Mr.. Wilson and his partner. Mr..
GoOding. both Wilmington youths,
have been experimenting with radio
apparatus for more than twelve
years They we're among the pioneers
In the city in wireless telegraphy;
they built their own receiving and
sending apparatus, and kept steadily
abreast with the advances made In
wireless science. For months past
il has been the custom OF a number
Of musicians Of the city 10 assemble
in Mr.. Wilson's home on Sunday
evenings and give concerts, which
we're wirelessed TO hundreds OF anna
eur radio receiving stations through
cut wilmington and nearby points.
Before oonsenting TO install re-
,eiving set in the First and Central
church for the Music Commission

lated that II must be understood
40 would not be responsible for any
failure TO catch" the music
speeches and other sounds hurled
through The ether above Expert
,nce has taught him that atInos-
,heric conditions are tricky" and
hat what is known among electrl-
,al fans as static interference Is
AZ any time liable TO interrupt and
ruin what otherwise would be a
perfectly fine and enjoyable enter
tainment.
For the last several nights II has
happened that music sent out from
he big transmission stations has
,een caught by most receiving sta
ions in wilmington with unusual
.learness and also volume. Il Is
,oped conditions tonight will prove .
.aually good-but there is no means l
s vet for forecasung. II is literally .
case Of gambling with the air.
