In going the rounds naturally I run
across a number of ideas that perhaps
haven't occurred to the average per-
son interested in radio. 1 meet all
kinds of people under many varying
condition of radio. One of the
things that has been interesting me
in particular is the fact that peoples
ideas of radio reception differ largely
with the caliber of the program.
One evening recently l had call
from one of my customers saying that
the set was becoming unusually noisy
and that tone was entirely lacking. /
said that j would be up to look over
the set and make what changes were
necessary, but that l would be de-
layed possibly an hour in getting
there. When I arrived I found my
customer entirely satisfied.
"EverythinS's all right now," he
told me. I'm sorry brought you out
here on wild goOses chase, but pos
sibly you can explain what happened
to the set awhile ago and suggest
some way to avoid it happening again
in the future"
The quality of the reception was
anything but desira bic, and that gave
me a clue. Instead of looking to the
set or it's owner, l considered the ma
ture of the program being broadcast.
The fact that a prize fight was on the
air occurred to me to be the real rea-
son for the owner deciding that the
set was working properly again.
find it makes a great difference
what comes in over the air. If pro-
gram is unappreciated by the listener
he is likely to allow his attention to be
diverted to the operation of the set
itself, whereas if the program is very
absorbing he will not even be con-
scious of static.
am quite certain from this obser-
walton in my experience that many
radioists do not obtain as good recep-
ton as they think, while, on the other
hand, there is a large group that is
very critical because the programs are
not attractive enough for them.

SAVING OWN LIFE AT COST

Correspondence of the Associated Press.
BERLIN.-To push another person
off a boat in order to save ones own
life IS not murder. the German Su-

An East Prussian woman teacher OF

on a Mecklenburg lake this Summer.
when a sudden storm arose. The two
battied bravely with the waves, but
soon realized that the task was
hopeless one. To make matters
worse, the boat sprang leak.
The teacher. who was the stronger
of the two. pushed her male friend
into the water in order to save her.
self. He was drowned. The girl was
rescued, but was arrested on the
charge first of murder, then of man
slaughter.
Her lawyer found a provision in the
law to the effect that anybody who. in
order to save his own life or that or
a near relative, kills another person.
is not guilty. He cited the provision.
The court acquitted the teacher.
