Through fife Static

here was CnnSlderd ble static flying around, although volume seemed tt
 be pretty fair. We didn't strike any.
 thing extraordinary, but that might
 have been because we didn't try. A
 lot Of fun was had in running hero
 end there and back again. Some oi the noise We hate to lay at Static's door, because 1t sounded more like faulty electrical contacts than any thing else, However, let it go. To- nights another night and we can't do anything about last nights con ditions now. In fact. we couldn't do anything about them then, but, as Moran or Mack say. Whats your .idea in bringing hat up?"
 
 Lambert Murphy was superb from
 WIZ WBZ last evening. He sang several songs of a semi-c classical type, accompanied by the Maxwell instrumental organization. His voice is particularly adapted for broad
 casting, losing none of it's sterling tones in its trip from the micro phone, through the complicated ap- paratus that sends it out on the air i in the form of radio waves.
 The Early Birds, through WTIC, offered an interesting variety of se- 1 lections from the crystal studio at ! the radio show. It might be of in i terest to know that dance organiza- l.. L,I in that studio as they do at the reg ular studios of the station. for the reason that so many echoes fly around in the broadcasting room at the show. If the bands played full strength there would be nothing much more than a blat of sound. The Early Birds had a vocal soloist who sang several choruses, but we can't say much for his work because he sounded off considerably. He was just & shade off the key in several numbers and he didn't seem to be exceedingly familiar with the first one he sang. Among the numbers played by the aggregation were Dancing Tambourinc" and a med ley of Irish tunes,
 The American Advertising assoCi- ations held their annual convention
 in Washington, broadcasting being conducted by WEAF and WRC. Kreisler's, ,"Old Refrain" was played pathetically by Godfrey Ludlow well known violinist from WJZ's
 staff of musicians. The orchestra played "Pomp and Circumstance" and there was excellent singing, too.
 The Campus Carollers, from Wt,AE'. paid visit to Dartmouth last evening. suitable place to go since the Yale-Dartmouth game IS in the offing. The Carollers present. ed Dartmouth songs in an acceptable manner, marching songs and college favorites in good style. They seem to sing in unison, however, which, we suppose is all right, since the cheer ing sections don't. as a rule, har- monize to any great extent. The an nouncer gave us considerable dope regarding colleges in general.
 w.opez Speaking came out of the loud speaker after awhile and we listened to the orchestra, meanwhile trying to avoid listening to Vincent. Bob Henshaw sang 'Where is My Meyer?" accompanied by his ukulele. The band played several entertain ing numbers, although we detected several rather old ones in the group However, they were played well, so what do we care"
 WMSG, New York, which came through extremely loud, presented soloist who played Lis | ten To The Mocking Bird" provld- ! ing many variations of the maln , theme. Then came 'Home, Sweet | Home" The oiperator, whoever he { was. certainly knew his stuff, we'll hand him that free of charge.
 The Orphcus Instrumental quar- let of New Britain held forth from WTIC beginning at 10:10 last night. the instrumenting being done in the crystal studio of the radio show be- fore a large and interested assort- ment of onlookers. There was also a larger assortment of listeners than usual in and around New Britain-- unless we are bad guesserS. The req son: The last number of the fine program was "The Woods at Dusk, written and scored for flute, violin, cello and piano by our office buddy, George Hahn. We are not going to make this bird feel too good by say ing too much about it, restraining ourselves sufficiently to merely men ion that the piece had that some hing which compelled undivided at cntion.
