Through tie Static

Happy thunderstorm. And the same to you, sir, thank you. Of last evening we have the impression Of a somewhat distorted nightmare. As We listened. thunder storms ragged in the distance and the crashing of static were fearful 10 hear. The whole thing started late in the after noon and kept up, increasing in in- tensity until along about 1o o'clock. when things started 10 clear up again. During the greater part Of tho evening there was disgusting amount Of fading which caught LIS amdships and near caused us 10 founder.

 Although we hal rain in this city. we guess. H.G didn't get any thunder storm, that is, not while We were conscious. But somebody else was getting some awful blows. judging by the crashes which echoed in our receiver. Every station was affected, even the usually trustworthy WB/, which rocked and bobbcd around like a dory in storm. The low waves received worse treatment than did those on high. although the en- tire system wasn't anything that we'd care to encounter alone on B dark night.
 We managed to tune in WIZ, New York. and we stayed with tha. station until the storm suhsded. if it was storm, Ir was Somet hing, but we're not sure what sounded like an airplane raid.
