is making this experiment in the interest Of

A Public Advisory Council
In order that the National Broadcasting
Company may be advised as to the best
type of program, that discrimination may
be avoided, that the public may be assured
that the broadcasting is being done in the
fairest and best way, always allowing for
human frailties and human performance, it
has created an Advisory Council, composed
of twelve members, to be chosen as repre-
sentative of various shades Of public opin-
ion, which will from time to time give it the
benefit of their Judgment and suggestion.
The members of this Council will be an

KEMSINGTON AND RED SQX
 TO PLAY DOUBLE HEADER
Team Managers Want to Catch Up On Dates For Series Games-Both Contests to Be Staged in Kensington, One On Saturday and the Other On Sunday-Cor- bin Club Has One Victory Over Buckley's Crew Empires Assigned For Days.

The Corbin Red sox and the All- kensington baseball teams will play weekend doubleheader this week in order that they might catch ID on the games in their series. Ths teams have met only once and al- though they were scheduled to play a week ago last Sunday, rain in~ terfered and now it is found that the season is growing SO short that unless the games are doubled Up, the series will hardly be finished in time.
 The first game will be played in kensington on Saturday afternoon and the second will be played there on Sunday afternoon. This will give the fans Of the city who are inter- ested in the play, plenty of oppor- tunlty to watch the teams strug- Gling against one. another, and after the exhibition put Up by Kensington last Sunday, there are many who are figuring on the team. 10 pull through with two victories and get in the lead on the Sox.
 According to the hot dope, Ken sington will use Charley Yale and Bucholz on the firing line while the Sox will use Berg and Flynn, it is expected. The two games should bs pitchers battles and without a doubt, the Saturday afternoon attraction will be one that will be. well worth watching. .... -..-.
 Managers John Tobin Of the Red Sox and Fat Buckley of kensington agreed last night to double up for the weekend and in this way, the fans will have plenty of opportunity of seeing two fine games of baseball as the season is waning.
 The games will start at 8 o'clock sharp on both days. Eddie Crow ley and Jimmy Maher are sched- uled to umpire the first game and Crowley and McKeon will be in charge of the second contest on Sunday Crowley represents the Corbin Red Sox and Maher and Me- Keon, Kensington. The managers also agreed to have the Connecti- cut Co. furnish the bus service from upson's Corner to the baseball field and back again and all conven- fences possible will be furnished to the patrons of the games.
 This will leave two games to bs played between the teams if Ken sington wins one of them. Ths series was originally scheduled to run to three out of five to a decis- ion. Kensington holds unique place in the baseball standing as the team has evened matters up with the Falcons and played 19 innings last Sunday 10 tie with that team and 1t has suffered one loss at the hands of the Corbin Red Sos,

PAWNEES TO OPEN
 SEASON ON SUNDAY
Local Eleven to Tackle Name SakeS in Meriden in First Game

The Pawnee football team of this city will open the 1926 season Sun day in Meriden when the Pawnees of Meriden face the locals at Brook side Park in the Silver City. A real battle is expected to result from the meeting despite the idea that Sun day is little early for the season to get under way.
 The teams are evently matched and have been practicing diligently for the first game. The contest will start at 2:30 o'clock and very prob ably eight minute quarters will be played. It will be the first chance this year to watch the working Of the new rules.
 The local team is a wcll-drilled organization. Each player knows his bit and although the plays which have been worked out are only a few, these will be so well known that perfect execution is expected. During the practice sessions, the backfield especially shows great CO., ordination.
 The Meriden Pawnees are q strong organization but they will have to be at tip-top form to out-leg the New Britain team. Both teams are veter- an grid combinations and the fans who attend the game should see a real battle.
 The locals will lineup as follows: Maguda and Ziel, left end; Delldon- ra, left tackle: Bergoni, left guard; Ravagnani, center; Poglich and Schultz, right guard; Tosatti, right tackle: Peterson and x. Collossa, right end; W. Turner. quarterback Quarti, left halfback, Genattia, right halfback and F. Turner and M, Col lossa, fullback.
