DESIGNER OF BOWL T0 BE RENEHBERED Memorial Tablet o Be Placed at Portal 10 _— | New Haven, May 5 (P—A tablet| n memory of Charles Addison Ferry, | designer of the Yale Bowl, will be| dedicated here June 20 next, as part of the exercises of commencement | week at Yale university, it was an- | nounced today. The tablet will be placed over portal 10 and the dedlica- tory exercises will be held about this | portal. | The tablet will be presented to the | university by Smith F. Ferguson of New York on behalf of the Yale En- | gineering association of which he is| president and will be unveiled by! Miss Ruth M. Ferry, daughter of the | designer of the Bow Prof. George H. Nettleton, chair- | man of the board of control of the | Yale Athletic assoclation will accept | on behalft of the university. Ely M. | T. Ryder of New York, chairman of | the engineering association commit- tee on the memorial, will act as chairman of the occasion. The baslc idea of the design of the Tale Bowl, known widely for its cefybination of psvchological ef- | feotive-#ss and engineering | ictty vnd used as a model for sim- | tures, was entirely that of Mr. Ferry, who was resident engi- neer during its construction, Graduating from the Sheffield | Scientific school in 1871, with the degree of bachelor of philosophy, he entered the office of the city en gineer of this city and made rapid progress. He later entered private || practice and had much to do with planning the detafls of the water- | works systems ot New Haven and | nelghboring cities. He.was a past | president of the Connecticut Society of Civil Engineers. In 1891 he received the degree of | clvil engineer from Yale. In 1816 he presented a paper on “The Yale | Bowl” before the American Society | of Civil Engineers. He died July 31, 1 1924, He was a native of Connecti- | cut. | Through the Static | Last night was nolsy. There was static galore all evening and there were several varieties of bloopers running wild all along the wave channels throughout ths evening. | But, friends, there was untold vol- | ume. That's one consolation. PR | The Radio Nature League, from WBZ, continues to appeal to us, and | we were highly interested in the topics taken up last evening. Thorn- | ton W. Burgess spent considerable time in describing a “freakish” Iishi caught recently in the Connecticut | river. It resembled an eei, a bull- trog and a bullhead, all at once and | all at the same time. (If somebody | pulls that one about the possibility | of its being Lon Chaney, the class will be dismissed at once.) Mr. Bur- Bess said that the fish was not freak, but it was of a variety not common to Connecticut waters, hav- al | Boy Apparently John and Bill Mitchell | have concluded their programs, or possibly they were heard from WJZ and not from WBZ. No, we just re- membered that we heard a soprano and tenor duet from WJZ about 8:35 o'clock, 80 the boys must have quit. They were scheduled from both sta- tions, but WBZ used a talk by Don- ald B. MacMillan, the Arctic explor- er. He told of the flowers and trees found near the pole, to say nothing | of the birds up there. He said that his next polar trip will start about June 23. He was an excellent talker and WBZ reproduced his voice in good shape. WBZ came through, in spite of the heavy static. PN We reccived several calls from radio fans in the city, asking where John and Bill Mitchell were last eve- ning. The only answer we could give was that stated above. We Were as disappointed as everyone else. « o That saxophone octet, heard from WJZ, is out of sight. You remember, | the organization used to play from | WEAF and associated stations and ' now it has jumped to WJZ, making it casier for New Britain fans to hear the music. Well, we've always enjoyed the soft, full music of the! saxophone and we probably always | will, he said defiantly, “Sweet and Low” was played in just that man-, ner. “Nesting Time,” in foxtrot tem- | po, was enjoyable, while the quartct of “To a Wild Rose,” left nothing to be desired, to wax trite, DIy WABC, WMSG, WBAL and KYW came through loud in the course of pe evening. WCKX, Detroit, was unusually loud, even for that station. The EIks' band was furnishing the program and the sololst, accompanied by the said band, sang “Tonight You Belong To | Me" and “Moonbeam, Kiss Her For | Me,” Then the band played on. “Blue Skies."” PR WEAF, New York, falrly loud, presented the National —Cavaliers | .« s e | | | male quartet, a worthy organization, with excellent arrangements and de- lightful volume. “On A Night it June” was the number we heard. PR WRC, Washington, and WLW, Cincinnati, came through well, ac- companted by static. The Night- 4 s at the latter station provided some steam-heated dance music. P WTAM, Cleveland, was extra loud at times and we heard a program of orchestra and quartet selections, “The Mau Who Owns Broadwa: gems from “The Chocolate Soldier,” “Alma, Where Do You Live?” and other old musical comedy favoritek were played. Then came a group of old time songs, including “Moonlight on The Wabash' “Yankce Doodle and others. The program was i\'rlrwul and worth hearing. KDKA, WGY and WJIR was also represented. “ s The week of May 8 brings to the audience of WTIC a changed sched- ule. The Hartford station will not lessen the number of hours it broad- casts each week, but during the sum- mer months its silent night will be Saturday night instead of Wednes- day.

When your baby cries— What do YOU do? EGLECT your baby?—Not you! Yet, more than half the time mothers are unwittingly guilty of this very thing. Your little one cries and you are instantly alert. You take him in your arms but his erying contin- ues. Even feeding fails to quiet him. What is the trouble? . . . You ask yourself a hundred ques- tions. But you rarely know. And Baby cannot explain. . . . That’s where the real difficulty comes in, A fact, recently brought to light M@icll authorities tell us that at least 66, of all babies are allowed to suffer needlessly the torture of Urea irritation. Nor is frequent diaper-changing a rem- edy. The stinging acids in the urine crystallize almost immediately into tiny, gritty particles—so small they are in- Z.B.T, visible, yet so harsli as to turn the sensi- tive skin into & raw, inflamed surface. The only positive preveative of Urea irritation is to keep these tiny crystals from contact with the body. A New Method of Relief A remarkable baby powder has now been perfected for exactly this type of irritation. Whereas ordinary talcum powders dust off almost as soon as ap- plied, Z.B.T. contains a special ingredi- ent which adheres 8o closely to the skin as to make it almost completely mois- ture-proof. Thus a delicate, protective coating is formed against dangerous acids, irritation and chafing. Yet the powder does not cake, and allows the free, normal flow of perspiration. Inaddition, Z.B.T. contains a mild anti- septic that counteracts the slightest in- fection and soothes the skin back to a healthy velvet-like texture. Get a can of Z.B.T. today.
