Will Benefit by Radio
Channel Zones.

BY the Associated Press.
DR.. j. H. Dellinger, chief engineer of
the Federal Radio Commission, who is
primarily responsible for the technical
phases of the plan assigning 81 cleared
channels to each of the country's five
zones, said yesterday that reception
will be materially bettered" by this
new basis.
while all classes of listeners bene-
fit under the new ALLEGATION" he said,
'the farmers will be the chief gamers.
They will not only be able to receive
more stations reliably without inter-
ference, but practically all points on
the radio dial will be free from hetro-
dyne whistles.
1.-The city listeners will gain through
hetrodyne free reception of their various
local stations and also reception of
distant stations free from interference"

Gulf of Tehuantepec, off lower Mexico,
Mr.. Hoover proved that he has a real
set Of sea-legs. He was composed
throughout the gale, even getting some
sleep while officers and all hands fought
in the binding spray to tie down shift
ing planes and other deck equipment.
He laughed good-naturedly when his
own suite became flooded with water
from leaking portfolios, and, with Mrs.
Hoover, climbed next morning to the
signal bridge to watch the waves dash
over the bow. Frequently the spray
reached so feet or so to the bridge
and splashed it with water.
Neither the PreSident-elect nor the
First Lady-to-be suffered from sea-
sickness during the gale, although
Allan lost his appetite for the day, and
Mr.. Hoovers interpreter and stenog-
rapher, several of the newspaper men
and dozens of sailors felt the effects of
the rough sea.
Mr.. and Mrs. Hoover enjoyed hugely
the all-day reign of King Neptune as
the Maryland crossed the fateful
Equator. Had the former been eligible
for ducking. 1t is regarded as certain
he would have taken it with the same
good graceS as the others.
All in all, and aside from the major
objectives of the goodwill mission,
PreSident-elect Hoover is enjoying his
youth American voyage as much as, if
not more, than any travel experience
he has ever had-and he has had more
than most persons.
He will enter the White House great
ly rested and refreshed and stimulated
for the long four years of responsibility
ahead Of him. If the voyage accom-
plishes nothing more than that. it will
have served highly commendable pur-
pose at no extra cost to the Govern
ment. for the Maryland already was
scheduled to go to Valparaiso next
month on training cruise.
