FOLK SONGS IN PROGRAM.

Few people are familiar with the
folk songs and typical airs of Anda-
lusia, a province of Spain, but those
who have heard Andalusian music
will testify to its particular and
unique charm. With the aim of
bringing to the ears of radio listeners
some of the lesser known but none
the less extremely beautiful music.
WGBS has planed a half-hour program
of Andalusian tunes to be broadcast
at o'clock Saturday night. Septem-
ber 12
This program is being arranged un-
der the direction of Juan de Beau
caire, a we'll known musician and ma
tive of that part of Spain whose most
popular airs he will interpret He is
also distinguished as being one of the
leading manipulators of castanets in
this country and will broadcast a
sample of his deXterity. There will
be vocal selections, solos and groups,
as we'll as instrumental pieces, all of
strictly Andalusian origin.

NATIONWIDE GATHERING,
RADIO LEAGUE PROPOSAL
Program Planned for Listeners-1r
During Coming Winter on
Date to Be Selected.

A Nationwide gathering of radio
listeners is planned by the Listeners
League Of the American Radio
Foundation during the coming Winter
in a city yet to be chosen. at which
representatives of the various State
and local councils of the league will
discuss radio problems which AFFECT
the owners Of receiving sets. Election
of these representatives will take place
in the Fall, following the enrolment
of the listeners. 1t is expected that
At least 100, 900 of the listeners will be
enrolled during September, which will
be marked by intense activity by local
members of the league.
a communication from Arthur r.
Tucker, acting president of the founda-
ton. tells of the plans for the organi-
Zation of the councils, which already
have taken shape.
There are many problems in radio
Oroadcasting and reception which can
he solved best by the listeners" says
Mr.. Tucker. "All radio interests agree
that the organization of the listeners
is something greatly to be desired but
until this work was begun by the
foundation the task was regarded as
too large for any existing organization
TO tackle.
"A careful record is being kept of
the IlfSL persons 10 JOIN the Listeners
League in each State and in each city,
and special honors will be paid them
later. at the first national gathering
Of listeners.
Directions for forming the local
councils and the State councils will
he supplied on request. Election of
permanent officers will be held
throughout the country simultaneous
ly on ballots provided by the founda-
ton.
The assistance of governors
mayors, broadcasting stations, Cham
bers CT Commerce and local radio
clubs and civic organizations and of
radio dealers is being enlisted The
foundation will be represented at
many of the radio shows to be held
this Fall"

CRANDALL TROUPE
( HAS ANNIVERSARY
Saturday Nighters Plan Spe-
CiaI Program Tonight on
Station WRC.

In rounding out their first half year
on the air, Crandall's Saturday Night
ers, under the direction of Nelson Bell,
will present special anniversary pro-
gram from the studio of WRC and
also from the Tivoli and Metropolitan
Theaters tonight.
Among the members of the Satur-
day Nigh1ers who will take part in
tonight's entertainment are several
charter members of the organization,
as well as two newcomers. On the
bill are Fred East, baritone: William
Raymond, tenor; Jean Sponsler, so
prano; Evelyn Cunningham. Blue
Singer; the Imperial Male Quartet,
an instrumental trio composed of
Daniel BreeSkin, violinist; Preston
Shelly. violoncellist. and Emile Smith,
pianist; Otto F. Beck, orEanist, and
the Metropolitan Symphony Orches-
ira, under the leadership of Daniel
Breeskin
The Crandall program will be
opened promptly at 1890 o'clock and
will continue until past midnight, with
Nelson Bell presiding over WRCs
microphone.
A second feature of toniGht's pro
gram from WRC will be, a piano re
cital by Kurt Hetzel internationally
distinguished pianist, who is at pres
ent fostering a movement to form
Washington symphony Orchestra, to
take rank as one of the foremost muSl-
cal organizations in the United States.
Mr.. Hetzel has been heard on several
of WRC's programs in the past, and
his temperance on tonight's bill will
be of wide interest to musiC-loving
listeners-in
Other events on the Saturday bill
include the opening Fall concert by
the Lee House Trio, which tonight viii
be broadcast with station WIZ, New
York, from the Lee House; a group of
little Southern stories" by Margaret
Buchanan Yeates, also a frequently

The Inductance COil-the Soul of the
Radio Circuit. Part III.

The demand for instruments which
tuned sharper so as to separate sta
tions sending on wave lengths which
were close together resulted in bring
ing inductive coupling into proml-
nence BY means of inductive coupling
in which two coils connected into diff
ferent circuits were brought close to-
gether. greater degree of selectivity
was obtained and the adjustment OBJ
tainable in the degree of coupling be-
tween the coils also increased the
sensitivity of the tuning instrument.
Inductive coupling made use of the
transformer principle of transferring
energy in one circuit to another cir
cult by conversion of the electrical
current energy in one circuit into
electro magnetic energy, which IN
turn caused the production of an cleo
trio current in the other circuit. In
figure l, for instance, electrical cur
rent flowing in a circuit into which
coil A is connected will produce cleo
tromagnetic currents around the coil.
These electromagnetic currents of
varying intensity, following each va
ration of the current in coil A, will
produce a current in coil B and the
variations of current in coil b Will
follow the variations in coil a.
There are two ways of modifying
the character of the transferred en-
ergy. One is by changing the physi-
cal proportions, such as the size,
shape and amount of wire in the two
coils, and the other is by changing the
relative positions or distance between
the two coils.
The first method takes care of the
! characteristics of relative voltage
and amperage transferred from one
circuit to the other. while the second
takes care of the total amount of
energy transferred to the second cir
cult.
If, for instance, there are more
turns in the secondary coil than there
are in the primary coil the voltage in
the secondary coil will be greater than
that in the primary coil, but the
anoperage will be reduced correspond
ingly. However, since voltage Is the
vital factor it is advisable to have a
step I'D in voltage provided it is not
carried to the point where it will pro-
duce distortion and instability.
The other factor, that of coupling,
takes care of the amount of energy
transfer. This should be as much as
Dossible consistent with the fact of
selectivity. A variable feature which
makes it possible to vary the amount
of coupling or distance between the
coils to take care of both weak and
strong signals is desirable.
Coupler Explained.
The loose coupler was the first of
the instruments which combined the
features of variable inductance with
variable coupling. In the loose coupler
the secondary coil had no physical
connection with the primary coil, but
il was placed inside the primary coil
so that transfer of energy could take
place throughout the inductive
coupling" existing between them. The

RADIO TELEPHONE
PROJECT IN JAPAN
System Adopted at Port of Kobe
Designed to Connect Ships
With Shore.

BY means of radio telephone sys-
tenn the port of Kobe, Japan, is plan
ming to connect it's local telephone 'sys-
tenn ashore with ships radio ap-
paratus, to enable officials and trav-
elers aboard to converse with people
ashore, and vice versa. The depart
ment of communication. it is reported
in the press, hopes to extend this sys-
tenn to other ports.
1t is expected that before long an
individual ashore will be able to pick
up his telephone and ask the operator
for the ship and then the individual
aboard with whom he desires to con-
verse. SO far, 1,2l5 ships have agreed
to take this radiophone service,
which will be valuable in emergencies
as well as for routine conversations.
Radio experts in Osaka, Japan, have
picked up short-wave messages and
broadcasts from both American and
European stations, according to re-
cent reports. Commercial stations
in Argentina talking to Nauen, Ger
many, have been heard on wave
length of 26 meters. American anna
teurs on 40 and so meters have been
received successfully in Osaka. The
receivers used are described as small
affairs with only two tubes.

out of the primary coil, thereby in
creasing the distance between the two
coils.
The variocoupler differs from the
loose coupler in physical appearance
rather than in electrical principle. In
variocoupler the primary coil is tuned
either by means of a tap arrangement
or by the connection of a variable
condenser either in series or in paral-
lei with the coil. The secondary coil
is not variable as to number of turns
but is pivoted on shaft which per-
mits rotation and variation of the
coupling between the primary and sec.
ondary coil. In couplers formed by
honeycomb or other such forms of in.
ductance, tuning is usually accom-
plished by means of variable con
densers and coupling by varying the
distance between the coils.

 They have very black sharp eyes, and they are named after birds and animals. They eat fish, bear, moose and rabbits. They also eat lots of berries.
 They cook their food over camp fire, On rainy days they cook their meals over the fire pit in the centre of the tent. The ten ts were poles tied together with hide strings and skins throWed over the tents.
 The Indian babies are carried in bag fastened to frame work and it has beads on it to make it pretty. An Indian girl showed me her doll. It is cut out of wood, and face painted on it.

Blaine Sous Special Election Wiz Called Suitable TIM
Death of Bryan
Adds to Interest
in Writings Here

Interest in the writings of the Great
Commoner since his death at Dayton,
Tenn, on Sunday night has made up
one of the most popular demands at
the main library and all of its bran
ches in Kenosha, a survey revealed to-
day. The search for information con-
corning William Jennings Bryan, the
man, was widespread and for the first
two days of this week the library has
been besieged with calls for books by
and of the late leader. Books written
by Bryan, articles about him in books
and, magazines and biographical sket-
ches make up the bulk of the demands,
and the incidental demand for books
and magazines on various phases OF
evolution continues.
The prints that are most popular in
clude a volume of William Jennings
Bryan's speeches, with a biographical
introduction by Mary Baird Bryan, his
wife, in two volumes, first published
in 1909. In great demand now also
is Bryan's Letters to Chinese On
cial," a western view of eastern civ
ilization, written in 1905.
Then there are short biographical
sketches by Mary G. and Edna Webb
in their Famous Living Americans"
1915; E. G. Lawry's article in wash
ington Close-Ups," 1921; c. M. San
ford's article in Modern Americans"
1918, and an article by G. w. Stevens
in his Land Of the Dollar" 1908.
Many magazines containing material
by or about w. j. Bryan are also cata-
logued at the library and these are in
constant use.
