TWO SWIMMING STARS
TO TURN PROFESSIONAL

NEW YORK, November 4.-The
Women's Swimming Association has
announced that Gertrude Ederle and

champions, would shortly relinquish
their amateur standing to engage in

The Washington-Califor game at
Berkeley on November IA may es-
tablish a coast champion then and
there. 1t will if Washington beats
Stanford and then wins over the
Bears. The two colleges first met in
1904, the score being a &c tie. In
1915 Washington won, 72 to 0, and
repeated her victory in the same year.
13 to Z. The Huskies also won two
games played against the Bears in
1916, 13 to 8 and IA to Z. California
won in 1917 and the next time the
two played foot ball in 1919 Wash
ington won. to 0. Incidentally,
this was the last time the Bears
were defeated by college outfit.
California beat the Huskies in 1921
1928 and last years contest ended
in 4 7-to-7 tie.
Fasteners were surprised at the
Indifference which Red Grange mani
tested in playing punts. If a kick
soaring into the backfeld did not
look easy to catch he just let It hit
the ground, content to let any one
tall upon it who wanted to.
When it went over his head he
turned calmly and walked back 10
1t. Any one who wanted to run
toward it and fall on it could do SO.
due to the wet field and wet bali.
But when the writer saw Illinois
play Michigan last year on a dry
field, with the sun shining, Grange
handled punts just the same way.
No chance was taken Of dropping a
punt OF course. most Of this has
happened in the middle part Of the
field, where a rolling punt would not
be likely to place Illini in any great
jeopardy, but as a matter of fact the
scheme which Zuppke evidently IN
siSts upon was often carried out. even
when the ball was near the Illinois
goal. Illini's Indifferent following of
one of Douglass's punts last Satur-
day, in fact, led up to the safety
which the Western team scored
against itself.
Eastern safety men always catch
punts If there is any chance at all of
doing so. but Zuppke has shown that
this dangerous operation need not be
resorted to very often in a game. He
is relying, of course, upon his ball
carriers to advance the pigskin wher.
ever the ball may be recovered. It
remains to be seen how the plan
would work without Britton and
Grange and Daugherty.
One also wonders if Illinois would
have Jared better against Michigan
and Iowa had she played the punting
game as most teams play it.
There are plenty of great punters
this year. Wyndham White of v.
NJ. 1. is one of the best who ever
booted a ball. SO is F1ournoy Of Tu-
lane and Wycoff of Georgia Tech.

japan Goes on the Air.

The first Japanese broadcaster was
scheduled to go on the air at Toxic
March l. This station is owned by
a local broadcasting association and
will carry the usual type of broad
cast program, il is understood. An
other station is proposed at Osake.
Both of these stations are reported
as of $50 watts power. About SO
more applications are said to be on
file.
OF course, the broadcaSts will be in
Japanese, and the power limit Is 1.5
X. W., but 1t is anticipated that
American DIX fans. especially those
on the Pacific coast, will strive to
pick up these Far Eastern transmit
fers, whose initial call letter is j"
Ghe specific calls have not been re-
ported.
Already the Japanese government
has received over 500 applications for
licenses to operate receiving sets, use
of which, as in many foreign coun-
tries, must be authorized officially.
The government is seeing to 1t that
only reliable and non-radiating sets
are used. Local manufacturers and
importers must submit sample sets
to the officials handling radio for ap-
proval before they can be placed on
sale. Distributors of radio, apparatus
must also be responsible for the col
lection of the annual fee OF yen
levied on listeners by the govern
.ment and also the charges made by
the broadcasting association for serv-
fee. When purchase is made the
fan has to advise the dealer where
he is planning to install his set, CIV
ing antenna installation plans and
other data. The cost of sets in Japan
runs from S12 up to $780,

Many complaints about good pro-

companies to get their programs on

IF we are to have good programs
it is essential that studio directors
maintain a proper regard for the OF

mind that listeners-in. desire TO re-
ceiye the best that is broadcast, put
that they can only listen to one pro-
gram at a time.
I'm view of the fact that there is
scarcity of really worth while pro-
gram material from which the listener
NAV choose, the offering of two OF the
very good numbers at the same time
can only result in considerable dis
Measure. Such conflict is not con-
ducive to the best interests or raoio
and seems quite unnecessary.

Used Radio Sets and Parts.

The values of secondhand or used
radio sets are now being determined
by dealers in many sections of the
country on a partly standardized
scale, especially with regard 10 the
development of new sales.
There are few of US today who
junk our automobiles when contem-
plating the purchase of new cars,
and so with old radio sets we are
coming to demand an allowance
when we trade them in for new or
later models. The question Is no
longer regarded as a problem, be-
cause many organizations have fixed
the values of standard sets, making
new transactions easier and more
profitable. Regular radio dealers are
following the question up and one
suggests a used radio clearing house"
1t is not improbable that we may
soon see signs like this: Dealers in
Slightly Used Radio Sets and Parts,
for an auxiliary trade may spring
up just as 1t did in the automobile
Industry. Such stores might do con-
homemade sets, through the sale of
standard parts and units.
In COMMENT on the possibilities
of handling used sets, one dealer
says he takes in some used sets in
trade when they are not badly worn
or out-of-date. Their value is, of
course, based upon the possibility of
future trades, and a limit of $40 on
'trade-ins" is set. Like used auto
mobiles, the value of old radio re-
ceivers depends upon their appear
ance, popularity and efficiency. A
homemade set is considered as worth
only % per cent of one factory-built.
Another dealer gives new pur-
chasers a credit of 80 per cent less
than the list prices of all useful parts
traded In. When set turned in is
less than a year old, a Texas dealer
accepts it at list price, less $3.50 for
each month used. II a prospective
customer fears a new set is not
late model or that it will become
obsolete within a year, this store
guarantees to accept 1t a year later
in exchange for new set, after
deducting the $3.50 per month for
deterioration.
Most dealers insist on examining
and testing old sets offered in trade,
allowing from % to 80 per cent less
wholesale prices on standard parts.
Some retailers have set up a sliding
scale of values for used sets, based
on length of use. They run from Is
per cent depreciation at a month old
to 60 per cent when 10 months old,
which is the maximum. Many deal
ers admit some sort of standa rdiza-
ton would be beneficial, but they
also agree that it is difficult to place
a predetermined value on all the
types which may be offered in trade
as part payment on new sets.

Announcerx Discard Call Letters.

Listeners to stations WIZ and WY
have not heard the familiar "AON"
announcing, or AIN, "ALN" or
"ATN" as the case may be. For the
first time since WIZ opened the first
broadcasting station east of the Allie
ghanies in 1922, the announcers are
Identifying themselves by their own
pames.
The change in policy, which took
effect March l, is the result of the
increased attention to the art of an
nouncing exercised by WIZ and WY.
From now on, good announcer will
win public approval under his own
name, and a poor announcer will re-
cetve public condemnation as himself
rather than as group of three
letters. "AJN" has become Milton
j. Cross" "ALN" is now ~. Lewis
Reid" "AON' addresses the radio
audience as Norman E. Brokenshire."
! ATTN" is Herbert B. Glover.
The history of the famous IAN"
announcing family is an interesting
one. When WIZ first opened in New
ark the question arose as to how
the announcer should identify him
self To avoid any misapprehension
by the audience that the announcer
was a performer the use of initials
was decided upon. The "A" stood for
| announcer: the middle and distin-
gutshed initial was the first letter of
the announcer's last name. and the
| IN" stood for Newark" Thus
Thomas II. Cowan, WIS first an
nouncer, became "ACN' to the radio
audience. When Milton ]. Cross was
engaged he became Am the mid
die initial being used to avoid con-
f1ict with "ACNs'' call. Miss Bertha
Brainard, now assistant to the man
ager, became "ABN' when on the air.
Then WIZ moved to New York in
the Spring of 1928 and the final M
of the announcers' calls stood for
New York. WY was opened up and
the staff of announcerS was enlarged.
Robert D. Newton, now assistant to
the manager, became arm" since
ANN and ADM are not clearly
Understandable to the listeners. J.
Lewis Reid was the next addition TO
the AN family, and since Newton
held the Arm call he became
AIN"
Norman E. Brokenshire and Her
bert B. Glover met with difficulties
when trying to fit their initials be-
tween the "A'' and the IN" "ABN"
was Miss Brainard's call; "AEN" g
unfit for use over the air. and ANN
is awkward So Brokenshire became
"AON." Glover had the same prob
lem. "AGN' and AIM were no.
clearly understandable and "ABN'
was already in use, so he adopted
the call ATTN" "ACN' left the twin
stations last Summer and the family
became AIN" AIN" "AON' and
ATTN" with "ABN'' and arm on
the air only on special occasions.

licenses is between 800 and 500 yen
year. The cost of first-class sta

mum number of paid listeners which

ten to fifteen thousand, it is believed
a return of about so cents per indi-

Although the Shenandoah has
broken nearly all radio records with
her short-wave set, her radio opera
tors are ambitious and hope to Is
tablish new achievements with the
new long-wave high-powered trans
mitter just installed.
When this air cruiser makes hers
trial trip after being overhauled and
flled with fresh helium. she VIII test
out her new high power radio trans
mitter. The new radio equipment Is
XIV in power. the strongest set
ever installed In an aircraft. and more
powerful thiSn all but WEAF and
hGO OF our big broadcaSting stations.
The tr2<dsmitting equipment, design
ed and built at the Bellevue Labora
tory covers a band between 500 and
1880 meters, although the ordinary
Calling wave will be 952 meters. The
set is the result of designs laid out
for long range radio apparatus, when
II was first planned to send the Shenan-
doa.h TO the North Pole little over
z5year ago. Transmission is effected
through ten 250-watt air-cooled tubes,
which put between % and 80 ampeTeS
in the antenna. One of the most in
teresting features is the antenna,
which is suspended from each side OF
the gigantic airship, being brought
up to the central radio car so that
1t forms w" The lower points OF
the Nv" are kept steady by two
weights When landing, the antenna
system is hauled up by windlasses so
that it hangs close to the sides of the
ship, out of the way. Sufficient an
tenna length. without interference
with power cars and other apparatus,
is given by the W. shape.
The most unique part of the equip
meut is the power plant which sup
plies electric power for lighting and
cooking as we'll as the radio trans
mitter. 1t comprises 4-cylinder
gasoline engine which drives directly
a double wound alternator. The
larger armature is rated at kilo
volt amperes, generating 220 volts
at $50 cycles: the smaller winding
serves as a XIV EXETER. developing
voltage of II. The combined power
plant, approximately about 10 XIV,
weighs only $50 pounds, the lightest
power plant yet developed. Besides
being very light, the prime mover is
compact, being all on single SHAFT.
a special governor regulates the gos-
oline feed so that, with added work
applied, more gas is given automat-
ically, keeping the generators at
constant speed Other new features
include automatically operated engine
valves. The generator is SO shielded
that receiving set can De operated
successfully within or feet of the
plant without ignition interference.
To turn the engine over a set of H.
volt batteries is employed through
the 12-volt side of the alternator,
operating as an electric starting
motor This unique power plant was
especially designed and built for the
Navy.
Due to the fact that the radio
transmitting set requires full power
when operating, the special electrical
cooker, which also operates on 220
volts, has to be shut down when the
set is sending. The cook has to keep
in close touch with the radio chief
in order to guarantee the crew hot
meals, which will be possible for the
first time in an aerial cruiser.
Previously only hot coffee has been
served by heating it on the engine
