How to Build COntrollodyne Re-
ceiver. Part III. Relation Between
Parts and Symbols.

In the parts layoutS, shown below,
a number has been assigned to each
instrument and the terminals of each
instrument have been marked to cor
respond TO the markings on the parts
themselves. Where no markings ap-
pear on the parts such as on the ter
minals of condensers. rheostatS, etc,
capital letters have been assigned ar
bitrarily by position of the terminals.
In variable CondenSerS, "a is the
stationary and "B" the rotary plates
terminal. Corresponding numbers and
letters have been marked on the sym
bols which represent those parts and
terminals on the wiring diagram,
given in a previous article this week
SO that the relation between parts and
symbols can he followed very easily.
These numbers and letters will be
used in the detailed step by-step wir-
ing which will describe each connec-
ton from terminal TO terminal.
The functions of the various parts
and their use in the circuit can be,
seen very easily by referring from
the part number on the layout to the
corresponding number on the wiring
diagram. The values or constants OF
the parts are given i'll the list of
parts.
Use Care I'm Mounting Parts.
All parts should be mounted with
the terminals in the positions shown
on the layouts. Terminal soldering
lugs should be fastened in place In
the positions shown for best results

AMATEURS PLEAS
IN RADIO GRANTED
Minor Changes in Air Rules
Asked at Conference Meet
No Opposition.

The radio amateur, battle SCARED
participant in the debate of the first
three annual radio conferences, has
emerged from his fourth parley with
out a scratch and taking with him
all of the few things for which he
asked.
Led by Hiram Percy Maxim, the
amateurs asked but three favors, all
minor notifications in the existing
regulations. They were:
First, that the Department of Com
merce cease the issuance of licenses
for spark transmitters on amateur
bands: second, that amateur phone
operation be permitted in the amateur
band between 1873 and $50 meters
and. third, that monthly supplement
to the list of amateur radio stations
be published by the department.
Meet No Opposition.
These requests were accepted with
out even a hint of debate. Maxim oc-
cupied three minutes of the confer
ence's time in reading the report of
his committee was cheered and that
ended the matter.
AS though fearing that the report
was in itself too brief, a quasi
memorial was appended asking that
the next Congress appropriate addi-
tional funds to enaks the Department
of Commerce to equip itself with Suf-
ficient apparatus to police the ether.
The speed with which the amateurs
problems were handled was in marked
contrast to the procedure of past
years, just as matter of fact, as has
been all of the work of the conference
this year. At the three preceding con.
ferences the amateurs were compelled
to fight against a reduction OF their
wave bands, and each year they lost
a part of what they formerly held.
This year there was no proposal to
shorten the existing bands.
The most important of the recon-
mendations approved for the anna
teurs at conference just concluded Is

WINNER
Stanford Stars $40 Set
Locks Big in City Singles
Tournament
By r. ID. THOMAS.

Earl McPhilomy, star of the Stan
ford Paper Company team of the
District League, today is hailed as
the probable winner Of the Washing
ton City Duckpin Association tourna-
ment at the Coliseum, although two
nights of competition remain.
McPhilomy, with a total Of $40
for five games, nosed out Arthur
Urban who had been leading with
639. McPhilomy gave a splendid ex-
hlbition of skill and determination.
He started with a game of 148 and
then threw in string Of 1874.
He dropped to 10S in the third and
when he fell to SO in the fourth it
seemed apparent that the tall youth
berg, Perez Elicit, l.. L. Rinaldi,
c. o. Caskey and several others were
performing like demons and it APP
peared they would leave McPhilorny
well behind.
But the Stanford expert stuck to
his task and his skill returned in the
final game. He wound up with a
score of Isl that put him one maple
ahead of Urban.
It surprised nobody when Max
Rosenberg, of the Curb Cafe team in
the District League, came through
with a 628-set. Rosenberg is hav.
ing a great season and some fans
consider him Washington's s. best. L. L.
Rinaldi. with 59S, was the night
real surprise. He has not been rank
ed with the towns leading bowlers.
Perez Elicit. the chap who shot
I'll for five games in practice, did
well enough in tournament competi-
ton with a set of 600. G. 0. Caskey
looked great with a total of COZ.
Caskey's performance was a sur
prise.

Mike, according to the central
sages, did very, well with the un-
suitable material given him last
year. At least, the august bodies
controlling Central's sporting habits
believe that Mike knows football
and should produce a winner II the
proper support along all lines were
given him.
No coach is more earnestly con-
cerned with his duties than Miguel.
One of his chief troubles lies in the
fact that he worries too much about
his teams. There are those who
say that the former Holy Cross star
would be benefited by adopting q
more philosophical attitude toward
the teams fortunes.
Mike is going TO attend 'eKnOOt"
ROckne's football school this sum
mer. He expects to come back
with an assortment Of high-class
ideas about offensive playing.
"KnOOt" will find Kelly an apt
pupil, and the Central High School
&C." Club iR confident that with
this added instruction the mentor
can come through with plenty Of
victories.
Prospective members of the foot
ball team have been provided with
football rules books and they have
been sternly told to get on friendly
terms with the contents. Efforts
are being made to whoop up the
schools esprit de corps and to
have all the boys in the school with
any sort Of football training come
out for the team.
George Roberts, lanky star of
the Crescent A. c., and student
at Central, has been approached
and will no doubt be found wear
ing the togs next fall. Something
miffed the temperamental George
and he would not go out for the
team last year. His playing on
the sandlots was one OF the few
bright spots in that hodge-podge.
Enough material has been left
over to assure Kelly of a working
nucleus. Then, his system, en-
tireIy new this year at Central, will
begin to assert itself. The boys
who have had the benefit Of this
years tuition should come along
rapidly, IL at all. and the coach
won't have to spend all his time
telling things he told last year.
Some friendly critics of Kelly's
say that he failed to coach last years
team in the fundamentals of the
game. That will not be possible this
year, because every time the Solemn
One gets hold Of a player he whispers
a fundamental in each ear.
Mike is going to be given every
possible aid next year and the Cen
trail football team ought to take a
new lease on it's lethargic self.
