JUDGE RULES SEARCH
WARRANTS ARE NEEDED

san FRANCISCO, Dee. 14.-Au-
thoritics in Alaska have no more
right to search private homes with
out search warrants than officials
in any other dominion of the Unit

in Alaska, it was ruled here by
Judge William James of the United
States circuit court of appeals.
The district attorney of Alaska
claimed that under the bone dry act
search without warrant was legal.

 While he was i'll, he said, the crew of the boat was arrested and, fearing arrest, he fled to Colombia, from there going to the Canal Zone and then to San Pedro.

Through fife Static

Last night was really "brite and fair" with excellent volume and no static at all until about 10:3O o'clock. After that time there was some static, but this did not inter- fere with programs. Chicago stations came through very loud and the evening was one of the best in weeks, if not in months.
 We made a brave start yesterday afternoon at about 4 o'clock, getting fine attack of the creeps for our trouble. These creeps were brought on by worthy glorying in the name Of Joseph G. Guiger, who recited from memory several dramatic poems, among which were Kipling's If" and Boots" Boots" was the immediate cause of our palsy imita- tion. Those of you who have heard that number done well know how blood curdling it gets toward the end. The words of the poem aren't especially eerie, but if the poem is to be put over at all the person re- citing it must gradually assume the manner of crazy man. Mir. Guiger did for fair yesterday. We have heard several renditions of the poem and there's only one we like better and that's Taylor Holmes interpre- tation, The program came through WIZ, New York, clear and loud.
 
 Miss Dorothy Dixon was one of the early performers on the evening program of VICES, New York. She sang several songs, among which were two rather flat numbers, Sos Your Old Lady" and Evolution" an original composition inspired by the evolution trial in Tennessee. We al- ways figured that trial would have bad effect on the nation at large. After Miss DXon's endeavors came talk on golf by Charles Wilkinson. His subject was Keep Your Eyes on the Ball" He gave out a great many live tips on the game and his chat should have been interesting to golf fans. VICES made a show of it. self early in the evening, failing to come in much louder than a whisper. The station got ambitious later, though.

tra entertained with an attractive ly served up program of dinner mu- sic from WGY, Schenectady. The station was steady and the music was enjoyable. No Foolin'" and "On the Riviera" were among the selections played.
 WNYC, New York, rather ragged around the edges, offered Beggs' band from Prospect Park, Brooklyn, as one of a series of concerts handled by that station during this summer. "Old Kentucky Home" with variations, accent on the vari- ations, was one of the selections and we noticed that the bass section transmitted particularly well. "Swanee River" was another. From WTAG, Worcester away up in the code, was heard the Eveready orchestra. This group presented a variety of numbers, including the lighter popular things and bits from the light operas. Parade of The Wooden Soldiers" and the overture from Gilbert and Sullivan's Condo Hers" were played.
 Not entirely satisfied with recep- ton from WTAG, we shopped around a bit and brought in the same orchestra from woe, Daven- nort. NEEAF. New York. and WTAM, Cleveland. WTAM came through better than any of the others.
 
 We managed, by chasing the train
New Britain herald., 1926-08-25

out of the station, to swing aboard the last coach as one of the crack fiers on the Pennsylvania system started out on it's weekly trip from WIZ. We didn't mind the effort, since the program was worth it. A baritone solo of Gypsy Love Song was rendered, and the Penn Key stone orchestra kept things moving with dance music, among the num- bers being "Tinga-Ling" and While the Years Go Drifting By" both of which are among the most tuneful of recent releases. Then a tenor sang "Tenderly." It was well done, but We had business elsewhere.
 Eddie Adams, at WBZ, Springfield, whom the announcer dubbed "The Singing Pianist" held our attention longer than did any other feature last evening. His voice was not af- fected as he rambled through the numbers with sort of a devil-may- care attitude that was distinctly DltGoliteos llC Hcl0 11O oIOhS4L SlL tIAC keyboard and his running accom- paniments were decidedly slick. His voice was not at all of the vaudeville type and was pleasant to hear. Among his numbers were Am I A Fool?" "The Girls Think I'm Won derful," Running After You" and 'She Was The Dog-Catcher's Daugh- ter" to the tune of "Just Sailors Sweetheart" A very refreshing pro- gram.
 KDKA, Pittsburgh, dashing through with plenty of volume, of fered the Symphony Players and some fading. One selection was "Gavotte," by whom we don't know. The announcer didn't think it nec- essary to give the name of each number and apparently went over in a corner to sleep several times. The music was deep and pleasant to the ear. The tendency to spread all over the map was with KDKA, and the late program could be heard four points off the wave on either side.
 We had some more reviews, but there are two announcements we want to make first. One Is that John B. Daniels, for more than a year one of the leading announcers on the staff of WIZ, has been transferred to Washington, and in the future will announce the principal events on the programs of WRC in that city. Edward B. Husing, formerly with WRC, has returned to WIZ.
 The reception to be rendered Ger trude Ederle by the city of New York upon her arrival in the United States Friday will be broadcast by WNYC, the municipal station. The affair will be staged at City Hall. WNYC will commence broadcasting at noon. There will be a special mu- sical program, speeches by Mayor Walker, Miss Ederle and others, and many other features interesting enough to hold the attention of an "eat-and-run" monday audience.
 That's all for today, thanks!
