Amateurs Want Radio Training.


American amateur radio operators
to the number of 1860 have respond
ed to an invitation of the Naval Com
munication Service to enlist for spe-
cial radio service and training in the
Reserve Corps, according to Comdr.
Glassford, in charge of this national
drive for the Navy Department.
Sixteen thousand letters were mail
ed out recently, chiefly to members of
the American Radio Relay League.
and the responses. totaling over so
per cent, is considered remarkable
Most of the replies were from young
sters. although a nuplber from men
too old to be accepted in the Reserve
Corps were received. Commanders Of
the several naval districts are now
following up the letters, formally en-
listing the applicants for this new
practical radio training.
Amateurs in the ninth district, with
headquarters in Chicago. and repre-
senting the Middle Western States,
showed the greatest interest, indicat-
ing that many farmers sons desire ma
rine and naval radio communication
training. In many localities large num-
berS of amateurs are already partict-
pating in the regular weekly drills
with the Naval Reserve. Arrange
ments are being made in each dis
trict to give the young operators prac-
tical experience at either naval shore
or ship radio stations. Enlistment in
the Reserve Corps requires only that
the applicant he an American citizen

BERLIN, June 19.--Louis Schaurte,
the nestor of fashionable Berlin cooks,
has "a ledger which records the ia.
vorite dishes of hundreds of per-
sonages he has served in the last so
years. The former kaiser's favorite
dish is given as "schlesisches himmel.
reich" q savory combination Of boiled
bacon, dumplings and stewed pears.
Schaurte said that during his half
century of experience he has found
musicians to be addicted to diet diff,
ferent from other persons. Liszt,
Rubinstein and Sarasate, So he said,
were confirmed salad lovers. Painters
almost invariably like meat and
plenty of it. Actors he found omniv.
orous, but even 80 years ago, he as
serted, actresses were just as anxious
as now to preserve their figures, and
accordingly forced themselves to keep

Hoover Studying Radio Law.


The Department of Commerce is
making a careful study of possible
radio regulation under the existing
law. in order that it will be in a posi-
ton to proceed against all violators,
in the event new legislation is not en-
acted this session. No action against
offending broadcaSting stations VIII
be taken. however, until Congress has
adjourned. If no legislation is forth
coming, Secretary Hoover may be eX-
pected to force an issue through the
courts, since he must either have au-
thority to control transmitting sta
tions or let all who desire broadcast
how and when they wish. One ruling
of the District of Columbia court is
to the effect that he must issue
licenses to all who apply, while under
the Chicago decision applicants could
choose their OWL wave lengths.
Obviously, If these interpretations of
the 1912 law were followed, there
would be no need for q radio regu-
latory body, since it would be With

would be the sufferers. 1t is believed
that the whole of the broadcast sys-
TEN would soon be disrupted, al
though a few of the highpoWered sta
tions might be able to hold their wave
channels and continue to transmit
their programs.
The Departm of Commerce's au-
thority to limit the power Of broad
casting stations also is a question
which may be contested by stations
desirous of increasing their wattage.

With the increase in the number
and quality of paid and courtesy
broadcast programs, which INCLUDE
many stars and high-claSS features,
the So-Called "chain hook-upS' are
becoming more popular and extensive
There are today seven radio circuits,
or chains Of stations, which broad
cast certain features simultaneously.
!. No. longer is the famous Bell system
chain the sole circuit to offer enter
tainment OF this caliber to seVeral
communities at one time.
The competition began when the
Radio Corporation, General Electric
and Westinghouse companies began
to tie up their stations through the
use of telegraph wires. Today 1t IS
possible to connect, not only WIZ,
New York WRC, Washington, ana
WGY, Schenectady, but also WBA,
Springfield; KDKA. Pittsburgh; III
XIX, Hastings: KOA, Denver; kGO,
Oakland; KYW. Chicago, and NCAD,
at Canton, y. Y, which make q cham
almost as extensive as the Wear
WCAP ct al circuit, and literally q
longer croSS-country hook-up.
In the Pacific Northwest, stations
KGW, at Portland: KFOA. Seattle, ana
KHQ, Spokane, have combined Tor
the mutual. exchange of good pro
grams. XII, at Los Angeles, and kPO,
at San Francisco, are also understood
to swap their best features by inter-
connection.
Some of the New England stations
have also connected their transmitters
on occasions; WEAN. Providence;
WNAC, Boston, and WLWL, New
York, all now controlled by the Shep.
nard Co., are hooked up for special
features. WIP, Philadelphia; WGbS.
New York, and WGP, Atlantic olty'
tic up so that they can carry a single
program when found desirable.
Another scheme for the handing
of indirect advertising features Is
sponsored by Norman Baker, owner
Of KTNT, who suggests that the
smaller stations combine to transmit
simultaneously on the same wave
lengths, but without interconnectlon'
That is, each station would carry
similar programs Independently, Put
on the same wave. to avoid utilizing
so many channels for the same
program.

WIZ Lightens Summer Program.

WIZ LlghtenS SufnlIleT EEOSIdhi'
Acting under the knowledge that
the radio audience prefers to be en-.
tertained with the lighter forms of
music during the torrid weather, the
management of WIZ is revising all OF
its broadcasts during June, July and
August to meet this preference. Many
of the classical music organizations are
giving wav to the lighter forms OF
music and those which remain VIII
play the mi-claSSical or more popu-
lar selections. Three dance orchestraS
have already replaced classical ensem-
hles for the hour of dinner music ana
further substitutions of dance music
between and s in the evening are
expected to be made in the near fu-
ture. No charge is contemplated Tor
the final hour of broadcastlng from
| WIZ, as that hour has always been
| devoted to the lovers of syncopatlon'
For the classical music lover there
will be the Semi-weekly concerts or
the New York Philharmonic Orches-
| ira.
Not only the hours of dinner music
will be affected by this regeneration
process, but the good will broadcasts
! from that station as well. All of the
| inpreSarioS who are in charge or
these radio productions have been in
| formed that the management of VIZ
has made careful inquiry as to the de-
sires Of the listening audience for
| Summer entertainment, not only
through the medium of the various
radio editors, but also through direct
inquiries sent to the listeners, and that
an Overwhelming majority has shown
preference for lighter entertain
ment-light, wholesome music-not
frivolous programs, but still not the
heavy, classical entertainment so
popular in the Winter months. Talks
are to be limited to the smallest pos
sible number and only on most vital
subjects.
