Through The Static

Conditions last night weren't half bad and we are told that they were favorable to listening In on Saturday night, although we were away from this fair village and did not have a chance 10 listen in here. We did lis- ten In. though, and found conditions to be excellent. Last night there was good volume on all stations, with no static to speak of. Fading was not as annoying as 1t has been, either.
 WPG at Atlantic City was one of the clearest of all the stations on the air. The Chalfonte Haddon Hall Trio offered several classical selections the names of which 1t was impos- sible to record. We enjoyed the music, however, because, for one thing. the selections did not last all night and the transmission was ex- cellent. The tone was good and it was possible 10 pick out each and every instrument in the trio.
 Selections from Faust" came to ps from WING. New York city These selections were presented by a vocal trio, and, except from an oc. casional mushiness in reception which was caused by code, the pro. gram came through slick. A so. prano solo, silver Threads Among the Gold" was included in this pro gram. We've heard that number about five times from every statior in every arrangement under the sur from soprano solos to dance music and all way stations.
 The Irving Francesca Ensemble from the Hotel Cleveland. eresentet an interesting program from WEAR | This program was not made up en. 1 tirely Of classical numbers, severa of the lighter variety of selection, being offered from time to time. Wt enjoyed Sunshine Of Your Smile" |
