terest Lacking. Broadcast
Plan Full Reports.

World series base ball appears TO he
the only outsta nding event scheduled
to receive nationwide attention from
the broadcasters for months to come.
This lack of nationally interesting
material for broadcast sting is in mark ed
contrast to the situation that pre-
vailed last Summer and Fall. Just a
year ago, with the two political con-
Ventions ended. chain tie-ups were be
ing arranged for the two addresses of
acceptance of the presidential nomi-
nations. for campaign speeches, and
finally for election night.
This year. with nothing but base
ball in prospect for big-time radio.
elaborate plans already are being laid
To give the crowning event in the
national pastime Il great play on the
air. Should the final battle lie be-
tween two Eastern teams, it is eX-
pected that the interest in it will be
less than in the event of an inter
sectional contest. with St Louis or
Detroit as one of the contenders. In
any event. however, the series will
likely be accorded q tieup of at least
a score of stations.
In the Fall several new radio ad-
vertisers are expected to enter the
field, and can be counted upon to
offer new ideas in radio presenta-
tions. These, it is hoped. will be of
sufficient appeal to merit the re
broadcasting of them in all parts of

Make sure that the pigtail or flexible

has lodged between the plates of the
condenser.
Good Sockets Essential
Next, take q look at your sockets.
If CHEAP sockets of the mud" type

Martin, 20 Queen street. Southing- ton, and well known to thousands of New Britain people.
 About a year ago rheumatism settled in my hips and in the calf of my leg. l didn't mind the pain so much at first and thought 1t would go away. But as time went on the pain and stiffness became so bad I had to go to bed, where I stayed over four weeks, and in desperation l used all kinds of remedies along with medical aid but with no success. One day Waterbury friend sent me package of NOX-RI-TIS and ask ed me to give it a trial, and by the time l had taken three or four treatments I was up and at work again.
 Y have taken 5 treatments now and I feel l am free from rheuma- tism. The aches, creaks and stiff ness are all gone and just to prove it I'll dance a jig for you"

TALK ON LINCOLN.

Rev. G. H. Schneck, who is prov ing very popular at the '. M. c. A. Bible class this year, gave a talk on Lincoln fast night. He termed Lin- coin a Christian and gave evident proof of it. First, Lincoln was re- igious because he was brought up hy a Christian mother, He also read the Bible. Lincoln led prayerful life. He knew God and called on Him. For these reasons he was re- hgious because religion is the deep feeling in oneself of the dependence of God, Rev. MT. Schneck said. The traits of character that make up a Christian life are torgiving heart, a trust in God, humbleness of spirit, and last, knowledge of sin, and fight against it, he said. Rev. MT. Schnnck will speak again next week and his subject will be "A Black Eye"

Chicago, Feb. 13 -- ]. Malcolm Bird, managing editor of the Scient- fife American. declared in sl ad- dress last night before the Medill School of Journalism that psychic phenomena genuinely exist.
 "There are real spirit voices though we have no proof that they are spirits" he said. There are genuine caivoyants who can see pictures of the past, present and future. There are spirit writings which display power far beyond the ability of the writer"
 And there are even more surpris- ing genuine phenomena in the field of the objective or physical mani festations," {.
 He said that at least half of the so-called spirit mediums are fraud ulent and outlined many of the fakes uncovered during the testing of mediums by the Scientific Am erican committee, which offers two $2,500 prizes for proof of genuine manifestations.
