IhoHnas County
HOGS

Thomas county farmers are
planning a community hog sale
for every month in the year and
the Times-Enterprise is waging
a campaign among the farmers,
trying to induce each farmer to
have five hogs ready for each
Of the II sales-that's 90 hogs
to the farmer.
If every Georgia farmer mar
kets 90 hogs Georgia would buy
no more hog meat outside the
State.

ADVENTURES OF A BROADCASTER
BY FREDERIC WILLIAM VILE,
Radioscribe.
Radio and the National Anthem.

The matter transmitted is fed into a
telephone switchboard and passed on
to the transmitting equipment in the
operating room of the station. Then
the stuff goes on the air just as If it
were being produced in the studio.
There's a growing demand for the
broadcasting of public events.

Radio has pulled down it's first plum
at the hands of the Coolidge admins
tration. Representative William r..
Hull of Illinois is one of the United
States Governments delegates to
the pan-American highways con-
ference in Buenos Aires. He owes
his appointment to the fact that
he was in charge of radio at
Republican National Committee head
quarters during the 1924 campaign.
He had full responsibility for putting
Coolidge, Hughes, Dawes, Hoover.
Davis and all the other big guns of
the G.. o. P. on the air. The Presi-
dent has always considered that
Hull's service was exceptionally
meritorious. The Illinoisan is a pio-
neer worker in the cause of good
roads.

CALIFORNIA LEADS

ment List ShoWs-Nevada
Alone Has No Br0adcaSterS.

California, with AZ licensed stations,
is at present leading the United States
in the matter of radio broadcasting.
With just two stations less, Illinois
is second, and then comes Pennsyl-
vania with 40 stations. Ohio has 80
voices, and New York State is fifth
with "a. Nevada remains the only
State without broadcasting station.
These facts were disclosed by the
Department Of Commerce, which for
the first time issued radio service
bulletin listing all of the broadcast
ing stations according to the States
and cities in which they are located.
An interesting observation made on
the broadcasting situation Is that
more than half of all the radio voices
Of the United States are located In
nine States, the five above mentioned
and Texas, Missouri, Michigan and
Iowa. The Middle West, therefore,
Is maintaining the lead over the other
sections of the country in the erec-
ton of stations. California has
erected more new stations in the past
year than any other State, with
Washington close on its heels. Wash
ington is now in tenth place, with 19
licensed broadcaSters.

The common method Of represent
ing an antenna or aerial is shown in
Figure 5, but the symbol shown in
Figure is sometimes used for the same
purpose. Two methods of showing a
loop aerial are shown in Figures Z
and 8. That shown in Figure Z repre-
sents the box type loop, while that
shown in Figure represents the
spiral wound type. The most COM
mon methods of representing a vacu-
um tube are shown in Figures 8, 10
and IL. In each case the looped wire
with two leads coming out of the cir
Gle represents the filament. the SER
rated line represents the grid and the
rectangles in Figures and 10 and
the straight line with the lead at right
angles in Figure II represents the
plate of the tube. In some cases the
grid is represented by a dotted line
instead of a Serrated line, and in some
diagrams no circle is shown. Figures
and 10 differ only to the extent that
in the first case the grid is shown be-
tween the filament and plate. while in
the second the filament is shown be.
tween the grid and plate Figure
represents the condition in the tube
better because in the tube the grid
is between the filament and plate
Figure IL illustrates the ordinary
hiSthON Va SioNiilS dIl lIOH core
choke coil, while Figure 13 shows A
symbol that is sometimes used for the
same purpose. Figure ii shows the
ordinary method of representing an
iron core transformer, while Figure
Is shows a method that is sometimes
used. Figure II and Figure IA are
easier to draw and are used to a
greater extent than Figures 13 and IS.
Symbols illustrated.
Figures Is, II and 18 show three
symbols that are used to indicate a
variable condenser. In Figure 16
there is no indication as to which is
the stationary plates terminal and
which the rotary plates terminal
In Figure II a dot is placed at the in
tersection of one condenser plate with

Different Symbols That Mean the
Same Thing.

While most of the symbols used IN
wiring diagrams are standard and are
used practically the world over by
radio engineers of all nationalities,
there are a few of the symbols that
have not been adopted generally by
all radio men. 1t is wise therefore
to know the alternative symbols that
may be used so that you may recog-
niZe them when you run across them.
In drawing a wiring diagram, lines
must be used to connect together the
various terminals of the different in
struments. Lines drawn from termi-
nal to terminal represent the con-
Meeting wires. 1t so happens that 1t
is often necessary to cross lines in
making connection from one termi-
Evening star., 1925-06-13

nal to another, so that some means
must be used to show which inter
sections indicate connections between
the intersecting lines and which inter
sections are not intended as connec-
tions. Various sets of symbols are
used for this purpose. When an ordi-
nary intersection as shown in Figure
l is used to indicate a connection, the
mo connection is indicated either by
the method shown in Figure 2, which
shows the cross line jumping over the
first or 1t may be shown by the meth
cd in Figure 3, where the cross line
Is broken at the point where it crosses
the first line. In still another method
a connection is indicated by a dot at
the point of intersection, as shown in
Figure 4. When this method is used
to show a connection, the mo con-
nection' is indicated by a simple inter
section as shown at Figure /.

nection as a simple intersection. as

that while broadcasting may stimu-
late the sale of sheet music for a
time, it hurts business in the long
run. A resolution was adopted
pledging cooperation with music pub
fishers in the effort to subject
broadcasting to the same copyright
and royalty regulations as other
forms of public performance. Speak
ers explained that radio audiences
hear the same tune from every sta
ton many times each day. Thus
they are soon so tired of it there is
no possibility of continued sale of
the music for several months, as was
usual in pre-radio years. no matter

Figure Is is used to the greatest ex-
