DR, JACKSON GETS 1026 PHILA, AWARD Cash and Medal for Work in| Medical Science Philadelphia, Feb. 10, (A—His| work in saving human lives with the | bronchoscope, an instrument of his! own invention for the removal of; foreign bodies from the bronchial | tubes, lungs and stomach, has won for Dr. Chavalier Jackson, of th| Jefferson Medical College the 1926 | Philadelphia award, a $10,000 prize Ereated by Edward W. Bok. Judgment of the trustees, “shall have | performed or contributed a service calculated to advance the best and | Jargest interests of Philadelphia.” |E Previous recipients of the award | were Leopold Stokowski, of the finest symphony orchestra in the world,” the late Dr. Russell H. sity,” Samuel S. Fleischer, “patron | and inspiration of a great art cen- ter,” Charles C. Harrison, “creator | of a magnificent museum,” and| Samuel Yellin, “who applied genius | to fron work.” Dr. Jackson, whose fame as a manipulator of the bronchoscope is| world-wide, received the award last | night at exercises in the academy of music at which Vice-President | Charles G. Dawes and Senafor | George Wharton Pepper were among | the speakers, Dr. Jackson was born in Pitts- burgh, 62 years ago and was grad- uated from Jefferson Medical College | in 1886. He is now professor of bronchoscopy and esophagoscopy at that institution and also at the uni- versity of Pennsylvania. | Through the Static ‘We wish we could think of some | master of ceremonies ordinary.

For over two years we've | n quoting conditions and stock | market prices in this opening para- | graph, and you know, as well as we @o, that after one says just so many things about weather and atmo: pheric conditions, there’s nothing | €lse to say, at least, no new ways in | which to say it.

The first para- graph must be used cither for tell- ing about radio conditions or for ai ing a grouch. In case you don't know | it, the second purpose has come into | its own today. . .« . So we'll put the conditions in the mecond paragraph, like this, and start all over again. Conditions were just | fair last evening. During the early | hours there was nothing startling | and volume wasn't anything to get excited about. There was lots of | static below 250 meters all evening, | and finally the upper range got the | habit and the late report included | plenty of that commodity from 230 | right on up to the top. Volume im- | proved after 10:30 o'clock. There Wwas a nasty buzz which had its head- | quarters between 360 and 330 meters end this did some interfering. There was a slight roar all around the dials.

But don't| got the idea that stations weren’t | coming through, They were, more or | less. | Paul Specht and his orchestra | treated us to a program of rhythmic symphonic snycopation from WJZ,| opening with “The Road to Mamm-i lay.” “Thinking of You,” with vocal | chorus by John Morris, drummer of | the band, was worth the price of ad- mission. Let's say right here that all | the orchestrations are original and they are made as tricky as possible, with symphonic foundations, un- usual breaks and imposing inter- ludes. In fact, some of the numbers remind one of real symphony or- chestra music, except for the tempo and the sometimes ordinary theme. “Hello Swanee,” with memories of the Old South injected at every | cross-road proved really delightful, a special chorus for trumpet and ban- | Jo registering well. Then one of those Latin castinet tunes, “Spain,” | closely followed by “Yankee Rose,” both of which were done in a color- ful manner.

RS Harold Leonard’s orchestra from the Waldorf-Astoria, provided danceable tunes from WABC, New York, in no uncertain tones. They played a waltz number and the old- est inhabitant, who was sitting by our side at the time, stated that it was the self-same number they used to play at skating rinks when the entire country was as skate-crazy as it is dance-crazy now. We gazed at him in wonder and he made several unwholesome faces which upset us considerably. Then came “Hello, Swanee.” We figured that we'd heard enough of that number for one eve- ning, so we left. . Well, we'll conclude now with a list of those we brought in late in lthe evening.
