A. C. Receivers GAIN in Favor But
Trail Battery Sets

A. C. receivers, meaning those that
operate without batteries from the al
ternating current house supply, are
gaining in public favor very rapidly
but are still less used than the battery
equipped sets. This is shown both by
reports from dealers and by the re-
lative quantities of the DC and AC
tubes being manufactured.
In cities, where electric house light
ing is usually found. there is little
doubt that the A. c receivers will
soon completely outstfip the old type,
but in rural communities the sets are
necessarily operated from batteries
and probably will be some time to
come. AS the demand for radio re-
ceivers in farm localities represents
a large amount of business, manufac-
turers must necessarily make both
types Of sets.
The whole difference between the
so-called AC and DC sets may be
fairly said to be one Of convenience.
In operation, life, results and ex-
pense there is little to choose be-
tween the two, but in convenience,
the elimination of all batteries makes
the AC set much superior.
The advent of the &C tubes and the
&C sets has materially helped the DC
set users in that it has considerably
lowered the price Of nearly all of the
DC tubes.

Radio Quartet Surpass Those
ON Stages
According to Freeman H. Talbot,
who Is studio manager of radio sta
lion KoA at Denver, Colo, and is
director of the KOA mixed quartet,
radio is developing better vocal quar-
tets than the concert stage has been
able to produce.
"The reason is that director can
appear with the quartet when it sings
over the RADIO says Talbot. "He can
maintain its performances at rehear-
sal standard
Also, the singers have to depend en-
irely upon their singing and not par
tally upon pleasing appearances or
tage effects for their success.
Room for Batteries

electrically operated receivers, there

Knockout Blows Are
Injurious to Brain

Stockholm, May 2.-R-Knock-
out blows in boxing matches are
permanently injurious to the brain
and not seldom fatal, declares DR..
Waldemar Gaardlund, Stockholm
physician who advocates their
adjustment.
He reports several cases where
the brain of q boxer who died from
a knockout blow showed nc morbid
changes, but part of the ce-ebrum
AZ we'll as the base of the brain
were covered with q layer If blood
half an inch thick. This subdural
bleeding Is explained, he says, by
the serious tension which arises in
the skull from the blows, causing
the blood vessels to be :o:n away
from the arteries.
DR.. Gaardlund's words If warn
ing are echoed by another Swedish
scientist who points out that every
Knockout blow me ans q conclusion
of the brain which may eventually
cause idjocy.
These statements have aroused a
discussion in Swedish SPORTING cir
cles as to whether it would be ad-
visable to introduce a counting of
points and do away entirely with
the knockouts. but boxing experts
declare that this would reduce the
number Of spectators at boxing
matches since the patrons always
