Through tie Static

Conditions were excellent over the weekend for the average fan. It was only the fellow who sat up after midnight, who got into slight diff ! culties, since statical disturbance
 started to brighten up the dials late
 on each evening. It was present in small quantities early. but 1t didn't assume really disturbing proportions until the stroke of ? had died away in the distance. This may be due to the fact that it was possible to bring in stations Of great volume early in the evening, while the percentage dropped as the lateneSs increased. Thus, the strength of the static was emphasized.
 As for bloopers and buzz, they were both present, although the latter was not particularly bother some. It was there, however, don't forget, it. The bloopers made life miserable on both days. afternoon and evening. In case you people don't know what we mean by "bloopers, just listen in on some station tonight and when you hear blood curdling scream and howl come shrieking down on the wave. that's a blooper. Most of them just hang on the wave with the Set oscillating like all get out. Then the only thing to do is to find some other station. Never fear, the chances are that the same fellow will be right there soon.
 On Saturday evening at 6;05 o'clock we tuned in KDKA, Pitts burgh, Or rather, KDKA tuned us in. There we heard a talk by an ex-cir- GUS clown. He is 70 years old and he delivered an interesting talk on circus life, giving us few of his per sonal experiences. He spoke of one time when he was in London, he was with Barnum & Bailey, by the way. A man approached him and asked him to sing one of his songs to his (the man's) little daughter, who was sick. The clown went to the little girls home and sang to her. and she later recovered from her illness. He

He played "The Gray Champion" "Col- lege Medley" "A Cozy Little Flat, and lover The Fence"
 Saved By Grace" was the title of a quartet selection which came through without damage from WEI Philadelphia. It was very we'll done and we suppose you are wondering why we don't say. "Who Is Grace?" We'll. We will, Who is Grace?" WIZ, New York, and WEAF, the same town, came through very well. We brought in others. also. but you know we have to combine two days in one and we can't use too much space in talking of Saturday night. An excellent example of poor sportsmanship came to us from WLS, Chicago. on Saturday evening, and our estomation of that station, here tofore one of our favorites, has dropped. Why they should let an an- nouncer such as they had for the hockey game, officiate at the micro phone Is more than we can see. This fellow took it upon himself to report the Chicago Boston hockey game. He seemed to think that he was a vaudeville act. however, and he continually entertained CD the fans with remarks that had nothing to do with the game and only served to make things more confusing. He was of the type that can see no good in any other team but the one hailing from the home town, in his case. Chicago, and his story of the game was given entirely from a Chicago angle. When not actively engaged in describing the game he spent his time delivering crude jabs at the visiting team and the play CTS. Certainly he was no man for the position, out of fairness to those who want to hear hockey game and not an alleged comic monologue. He was by far the poorest announcer we have heard, and that's saying con- siderable. We hope he sees this. He certainly didn't add any medals to WIS, that's cinch. Suppose Phil Carln should stoop to partiality dur ing one of the big football games.
 
 Last night was excellent. It was possible to bring in almost anything without any trouble. for fact. At WEAF, New York, we heard Reinald Werrenrath, world famous baritone, in a program. We thought his best number was "The Grenadier." In ad- dition to singing the numbers, he de- scribed each selection he presented and, as result, we were well enter tained.
 We have never found anything to beat those western stations, as far as

ROBERTSON MAY
QUIT FOOTBALL

PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 15.-Law-
son Robertson will not train the
Philadelphia football team next year,
according to the rumor that was on
the campus today. Although 1t was
impossible to get any official word
on the rumor. it was not denied by
any one the parties concerned.
The famous mentor of the Red and
Blue, who ranks as the foremost
trainer in the country, is said to be
giving up his duties as trainer Of the
Quakers so that he may devote all
of his time to track and field, which
is his speciality. For the past few
years, Robbie, as the Quaker coach
is known to his friends. has been
hindered in his track coaching by de-
voting so much time to training the
football eleven.
Ernest B. CoZens, graduate man
ager of the council on athletics, who
was the only official member Of the
council on athletics who could be
found, had nothing to say in the
matter. f"Ernie" was in his office,
but he would neither deny nor af-
| firm the rumor.

Necessary In
Golf Serving
BY Charles (Chick) Evans Jr,

Personally, / do not favor the
moving or turning of the BODY toQ
much. Most people twist very clum-
silly. The length Of the back stroke
is exceedingly important as it must
not be too short or too long espe-
cially the former. Right in here,
think of shooting out at the mark.
When the little tug is felt at the
left shoulder socket, the wrists bend
the clubhead straight backward
instead of roundedly toward your
body, You have reached the point
where you should be conscious OF
starting whipping the stroke. Re
member, you are not to loop this
shot or throw the club head out OF
the proper descending curve.
The action of the club head at
the half way mark OF the pack
stroke should be that OF
not think Of digging your
strength into the shot before the
cluhhead hits the ball.
Now comes the important break
Of the wrists at the top OF the
stroke. You should get just enough
of it. Do not ever be in too much
of rush that you do not walt Tor
this break. Do not confuse TINS
with a quick jerk. Rather break
your wrists gradually after the first
two feet.
It rather comes from relaxing
bit. You should feel it. Be leisurely
about it. The wrists sort of dip the
cIubhead in towards the shoulders
but not enough to get you off your
balance. The bendin should be
towards and bisecting the angle
formed by your right shoulder ana
head. It should be a coming-in or
dropping-in from the backmost
point.
There are those who find n
slight pause at the back give
rhythm. What you want Is
something back there which will
give you something more Of
hit so the ball does not stay on
the clubhead after meeting 1t.

FORT WAYNE, Ind, Dec. 49,
Fort wayne's professional basketers
lost to the Cleveland Rosenblums
by the margin Of one point in J
thrilling overtime game here last
night. The score was rs TO rs.
The teams were tied at 20 points
when the regulation period expired.
Nat Hickey's free throw was the
only point registered in the extra
session. 1t was a heart breaker
for the home guards TO lose.
Cleveland took the lead at the END
OF the first half by IL to 10, when

of the big ten conference will be
held here the latter.-part of next
month. ii was announced today. Six
representatives from each of the
ten Western universities will attend.
one of the principal objects of the
meeting. according to Major John
L. Griffith, conference athletic com
missioner, will be the working out
of a system to equalize competition.
The public is insistent, said Major
Griffith, that the conference sched-
ule be so arranged each year that
there will be no question concern
ing championships.
Many other questions will be dis
cussed, it was said, with a view
of standardizing all phases Of inter
