Through The Static

The Philharmonic society's concert from Carnegie hall, New York city, as relayod through WTIC at Hart ford, was excellent, last night This concert Was the eighth Of a series Of ten programs by the organization and tho selections included in it were many of the better of the class ical numbers. The program came through loud and transmission from the Hartford station was excellent.
 
 We hoard a.so through W1IC, group Of piano solos by Benedict Fitzgerald. The numbers were played in great style, but they were, oh, so classical. Marie Roberts Brown, so- pranO soloist, possessing a sweet, un- obtruSive voice, sang Long, Long Ago" and old time, and Ashes Of Roses" Her voice was in marked contrast 10 so many We have heard, which just rip the diaphragm out Of the loud speaker when they hit those very high notes. Kathleen Stewart was on the program last night too.
 The rest of the evening was q total JOSS as Tar as we were concerned. The static which crashed into our set nearly wrecked the instrument but radio fans in our neighborhood said they received some static, al though not enough to mar programs. Outside of the fact that this dis turDanco made it well nigh impos- sibIo 10 hear anything, conditions were perfect,
 We did bring in WDBJ al Roa- noko, which station sailed in with all the force of battering ram. An cx- collcnt dance orchestra was being broadcast by this station and We re- mained there until driven away by the bursts from the aerial barragc. Until about o'clock last night conditions were great. But after that static started 10 come in and VIC finally went ou'.
 Phil Spitanly's orchestra rendered it's usual satisfactory dinner pro- gram from WTAM, Cleveland. last 1 evening, The station signed off earl.
