The pOnGerous pachyderms
moved into the only edifice in
Washington big enough to ac-
commodate them last night, the
Auditorium, and glowered and
grimmaced and smirked and
sometimes wrestled. Today the
majority of them are in some
other city ready to repeat their
act, having travelled all night
probably in the same sleeping
compartment.
Gus Sonnenberg is a show by
himself, but no more so than
Pat Mccarthy, the irate son of
ST! Patrick, who can look fero-
cious for man so helpless on
the mat. Theirs was a case of
the Dutch getting his Dutch up
and vice versa. Outside of d
flying tackle, the articles re-
sorted to by most of the per-
formers were much the same as
Washington has seen at less
pretentious bouts. There was
the customary amount of hair
holds, Norman Woods nearly
losing his moustache; tickling,
biting and other playful pro-
cedure.
1t seems this is what the Gus
toners like. and, being very
obliging, the trained seals sent
them away quite satisfied. rs
as difficult to detect the genuine
article in wrestling as it is in
diamonds. We sat next to a
Washington banker who couldn't
be fooled on any bond or Sc
curity on the market, but who
was absolutely SOLD on what he
had witnessed astage.
An evil that has been going.

penalties slapped on the erring
major and minor league clubs
by Judge Kenesaw Mountain
Lands, high commissioner OF

long been aware that monkey
business in the manipulation OF

PROPS USED IN
RADIO STUDIOS
ODD AND VARIED
By DR.. RALPH L. POWER

Radio drama do,sll t seem to have
much chance of dispiacing anything
the legitimate stage or anything
else. But the broadcast -laylets
seem to go merril,v and serenely on
their way. They always will form
a pleasing part of wireless enter
tainmcnt although Iadio plays never
should be gwen in large doses in
prescriptions of broadcast enter
tainment.
Radio props have done good
deal to lend an al, of genuine in
terest to the radio playwright s
work.
For instance, when you hear a
program with the ocean as the To-
Gale, perhaps you wonder what it
is all about. a glass of water does
the trick, together with soda
straw to make some bubbles and a
few waves.
When the radio iramatists want
the effect of talking in the water,
as though swimming. the actor talks
with 4 glass of water at his lips.
This gives good realistic effect.
More Than One Way
The swishswish Of the sad sea
waves also can be realistically made
by placing some fine sand and
gravel on a drum mead. Then the
hand whirls it around slowly.
Then there is the zoom of the
airplane. Many props have been
tried for that, but apparently the
best one locally has been found
through the use of two trombones
one taking up wien the other be
gins to tire.
Still another wa" to gain the
same effect is to shoot tiny stream
of compressed air into the blades
of an electric fan while in motion
