 broadcast Inc game gives promise hat baseball fans have q great time n store for them. Transmission was 'aultlcss and every word was clear, Even the words of the umpire in the middle of the field could be heard. md on more than one occasion the -oars oC the crowd could be heard.
 Joe Brown, the announcer yestor- lay, Is well known to all theater- soers and followers of musical com ,lics. He is appearing in Betty Lec," one of the new shows, which Is playing at the Shubert Majestic iheater in Boston. Besides telling the Of the game, he regaled his listeners with funny remarks and hls descriptions Of the crowd and its reaction to various phases of ycst"r- days game were interesting and 
 WTIC tried out an experiment during the game by rebroadcasting from WBZ. This rebroadcasting was tried out for only few innings There was considerable noise through WTIC while that station was on the air,
 Two interesting selections on the program from the Austin Organ company, broadcast by WT1C last evening, were Fear Not" and There Were Shepherds" These numbers, played by MT. Prutting who has broadcast several times be- fore. were from the cantata "Thc New Born King" written by a wei known Hartford composer a MT Allen, whose 77th birthday anniver' eary was being observed yesterday The solo parts Of the numbers were sung by q soprano soloist and th' combination Of voice and orgal blended into delightful harmony We paused a moment over tha word, delightful"
 
 Announcements were particular, hard to understand last evening Music came through fairly well, bu when it stopped the noise of tn static was moro noticeable than be fore and several times, we had t listen through several numbers be fore we could find out to what sta ton we were listening.
 soprano solo with violin obll i gato from WLW is all we can tel you about the program from tha station. We wouldn't have known was WLW or any other station If " weren't sure of the Cincinnati broad casters location on the dials. Dur ing the announcements we coul hear someone talking, but it was i'm possible to find out what he wa talking about.
 The Lions club held forth at WPG 1 Atlantic City, and added it's roars { the other noises on the air. Atlanti , City station more or less successful combatted the static and other inter ference. however, and reception fror there was fairly enjoyable. WPG noted for it's pure, clear transmlf sion. The orchestra of the Lions clu sallied forth with "Oh, Katherina and "Peter Pan" played in a plea' ing manner, and then the Lions clu quartet jumped over the hedge an dashed our brains out with "Charle. My Boy" and "Driftwood," letting in on some harmony that was har to beat. We didn't remain with th station long after that, as we g
 tired of the racket which came i in spite Of the fact that WPG W. being received with great volume.
 Returning to WTIC, we stayt there for some time. The Ritz dam orchestra of Bridgeport presentt If You Knew Susie Like l kno Susie" a new number, and san Fairly good. but We were anxious : awaiting the beginning of the pr gram by Emil Heimberger's orche tra from the Bond. That band W ] in good condition last evening al the program was presented from l. . main dining room of the hotel. St dom have We enjoyed one Of it's pr grams more and we suspect that |
 orchestra was a little better tn; usual.
 We didn't note the numbers th
 were played, being mainly concern
 with the worK Of the instrumen Transmission was especially good lt
 night and each instrument could l. heard in it's true tone, minus distt
 ton Of any kind. The trumpet pla
 CT is right there when it comes
 playing dirt, but he can also pI
 straight music which sounds mu
 better. The saXophone player put
 tone, free from that reedy no l. which spells the work Of many
 players. AS a climax to the bros
 cast Mir. Heimberger introduf
 each member of his orchestra, tn
 members obHging in turn with sh
 selections on their particular inst
 mcnts.
 Just before signing off for .n night, the announcer at the stu
 stated that WTIC will be on the
 an extra evening this week. On $
 urday night it will broadcast
 concert by the Harvard instrumer
 clubs from the Hartford club. FT
