heart TO residents of the southwest

Years the road has not been used.
In rendering the check of $2.231.41
to the county treasurer, the repre-

conditions appeared bright, and that
probably with a federal loan the road
might again operate. Tax claims BY.

The X. c. n. ". at one time operat.

was abandoned. and tax claims against
the company have attracted much
attention. Part settlement Of back

considered a favorable indication.
Summerfield. Kan. at the south

CHESS MATCH IS
PLAYED BY RADIO

Haverford. Pa, Dec. 2s.-For hva
and one-half hours a group OF stu
dents at Haverford college recently,
sat before several tables moving
chess men in accordance with the in
structions shouted at th>m by radio
operator in the next rom. At the
same time, another group OF stu
dents of Oxford university. England,
3 600 miles distant, were making the
identical moves and discussing the
same point.
The instructions from both teams
were being sent In dots and dashes:
the first international chess match by
amateur radio was being played The
game. which started at 715 p. m.
eastern standard time. was carried
on without a halt until 12:45 the next
morning. at which time the match
was adjourned because of lengthy
consultations by the oxford team
During the entire period excellent
contact was maintained between two
stations of the Haverford College Ra-
dio club and the English amateur sta
ton.
All communication was on q wave
length OF IS meters. Few interrur
tions were necessary despite heavy
static and interference. The moves
averaged four an hour. or one every
Is minutes. which Is normal time for
two chess teams playing under ords-
nary circumstances.

in. and an explanation OF the theory
involved will perhaps not be amiss at
this time. 1t has been said above
that the detecting qualities Of the av'
erage tube are about twice as good
as when a positive bias In applied to
the grid: this comes as a result of the
grid-voltage grid-current curve of the
vacuum tube: that Is. az 4 result OF
the shape OF this curve.
Correct Grid Values.
Some one has said that the correct
values for the grid condenser and
grid leak with modern tubes comes
with the product OF the capcitance in
micromicrofarads and the resistance
in millions of ohms' equals approx.
mately 200. This statement seems
TO be about right in practice. while
an examination OF the scientific
theory of a vacuum tube shows that

OF each as possible.
