We still feel that the new | reallocation order hasn't brought | much of the cxpected relief to the is as bad as ever. Despite fhe cut- | many stations, things are not so rosy and we won- der if anything will be done about it. Last night for instance there were at times as many as three stations on the same wavelength. For example: | WJZ was broadcasting its regular | slumber hour program at 11 o'clock and all seemeg in excellent shape for the timé being. Suddenly however the music began to die down and at | the same moment the strains of a | dance orchestra from some western | station began to flow in through the | speaker, then again the slumber | music came in with force. This in- | terchange lasted throughout the hour, with a third station cutting in from time to time, broadcasting late news events. Earlier in the cvening | a similar state of affairs was ex- | perienced on WEAF's wavelength and WOR's as well. No wlet's see what we have for | tonight. Among the well known Russian restaurants in Paris is one that is run by refugee members of the former Russian aristocracy, called ‘he Home of Russian Come- dians,” where the best traditions of Russia are maintained in food and service, and an entertainment is furs nished that is international in char- | acter with a strong Russian nu\-or.{ T'his restaurant will be the center of | activities during tonight's broadcast of the regulai “An Evening in Paris” feature at 9 o'clock aver WEAF and WTIC, with some excellent haunting melodies of distinguished Russian composers supplying the bulk of the evening's entertainment. The National Broadcasting and Concert Bureau has in store for to- | night another of those all-popular programs, whiah will feature Phil | Cook, the National Cavaliers, Henry Kcott, John Mitchell, Mildred Hunt and Smalle and Robertson. Included,| in the program are Dett's “Jube | Dance,” Nevin's “Mighty Tak' A Rose.” “Sonny Boy” from “Singing 1%00l.” “There's A Rainbow 'Round My Shoulder,” “You're the Cream of My Coffce” and many others. The program will he broadcast over WEAF and WTIC at 10 o'clock. Schubert's “Ave Maria” will be | cutter, played as a saxophone solo during a program of vocal and instrumental music over WJZ and WBZ at 10 o'clock, while other sclections will include l.ec's “Out of the Dusk to You,” Herbert’s “When You're Away" and the famious “Parade of the Wooden Soldiers.” LC. s-1gyil. moreandlcSere ROBERT TASKER IS STILL IN PRISON Writer of “Grim Heaven” Wins! Fame Behind Bays o | Small immediately recognized the gift of the man and encouraged him |to further efforts. The American wrticles followed, by which he is known to thousands in the United States. Months followed when the creative spirit of the convict drove him to work far inte the morning hours with only the light of a wretched candle, Warden James B. Holohan of San Quentin gave all the encouragement and istance possible and Tasker co-operated by his exemplary con- duct, maintaining himself as a mod- el prisoner at all times, remaining out of disciplinary difficulties and never losing any privileges, Noted Authors Ald Him When a publishing house asked Small if he knew of a man in.

CHI SE BOB HAIR Peking, Nov. 23 (UP)—With the death of Chang Tso-lin, the opposi- tion to bobbed hair for the girls It has disappeared in Manchuria, and thousands of Chinese girls in Muk- den and elsewhere are shearing their locks. The Normal 8chool for Girls in Mukden is taking the lead in setting the new tashion. Chang Tso-lin thought bobbed hair was “not nice,” and girls were torbldden to hoh. In respect to his father’s memory, Chang Haseuh. liang, the “Yung General” hag not lifted the ban, but has shown he approves the custom by permitting it in schools supported by his gov- ernment.
