Mud Holds Grange
But Illinois Wins, 1876

Stadium, Champaign, Ills, Nov. Z
-(AP)-Out of the mire and mud of
Illinois 100000 memorial stadium.
Illinois rose today to defeat Chicago
1876. while 10000 spectators sat
through a driving rain, drenched to
the skin, to pay tribute to Red
Grange, in one of the most remark
able demonstrations ever given an
athlete in America.
Grange Slips on Field
The spectators waited and waited
in vain for the annihilator of Penn
sylvania's championship dreams to
muddy gridiron and race across the
chalk lines to give them the thrill
they were seeking. The galloping
ghost Of the Illinois eleven, how
ever, was unable to break away, even
once, because he was simply I'M
able to keep his feet whenever he
started.
The famous redhead carried the
ball from scrimmage II times for
gains of IS yards and was thrown
for a total loss of 26 yards.
Oranges outstanding achievement
today was 25 yards run in return
ing Lampe's kickoff after Illinois
first touchdown.
Chicago scored first. in the second
period, but Illinois came back to tie
the count.
Late in the third period, with the
score tied at 6-6, Rouse attempted
to punt. Reitsch and Kassell block
ed it. D'Ambrosio, Illinois. fell on
the ball back of the goal line as 1t
bounded among the bewildered Mar
oons and gave Illinois her victory.

Victor Company to Place Stars on
Program Of Second Concert,
January Is.

Given an unprecedented indorse
ment by the radio fans of the coun-
try for the first of the series of con-
certs by world famous artists. the
Victor Talking Machine Co. today
announced it had completed plans
for the second concert January Is,
which will feature Nine. Frances
Aida and Miguel Fleta. These ar
lists have acquired fame on both the
opera and concert stage and their
programs viii include music of the
masters in which they have appeared
at their best during their distinguish
ed careers
The American Telephone and Tele-
graph Co has received $1,000 mes
sages from the radio fans commend
ing the initial Victor radio presen-
tation" and urging a continuance OF
the classic recitals. Thousands of
additional letters are pouring into
the offices of the Victor company and
the homes of the artists.
The messages have been received
from nearly every State in the Union
and from several points in Canada,
some of them from men and women,
who, pioneers themselves, are in
isolated places. There also is the
usual great number of messages from
those physically afflicted, who, If 1t
had not been for the radio concert,
never would have heard McCorm ack
and Bori or any of the other great
singers and musicians who are to
appear in future recitals sponsored
by Victor.

RADIO GOSSIP AND NEWS

Radio has entered the New Year
with one of it's biggest problems
still unsolved-how to eliminate
Interference from radiating receiving
sets.
Thousands of radio users do not
require any special tests to inform
them about the devilishness of radia-
tton from oscillattng receivers, but
they. in common with all radio fans
will be interested in the unique tests
recently conducted by the Cleveland
Plain Dealer over station WTAM, as
part of the interference survey
undertaken in cooperation with the
cleveland Radio Association.
Squeals started deliberately in
Cleveland for test purposes were
heard over one quarter OF the american
continent. They were picked up clear
to the Atlantic coast, and as far
Southwest as Texas.
Soon after Harry A. Mount and
Deane S. Kintner Of the Plain Dealer s
radio staff had eliminated the reports
Of persons who, in addition to their
regular radio equipment, had used
two stages of imagination" the
authentic reports clearly established
the tremendous area over Whlcn
radiating receivers spread inter
ference.
In the initial test November 1s,
thew report, those listening in to
WTAM were asked to divide into two
eroups, according to Alphabetical
order of their names, and each group
in turn was asked to put its sets
into oscillation for three-mlnute
period, while the other group listened
This was only within the city OF
Cleveland and it's surburbs, however.
All listeners outside that territory
were asked to report what they had
heard.
The second test, conducted week
later,was designed to check the re-
sults of the first In this test three
radfating receivers were planted" on
the east side of Cleveland, one on
the. west side and one In Arkon. Each
was provided with a mechanical ar
raneement for causing ii to squeai
at regular intervals, about once a
second. Listeners both in Cleveland
and at q distance were asked to re-
mort on what they had heard. In
all more than, 2,000 reports on the
two tests, were received from all over
the continent, and one even came
from South America.
A perusal of these letters indicates
pretty clearly that both tests were
heard and identified over an area
equal to about a quarter of the United
States. The first test was heard with
greater volume than the second,
where only individual oscillators
were used, and more reports from a
| distance were. received on the first
Evening star., 1925-01-11

test. Scattered reports from about
the same area, however, indicate that
sensitive sets did pick up the three
squealers and identified the inter
mittent note.
The greatest number of letters came
from distance, from the east coast
States Of New York, Massachusetts, and
Connecticut.
Hundreds of persons-many of them
hundreds of miles from Cleveland
heard the disturbance created there.
1t was noted that oscillations set I'D by
the second group were louder than those
from the first. Possibly three-fourths
of the apparently authentic reports
mentioned that fact.
In spite of the volume of evidence
TO the contrary, the paper was still
g. little skeptical that a radiating
receiver could produce a wave which
could be heard several hundred miles
away. 1t thought that perhaps
listeners all over the country had
misunderstood instructions and had
put their sets i'm oscillation SO that
the disturbance was not only confined
to Cleveland, but in a lesser degree
to all of the area from which re-
ports were received .,.
1t was for the purpose of check
ing this that the second test was
made. Because the signal could be
positively identified, the second test
was, from d scientific viewpoint,
probably the more valuable of the
two. These facts were noted about
the three oscillators:
No. l, on the east side of Cleve-
land, was of medium intensity, with
very regular beat, squealing a little
slower than once second and break
ing cleanly after each beat.
No. 2, in Lakewood, was very loud
had a sort of double shuttle" effect
in its beats, but broke cleanIy and
was little faster than one beat per
second.
No. 8. was weaker than the others
(even to listeners equidistant from
the three), was less regular In its ac-
ton, somewhat slower than the
others and did not break cleanly, but
rather sounded like a variation of a
continuous whistle. ~
All three of the radiating sets were
heard clearly by listeners in Cleve-
land and within a radius of about 80
miles of the city. Again the paper re-
ceived about 1000 letters reporting
on the test, but this time most of the
letters came from within that 50-mile
radius.
Less imagination was used than on
port was positive in its identification
of the three receivers. This may ac-
| count for the scarcity of letters from
distance. Not enough reports Of q
positive nature were received from

RADIO QUERIES

Radio Editor:
! enjoy your column very much. One
of your readers defends radiating re-
generative receivers on the ground
that non-radiating Ave or six tube
sets are too expensive. During 1924 a
two-tube set was devised, one tube
OF which retains the advantages of
generation, while the other tube
prevents or blocks radiation and at
the same time gives the benefit OF
I) naturalization, CD tuned radio
frequency. and (3) refiexed audiofre-
quency ampliflcation. This so-called
Roberts set is inexpensive compared
with five or six tube or even three tube
sets. Its seIectivity is exceeded only by
the super -hetrodyne and ii gives loud
speaker volume on the more powerful
out-of-town stations. The two tubes
do the work OF four or five. This
note is intended as constructive
criticism of the radiating receiver
My purpose is to throw out Il hint
or suggestion that the time is now
here when no excuse exists for ra-
dating receiver within city limits.

TAX REPEAL
Connally Refuses to Support

WASHINGTON. Dec. s.-CP)-
Replying 10 a telegram from certain
citizens of Waco, demanding repeal
Of the Inheritance tax, Representative
Connally, Democrat, of that state,
served notice that he favored the prin-
ciple of this tax.
Received your telegram the rep
resentative said, 'in which you say
that taxpayers Of that congressional
district held a meeting in Waco on
December 2. and passed resolution
fayoring the repeal of the inheritance
tar by the United States and opposing
the levy allowing credit to taxpayers

sion exists in some minds that 1 am

note your statement that if such be
true, strong opposition will develop
and q mass meeting will be held
throughout the congressional district,
hut il j can consistently oppose the
inheritance tax. you stand ready to
protect my interest and probably can
prevent the holding of the proposed
meeting in the district.
1T is well known that favor the
Inheritance tax to make large estates,
much of whose property escapes the
property tax, bear a fair share of
taxation and to tax the great private
fortunes that are a menace to eco
homie freedom and to permit the re-
duction on income and other taxes.
There is no issue of state rights
involved; since each state may levy
such tax as it desires or none at
all. Thomas Jefferson advocated an
inheritance tax and it was adopted by
the Wilson administration in peace
time in 1916 and every Txeas Demo
crnt voted for it and for the bill, two
years ago. No effort has been made
10 repeal the bill until the present
movement was organized and financed
by those opposed to all inheritance
taxes"
