Air Raid Listeners Are Concerted Into Radio

useless after the war.

which were directed eastward to
catch the whirring sound Of hostile
airplanes approaching the coast
The listeners prevented many an
air raid on the English coast cities
because they caught the sound OF
the enemy engines long before the
human ear could.
Now these aerial listeners are be-
ing used as radio loud speakers.
