Ne70 Majestic Phonogrubh and Radio
Combination Selling at Rapid Clip
Outfit Wins FIigh Favor of
Fans; Is Veritable
PoWerhouSe.
BY TIMES RADIO EDITOR

The Grigsby- Grunow Company.
manufacturers of the Majestic radio
receiver, has introduced a new
monograph and radio coordination
employing a new seven-tube radio
receiver.
This combination, equipped with
Majestic electric monograph pick
up and dynamic power speaker, no
doubt will prove one of the seasons
outstanding radio sensations.
The receiver in this combination
has many refinements and improve
ments over last years model and
differs greatly from Models IL and
70, as it employs five tubes OF the
indirect heater type for detector
and radio frequency ampliflers, using
two of the new $50 tubes III push
pull for audio amplifcation, with
full wave rectif1cation.
The photograph is electric
throughout, with electric pickup and
turn table. The monograph switch
is controlled by the tuning dial, so
one may switch from photograph
to radio by simply turning the tun-
ing dial to the position marked
monograph.
Has Dynamic Power Cone
The set is equipped with the new
Majestic dynamic power cone, that
produces wonderful volume and tone
over the entire voice and musical
range. With the use of the $50
tubes in push-pull amplif1cation this
set is veritabIe powerhouse, with
all the volume that is needed.
Coast stations, such as XII, KGO,
and KNX, are tuned in with as
much volume as the locals. The set
is very selective and will give 10
kilocycle separation with equal VOL
ume on both high and low fire.
quencies. The cabinet is of matched
butt Burl walnut, with paneling of
birdseye maple and hand-rubbed
finish.
With employment of the 227 or
indirect heater type of tube, the Ma
jestic engineers have developed a
highly sensitive and selective re-
ceiver, free from all line hum and
noise that gives faithful reproduce
ton to both radio and records.
Workmanship of Best
The workmanship on both cabinet
and receiver is of the best. This
new combination fast is becoming
the most popular model in the Ma
jestic line, which consists of three
models, the II and 70 and the new
combination, all of them consoles.
Several weeks ago the writer had
the pleasure of visiting the six large
Majestic factories in Chicago with
a party of more than one hundred
Majestic dealers, at which time a
complete inspection was made of
the plants and departments of the
Grigsby- Grunow Company. We be-
lieve that this company is giving
everything that one could ask for
in quality radio receiver.
The production of Majestic radio
sets have in the last week reached
peak of more than five thousand
complete sets daily.
Majestic radio is distributed in
central Indiana by the Capitol Elec-
trio Company, 122 South Senate
avenue, and is sold by more than
thirty dealers in indianapolis.

APPROPRIATIONS
BILL is RUSHED
THROUGH HOUSE
$55, 900, 900 Budget Meas
ure Speeded to Senate
in Record Time.

Without dissent the house of rep
resentatives Wednesday afternoon
speeded through the biennial budget
appropriations bill for sos, O8O, 280 and
sent it on the senate.
Upon reconvening for the after
noon session the house resolved
itself into a committee of the whole,
read, amended and passed the ap-
preparation bill, then approved its
own report, and under suspension of
the rules, read for the second time
and then passed the bill.
The vote every step of the way
was without dissent and the ex-
pected farm bloc fight to lop off
$2,000,000 failed to materialize, al
though it was rumored today that
this fight might be waged in the
senate.
Sets Record for Speed
Amendments adding $4,000 to the
iii were introduced during the
committee session and carried with
out a dissent.
This has been a record speed for
action upon the appropriations meas
ure, said Representative j. Glenn
Harris of Gary, who was named
chairman of the house for commit
tee action on the bill, by Speaker
James Knapp.
The appropriations bill, which now
is before the senate carries an in
crease of 100000 over the 1927
1928 appropriations bill.
Within a few minutes after action
on the appropriations bill the chair
handed down the permanent regis
tration bill for third reading.
Provisions Of the bill were ex-
planned by Mrs. Zeola H. Misener of
Michigan City, its sponsor, who
declared that the first registration
would begin July l and end within
thirty days of the city election in
the fall.
Cost Protested
The bill was attacked because of
the cost it would entail, by Repre-
sentative Robert Stewart of Brazil,
who declared that it probably would
reach the 100000 mark, and that
cost at subsequent elections would
be $4,000 a year.
Representative John w. Scott of
Gary declared that cost was no
argument, eff we are to be true to
the democracy we have, it behooves
us at least in some measure to pro-
tect the ballot, which is our most
precious heritage"
The bill was passed by a vote of
81 to "a.

IRON the tenth to the fifteenth CEN
fury Roeskilde was the residence of
the Danish kings, the see OF the first
bishop Of the land, and the capital
as well as the most important city in
the country. Today, however, the
cathedral Is all that is left Of the past
glory of the little town on the island
Of Zealand, and Its pair OF steeples
forms with its red brick bulk con-
spicuous object for many miles over
the fiat area of this part OF Denmark.
The first church erected on the site was
that built by King Harald Blaatand. IL
was of wood and renamed FOR ABOUT
a hundred years, until 1t was replaced
in the eleventh century by limestone
structure erected by Bishop Svend Nord-
baage and King Knud. 1t was In this
limestone church that King Sweyn II
caused to be murdered a group OF his
guests, at mass at the time, and 1t was
here that he was refused admission on
the following day by the bishop.
Some time later King Sweyn III re-
pented and received pardon. upon which
he caused the establishment OF an en-
dowment for Roeskilde. This sum, plus
large amount granted by Canute the
Great, assisted materially in building
the present cathedral. which was erect
ed on the site of the limestone struc-
ture, construction being commenced
early In the thirteenth century. 1t was
originally a simple structure Of brick
and stone, embracing an aisle and nave,
