WARDMAN QUARTET ON WCAP
|ROrnping Around
the
Radio Dial
BY Listener.m

BY means Of some really intri-
cate switching WRC presented a
very fine program for local listen
ers last night.
There was plenty of good music
from the beginning Of the dinner
music right up to midnight and a
wealth OF variety.
Programs like the Cantigny din
ner affair make radio listening
worth while. II we had to listen
to soprano solos, talks and instru-
mental solos every night as listen
ers in some other cities seem to do,
we know one fan who would throw
his set away.
It must have given thousands Of
listening in veteranA q thrill to
hear the old war songs sung in the
old war way again.
And there were plenty Of inter-
esting talks, about the best Of which
was Major General Summerall's
from New York. He had an ideal
radio voice and an earuegtness Of
tonaI expression that went well
with his subject.
But the part Of last nights pro
The Washington times., 1925-05-29

gram that most interested US was
the switching. We spent part OF
the evening in the wRC studio and
watched the fun from close range.
After broadcasting q half hour
NJ the Marine Band concert from
tbe sylvan Theater, WRC switched
r. the Pan American Building to
nick nm the Pan American pro-
crarn. featuring the famous Mar
iroha band of Guatemala City.
RI,t the Marine Band concert kept
tight on coming in the studio and
was sent up to New York,
schenectady and Springfield for
rebroadcast at those places.
So actually WRC was broadcast
ing two programs at once. We
had the pleasure Of listening 70
tine Army Band and the Marine
Rand at the same time in the same
broadcasting station.
After the Marine Band concert
was over. the New York line was
not used until the Cantigny dinner
started and then it did double
The dinner program was being
broadcast in New York as well
as washington, so was wired up
ia the studio of WIZ. That much
Was simple, the intricate part
came when General Summerall
made his address from New York.
Then the process was reversed.
General Summeralls talk was
brought down here and broadcast
and also amplified at the Arlington
Hotel for the dinner guests to hear.
After his talk the program went
on as before from Washington.
AS TAR as listeners were con-
cerned, General Summerall's talk
might have been coming from the
same place the others were. There
was no hitch in the switching, and

not afford them, and the regular

D. c. WATER BILL
APPROVED

The District Commissioners have
approved a bill introduced in the
House last week by Congressman
r. Walton Moore, of Virginia, au.
thorizing a connection Of the water
system Of the District of Columbia
with Arlington County, Virginia.
The commissioners pointed out
that 1t is only equitable that the
same privileges be extended to Vir.
etnia 90 have been accorded the
State Of Maryland where the water
sygtems are already connected.
The commissioners feel that, due
20 the fact that the average daily
consumption Of water In the Dis
trdct Of Columbia nearly equals the
capacity Of the aqueduct upon
which the city depends. the District
would not be under obligation to
serve outside territory until the
water supply has been increased.

Final Hearings
on Boundary Case
Menomonie or Hurley Will Be Scene
of Final Hearings in Michigan
Wisconsin Boundary Dispute.

Madison-Final hearings on the
Michigan Wisconsin boundary dis
pute suit will be held either at
Menomonie, Mich, or Hurley, Wis,
probably beginning July y, Robert
M. Reiser, special counsel for Wis
consin, announced here today.
The last hearing was held in Madi-
son in March, and since that time at
torneys for both states have been
collecting more evidence to substanti-
ate their respective claims to the
territory involved.
Since both sides still have consider
able evidence to introduce, the hear
ing probably will continue for 10
days or two weeks, Attorney Rieser
said. The bulk of Wisconsin evid-
ence to be introduced will seek to
show the several ways in which Wis
consin has had jurisdiction over the
areas involved for the past 20 years,
particularly the area around the
Montreal river, he stated.
The Michigan enabling act places
the boundary along the main channel
of the Montreal river, and Michigan
contention is that the West Branch
has always been the main channel,
rather than the East Branch. Other
disputes deal with islands in the
Menomonie river and in Green Bay.
Most of the evidence of both sides on
the latter two disputes has already
been submitted.
Special Attorney Meredith, and As
sistant Attorney General Carl D.
Mosier represent Michigan in the dis
pute.
