NiUUvtr bHu JUST uicV HIS c"Cst sUu
and there was a great squaktng as
the Nibbler families talked 1t over.
That very same night another mouse
was caught. As before, no one
seemed to know just how it was
done, or who it was that did 1t. But
ii was clear that there was an enemy
in the barn and all the Nibblers be-
came very much excited and nerv-
GUS and frightened.
The next day three mice were mys-
teriously caught. This was getting
serious. Nibbler called together all
the other grown members of his
family and they talked it all over.
But as yet no one had discovered
the strange enemy. Some thought
it might be Shadow the Weasel.
Some thought 1t might he Silly
Mink. Mons guessed who it really
was.

SCHILLER HEIR
WAS SUICIDE

PITTSBURGH, Aug. - U.N.s.).
Police today abandoned the murder
theory In the death of Frederic
c. Schiller, ~, when his brother,
William B. Schiller, jr., admitted
that the young heir to, the steel
millions had telephoned intention
to take his own life. Young
Schiller shot and killed himself
Tuesday night.
Members of the family had init
mated that Schiller might have
been murdered since he had not
been morose, although he had been
in i'll health for some time. After
questioning the. family, however,
police said William had admitted
that his brother te1ephoned him
just prior to the shooting.
Three months ago Schiller
eloped with Pauline Lynch, q nurse
in a Beacon. n. Y, hospital where
he had gone for treatment the
couple was married in New York
on May 1s, last, and returned to
Pittsburgh a few days later.

DEAD PLANE

LAKEHURsT. NJ j., Aug. ~
u.N.S).-Continuing the expert
ments successfully accomplished
Tuesday night in hooking an airship
to the United States naval dirigible
Los Angeles. three new hook.ups
were made today as the Los An
geles scared over New Jersey, Man.
haitian, Brooklyn and Long Island.
In one Of the three an even more
difficult feat than the hooking; on
OF the seaplane was accomplished:
Naval authorities said seaplane's
engine was shut off in one Of the
hook-onS, and the Los Angeles suc-
cessfuly towed the dead plane, as It
had in the other tests towed the
plane with the motor running.
After the engine had been shut
off for several minutes 1t was
started again, the hook.up released
and the seaplane scared away.

ENGINEERS PREDICT
RELAY AIR PERIODS
Rebroadcasts of Foreign
Programs to Bring Reas-
signment of Channels.

Division of time on the air among
relay broadcasting stations which are
planning the interchange of programs
with foreign broadcasters is foreseen by
engineers Of the Federal Radio Commits
sion.
The growing demand for the limited
number of wave lengths available for
rebroadcasting will neceSsitate a shar-
ing of channels by various stations
similar to that now required on several
frequencies in the regular broadcast
band, the engineers say. The division
Of time could be made either on basis
Of SO many days week or so many
hours a day to each station.
Would Afford Variety.
This arrangement, the engineers point
out, would afford variety OF foreign
programs for listeners throughout the
world. In this country. for example, the
fan would be able to hear an orchestra
in Berlin on Monday, speech in Lon
don on Tuesday, melodies from Madrid
or Buenos Aires on Wednesday. and the
description of an international tennis
match in France on Thursday.
Under regulations Of the Interna-
tional Radio Telegraph Convention, 50
channels are assigned for relay broad
casting About 20 of these channels
have been assigned by the Radio Com
mission to American companies. Among
these are the Radio Corporation OF
America and WGY, Schenectady, and
KDKA, Pittsburgh, which have been
rebroadcasting programs to all parts OF
the world for some time.
Reach Colonies.
Relay channels also are used by Brit
ish stations for transmitting programs
to Australia, Canada, Africa and other
parts of the empire, and by Dutch sta
tions for rebroadcasting to the Dutch
East Indies.
Applicants say each station must
have several frequencies in order to in
sure the programs being heard under all
kinds Of conditions.

GUSHING IS BARRED
At STATION KWKH
"MiStah Will" Henderson
Uses Only Pointed and
Hot Talk.

SHREVEPORT, La, LP-Silver-
tongued radio announcers who gush and
flatter have no place in the studio OF
KWKH.
'Mistah Will" Henderson, millionaire
iron manufacturer, who owns and oper-
ates KWKH, acts as his own station
director When he goes on the air his
patter includes no reference to Dear
unseen listeners" Nor does he THANK
you, one and I'll"
KWKH opens up with Hello. OIL
world. Don go way" And KWKH
signs off with "G'night, OIL world, daw-
gone yuh." In between is lot of fiery
talk-attacks on competing stations, as
saults on the Federal Radio Commits
sion, criticism of men in public office.
Hot and Pointed.
"Mistah Will" says the fans like their
talk hot and to the point. When he
draws Shreveport on the air, Shreve-
pot everywhere" listeners pick up their
ears. Sometimes he berateS his fans,
holding forth against sGnders OF critical
kilograms. The listeners like 1t. Many
of the sassy" messages sent to KWkH
are prompted by a desire to draw the
fire of Henderson.
Radio is a hobby with this worthy.
He launched his station in 1928, low
power affair. which since has grown to
a 10.00O-Watt plant 1t has six studios,
four in Shreveport and two at Kennon-
wood, his beautiful country place, 10
miles from the town.
Henderson's ruling thought is to give
the people what they want. His library
of photograph records includes practi-
cally every composition put on wax, and
an army of employees can respond to
request number on moments notice.
Conducted Campaign.
Some of the KWKH fans still chide
Henderson for his heated campaign on
behalf of the Democratic candidate in
the last presidential election. He shot
considerable cauStic comment on the
air, but when he began referring to
Sir 'Erbert of Iowa." messages would
pour in, telling him to Get away from
the mike
On these occasions "Mistah Will"
would vacate, his place being taken by
Mrs. Henderson, who supported Mr..
Hoover as stanchly as her husband
fought him.
The campaign cost him few friends
apparently, for when the Radio Com
mission presented the question of
KWKH retaining its wave length, 100,-
600 protests, sworn to before notary
publics, were forwarded from Shreve-
port for presentation to the commission.
KWKH keeps things lively. Old-time
orchestraS, singing meets, barn dances
and good music are on the program,
SELF who seems able to stay up all
night if the fans insist, as they often
do. And next morning he drifts in to
work at Z O'Clock.
Its pretty good Of world" he says.
"Dawgone yuh!"

new ALLEGATION PLAN
AFFECTS MANY SHIPS
Distribution of Channels in Con-
formity With International
Radio Telegraph Convention.

More than 1000 ships, including
ocean-going and Great Lakes vessels
and scores of coastal stations, are af-
fected by the new plan of ALLEGATION of
maritime wave lengths adopted by the
Federal Radio Commission.
The distribution of channels is made
in conformity with the International
Radio Telegraph Convention, and per-
tains to mobile service, such as ship
to-shore and shore-to-ship communica-
tions.. Point-to-poirlt radio stations are
not affected.
To carry out the plan it will be neces-
sary to modify existing ship and coastal
station licenses which do not agree with
the new ALLEGATIONS, and all new licenses
must conform to the set-up.
The following frequencies are assigned
for calling: -Four hundred and ten kilo-
cycles for use on the Great Lakes only,
500 kilocycles for use except on the
Great Lakes, and 143, 5,525, 1850
l6,575 and 22,100 kilocycles for general
use. The ALLEGATION does not include
maritime channels between 1900 and
$3.50 kilocycles, as these are reserved
for comparatively short-distance work
and will be allocated to local communi-
Gallon services.
Mobile press frequencies to be used
for communication east of the Missis-
