, nal, whereupon the chief operator faded out the park orchestra and put the hotel on the air. This was done by turning two volume dials simultaneously, gradually increasing the sound of one orchestra and di- minishing that of the other. Imagine the surprise of the fans when they heard the announcement at the end of thepiece, Here we are at the Hotel Bond" The smoothness of control and ease with which the change was made were remarka ble. No strange sounds occurred, nor any appreciable change in volume. To all intents one orchestra played the dance number from start to finish. As far as is known this broadcast ing trick has never been done be- fore.
 Concerts of the New York Phil harmonic orchestra, August IS and 21, will be broadcast by WGY, the eastern station of the General Elec- tric company. Frederick Stock of Chicago will make his debut as conductor at the Lewisohn Stadium, New York, on those occasions. Mir. Stock graduated from Cologne Uni versity with the highest honors and was chosen from among 50 competi- tors as the first violinist of the fa- nous Municipal orchestra. He later came to America and joined the Chicago Symphony orchestra, suc- ceeding Theodore Thomas as con- ductor in 1905.
 That's all for today, thanks!

Through tie Static

No, there wasn't any fun las night, either. You ought to know that without asking. You know blamed we'll that there were thun- der storms all evening and how the dickens do you think anyone can listen in while such affairs are go- ing on. Don't be silly. Yes there was static and lots of it. In fact. most of the evening was a dead loss on account of it. No, we don't want many more evenings like that. Now go over there and sit down and don't bother us any more.
 
 From WIZ we heard part Of the moving picture productiin in "The Voice of The Silent Drama" period The play was The Amateur Gentle man." and the leading players in the picture took part in the presenta- tion. although we can't tell you who they were. Of course, this feature is distinctly commercial proposition arranged by one of the largest film producing companies. Nevertheless, each story is interesting and though we can't go much in detail suffice it to say that We had good time.
 We heard the Marine band from Washington, also through WIZ. The program was opened with National Emblem March," and this was fol- lowed by Poet and Peasant" over- ture. Migosh, how many times dur ing the past week have we heard that last number? At least once each evening. There seems to be an epi- demic of 1t for some reason. Of course, when well played, the num- Der can't be improved upon-when well played.
 The male quartet of the Rockville Baptist church offered an excep- tional program from WTIC. This group, showing the results of careful training, offered The Man in The Moon," Cold Storage" and Good night, Ladies', among others. They certainly knew their stuff. Then, of course, we heard the Manchester Male quartet, later. Two quartets In one evening, within a short time of each other. Such an arrangement is lia ble to prove disastrous to the sec ond one, as far as the listeners are concerned But such was not the case last evening. The Rockville
