Through tie Static

There was considerable static last evening, although there was also lots
 of volume. Fading was not present
 anywhere and We were able to bring
 in several stations which would have , been lost to us otherwise Cn account
 of the static, just because there was so much volume. Stations Were re-
 markedly sustained, as far as tone :, went.
 At 6:30 o'clock We listened to an excellent dance orchestra from 1 WTIC. Hartford. which station is
 satisfying the desires of the dinner ! dance loving public by furnishing dance music in the early evening
 several times week The Eaga- bonds should be signed up as a reg
 ular feature. since they are about as
 good as any visiting orchestra we nave heard at the station. and q ] whole lot better than a lot Of them. 1 The orcheStrations are carefully ren- dered and the instrumentation is i finn and clear, and also businesslike We really were pleasantly surprised
 at the manner ill which tbe mum bers were played. The tones were full and well rounded and. while the band ! didn't try any trick stuff 10 speak of, 1 1t proved its abilities to handle
 dance music in q pleasing rhythm.
 Sam. The Old Accordion Man" and
 many others were played.
 |
 ! The usual snapping and cracking,
 noticed each evening from 6 until z
 o'clock, was with us last night, al though, again as usual, 1t quit after about an hour. WEEI, Boston, and WAC. of the same town, were working hard, and We heard WEAF, from the Waldorf Astoria. present. | ing dinner music. Shortly before 6 o'clock We heard Graham McNamee covering" the Philadelphia Brook lyn baseball game, through WNYC, New York. The last We knew, the game was still going on and it was about 6 o'clock. The station waved in the breeze like tiutterins flag, drat it!
 We quit until 10 o'clock, going back on the tour Of inspection just as Wendell Hall. the Red Headed Music Maker, and his ukulele were being heard from WIZ. The station vas loud and it put the static 10 shame. Get Away, Oll Man. Get
 Away" in Wendall's pleasing bari tone. or bass. as it strikes you, proved pleasing. "Ain't Ths Sunshine Grand and The Ham Bone Am
 Sweet,' We're also played and we en-
 joyed hearing the familiar voice which was absent from the air chan nels for so long. (Sob. Sob. Sob) WBz, of course, boomed in all evening. It didn't stop for static or anything, tramping over the dead and dying and crushing old men and little children under foo. with all the power of it's wattase. or some thing else. We heard the Minor Doyle dance orchestra play I'm In Love Again and "Tampico." Slick
