Station WIZ will be directed by the
National Broadcasting Company.
Station WIZ, it is declared, how
ever, will be the central service sta
ton for new broadcasting net
work and will not be rged with
the chain of broadcastins stations
interconnected by wire with WEAF.
Station WIZ, directed largely by it's
present personnel, will continue to
broadcast its own programs and
serve the, same listening public
which it has always Co nded.
Unified program direction. 1t was
pointed out, would not only permit
the greatest possible broadcasting
of fine programs to the public, but
would insure non-interference or
interest in the broadcasting of such
great national events as might be
put on the air.
"The need of program lance as
between station and station" Mr..
Aylesworth asserted, particularly
in the case of WEAF and WIZ. has
been one of the most important re-
quirements of radio broadcastine.
Time and again the listening public
has been forced to sacrifice one
great musical feature for another.

stages. The fact that power tubes
are necessary in order to prevent
distortion where smaller tubes are
overloaded Is now well recognized
and the power tubes form an esses-
tan part of the modern receiving
set.
The trend In cabinet design is de-
cidedly toward the console models al
though there. is still very large,
volume of sales in the table types.
The indication now is that the pub
lie has come to regard radio as
permanent fixture in the home and
therefore feels that the receiving set
should be properly housed in its own
individual cabinet of the console or
furniture type.
Another very definite trend is to-
ward the elimination of batteries
through the use of power units which
take the current directly from the
socket and make it suitable for use
as A, B, and C battery current. With
out question the trend in this direc-
ton is growing very rapidly wher-
ever power Is available. Another year
will see the most tremendous de-
-velopment along this line probably
obsoleting many thousands of re-
ceivers of the battery type. The adj
vantages of being able to press a
button and have an unfailing supply
of current availale at any time Is
eliminating the difficulties of worn
out or run down batteries and the
necessity for recharging batteries,
which is a considerable problem in
the hands of the layman.
The ban of wave lengths assigned
in the United States to broadcasting
ranging from 200 to 545 meters is
now definitely inadequate to take
care of the large number of stations
that have already been established.
More than 500 stations, with humid
reds more contemplated, are now en-
deavoring to use some SO channels
separated by ten kilocycles The re-
suit is chaotic condition only re-
lieved by the fact that in any loca-
ton it Is always possible to receive
several of the higher powered sta
tons without severe heterodyning or
interference.
However, any night now, any place
in the United States, the majority of
the lines on the dial will bring in
nothing but heterodyne whistles.
This is a condition that should be
corrected but which requires legis-
lation. Many of the broadcasting
stations that are now occupying the
present band will necessarily have
to discontinue or will have to be as
signed wave lengths in a new band
OF frequencies undoubtedly below 200
meters.
1t seems only fair that the pioneer
broadcasters should be entitled to the
use of wave lengths that they have
prospected and developed and that
newcomers should be compelled to
develop new wave lengths with the
Idea that if the broadcasting on the
new wave lengths justifies the public

This event was carried through
in a splendid manner, through the
thoughtfulness Of the committee in

pleased with the entire evenings pro-

is little doubt that it will become an

The first number on the program

Portland Commandery, No. of Port

Osborne, and the "a picked men in
this squad, with the two platoon lead
ers, staged bewildering series of
evolutions in perfect time but most
battling to the spectators. The mem
bers of this drill squad proved be-
yond doubt that they We're the best
in the New England states, at least,
and many felt that they could COM
pete on even terms with escorts from
any part of the United States.
Immediately following this exhibit
ton the Sir knights of all Com
manderies in full uniform but without
sword, conducted their ladies through
the grand march and circle. Follow
ing this grand march the members OF
the order changed to informal dress
for the remainder of the evening.

Miss Alma Temple, a talented young
dancer who has not appeared In pub

applause. Miss Temple, who is but
II years of age is now a resident of
Augusta, but her stage work has been
done in Boston and at Palm Beach

feathers was very colorful and the
graceful dancer was obliged to re-

Later in the evening the Sir

bouquet of roses, and a large basket
from which she drew favors to be
presented to the ladies. These favors
took the form of gold vanity COM

set with beautiful colored stones.
These compacts were very pretty and
will be cherished by the ladies'.
Many difficult feats of legerdemain
were performed by, Prof. Ernest A.
Carter of Portland, well known ma
gician, who after having once demon
strated a trick favored his audience
with an explanation of how it was
accomplished. The trouble was that
his explanation always had some sur
prising ending which further served
to mystify his audience. Prof. Carter
is very clever prestidigitator and
his work was highly complimented by
the audience.
The Madeline Talmadge ladies' or
chestra of Boston, which furnished
music for the various dance numbers
also played one or two concert num-
bers for the entertainment of the
gathering, before the regular profram
had gotten under way. Their music
was very fine and added much to the
pleasure of the evening.

Boston. Dec. 9.--(P)-The good name
of Tombstone Ariz., was defended in
a deposition read in Suffolk probate

The deponent was Wyatt S. Earn of

The Trend of
Radio DEVELOPMENT

The following statement in regard
to the trend of radio development
was made recently by Powell Cfos-
ley. Jr., President, The Crosley
Radio Corporation, Cincinnati, Ohio.
The trend Of radio affairs seems to
be in the direction of tuned radio
frequency models having two and in
some cases three stages of radio
frequency application with detector
and ordinarily two stages of audio-
frequency application
Much development has been made
during the past year or two along
the lines Of improvement in the

through one system of stations,
while another may be broadcasting
a major musical program.
Then there is the need of balance
in the character and type of pro-
grams broadcast.
Under the arrangements made by
the National Broadcasting Company
with WIZ, the radio public will
have the widest choice Of programs
through two chains of broadcasting
stations"
