after midnight. the dancers enjoyed
themselves to the utmost.
The presence of the Pomona col

songs at the request Of the commit
tee III charge of the dance, and
won rounds Of applause from those
who We're present They also help

though widely discussed at present, Is

serious consideration Is being given
the proposal by the Department of

AS soon as radio engineers have
learned how to control absolutely the

certain wave lengths might he re-

programs, on which all stations par

required to transmit.
Advocated at Conference.
The suggestion of the chain wave
length was first advocated at the
fourth national radio conference by
Norman Baker. owner and operator
of station KTNT. at Muscatine, Iowa.
1t was answered at that time bv en-
g'neers of the Westinghouse Electric
and Manufacturing Co, who explain

able to broadcast one program on one

effort to bring about Legislation that
would compel all chain brnaicasters
to use only one wave length when

ing In the circuit.
Fig. shows the equation In the
form used to solve for resistance
when voltage and current are given.
In practically every case the manu-
facturer of vacuum tube gives the
current which the tube will draw at
it's rated operating voltage.
Draws One Ampere.
The UV-200 tube for instance, will
draw one ampere at five volts. If we
use current source which will pro-
vide voltage of five volts across the
tube filament terminals, and connect
the vacuum tube filament directly
across IT, thus operating 1t at FIVE
volts. the f7la"ent will draw a current
of one ampere.
BY Substituting the formula Of
Fig. to determine the resistance of
the circuit we will find that the volt
age five, divided by the current flow
ing in the circuit, one ampere, will
equal five, and that is the resistance
of the vacuum tube. neglecting re-
sistance of leads, etc
Uses Six Hundredths Ampere.
The filament of the UV-199, how
ever, is rated as drawing O.06 amperes
at three volts. BY substituting values
in the equation of Fig. we find that
the resistance OF the filament of a
UV199 tube is so ohms.
The way TO find the resistance of
any tube filament, then, is to divide
its rated operating voltage by the
current which the tube draws when
operated at that voltage
