DETROIT. July ia foray against

moor Country Club by $50 golfers IN
the first half of the qualifying PLAY
in the Western amateur golf cham
pionship. The fat links swarmed with
players eager to get as low a score
as possible in the first round so thai
they might make sure of being amonE

against par 36-72 for the 6.780-yard
links. His performance was equaled
by Chick Evans of Chicago, eight
times holder Of the title.

Regardless Of how efficient your cir
cult may be, the amount or time anu
effort YOU may have expended IN
building your set or the amount OF
money YOU paid for the receiver prop
ar vour enjoyment of your set will be
very limited If the tubes you use are
not up to the standard.
Actual use Of the tube In a circuit,
or an ordinary test on a tube tester
means very little unless you Know tle
characteristics Of the circuit in which
II is used and the battery constants OF
the test circuit.
The action Of a tube depends on the
fundamental fact that the heating or
the filament electrode causes the ennis
eion of electrons which produce cleo
trical conduction across the inter-elec-
trode space between the filament and
plate electrodes Of the tube. The func-
ton of the grid is to so change the
characteristics of this conducting med
ium by attracting or repelllng the cleo
irons which are emitted by the MA
ment that a controlling action can be
sat I'm to increase or decrease the now
of eIectrons from the filament to the
Mate and thereby increase or decrease
The amount of current flowing in the
plate circuit Of the tube.
The Current Flow.
The amount Of current flowing in
The nlate circuit is dependent on the
Conducting characteristics of the space
between the electrodes and the con-
Quoting characteristics of the space IS
dependent to a considerable extent on
the material used for the filament cleo

The overture and first act from the
Gilbert and Sullivan opera II. NJ. S.
Pinafore," to be presented at Polls
Theater tonight by the Washington
Opera Company, and a concert by
the advanced students of the Wash
iESton College of Music, are the prin-
cipal attractions on the program to-
night of station WCAP. The early
portions of the opera will be broad
cast, from $40 to 9:15 O'Clock, and
will be followed by the Washington
College of Music program, which will
be under the direction of DIR. c. L.

The weekly Tower Health Talk"
from the Metropolitan Tower in New
York, will open WCAP's program at
1870 o'clock Miss Linda Berg, con-
tralto, will then give a joint recital
with Benjamin Y. Morrison, baritone.
Denman Thompson, sports editor of
The Star, will precede the opera with
his usual resume of the base ball re-
suits in the major leagues.
WRC will broadcast this afternoon,
as its chief attractions, a play-by-play
account of the Westinghouse Louis
base ball game and the concert by
the United States Navy Band on the
Capitol Plaza. The bali game is
scheduled TO begin at 4 o'clock, and
the concert at 5. It is likely. how
ever, that the game will continue
until about $50, cutting short the
Navy Band concert.

RADIO MUSIC ROW
REOPENING Is NEAR
Publishers and Broadcasters Squar-
ing Of for Rcopening
of Fight.

Broadcasters and the music pub
fishers have squared off preparatory
to renewing their battle, halted in the
Spring Sby the adjournment Of Con-
gress.
Within the past few days the open
ing guns have been fired. Powell
Crosley, jr., prominent radio manu-
facturer, as well as owner of one of
the country's largest broadcasting sta
ttons. addressing the Radio Manufac-
turers' Association, denounced the
American Society of Composers
Authors and Publishers as an organi-
cation that has within it's power the
ability to bleed the radio industry to
death financially. Just the day be-
fore publication, known to be very
close to the affairs of the organized
music publishers, printed a broadside
that stated in words of one syllable
that the fast growing broadcasting
stations, with their increasing adver-
tising accounts, could very easily ante
up a larger tribute to the society than
the meager z per cent of the societyS
revenue that they now pay.
Attempts to increase the fees for
copyrighted music now paid by the
broadcasting stations and by concerns
using the broadcasting stations for
indirect advertising purposes, 1t is
learned, have been made within the
past month And it is this tendency
that Mr.. Crosley will endeavor to bring
before Congress when it convenes in
December, asking that thorough in
VeStigation be made as to the status
of the society as a monopoly.
At present approximately so of the
$40 broadcasting stations have licenses
from the Society of Composers to use
its numbers as often as they desire.
The remaining stations get along
using "taxfree" music the best they
can.

But the fair stars of today have
many tricks in their bags. The serv-
ice, forehand and backhand drives
merely form the basis of their game.
The younger players, even in the sec
tional class. have command of an
amazing variety og strokes. They
chop, volley and lob as skillfully as
they drive and their net work has
developed from the negative to a most
powerful weapon.
Penelope Anderson of Richmond, Va,
1924 Middle Atlantic champion and
Old Dominion titleholder, offers an
example of this new type of game,
which in a short space of time has
carried her far and doubtless will
take her into the first ranks.
Three years ago this slight Southern
miss was practically unknown. That
Spring at Richmond she wrested the
Middle Atlantic title from MarywilI
Wakeford Of Washington. From that
moment her sun began to rise. Last
year she went to the semi-fnals in
the national doubles and also pro.
gressed two rounds in the singles. She
wins every local tournament in which
she competes.
Miss Anderson's greatest asset is
her versatility. She can chop and
drive with equal ability and makes
remarkable volley placements. Her
network also is beautiful to watch.
1t is this versatile skill in the rising
players to which the Molla Mallories
of the courts are being forced to bow

circuit and on the negative or positive
potential on the grid of the tube.
Varying any of these elements with
in certain limits will cause a variation
in the flow Of plate current from the
B battery in the circuit.
The trend, of research in vacuum
tube development has been toward
the goal of maintaining the efficiency
Of the tube while decreasing the
amount of current consumption of the
filament of the tube. The old stvle
wv 200; wv 201; c 800; and c 3O1
tubes were very efficient tubes from
the standpoint Of receiving as detec-
tors and volume ampuflcation in
audio amplifier circuits. The wv 201
and c 301 tubes also worked rather
efficiently as radio frequency ampli-
f1ers. Their greatest fault was in
their heavy filament current consump-
ton.
These tubes required a filament bat
terry of volts and at that voltage
the drain was one ampere per tube,
making the current requirements of
each tube watts. Economical ope-
ration on dCy cells, or for that mat
ter on storage batteries was out Of
the question when three or more tubes
were used because of the constant re-
Placement OF cry cells OF recnarglng
Of the storage battery.
Tungsten Filament Used
These tubes used a tungsten fila
ment as the source of electrons and
that amount of current was absolutely
necessary to coax the electrons from
their home territory.
Constant application to the problem
of more economical operation resulted
in the use of an oxide coated platinum
filament as the source of the electrons.

The Navy's title to the first honor
in rife shooting is based ON it's vic
tory in the final of the intercollegiate
Association. 1t also had a clear record
In other collegiate matches during the
season.
No Dispute Here.
Leadership in lacrosse, boxing and
gymnastics are conceded to the Navy.
The Military and Naval Academies
had the only unbeaten college lacrosse
teams in the country up to the time
of their meeting. The Navy won,
thus securing premier honors.
The Navy boxing team had a bril-
liant record of victories over all op-
ponents. ending with a triumph in the
finale OF the Intercollegiate Boxing
Association, at Philadelphia, in which
it won four of the seven firsts, and
more than doubled the points of its
next rival.
The gymnastic team OF the Naval
Academy maintained the leading posi-
ton which it has held for Il number of
years by defeating every opponent,
and winning the finale of the Inter
collegiate Association by SO wide
margin that it has been suggested
that they stay out and give somebody
else a chance next year.
The rivalry between Navy and Yale
was enhanced by the fact that each
registered three victories in the six
sports in which they met. the Navy
winning in basket ball, boxing and
fencing. and Yale in soccer, swimming
and water polo.
Discussion as to the probable out
come of meeting of the Navy and
Yale crews on the water during the
past season is regarded as futile here
but 1t is felt that the Naval Academy
holds the first honors of the rowing
year on the basis of comparative rec
ords.
Grew Has Great Record.
During the season the Navy crew
defeated every crew which lost to
Yale, and won from Washington, Wis
consin and Massachusetts Tech. which
Yale did not meet. 1t took first place
in two big events. the American Hen.
ley and Poughkeepsie, the latter, in
particular, being the real test of col
lege crews.
1t is not contended anywhere that
Yale met an opponent of anywhere
near the strength of Washington, nor
had such a test as the Poughkeepsie
race placed upon the Navy crew. I'm
der these circumstances, Yale, il is
thought, can hardly be considered on
a par with the Navy during the past
season.
On the other hand, Yale's foot ball
team was not defeated during the year,
and was so much superior to that of
the Navy that it might be said to off.
set any advantage which the Academy
had in rowing.
Everything considered, the athletic
records of the two institutions during
the year were about as close as could
be, and were certainly unapproached
by that of any other institution.

The WD II; WD IL; c IL and c II
types of tubes which require only
OPS ampere at IL volts were the re-
suit of using this new filament ma
terial. The current consumption per
tube in that case was reduced from D
watts to 0.27 watt or almost to one
twentieth of that of the old tube.
With this tube it was perfectly prac-
tical to use the ordinary types of dry
batteries for filament heating.
Still later developments in the per
fection of filament material for vac
uum tubes resulted in the wv 201A;
UV199 and c 299 tubes. The first two
are designed for storage battery ope-
ration although they may be used
with dry cells. They require 0.25
ampere at volts and are best adapt
ed for use with a 6-volt storage bat
terry. The last two tubes require
O06 ampere at 8 volts and may be
used with dry cells.

Naval regulations permit vessels
bound for the home port after two
years or more of foreign service to
fly one foot of silken material for
every man aboard. The pennants of
