RADIO ACTORS TRAIN
VOICES AT SCHOOL

LONDON, March 19 (P)-Radio actors
and actresses are under training at
the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art.
The British Broadcasting company
has had the greatest difficulty in
casting radio plays in such Il
manner that listeners could really
distinguish between the voices of
the members of the cast
Kenneth Barnes, principal of the
Royal Academy of Dramatic Art, has
many Of his most promising students
under special training to n 9et the
needs of the radio drama and the
broadcasting company has offered
substantial prizes which will be given
to the two students who become most
proficient as wireless actors.
When students use theatrical voices
listeners-in shave little difficulty in
visualizing the speakers, but such
voices are not pleasant over the
wireless. If. the speakers use a
natural, easy voice it is extremely
hard for listeners-in to distinguish
between them. In fact, the great
audience is often completely lost if
speakers take up their cues with the
same promptness they do in the
theater. IE01 l.

cottonwood in Arizona. Asked how big
it is, Taylor replied that the tree is "a

FLY CUTS DEEP
IN PRODUCTION
OF BEET SUGAR

CHICAGO, & March q (P)-Climattc
conditions ana the prevalence of
white fly has cut deeply into AmerI-
can production of beet sugar the
United states Beet Sugar association
was told today in the first of it's
two-day session by Harry A. Austin,
Washington, secretary.
Austin said the 1926 beet sugar
production was below that of 1926,
III Utah and Idaho, he said, there
was a decrease of 2,7OO,O00,OG
pounds of beet sugar because of the
ravages of the white fly. The de-
crease in Michigan was given as
only 20,O00.000 pounds because of the
heavy rains during harvest time.
So far no methods has been found
to eliminate the fly menace, although
Austin said the United States de-
partment of agriculture was seek
ing a means to check it.
Sugar is collected from the at
mosphere through the leaves of the
beet" Mr.. Austin explained, "and
the white fly eats the leaves. Scien-
lists who have been working to find
parasite that will destroy the fly,
deserts of Arizona or Mexico, as it
appears only in dry spells and does
not attack the beets if there is con-
siderable moisture"
An effort to have the American
farmers rotate beets with their other
crops every four years is being made
by the association, according to Mr..
Austin. Y -s%aa
