READ THE HERALD CLASSI- FIED ADS FOR RES TS. fourth Annual AIR MEET HARTFORDA DEATH DEFYING AIRMEN WILL DIVE FROM THE CLOUDS AT SPEED NEVER ATTEMPTED BEFORE Through the Static Step right up ladles and gentle- men! The greatest wonder of the 480, It delights the sye and quickens the pulse. There was no static last night and we hope to drop our typewriter on our foot if the volume wasn't about the greatest ever, Sta- tlons came in loud and clear and distance was a cinoh. It was one of the best night we have had. LR We'll start off conservatively, be. cause when we begin telling you what stations we heard later last night, we expect to get lots of let. ters telling us to start attending Sunday school again and where bad littie boys go, who tell fibs, Bad lit- tle boys who tell fibs usually skip school and go to the movies. Any- way, we're not coming within 100 miles of New Britain. Reviews will bo outside that Loundary. “ e e “Swanes River" and" Dixie" were | among the numbers included in a popular Southern medley played on the banjo by Bud Weaver from WSBZ, Chicago. That station usually | sounds lke a cream separator in full tilt, but it behaved itself last evening and the banjo was trans< mitted almost intact. o . WIBO—Chicago, another one of those statlons below the range of many sets, presented Helen Gins- Burg, soprano, in that well known number, a song which has been sticking with radlo programs since the first station went on the air, “By The Waters of Minnetonka.” It's & pretty number, but after a person gets so ho can sing it back- ds, begin at the mlddle and sing towards both ends and then tie the ends up in a knot and sing that way, the selections loses some of its nov- elty. Far more did we enjoy the vio- lin playing by Charlotte Minor, 13 years old, who let us in on “Ga- votte."” D) We brought in a new one last evening and were much pleased with the volume and clarity of the receptlon. This station was WEBK, Grand Rapids, Michigan, broadcast- ing on 242 meters, “Carry Me Back To Old Virginny,” sung as a bari- tone solo, was all right. For opinion see preceding paragraph. The an- nouncer stated that as soon as they found an extra copy of “Silver Threads Among the Gold,” it would be eung. We hoped for the best, but somebody discovered the gong and away we went on the wings of the morning. . “Walting For The Moon" and “If You Wero The Only Girl” dashed in and then dashed out again as WENR's All-Amerfcan Ploneers or- chestra snapped the numbers out in fine style. o s e Somebody on about 400 neters was reeling off a speech a mile a minute, but we didn't enjoy it, due to the fact that the fellow wi 't speaking English. He spoke French and it s our hunch that we had the Eiffel Tower, Paris, which broad- casts on a wavelength of 1600 me- ters, more or less. Of course, We may be wrong and perhaps we only had Madagascar or something like that, And then again it might have been a station in Montreal. . . The Crosley Hello Boys came through with some close harmony, the like of which we haven't heard for some time. “Ckulele Lady, yone At Home Is Asking For You” and “Look At Those Eyes," all sung in a quick, snappy style, were enough to take us off our feet, They did, and finding our feet over at the other side of the room, we were much concerned lest we should catch cold. We went over to the other side of the room, picked up our feet and—Larry, turn the erank! Smoke Screens and Bombing 75 TO THE BIGGEST AIR MEET THAT NEW ENGLAND HAS EVER KNOWN 1P. M 100 PLANES SATURDAY g r— T Next, ladles and gentlemen, wo have WEAR at Cleveland, broad- casting direct from the stage of Loew's State theater, A singer, un. identified, gave us “Hello Sammy," something we had never heard be- fore and something we are not par- ticular about hearing again. Then came Al Lelster's orchestra in a collection of snappy jazz. The numbers were all new ones, either that or the orchestrations were #0 ultra-fazzy that we didn'ty recognize the themes, . .o The Hotel Mayflower orchestra at Washington, through WJZ and WGY, rattled ow some rattling good numbers under the rattling good di- rection of J, Spencer Tupman. “Brown Eyes, Why Are You Blue?" and “Show Me The Way To Go Home,"” the great American drink- ing song, were offered. WGY's trans. mission s terrible, lately. Have you noticed 1t? We visited tho Red Apple club at WCX, Detroit, volume being extra- ordinary there. Charlotte somebody sang “Lonesome” in such a manner that we almost took the train for the automobile city. Then Bob O'Brien with his athletic uke strum- | g med “Will You Come Back?'" mak- Ing us think that everybody out there In Detroit was lonesome, We'd suggest that Charlotte and Bob get together on that. . You folks are missing something | if you fall to tune in ‘on KDKA's late concerts on Tuesday and Thurs- day evenings. Extraordinary presen- tations from the Million Dollar Grand theater, featuring many of |E the country’s vaudeville headliners and most popular dance orchestras, make the programs of sterling qual- ity. Last night Art Landry’'s orches- tra entertained, one of the®umbers being "Suite Sixteen.” The station came through loud and clear, too. P Well, folks, we had some tour of the country after 11:30. We first vis- ited WHO at Des Moines, where the Bankers' Trust Little Symphony was dashing off some highly classica numbers. We didn’t rematn long, as the program was not too inviting. s e We hit KPRC at Houston, Tex: Jjust as the final selection by a dance orchestra was being brought to a conclusion. The station came in with lots of pep and, in splte of the nearness to WPG, Atlantic Clty, there was no interference between the two. v WMC at Memphis came in for the first time this year. A soprano solo- was singing something abhout gging ‘Along the Road.” The Tennessee station was not loud and | § had a tendency to fade out of the picture for hours at a time, « . | WFAA at Dallas, Texas, surprised | us when we brought it in on about 250 meters. Ford and Glenn of WLS, Chicago, who are visiting at the Texas State falr, or something like that, sang close harmony for us, one of the numbers being *“Moonlight and Roses,” in foxtrot time, Some distortion made reception only fair. . e s Two new stations were testing last night, boti of them coming in loud, but with considerable distortion, One of the stations was at Richmond, Virginia. The announcer used the test letters and we didn't get them. A violln solo by Senor somebody a & vocal duct by two women was far ag we got. The wavelength was about 230 meters. Another station, WCAL or WPAL, at Baltimore, was also testing and the signal was as foud as that from Schenectady. Distortion was marring the program | and a piano solo sounded too tinny to be entertaining. I And— LY That's all for today, S EXTRA!
