WY listeners heard a few weeks
ago will be before the same micro
phone tonight, in answer TO a flood Of
requests for the oldtime popular
songs which the Fitzpatrick Brothers
wrote and sang during the alne-
teenth century. That pep and Jazz do
not depend upon age is shown by the
popularity of their last radio per-
formances, for both of the brothers
have passed their SEVENTEEN mile
some in life, and yet their rendition
of the song hits of yesterday and to-
day brought forth an unusual num-
ber of letters.
Can boys bel taught boxing by
broadcasting is the question which
Carl Temple and the program man
ager of station WIZ are seeking to
solve, and since experimentation IS
the only sure solution. that station
is broadcasting q weekly boxing les
son for boys between ten and twenty,
by Carl Temple. Temple has had
several years experience in teaching
the younger generation the manly
art Of self-defense, and feels conf
dent that, even though all the young
listeners-in do not learn TO be Al
boxers, the incentive to physical eX
erCise will benefit every one OF them

IL NJ. s. asks this:
saturday evening | picked up q
station some time between 10 and IL
aud heard some man delivering a po-
litical speech in either Spanish or
Italian. From what little l could un-
derstand | was inclined to believe IL
to be Spanish. 1t came in on about
400 meters and ] don't believe II was
Havana, as l heard them sign off just
shortly before. From the cheering Of
the audience one might well have
thought the speaker was trying TO
get a new revolution started in Mex
