vibrations of bodies, whether they be
strings, as in the case of vioIins and

drums, or vocal chords, as in the case
of the human voice
The vibrations cause a movement

cases air, and set up sound vibrations
in the medium.
You can try a very simple expert
ment which will give you a general
idea of what takes place when You
talk. Take a. book or newspaper and
start reading passage from it.
Then place your hand directly in
front of your mouth and continue
speaking You will notice that the
intensity of the pressure of the air
movement as it strikes your hand
varies as you pronounce the various
words. so that if your hand were
sensitive enough and your brain
trained to translate the impulses
into sound equivalents you could

hear" what someone else was saying
through your hand instead of your
ear.
Most people have tried the old idea
Of connecting two cardboard cups
with a string and stretching the

Devotees of the ancient and royal
Same of chess have used many and
varied ways of playing the game.
Ireat matches have been held by

Radio-chess enthusiasts will be
able to watch the progress of this
great match as easy as if they were

chance to win.
The match is scheduled for June

BOOST SUMMER PROGRAMS
Radio Merchants Association De-
sires Official Insignia.

Tentative plans of the Radio Mer-
chants Association OF Washington
for holding a radio show in tho fall
were abandoned at a dinner meeting
last night at Harvey's on the ground
that the time was not propitious. The
association. however, will make ar
rangements to hold its second annual
radio show the last week in January
or the first week in February.
Alfred l.. Stern. director of the first
radio show, who has been appointed
by the association to stage the second
event. reported that he had conferred
with radio manufacturers in New
regarding Washington's second an
nual radio show. In view of the
numerous radio shows in other sec
tions of the country this fall, Mr..
Stern suggested that the Washing
ton show be deferred until the early
part of next year.

The association decided to launch
an intensive advertising campaign
this summer to educate the public TO

The Telephone Transmittcr md
Receiver. Part j.

Radio Telephony as we know il
today would be impossible without
two Of the simplest yet most wonder
full mechanisms known to man
namely, the transmttcr' or micro
phone and the telephone receivers
There is nothing very hard to under
stand in the action Of these two
instruments once the principle on
which they work is known. but the
original idea which brought these
instruments into being was the work
of genius of high order.
The most common form of micro
phone or transmitter is known as the
carbon microphone transmitter, from
the change which takes place IN tho
electrical resistance Of carbon Gle
ment under d varying mechanical
pressure.
Speech can be transmitted through
air only for short distances because
of the absorption and distortion OF
the sound waves as they travel
through the air. If the sound waves
are directed, as in the case of the
speaking tube installations in some
houses. speech can be transmitted
sound waves are guided and confin ed
to the path followed by the tube
There are very definite limits, how
ever. to the distance over which tho
human voice can be transmitted ed

To get best results it was neces-
sary to stretch the string taut. Then
if one person spoke into one end of
the Arrangement the person at the
other end could hear what the first
person was saying, although the dis
tance which separated the two per
sons was too great to enable one to
hear the other without the arrange
ment mentioned.
vibrations Produced.
The explanation lies in the fact
that the variations of pressure on the
bottom of one of the cups as the
speaker spoke into it caused the bot
tom of the cup to vibrate in accord
ance with the speech vibrations, and
these vibrations were transmitted
faithfully to the other cup by the
stretched string which served as d
connecting link. The vibrations OF
the bottom of the second cup caused
a motion of the air and the conse-
quent reproduction of sound at the
ether end of the line.
The sound was not transmitted by
the string in the same sense as the
sound is directed by the speaking z
tube installations. but was the result
of the transmission of the vibra tions
of the bottom or diaphragm of tho
first cup to the other cup by tho
stretched string.
