Through tie Static

By the time things sorted them solves out and became quieted down and the evening had decided just how 1t was to be booked in the radio reviews, it was nearly Il o'clock. We would not have recommended the early part of the night. No sir! It sounded as If somebody was throw ing things. Really it did. There was static and several unidentified noises which later died on their feet. There wasn't a great deal of volume early in the evening. either. And then again the stations were all mixed up with each other. 50 we had 6 great old time. Along about 10 o'clock things changed 50 that we were able 10 say that we were enjoying the proceedings. The buzz, which was jollying the lower wavelengths along between 6 and o'clock, broke down and gave up until midnight, when 1t came back again, but with its spirit broken. We've got 1t on the run. boys. We've got 1t on the run!
 Here's . little announcement that will Do of interest to many fans who make q practice of tuning in on WNAC, Boston. It seems that Jim mic Gallagher and his orchestra will be missed from the ether channels for quite some time, because the management of the Checker Inn, where Jimmie held forth, has been changed. Jimmie isn't playing there any more and his orchestra has been disbanded. After a much needed va cation this popular leader, whose Still Hanging On" has become a by word with WNAC listeners, will re- turn to WNAC with his piano and vocal solos. but he will not have an orchestra with him.

 WEAF. New York, didn't come through with any sort of volume | until late in the evening. We heard . Vincent Lopez and his orchestra playing All Alone Monday" from The Ramhlers," this being the first of that stations contributions we heard all night. There was great &C., cent on the bass section and, for some reason or other, the bass horn pounded for all It was worth. WEAF faded considerably and every time it went out WTIC came in. Vincent played I'm On My Way Home" and Emil countered with "I'd Love to Call you My Sweetheart"
 WRVA, Richmond, plowed through | scattering stations hither and thither on the lower waves. In spite of the | Virginia broadcaster's great volume, though, a penetrating whistle accom- panied all its efforts.
 The Old Dominion orchestra. still at WRVA. took a trip around the oity. furnishing popular dance tunes on the way Many places of interest were visited. Upon the return to the
