie Horton, Niuo Ruisi and Theodore Webb. -The United Light Opera Co., which broadcasts over WMAL and other Columbia network | stations, will provide the light opera which is to be a condensed version of | Lecocq’s “The Daughter of Madame Angot.” | A program of opera by well known members of the Metropolitan Opera Co. will be presented in the General Motors Family Party, another WRC attraction The recital will be presentod by such well known artists as Louise Lerch, so- prano: Dorothea Flexer, contralto; Ar- mand Tokatyan, tenor, and George Ce- baritone. They will be a sisted by a chorus from the Mettopoli- tan Opera and a symphony orchestra. Declared True to Voice. “Amos and Andy" will be heard from WOL at 7:11 o'clock. The time of broadcast is significant in this case. | This famous pair of radio rntm‘lahlersi will not appear in person before the | station’s microphone, but their dialogue is said to be recorded with such fidelity by a new electrical process that listen- ers will have difficulty in noting a dif- ference between the recorded and actual voices. Aside from the opera, WRC's pro- gram includes a number of other major | attractiol chief among them the weekly concerts of the A. & P. Gypsies and “Roxy's Gang” and another “Voice of Firestone” broadcast, which tonight will feature the outstanding hits from current Broadway musical comedy suc- | cesses. The Gypsies will acknowledge thousands of requests by repeating Berger's “Valse Triste” and selections from Romberg's “The Desert Song.” In addition to the request numbers, colorful music from many lands also will be played. The attractive Ethel Louise Wright, & soprano, will be the individual star of the “Roxy” program. She is a recent addition to the “‘gang,” and her broad- cast tonight will mark her first appear- ance before the microphone. Miss Wright formerly played the leading feminine roles in “The Desert Song” and “Rose Marie,” both in the New | York and road productions. Music Boom Episode. WMAL will link up with the Colum- bia broadcasting system at 8 o'clock for its initial attraction, the Music Room episode, which will feature the allegro movements from quintets by Faure, Schumann and Mozart. A bur- lesque on the dramatic poem, “The Shooting of Dan McGrew,” by Henry Burbig. will be the principal feature of the CeCo Couriers program, which will tollow the Music Room broadcast. . The rest of the CeCo offering will consist of selections from the most recent and popular musical comedies, new attraction will be introduced by WMAL at 9 o'clock, which will bring back to the microphone Mary and Bob, | characters in the Story Hour. Mary and Bob will not desert the Story Hour for their new job, however, and here-.| after will be heard twice a week. CHAIN BROADCAST DECISION DELAYED Commission, l’roc_eeding Cautionsly, Is Not Expected to Act Before March 1. Chain broadcasting stations will con- tinue to operate on their current sched- ules at least until March 1. The effec- tive date order of the Federal Radio Commission promulgated on September 8, 1928, proposing to limit duplication of chain programs by stations on cleared channels within 300 miles of each other, again has been postponed. ‘The commission, it is learned, has not yet been able to get sufficient informa- tion about duplication of chain pro- grams to warrant issuance of regula- tions that will correct the present situa- |, tion, which admittedly is far from satisfactory. Consequently, it has for the second time deferred action. Change is Held Certain. ‘The original order was to have be- come effective November 11, coincident with the reallocation, but such was the howl of the chain stations, radio manu- facturers and listeners that it postponed |. the order until February 1, hoping in the meantime to evolve some means of solving the problem. That some action eventually will be taken is promised by members of the commission. Too much sameness of programs long has been the complaint, of listeners all over the country, who contend that with the steady growth of the chains they pick up the same pro- grams from different stations all over their dials. Lack of diversified programs also is becoming the concern of members of Congress. It is one phase of radic that apparently all of the legisiators can un- derstand. At the current hearings be- fore the House merchant marine com- mittee, chain programs and the inabil- ity to get more stations with different entertainment have bzen the basis of most of the questioning. Representative Abernathy of North Carolina wants to know why there are “so many brass bands” at the hottom of the dial, while in the middle there are different :ta- tions broadcasting the same thing. Commission Moves Cautiously. Chain programs unquestionabiy are the best on the air, and therefore the commission is moving cautiously in any change it might see fit to crder, les arouse the ire of the listening public. It is quite unlikely that the original order of the commission ever will go into effect. The principle of arbitrary mileage separation between chain sta- tions, as is proposed, has been found unsound because of the varying recep- tion conditions peculiar to particular areas. Engineers say that separation between the stations should be based on fleld strength of signals, which varies in different regions. (Copyright, by the Consolidated Press.) Polish Schools Make Gains.

FOR WAVES 3PLIT Voluntary Adjustment of | Channels Probable at Con- ference in Ottawa. BY MARTIN CODEL. Efforts will be made to keep (hr‘ matter of short waves out of the devious | channels of diplomucy at the conference | of radio officials of North American countries in Ottawa this week. A vol- untary “gentlemen’s agreement,” rather than a treaty, is ., be sought through a mutually satisfactory division of the continental short waves among the United States, Canada, Newfoundland, Mexico and Cuba. Unless more eness develops over broadcasting, which is confined to an entirely different band of wave lengths, there is every prospect of an amicable agreement. There is an element in! Canada, however, which is vigorously | denouncing this country’s presumption | that an allotment of only 6 of the 96 broadcasting channels for Canada’s ex- clusive use and 12 for shared use is sufficient for the Dominion. The United States delegation now in Ottawa will seek to keep broadcasting out of the parley and t> devote all con- sideration to splitting up the short waves between 6,000 and 1,500 Kkilo-| cycles (200 to 50 meters). Canada's radio officials, it is understood, are in- clined to go along, particularly in view of the fact that a Canadian commission | is now studying the broadcasting struc- | ture of Europe, and in March will study | that of the United States in order to recommend a more stable *-oadcast organization in Canada. Problems Are Different. When it is explained that the ! road- casting band extends from 1,500 to 550 kilocycles (200 to 555 meters) and that the 96 widely spaced channels therein are usable only for program radio, it is apparent how it presents an entirely different problem from the short waves. The broadcast wave lengths comprise a so-called intermediate band of frequen- cies. These are more widely spaced than the short waves to make allow- ances for voice and instrumental modu- lation. The short waves, or high frequencies, to be divided at Ottawa are essentially telegraphic waves, although some may be used for radio-telephony. With the agreed upon separation, they aggregate 639. The Federal Radio Commission recently assumed 63 of these frequen- cies for exclusive use within the United States, allocating 40 to the Universal ‘Wireless Communications Co., 20 to the press and 3 to a California State farm service. On the basis of the known technical values of the several groups of chan- nels and of the limitations of the in- ternational radio-telegraph treaty, signed by about 80 countries at Wash: ington in 1927, the American commi: sion recently designated 393 frequen-| cies to be shared among all the Norlh' American countries. These include 100 for visual broadcasting, or television; 73 for ship and coastal stations, 64 for afrcraft and landing fields, 6 for porta- ble stations for geophysical prospecting, police and fire signaling and the like, 5 for railroads and 4 for miscellaneous experimentation. The technicians are understood to be about agreed upon the mutual use of these channels where no interference results, although Mexican and Cuban experts have vet to pass judgment on | the mutual bands. o | Assumes Rights to Sixty-three. Of the remaining 246 frequencies that are to be divided by the several coun- tries the United States has already as- sumed the rights to the 63 aforemen- tloned. This leaves 183 to be divided. Out of these the governments will doubtless take some for their own joint and exclusive services. The rest will be made available for their respective international commercial services, de- pending upon the policy of each country. The Federal Radio Commission is definitely committed to a policy of par. celing out available frequencies to pul lic utility radio-telegraph service by vir- tue of the Universal and press grants. 1t has not agreed with Canada’s sugges- tion that the short waves shall not be used to duplicate existing land wire services. 'Canada’s reasons for this principle obviously are that she intends using the precious channels to commu- nicate with the many isolated and sparsely setfled parts of the broad Dominion. It is doubtful whether the broad principle proposed by the United States and unaccepted by Canada will cauce any deadlock in the conference. The exclusive channels will probably be left to each country to do with as it pleases. The fact that the United States intends using them to supplement wire services to insist upon getting at least 50 per cent of the exclusive channels for her manifold needs. They have indicated this as their purpose. ‘The wireless interests of the United States will watch the progress of the parleys with more than ordinary inter- est. Whether the Radio Corporation of American and the Mackay radio sys- tems get the waves they want for do- | mestic radio-telegaph " networks for intercity service and for “feeders” to their transoceanic circuits depends al- most entirely upon the number of addi- tional exclusive lengths the Americans are able to procure at the parley.

Paul Nipps of | Paris claims he is the originator of old- time fiddling contests, popularized by breadeasting stations.

CALDVELLS T0QUT RADIO COMMSIN Will Retire Voluntarily Febru- ary 23, and Neither Will Seek Reappointment. The Caldwells, Orestes H. Federal radio commissioner, and Louis G., gen- cral counsel of the commission, who have been so prominently identified with radio regulation, will leave that body February 23 of their own volition. The commissioners, it is understood. will not seek reappointment even if | Congress passes the White bill to ex- tend the administrative life of the com- mission another year after March 15. It is practically conceded that the bill will pass. General Counsel Caldwell submitted his resignation to become effective at the end of last year, but pecause of the many important radio cases pending in the courts, he was | prevailed upon to defer his retirement. |He says now that February 23 is the | |absolute “dead line.” Will Return to Former Post. Commissioner Caldwell, who was ap- pointed to the commission in March, 1927, has insisted that he must return | | to his former position with the Me- iGrm\‘-Hfll Publishing Co., in New York. On several occasions in the past he had announced that he would retire from the commission to resume his editorial work with that company, but in each instance he reversed his decision be- cause of pressing radio problems con- fronting the commission. » | Now it is learned authoritatively from | former associates of Mr. Caldwell in | New York that he will return to the McGraw-Hill Co. within a short time. It was stated that he has been on leave of absence only from that company, and accepted the commissionership with the understanding that he would return. Mr. Caldwell, an electrical engineer, was editor of an electrical trade publi- cation and a radio trade publication of the company prior to his assumption of | | public office. | B Louis to Resume Law Practice. Louis G. Caldwell will return to his law practice in Chicago, which he left last July to become the commission's general counsel and to organize its legal division. He came to the commission well qualified, with a keen knowledge of the technical side of radio, obtained through intensive study under the guid- | ing hand of Prof. C. M. Jansky, sulting radio engineer and associate o & 3 tified against continuation of the com« mission as an administrative body and proposed that the present radio law, providing that the commission pass out of existence as an administrative agency on March 15, be allowed to take its course. He said that the emergency radio problem had been 80 to 85 per cent completed and that the radio di- vision of the Commerce Department is best qualified to handle radio. The commission, he said, should become a quasi-judicial body to pass on radio controversies. (Copyright. 1929. hy the Consolidated Press.) Lawrence College, “Appleton, Wis., y1 1 cost_$365.
