AVERAGE FARE
ON THE AIR

The noise makers came out for
b little desulteFy practice last
night on the wave lengths and
pitched and tossed atmospheric
sheet iron, or whatever IL is they
rattle, quite q bic during the
earlier evening becoming weary
IN the late hours and only hurting
q deafeuing crash every little
while. Programs Of powerful sta
tons were heard above the din
with volume and clarity. The
Middle West appeared to have the
best Of especially in the later
hours.
The plans Of mice and men,
"gang far aglee," were the only
striking things about the wave
length deliveries last evening, &C.
cording to the best reports obtain
able from able substitutes who wore
earphones and listened to loud
speakers while yours truly was
taking an evening off.
The mice part of the program,
which came in the early evening
hours from Arthur J.. Poole. Of the
National Musem staff, made quite
O. hit with one or two Of these
listeners. Some of the facts re.
lgarding the invasion of California
past fall by rodents and the desper-1
ate struggles OF the native sons to
prevent the invaders using up too
much Of the glorious climate, made
an interesting is minutes Of the
usual WRC science talk.
The production Of 'Pinafore," by
The Sodero forces of WEAF, was
not up to the standard Of that or.
ganization, we're told by one lis
tener. 1t is the third or fourth
time the Gilbert and Sullivan classic
has been provided by the same
group and the singers did neither
themselves or he opera justice,
we're informed. The story Of the
famous Regent diamond by the
Perfect Diamond entertainers, was
reported to be a fair, bit of drama
and the program of the toothpaste
aggregation just about as usual.
Many listeners missed the Davis
@ctet from WRC deliveries and re-
ception OF its program from WIZ
was not quite as satisfactory as It
might have been because Of the
noise. The same holds true for
most of the outside programs. The
Army Band concert, which started
things nnusically for WRC, provided
a program mostly made up of
marches, which the band plays
better than any other form of
music.

WAR MEMORIAL
FUND LAOS

Disappointed at returns for the
District war memorial, but deter.
mined to reach their goal and Sc
cure the funds necessary for its
erection, campaign workers re-
doubled their efforts today to bring
the amount subscribed high above
the total of $4,000 reported yes
terday.
Workers were encouraged by q
communication from the Veterans
Of Foreign Wars, stating that It's
posts in the Capital are now work
ing to deliver a large contribution
to the fund by the end of the
week. Assurances were also re-
ceived from the grand voiture of
the Forty and Eight" honor So
ciety Of the American Legion, that
that organization viii work for the
memorial.
The Washington Boys Indepen-
dent Band, c. j. Brown, vice presi-
dent and manager, and J. L. Kid.
well leader. today offered its serv.
Ices $50 strong. neatly. attired in
new uniforms" in any way in con-
nection with the memorial. Two
concerts will be given by the band
at the Earle Theater, Friday eve.
ming at o'clock and 1850 o'clock,
the management having offered to
pay into the memorial fund the cost
Of securing the professional talent,
in place Of which the band Will
play.
Mindful Of the fact that the Red
Cross appeal for the flood relief has
caused an unwillingness on the part
Of some Westinghouse to sub
scribe to the memorial campaign,
directors in the campaign last night
issued a statement to workers de.
claring that the appeals should in
no manner conflict, as both are
widely different in nature, and both
are deserving Of Washington's sup
port.
