WHY some SETS
| ARE SILENT

Among the various complaints
| that find their way to this dis
pensary Of radio activity have come
several from earnest persons who
have learned how important radio
has become in their lives through
the difficulty they are experiencing
in tuning WRC. They get little or
nothing Of the very good programs
WRC broadcasts from its studio,
though they are lucky in missing
some Of those shoe-string transmits
sions from WIZ that break into
little bits when some one blows q
bootleg-inspired breath on them.
And they want to know why.
Among the things we enjoy not
knowing most II all the doofunny
jargon Of radio technique. All we
know ID what comes out Of the loud
bpeaker-and that's all we are inter-
ested in. But we are interested in
restoring to the living rooms that
have missed them, those tunes of
various sorts that should come
from the loud speaker. So we re-
ferred this matter to Bill Sweets,
and he in turn referred It to the
chief engineer OF WRC, or some
body Of that sort, and we learned
this:
That the broadcasting antennae
Of WRC runs north and south and
that receiving sets north and south
are likely to be best served by it.
The broadcasting antennae Of WCAP
ran east and west and receiving sets
east and west were best served by
it. The sets that are most affected
are crystal sets. The only remedy
the engineer could offer was the
suggestion that something more
powerful than q crystal set be pur.
chased by the out.of-luck east and
west set owners.
We asked the engineer why
couldn't the antenna be put on q
swivel and turned around or two
sets used. and ell we got for that
was . look Of contempt. And that's
that-or AZ much Of It as we could
get information about.

What individual play lost the game?
There were several that might have
and Babe Ruth, although on the Win
ming team, was a complete bust in
the sixth inning. But that is like a
big infant. When he is not the big
gest frog, he is as likely to be tad

Wild Heave Fatal.
Sherdel went a long way toward
losing the game for the Cardinals
after the gritty little chap. who has
done so much good service for his
team. had carried on winning con-
test up to the tenth. When he made
Il wild pitch in that inning which put
Koenis on second without the neces-
sity of sacrifice, the Cards were fiat
on their backs and defending their
goal. Then Ruth got a base on balls
and Bob Meusel came along with a
sacrifice, which he can do more
artistically than Ruth anyhow. Then
Sherdel gave Gehrig a base on balls
and there were three runners on base
with only one out.
Tony LaZZeri marched to the plate
with Manager Higgins injunction
ringing in his ears to hit q long fly
anyhow. SO he did. out TO Hafey, and
koenig scored the winning run. Odd
that 1t fell into the lot of kOenig, who
has played more different varieties of
base ball in this series than there are
eggs in a crate, to score the winning
tally
GaZella. who had come into the
game because Paschal had pinch hit
for Dugan, was hit by Sherdel. That
was another sign the young man was

NOTRE DAME-GOPHER
CLASH IN SPOTLIGHT
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press
CHICAGO, October S.--A fair share
of MidWestern foot ball interest in
Saturdays games descended on the
University of Minnesota today with
knute Rockne and his 1926 Notre
Dame machine.
The renewal of traditional Missouri
Nebraska hostilities at Lincoln tomor-
row draws Missouri Valley attention,
but an IS. r. O." sign over the 55, 600
seats in Minnesotas stadium served
as straw to show the bent of West
ern Conference and general fancy.
Notre Dame is a headline attraction
in itself, and Rockne's first Fall in
vasion of the Big Ten ranks makes
the tilt the days classic.
Some share of the spotlight flickered
on the rather elusive Christy Flana
gan, Notre Dame back, who is hailed
already as one of the years sensa-
tions. Otherwise. particular individual
attention was drawn to Illinois own
aspirant to the place Of Red Grange,
Frosty" Peters.
The Illini meet Butler, the game ap-
preaching the Minneapolis clash in
Big Ten interest, in that it Is a cur
tain raiser for the IllinoisIowa home
coming classic next Saturday at Iowa
City.
The coming conference race also
was reflected at Michigan. where Yost
is frankly making Saturdays contest
with the Aggies an incident In prepa-
ration for Minnesota a week later.
Wisconsin's varsity had to forget the
Big Ten battle to think about Sat
urdays game with Kansas, where
Coach Cappon has been polishing up
an aerial game he studied under
Little when the Badger coach assist
ed at Michigan.
Chicago's Maroons were concerned
with the game Maryland brought In
from the East, and Indiana's field was
shared with the invading Kentucky
Wildcats.

ing home today to finish the world

But the general feeling along Broad

Odds of 2la to and to l were
offered that the Yankees win the
series. 1t was rather significant. how

tanner, scheduled to start the sixth

that Alexander, if he started, would
not finish the nine innings.
Commissioners estimated that moro

Sixteenth Field Artillery Reds of

The 10th Artillery malletmen won

battle was stubbornly waged despite
the score, until the final period, when
dashing work by Capt. Tate, who

Gehrig could have scored. but Tony
didn't.
In the sixth the Yanks got start
on things. Pennock hit to left field
and Hafey fell over his toes and the
hit went for a two,bagger. O'Farrell
caught Pennock off second and Theve-
now lost the ball. That was twice
Pennock should have been out. A
great catch was made by Combs in
the sixth inning of line drive by
Hornsby. 1t was a sure three bag
ger If he hadn't speared 1t. Gehrig
made beautiful catch in the tenth. Of
Il low. looping fly batted by Flowers.
But the oldest part of the fifth game
was that the combination of Koenig,
Meusel and Lazzeri won it for the
Yanks, assisted by Sherdels wildness
and that combination hadn't been bat
ting a lick. And that goes TO add
more proof that this game of base
ball is one that is unfathomable as to
its percentage Of luck.

CAN'T AFFORD TO BE TRICKY

A woman bought a basket of
grapes at market, thinking they
were white grapes. The top
layer was, but underneath were
blue grapes.
She had made the purchase
from John, an old market man,
from whom she had been buying
fruits and vegetables for ten
years.
Do you think John would try
to put anything like that over
on me?" she asked her husband.
Don't be silly" said the hus.
band. DO you think John is a
fool? He is a good business man
and thinks too much of your
trade"
When the woman reported the
incident, John was as much sur.
prised as she.
THAT teaches me a lesson, y
he said> "A peddler drove in
here with those grapes and offer.
ed them at a price lower than
have to pay my regular commits
sion dealers. [ never saw the
peddler before, and I'll never
see him again. I've learned
something. Here, take a good
basket"
You see the moral of the tale.
The established business man,
who is seeking to build up per.
manent trade. cannot afford to
be tricky. His common sense,
his self interest, prompt him to
give his customers an honest
deal. .-Ex.
