Through tie Static

Static started early yesterday, some time in the afternoon, and kept up all evening, IL was so heavy on the low waves that we found it impossihl to bring in any thing satisfactorily. However. as the top of the scale was reached things became better and we experienced more success. Distance was present in theory There was fair volume in moderately near stations.
 
 We have only commendatlon for the program given by the Brown University Musical clubs at the Hotel Bond and broadcast through WTlC. Deep and resonant was The sound Of the voices. Clear and deep, also, was the music Of the banjOs Everything was put on in first class shape and the program, unlike those of many college gec and banjo clubs, was so varied that there was no chance for monotouy. Of course, all programs are enjoyed by those present a. such affairs. but To the person listening 10 the business end or q loud speaker, where he cannot glimpse the color Of the gathering, where he cannot feel the enthusiasm Of those around him, where he can not get the college atmosphere, too many numbers Of the same type .,l, ( sE e one blind when he is listening. All sensations come to his ears and by them alone can he judge. Sometimes poor transmission makes him turn aside. Sometimes unbalanced sing ing makes him seek other stations. There are other slight defects, for any ot which he may change his dial settings. But we didn't change last evening We stuck right with WTlC and the program, to us, was one of the best of that type We have heard to date.
 The WTIC Mail Bag contained many interesting questions, One Of the fans asked whl the listeners-in are kept in the dark regarding the age color of hair and general ap- pearance of the announcers. Tho answer was that contest will be 1 held in the near future, in which 1 fans will be allowed to guess what 1 the announcers look like. One writer wanted to know if the station is | going to broadcast baseball scores ! this year. The answer was that base ! ball scores have received little at tention from the fans of WTIC so far and the authorities at the sta | ton have been undecided as to whether or not scores will be broad cast. However. if the fans will write in, it was stated. they may be able to reach decision more easily. !
