500 Hunters Report.
ed Marooned in Woods
Shipping on Great Lakes
at Standstill = Several
Vessels Wrecked.

Saulte Ste. Marie. Mich. Nov. %
R-The upper Michigan peninsula
district continued today In the griy
OF blizzard which has trapped
hundreds OF hunters In the storm
area as we'll as tied up shipping
along the ST. Mary's river and the
Lake Superior district
So severe has been the blow to
navigation that marine men fore
cast a premature end to the lakes
shipping season. With weather bu
reau officials predicting much cold
er weather for today accompanied
by continuation Of the snow storm
some anxiety Is felt regarding the
safety OF scores Of hunters snow
bound in the district. A fifty mile
gale which blew the snow into great
drifts along roads made those lanes
impossible for automobile traffic
and hundreds of hunters who jour
neyed to the wooded district in
machines were forced to abandon
them and were reported attempting
to make their way on foot to the
nearest railway centers. 1t was es-
timated that more than 500 hunt
crs we're trapped IN the sparsely
settled districts by the storm.
Heavy losses will be sustained by
lake shipping due to the storm. it
is believed.
AS the result Of low visibility
caused by the snowfall, practically
every ship In the region yesterday
was forced to tie up at anchor.
The freighters George H. ingalls,
and the William X. Fields were
still hard aground last night-the

Ascertained With
Simple Apparatus.


That 1t is not beyond the means Of
tive average radio fan to calculate the
constants of his own tubes is amply
proved by the enlightening article on
this subject by Keith Henney, labora-
tory expert, in the Especial Shows
Number" Of Radio Broadcast magazine.
The only apparatus necessary. besides
the tube socket, rheostat, batteries, and
perhaps, potentiometer to control
grid bias, consists of two meters-a
double-range voltmeter and a milliam-
meter. The former should have ranges
of from o to 10 and 0 to 100 volts,
while the milliammeter should read up
to 10 mills, and, as higher readings
may be required Of 1t, shunt will be
necessary. The object Of a shunt IL
to enable higher readings than the
maximum figure marked on the dial
face to be read.
In his Radio Broadcast article Mr..
Henney explains how the ampiifcation
factor, plate impedance, mutual con-
ductance, and d. c. and a. c. resistances
may be found. Here It Is intended
briefly to outline his method Of arriv-
ing at the plate impedance.
Suppose It is desired to obtain the
above characteristic Of standard
COLA tube. We first Of all set up our
apparatus as shown in the accompany
ing Fig. 1. Here voltmeter Is shown
connected across each Of the three sets
Of batteries, but, Of course, our one
double-range meter is all that is nee
essary, for only one reading Is taken
at time. The grid battery should pref
erably consist Of storage battery or
several 11a-volt batteries, 80 that 2
volt or 1h-volt variations are possible.
A potentiometer Is not shown In the
diagram but one may be used to ad-
vantage for varying the grid bias.
How 20 Proceed.
The set-up complete, we place our
voltmeter across the filament posts Of
the socket and adjust the rheostat un-
til the meter reads volts. For our
first curve, that shown as Ego on the
chart, we shall omit the grid battery.
Eg represents grid bias.
Having obtained a piece Of graph
paper and marked It off similarly to
the chart shown herewith, we are
ready to proceed. We adjust the "B"
battery voltage in 22h-volt steps and
read the plate current for each step.
Thus we are able to plot curve such
as that one marked Ego on the &C.
companying chart.
To get the plate impedance at zero
volts grid bias then, we utilize the fol-
lowing formula, in which Rp repre-
sents the plate impedance:

Signals Stronger in
Dark, Scientist Says

Proof of the theory that shadow of
"opaqueness" rather than ether is the
conductor of radio waves was OBJ
tanned at q test made at the govern
ment air mail field at haywood, ILL.,,
according to A. j. Musselman. orig
inator Of the "opaqueness" theory, who
conducted the test with the co-opera-
ton Of A. Frietag, government radio
operator, and others.
The antenna Of government low
wave transmitter and the aerial Of a
receiving set were placed in the path
Of a 100000, acknowledgement search
light, 1000 yards apart. FrietAg then
sent the Morse alphabet, while Mussel-
man and others were stationed at the
receiving set with an audibility meter.
Signals came through stronger, &C.
cording to Musselman, when the great
beams of light through which the
waves were made to pass were turned
off. The scientist said that the lack
of difference in the strength Of the
signal when the light beam was merely
switched away from the antenna and
aerial, but not turned off, also was
favorable to the theory.

densers in this circuit were matched
with the others.
The reason for this IL simple. While
the circuits controlled by the second
and third condensers by virtue Of the
fact that they are both fed from the
plate Of a preceding tube, the circuit
tuned by the first condenser Is being
energized by the antenna and ground
system, and is therefore unlike the
others in characteristics.

sible the ganging CAMDEN tuning) of
the three circuits BY means Of the ad.

sistance, its grid circuit being un-
tuned. To the output of the new tube
is connected the former input Of the

input Of the two r. +. stages and the
detector circuit are all connected to

Tandem Tuning condensers.
Tandem tuning Of condensers, to de-
crease the number of separate con-
trolls, has become quite common. There
are some fundamental facts concern
ing tandem tuning which must be
considered If satisfactory results are
to be obtained, and these are inter-
estingly outlined in short article in

in which the tuned circuits work must
be exactly similar in each stage be-
