tenna systems. such as electrical light
plug and socket antenna, condenser
antennas, coil or loop antennas, reso
nance coil antennas and the large
number of freak antennas in which
everything from a tin roof to a waste
basket is used as the antenna.
But, regardless Of what the ele-
ments used in the construction of an
antenna system, the electrical equiva-
lent of such a system is that shown
in Fig. L, and every type of antenna
| can be reduced to this form or equiva-
lent.
Ordinary Elevated Type.
AS a starter let US take the ordi-
nary type of elevated wire antenna
and see how this conforms to the
electrical equivalent shown in the
diagram. The simplest type Of this
form Of antenna consists of the ele-
waited wire, lead-in, a coil in the re-
ceiver and a ground connection.
In this case the acity between
the elevated wire and the lead-in to
ground forms the capacity, c. The
inductance of the coil in the receiye er
forms the inductance, ], and the re-
sistance in the wire and In the con-
! nections and in the ground connec-
tion forms the resistance. r
ing calculations and in seeing tho re-
lationship Of various parts of a cir
cult TO each other 1t is common prac-
tice to bunch all the similar clements
together much in the same ', ay as IL
done In arithmetic or algebra when
all similar elements are grouped to-
gether in making calculations.
Capacity in Circu'
In that way the capaoi' C, rep
resents all OF the capacity In the
circuit regardless Of where the in
dividual capacities may be found It
| may be made up OF the total capacity
of the elevated wire to ground; the
distributed capacity in tho induction
coil, the one or more auxiliary con-
densers, whether hxed or variable,
connected with either in series or in
parallel with the inductance coil Of
the receiver or OF the capacity OF
the fnductance coil to ground. The
punched inductance ms consist of
the actual inductance OF the coil; the
inductance of the elevated wire and
the inductance of the ground wire.
The resistance may consist of the
resistance of the ground wire and
the resistances in the various con-

nections and binding posts in the
antenna circuit.
& In a condenser aerial formed by
connecting the receiver antenna cir
cult between two elevated plates, the
capacity II obtained from the capacity
OF the two plates. which form a con-
denser: the inductance mostly from
the coil in the receiver and the re-
sistance from the various connections
in the Gi.cu!t.
In loop aerial, on tho other hand,
the capacity .s obtained mostly
through means OF tuning condensers
in the receiver and In the distributed
capacity in the coil of the receiver.

Celebration on Program.

The first official annual celebration
OF George Washington's birthday in
the new Washington Auditorium next
Monday morning will be broadcast
by stations WRC, WIZ and WGY.
Music will be furnished by the Army,
Navy and Marine Bands. The prin-
cipal address will be delivered by
George W. Wickersham, former At
torney General. Judge John Barton
Payne will preside.

Choice of "B" Battery.

Until you have used it, the quality
or a ''B' battery can be judged only
by its popularity and the reputation
OF Its maker. When you buy a "R'
battery select one of the large size
1t will give you the most electrica
energy for your money. However, in
portable sets, space must be econo-
mized as much as possible and weight
held down. This means Il small bat
terry. Because OF its small size, the
capacity is limited. and it should not
be used except when it is out of the
question to install a larger battery.

Various Types or Antennn Circuits
and Their Electrical Equivnlents.
PaPt- Y.

Few fans stop to consider that an
antenna circuit, regardless OF the fact
that 1t looks like an open circuit, Is
in reality a closed electrical circuit
and that as such IT conforms In action
to all the principles governing closed
high frequency circuits containing In
ductance, capacity and resistance.
An antenna circuit usually consists
of an elevated wire stretched between
two insulated supports which keep 1T
out OF electrical contact with the
ground, a lead-in wire which Is used
to connect the elevated wire with the
antenna post OF the set, a combina-
ton inside the set of an inductance
coil and d condenser or various COM
binations Of inductance and ca ,city,
a certain amount of resistance IN the
wire and apparatus connected into
the circuit and a ground connection.
This, of course, is only for the con-
ventional type of outdoo- or indoor
elevated wire antenna system. There
are, to be sure, other types of an

RADIO QUERIES

RADIO Editor:
In The Evening Star of Thursday
noticed an inquiry propounded by
Dewey l.. Smith and your reply to
the erect that some station obviously
was testing.
l have no doubt in my own mind
that what Mr.. Smith heard between
1:l5 and 1880 o'clock Monday morn
ing was broadcasting of A. L. Bag
ley's morning exercises from station
WOR. in Newark, n. J.
L take this opportunity to say that
/ think it would be an excellent
thing If one of our Washington sta
tions would put over the same kind of
g. program every weekday morning.
FREDERICK s. STITT.
Radio Editor:
1 read your queries every night and
find them very interesting / would
like to know the air line distance to
station WLBL. Stevens Point, Wis,
and CYL, Mexico City, Mexico.
Sunday morning between l and 3
o'clock L heard station which was
broadcasting orchestra music. After
each selection a man would yell
Hey" 1 am anxious to learn the
identity of this station. 1t was on
about a 300 meter wave.-O. j. PAL
MER
The air limo distance from Wash
ington to Stevens Point. Wis, is IT'S
miles: to Mexico City. approximately
1000 miles. Some of the fans may be
able to answer your other query.
viii you kindly inform me through
your radio query column If UV-199
tubes can be used I'm constructing a
power amplifier? Your radio page Is
eagerly read each evening.-HENRY
L. TAYLOR
Yes, UV-I99 tubes can be used for
such purpose very successfully.
once more I must look TO you or
the fans for help. What would we
do without you?
Saturday morning I tuned in sew
eral dance numbers, which were "All
Alone" whats Become of Sally?"
These two were played in succession,
without any announcements between.
The call letters were either WAR
or WEAR; am not certain which are
correct. Everything was quite dis
tinct but the second letter and the
location of the station.
AS this was gotten on my crystal
set, over which / have had II dis
tant stations since February 1. and
as | have not had 1t before, i am es-
pecially in need of your assistance.
,Thanktng you for past favors.-M.
L.
WEAR, Cleveland, probably Is the
station you heard, WAR usually
does not keep such late hours. Any
how, the radio editor will leave this
query to the fans to answer.
Radio Editor:
Please tell me where station KFKU
is located and it's distance from
Washington.-A FAN.
KFKU is the University of Kansas
station, at Lawrence, kans., and is
976 miles from Washington.
Radio Editor:
Friday night about 10 o'clock l
picked up a station on a wave length
of about $50 meters, broadcasting the
prices of some Canadian stocks. j
returned to 1t little later and heard
man talking before an audience.
Gould you or any Of the readers tell
me what station l heard? Also please
tell me If there is a station in Dali
las n. c., and the location Of 9NAM.
JAMES NALL.
CNRE, Edmonton. Canada, which
transmits on $50 meter wave, was
on the air last Friday night at 10
o'clock, but whether Canadian stock
quotations were announced at this
station at this time Is not known.
Dallas, N. c., does not have a broad
casting station. Have no record of
a station with the call 9XAM

Tho loop acts more as an inductance
than a capacity as against the ele-
waited type Of aerial in which the
elevated wire acts more as ca
pacity than an inductance.

systems will be taken UP in to-
morrow's article.

What station uses the test call
6KW? Please give it's location, wave
length and distance in your radio
column, which. / think, is very use
full to all radio fans.-W. II.
6KW is in Tuinucu, Cuba, and

NEAR RIOT is CAUSED
BY HALT IN ELECTION
Inspectors Arrested After Declar-
ing Ballots in Indiana
Town Illegal.
By the Associated Press

BY the Associated Press.
AURORA, Ind, November 4.-SiX
election inspectors were arrested here
yesterday and the balloting was held
up for several hours when a public
demonstration which nearly reached
the proportions of a riot followed a
declaration by the inspectors that the
ballots were illegal and that the cleo
tion could not proceed.
The inspectors when taken to police
headquarters by Chief of Police
George Goodpaster refused to give up
the ballots. They were released and
later rearrested by county authorities,
who took the ballots from them.
All were placed under $1,000 bond.
The ballots were declared illegal by
the inspectors because they did not
contain a citizens ticket, consisting
of candidates backed by an anti-Klan
faction who We're defeated in the pri-
maries by the Klan candidates. The
citizens committee had an appeal
pending with the State Supreme Court
to have its ticket placed on the ballot.
