 Hurray! We heard 6 Chicago sta ton, the first one in about two weeks. It was WSBC and it came in fairly loud, although without its usual volume.
 The National Baseball club ban quet, as broadcast by WNYC, proved to be large affair, Many prominent men were listed as speakers, among them Mayor James J. Walker Of New York, Augustus Thomas, fa- nous playwright, Governor Pinchot of Pennsylvania, Irwin $. Cobb and a host of others. We heard the talk by MT. Thomas and We enjoyed it greatly. It was one of the most hu- morous addresses we have had the pleasure of listening to, although il contained a great deal of sound logic.
 Mayor Walker laid on the oint- ment little bit thick. He compli' mented the baseball players right and left, stating time after time how good they were. In fact, he wen' right into sheer tiattery, and we feared that he would say at any minute that the game of basebal was responsible for his occupancy oI the chair of mayor. His talk was in' teresting, nevertheless. Senator Pep per was the next speaker, but it wal 12 o'clock and we left them. We un' derstand that WNYC was still broad. casting at 12:45 o'clock, and prob ably after that. @

Through the Static

A noise as of continuous applause came through on the set last night whenever the dials were in tune. When stations were coming through the noise seemed to be greatly ln- creased. And that was static and other noises which go to make up the horse from a different garage which fans have had to wrestle with lately. Last night was just as good as have been the nights for several weeks past. Maybe we had a wee Dit more luck, but not enough to say so. At any rate, stations weren't coming through the way they should. Most of them faded and at about 10 o'clock a noise louder than the rest weaved itself into the ensemble, sort of an undecided creaking noise.
