His death will be. a shock to all who ever saw him. The kids used 70 idolize him and the older ones 70 respect him for his efforts to have 2. team in this city.
 Although Jim Lynch's Gascos haven't been doing much in the last week because of the poor baseball weather, there is an outfit getting under way in the town with the ex- pressed intention of hauling down the colors of the Meter Readers. To those who make it 2. part of their weekly interest in baseball to visit Walnut Hill park and see the various teams working out, the appearance Of some Of the real old veterans of the diamond in practice has been q, source of surprise and at the same time conjecture.

CAMELs are made of the choicest Turkish and Domestic tobaccos grown. To prove what we say about Camel's tobacco quality, make this test:
 Take Camel and any other cigarette. Tear of the papers and place the tobaccos from the two cigarettes in separate piles, Now shake them up and examine the to- baccos. Your own eyes will quickly show you the difference, how the Camel tobacco is longer and of riper color. Then gather up the two piles separately-and smell them,

New Britain baseball fans of IS or l6 years back will especially grleve the passing Of Dan O'Neil. president of the Eastern baseball league. Dan owned the New Britain team in the New England league and brought the Cubans, whose fame as baseball players will never die, to this city. This was the first introduction of Cubans into organ ized baseball and today there are some 50 of them playing with vari- ous teams.

Through tie Static

Last evening was a remarkable one for volume, clarity and absence of static, considering the fact that you don't mind the fact that we bor- row the words from an old popular song. Every wavelength seemed to fairly leap into audibility as we turned the dials back and forth in search of entertainment. True, there was slight disturbance on the lower waves, but this was to be expected, and it interfered not at all with the transmitting stations. There was slight fading, but it was only slight, so don't worry about it. Conditions up to g o'clock, when this para graph was written.)
 We hit a pretty good feature yes terday afternoon when we tuned in on WIZ, New York. which, by the way, was coming in extremely loud. The artists were Alice Marguerite Hawkins, soprano, and Willard Rob- inson, baritone. Miss Hawkins and Mir. Robinson presented a program which surely should have had a place on the evening presentations from that station. They should have had a larger audience. by far. We tuned In on the station at about 4:30 o'clock, expecting something rather mediocre, and our surprise lNo ir,.o n o1 NIyha hit fhp aforementioned feature. Miss flaw kins' voice is of an exceptionally pure and appealing quality, and Mr. Robinson reminds us ever so much of Fran Frey, or rather he sounds as we imagine Fran would with training. The voice had all the pleas antness of Frey's, with the added smoothness of training. Among Miss Hawkins numbers were the famil- jar Little Boy of Mine" and "A Lump of Gold" MT. Robinson sang his own compositions, all of which were lifted above common popular ity by the fact that they require study before they can be rendered. 1 He provided his own acCompani- ment Among his selections were Lonely Acres" Rhythm Rag, " The Devils Afraid of Music" and two piano solos, Niagara" and My 1 Kind of Blues"
 l So much for that. Without a doubt WRNY, New York, is one of the greatest pests on the air today, or tonight either for that matter. That station has absconded with a
 wavelength approximating S75 me- ters, and it succeeds very nicely in ruining large share of WGY's pre- sentations. The station was ever au- dible in a distorted way last night.
 From WTIC, Hartford, came the Goldman band. This organization furnished one of it's usual delightful and colorful programs direct
 from the Hall of Fame, New York University campus. The program
 was selected from the works of Eng
 fish composers and the melodies were, in many cases, familiar. Take,
 for instance, Sweet and Low" and
 the excerpts from the Gilbert and
 Sullivan opera, "Pinafore." Needless
 to say, WTIC handed us a nice ren-
 dition of the music and transmitted
 everything perfectly.
 As time wore along things started
 to get a bit rough, but not enougf
 to make more than a passing note
 Of the fact.
New Britain herald., 1926-07-27

And so we bring our happy little nrogram to a close. We'll be pack on the air tomorrow. Good alter noon!
 That's all for today, thanks!

WPG, Atlantic City, operating on full power, nearly blew us out of the chair with it's great volume. A group of Russian Grand Opera artists, together with Thavius' band, offered a program in a very, very serious manner. The tone of the mu- sic was excellent and we enjoyed the concrt, especially the excerpts from Carmen" that famous opera dedicated to the Connecticut com- pany.
 Orchestral comics have always bored us considerably, because when an orchestra tries to be comical the results are disastrous, nine times out of four or five, to take advan- tage of the obvious. We heard one of these "comics" from WIZ, New York, in the course of the Maxwell Hour, and we nearly died of ennul' There are lots of instrumental aero battles, passing as laughs. shorts and so forth, over which the listeners are supposed to chortle merrily. The name of this number was "The Sklp- per of Toorerville." By the way, WIZ faded to a great extent after darkness set in. A delicate little number by Chopin, Minute Waltz was offered as a flute solo, and this made up entirely for the bad opln- ion left by the Toonerville tune. Now you might have enjoyed that humorous selection, but-Well, why argue about it? We really enjoyed the medley of children's tunes which was played later in the program.
 Hot and Heavy, another one of THOSE numbers. was played through WHN, New York, by Char lev Strickland's Palisades Park dance orchestra. It was stated that the number was being played for the first time, and what of it? There was nothing very unusual about it, although there were several oppor- tunities for some 'hot" musical en- deavors.
 WAHG, Richmond Hill came through very nicely and we heard one of the evenings most enjoyable little programs in the form of pop ular selections by a mandolin ana guitar trio. The music came through sharp and clear with never scratch to mar the smooth surface of the at mosphere. Lonesome and Sorry. and q Told You I'd Never Forget You" were among those present.
 And then from WBAL, Baltimore, which waltzed all over the place during most of the evening until 1t finally settled down to steady trans mission, came the strains Of My Heart Will Tell Me So," pretty waltz played in a pretty manner by the VEAL dance orchestra.
 And so we bring our happy llttle nroeram to a close. We'll be back on the air tomorrow. Good after noon,
 That's all for today, thanks

Aid, Calling 1t Political.
BY the Associated Press.


OLYMPIA, Wash, June 26.-De-
claring that he has no faith in ''polit-
ical Investigations, Gov Hartley has
written a letter to Gov. Harry F..
Byrd of Virginia. in which he states
that in his judgment the proposal Of
Gov Byrd to have the Federal Trade
Commission investigate the increases
in the cost of gasoline since last
February would simply be another
opportunity for a bunch of lame ducks
and political tramps to climb on the
backs of the already overburdened
taxpayers.
Gov. Byrd wrote Gov. Hartley, urg-
ing that he write President Coolidge
and ask that the commission be IN
structed to make Investigations.
THE constantly increasing encroach-
ment of Government in business is
expensive" Gov. Hartley wrote. our
country is suffering terribly from that
malady today, l should like to see
governmental interference greatly cur
tailed rather than increased"
