STATION TO OMIT
PROGRAM SPONSOR
WENR to Substitute "Dis'
tinctive Designation" for
Trade Name.
BY C. z. BUTTERFIELD,
Associated Press Radio Editor.

A radical change in program policy
which it feels may establish a prece-
dent, has been made by WENR, Chi
cago.
Effective today, its advance programs
supplied newspapers will contain nc
mention of the sponsors. Trade or cor
poration names will be substituted BY
a distinctive designation"
In addition the station proposes "tc
maintain a conservative advertising
policy that will not permit the broad
casting of advertising matter found OBJ
jectionable by listeners and which Is
not in keeping with the real purposes
of broadcasting and to bear In mind
that the first allegiance Of the broad
casting station Is to the listening pub
lic."
Campaign Recently Opened.
This new WENR policy is in line
with q campaign recently inaugurated
by the Radio Manufacturers Associa-
ton against what IL described as a
tendency by broadcasting TO devote
more time to the sponsor than was
hearers desired q preponderance Of en-
tertainment and might switch to some
thing else If q program contained what
some might feel was too much trade
comment.
In commenting on the use Of dis
tinctive designations" for programs
WENR officials referred to the gen.
eral adoption of the phrase Real
Folks" to describe. a sponsored N.B.C.
chain broadcast. within a short time, "
they said, the term Real Folks has
become so well known to listeners that
they understand exactly what is meant
when it appears in a newspaper. II
does not contain direct or indirect ad-
vertising. We believe that In the future
other sponsors will follow this leaG.
Wants to Please Listeners.
I'VE believe that We have the most
conservative advertising policy OF any
commercial radio station in the coun-
try. We believe that If we permit .
client to fill his period of purchased
time with detail in the form Of sales
talks, lengthy description Of product
or other forms Of announcement we Will
only help him hurt himself
I'VE believe that the listening public
is entitled to a maximum of entertain
nent and public service. We feel that
If too much time is taken up with
detail material the listeners are, In
effect, being cheated"

STATIC CRASH KEEPS
TRAIL OF LIGHTNING
Power Of Bolt, Lasting for Only
1nfnitesimal Part of Second,
Crushes Radio Energy.

With the lightning flash comes the
static crash. The tremendous electrical
power of a bolt Of lightning indicates
the violence of the atmospheric dis
turbance that accompanies a thunder
storm and spells clear radio reception.
A single flash during a severe storm
may release 100000 kilowatts Of
power, engineers at the Bureau Of
Standards have ascertained. While the
duration of fash is only three one
hundred-thousandths of second,
flashes coming every few seconds keep
the atmosphere in a constant turmoil.
The transmission power used by the
largest program broadcasting stations
Is only so kilowatts, a tiny fraction of
the energy released by hundreds of
lightning flashes in a violent storm.
Scientific observations made in
France over period of one year led
to the deduction that heavy crackles

On the North Atlantic coast Of the
United States an outburst OF static
was found to follow q sudden change Of
wind, particularly change from south

Observations made at Mopnt st. Au-
bert, in Belgium, showed that the abb
sence of static characterized the ap-
