TRACK SECRETS
BY Sol Metzger-

The we'll trained easy runner
always swings his arms parallel
to the course he Is running. That
is the style of the runner pictured
at the left. He really uses them to
lengthen his stride and actually
pulls with them as he swings along
the track.
A good many runners fail to use
the arms in the correct way. They
swing them back and forth in front
of the body as the runner pictured
on the right is doing, which pre-
vents them getting as much dis
tance on their stride as is neces-
sary if one wishes to become

.<cut Down the Size.
Point was given to the decline OF
the large windjammer in 1920 when
Sir Thomas Linton and the New York
Yacht Club cHp committee agreed to
race with 70-foot sloops, instead or
boats of the usually 90-foot waterline.
The expense of building, outtitting
and manning the larger type OF sloops
was given as the reason for the reduc-
ton in size and 1t was because of this
that the big racing and cruising sail
yachts had been disappearing long
before the Americas cup season or
1920. :,
Now there are no out and out sail
ing Yachts of more than 20 feet water
line length afioat in either the cruis-
ing or the racing classes. The older
generation of racing yachtsmen has
died out, and their places have been
inadeuuately filled, thanks to the
automobile and other landward diver
sions which were unknown when Sir
Thomas first challenged in 1899.
Simply Speed Machines.
AS for the Americas cup yachts,
they were speed machines purely and
simply. They were not weatherly
craft, were good for nothing but
racing, and since their building, opera
ton and maintenance involved an ex-
penditure around million dollars.
one will sympathiZe with the attitude
OF the custodians of the cup that the
game was not worth the candle.
In the face of present market con-
ditions, the New York Yacht Club is
hardly likely to give three rousing
cheers if Sir Thomas submitted
challenge. For the idea of spending
a ton or so of money to build a yacht
qualified to sail over a 30-mile triang-
ular stretch of salt water in a mini
mum of time is not apt to strike any
American as either utilitarian or
sensible. Just now, anyway, the
Americas cup as vital issue is below
mar.

Stephen Mather, director of the na- tional parks and several guests inter ested in park development will leave Seattle on August fl, arriving at Nc Kinley park a week later, according to James L. Galen, head of the Nc Kinley Park Transportation company, who passed thru Seward the forepart of the week en route to the park where he will remain for number of weeks. The party will be accompa- nied by Governor Parks and Colonel James G. Steese of the Alaska Road Commission. An extensive trip into to the reserve will be made by the group and it is anticipated that MT Mather's visit will result in an appro- priation for extension of the present road from Sanctuary to Copper Noun tain, a distance of 50 miles. With such a road completed, all of the at fractions in the park will be easily accessible and MT. Galen believes a larger influx of tourists than ever would be brought to Alaska by req son of it.

Inductance and Capacity as Forms
of Inertia-Part I.

There have been many explanations
of inductance and capacity, and their
effects on an electrical circuit. Many
of the explanations offered have had
as their object the idea of explaining
the effects produced and not the ex-
PLANTATION Of the way in which the ef-
fectS were produced.
Many of these analogies and ey-
plantations are familiar to most radio
fans, but for the benefit of those who
have not read them l will list a few
of the better known ones.
The effect of inductance and capacity
in tuning q circuit has often been
likened to the effect produced by vary
ing either the length or the thickness
of the string of n musical instrument
such as violin, piano or harp.
Vibration of String.
Shortening the length of q string
will increase its rate of vibration; de-
creasing its diameter will have the
same effect. Increasing the ten
sion will also increase it's rate of
vibration. All these expedients of in
creasing the rate of vibration or fire.
quency cause the production of a note
Of a higher frequency than the
original. Conversely, increasing the
diameter, lengthening the string or de-
creasing it's tension decrease the rate
of vibration or frequency, and cause
the production of a note Of lower fire.
quency.
The usual analogy that is given is
that inductance corresponds to length
Of string and capacity to tension of
string or vice versa. In the case of
the string, decreasing its length and
It's diameter or increasing the tension
increases the frequency. while in the
electrical circuit, decreasing the in
ductance and capacity increases the
frequency.
The important point to remember is
that any given frequency may be OBJ
tanned by a proper selection of the
length, thickness and tension of the
string.
In the string, for instance, any
given pitch within the limits imposed
by the diameter of the string can be
obtained by an adjustment of the ten
sion or length of the string. The ad-
justment can be obtained either by
varying the length or tension alone
or by varying both of them, either in
dependently or simultaneously. In an
electrical circuit, the frequency of the
circuit can be varied either by chang
ing the capacity or inductance singly
or by varying both values of induct-
ance and capacity independently or
simultaneously.
Another analogy is that of the tun-
ing fork. In the tuning fork the pitch
depends on the length of the fork and
the thickness of it's prongs. 80 that

Cuban broadcasting stations are

Of station 6-I<W and chairman for
cuba of the international radio week
committee.
Announcements will be in Spanish
and English from practically every
station on the air in these special
tests, with increased power possible
from a number of the more important
broadCaSters. Cuban stations also Will
observe the silent hour from IL to II
each night, when all American and
Canadian stations will be off the air to
permit listeners hearing special pro-
grams broadcast from overseas. On
Saturday, January 80, between HAS
and Il midnight, Cuban and Mexican
stations viii be the only ones in the
North American Continent on the air,
and listeners in Canada and the
United States may expect to hear sta
tons never before recorded in their
logs during this short period, accord

any given pitch or frequency of vibra-
ton can be obtained by a proper adj
justment of the length and thickness
of the prongS.
The principles which apply to the
production, of a sound or q desired
frequency or pitch with a string or
tuning fork also apply to the reception
of a sound by sympathetic vibration
of string or tuning fork.
If a string or tuning fork is prop
erly adjusted or made, il can be
caused to vibrate at it's proper fire.
Quency by the production at some dis
lance of a vibration of a frequency
equal to that to which the string or
fork is tuned. Similarly, If an cleo
trical circuit is tuned to n particular
frequency by a proper adjustment of
inductance and capacity, a current can
be produced in the circuit by the pro-
duction of a radio wave from another
electrical circuit which is tuned to the
same frequency as the receiving cir
cult.
Further explanations state that the
impedance or opposition to flow Of a
current in the tuned circuit is prac-
tically zero for the frequency to which
the circuit is tuned, but very great
for all other freQuencies, so that only
the current of the frequency to which
the circuit is tuned will flow in the
circIIit
