Through tie Static

The greater part of last evening was pretty fair, but along toward the end, static crept in like the sneaking { fend it is, and rather gummed the works 10 some extent Short, sharp. hurried blasts in rapid succession were featured and it was impossible 10 hear much through it. so heavy were they. Volume was excellent throughout the evening,
 Because Of the large number of requests received from fans, WTIC broadcast the baseball scores in the Eastern, National and American | leagues last evening. IL was the first time this season that the Travellers station provided this service, and 1t is expected that it will prove valu- | able 10 local baseball enthusiasts It is proba ble that this feature will be heard each evening at 1880 o'clock. The Father Matthew drum corps presented an excellent program at i WTIC. One of the features was that 1 familiar tune, "The Washington 1 Greys." As they marched away the music from the Capitol theater came | on the air, Bill Jones and his orches- ] tra providing us with the overture Of the second show. We've noticed an improvement in quality since the !. first broadcast from that theater. ! The music sounds deeper and more i natural.
 Omygosh, We heard The World 1 Is Waiting For the Sunrise" again 1 last evening. It WAS sung. and pleas ingly too, by a Mr. Weiner in the course Of the Reading Railroad Hour 1 from WIZ. The Seashore band of fcred excerpts from Naughty ! Etiquette" that tuneful musical show 1 in which Mitzi is starring in New 1 York.
 Nope. We're all wrong. We need sleep.

 The Travellers symphonic en- semble, through WTIC, offered one
 or the most novel programs Of the season, in the "Wcdding Music for ! Prospective June Brides" Wedding mrhic from all over the world WAS played and We enjoyed, for its un- { usual features. the Japanese we'd , ding march which would keep the
 parties involved on dead run If 1 they wanted to keep step with ii. l The entire program was commen- dable and a welcome departure from
 the usual classic concerts. We, for one. would like to hear more pro- grams Of that type by the Ensemble Not wedding music. Of course. but
 selections Of one type grouped to- gether like that.
 Every station We heard came through loud.
 Waddya know abon' that? !
 ! WOR. Newark. obliged us by be- ing audible for a change. The FlNe
 Messner Brothers played number
 of dance selections, the most re- membersble of which was 'I'd Climb the Highest Mountain. etc. Then we hit into WTAM. Cleveland, where baritone burst out with Gypsy Love
 Song" from Victor Herberts Ihe
 Serenade." Very nice.
 
 Behind The Clouds vas the final

 was immediately taken by the or
 chestra at the silver Slipper, where
 general bow-dee-doo was present. , ed, the patrons Of the club making 1 nearly as much noise as the orches-
 tra. One Of the numbers was "l
 Knew That Td-Something,' darned
 if we can read that writing.
