MIDGET RADIO SETS
SWEEPING COUNTRY
Tiny Receiver for Each Member
of Family" Is Slogan Of
Manufacturer.

The little set Is the big thing in
radio today.
Midget receivers, which made their
debut only last Spring, have swept not
only this Nation, but other nations
They prevail at the radio shows now
being held generally throughout the
country coincident with the arrival of
radio season" The industry estimates
that some 600,0 900 Of the miniature sets
will be sold this year, or something like
one-fourth Of the total estimated sales.
Forty-four companies are manufac-
turing midgets, following the lead of o
Pacific Coast manufacturer, who eN-
IDENTIFY got his idea from Tom Thumb
golf courses, pint-sized automobiles and
other things miniature. At the London
Radio Show the midget sets are pre-
ponderant, just as they are at the Chi
cago Radio Show, one Of the biggest
radio exhibits In radio history, which is
holding sway this week.
Powell Cro6ley, tr., president Of the
CroSley Radio Corporation and a lead
ing figure In the industry, believes the
midget set has solved one of the big
home radio problems. "a radio receiv-
ing set for every member Of the family
Is his slogan and one that has been
adopted by the entire industry.
Manufacturers in the past have
STRESSED the value OF extension loud
speakers, connected with the set itself,
so that reception could be had all over
the house at viii, but with the midget
set so low-priced they have changed
their tune.
with midget receivers 1t is no longer
necessary to become involved in COM
plicated wiring or other troubles asso.
ctated with connecting loudspeakers,
upstairs and down, with q single re-
ceiver," CroSley stated. cts much
easier to install q midget in the living
room, another In the kitchen and q
third upstairs.
Then dad can hear the base ball
sc res, while the children tune In the
bedtime stories and the young folks
have dance music.
THE interesting thing about it all
Is that not only can four present-day
midget receivers be installed in the
space formerly occupied by single set,
but the four put together cost about
what one set Of similar efficiency cost
three or four years ago."
In the export field radio manufac-
turers have a lucrative field for midget
sets The small model meets the pock-
etbook Of European listeners.

PARK AND PLANNING
GROUP SEEKS TO ADJ
Commission Says Often 1t Is
Not Notified of Projects Un-
til Action Is Begun.

When Federal or municipal authori-
ties want to make any material changes
In the Districts development, the Ma
tional Capital Park and Planning Com
mission urged in its annual report that
1t be informed, so that its cooperation
could be offered.
The commission reported that 1.-THE
progress made in formulating methods
of cooperation has brought into the
foreground a fundamental difficulty
which frequently prevents the commits
sion from rendering the most effective
help as a co-ordinating and advisory
agency The report further states:
The commission and its staff are
often not Informed of projects proposed
by different Federal and District Gov
eminent departments until bill is be-
fore Congress. Occasionally these prof.
ects are of great Importance in the
plan Of the city or region, and the COM
mission is then in the position of inter-
fering at the last minute to try to adjust
the plan to the project or the project to
the plan. Naturally, to- the official re-
Sponslble for the project this is some
times felt to be officious interference.
The commission, therefore, urgently
invites all Government officials consid-
eri1g public works or projects in the
vicinity of Washington to give the men,
berS or the staff of the commission an
opportunity to discuss any new project
with the proposers, in order to ~assure
coordination of efforts and to avoid
later entanglementS. The commission
and its staff are always available for
such conferences and anxious to be of
assistance. The commission has found
this method of frank discussion of COM
mon problems in advance helpful, not
only in particular cases, but in generally
securing Coordination of effort"

has arranged them chronologically
after the book and ended them with
a flourish. So that one is surprised
and willing to chant with the rest
of the hundred thousand disap-
pointed "oh!" when it's all over.
Yesterday afternoon the theater
was bursting with youth, and one
may propheSy that the crowds will
barnstorm Tom Sawyer" as long as
it fingers here. This is encouraging
not only to the boXoffice, but to
those who like to see audiences well
satisfied. For the children, and
probably even more so their parents,
will not be disa 81; lted in what is
offered them. They will have all
their favorite membranes of Tom
and Huckleberry Finn and Becky
Thatcher served up with the fresh
ness and whimsicalitieS of youth. and
they will laugh and laugh and be
sorry that adventures of this nature
have to be over so soon.
Mr. Cromwell has chosen his cast
we'll. Jackie Coogan, although per-
haps a trifle beyond the years set
for Tom Sawyer's age, is neverthe-
less the most ideally equipped young
man in the cinema for such a part.
His acting is faultleSs, and almost
miraculouSly without effort. The
same may be said for Junior Durkin
as Huckleberry Finn. Mitzi Green,
with blonde curls and pouttng
mouth. saying How could you be SO
nobel" contributes the high peak
in cinematic art of the year-or
possibly any year. The others are
all splendidly attuned to their parts.
Clara Blandick as Aunt Polly, and
Lucien Littlefield as the teacher,
being especially luminous. As has
been mentioned. John Cromwell has
handled the whole with such care
and devotion to the original, and
with such a pleasing sense of the
humorous, that wherever Mark
Twain is, one hopes he will get
part reflection of his immortal
story transformed into an immortal
film.
After such a picture any stage
production of the vaudeville type
might pail. However, with the help
of trick" lighting effects, and much
after the manner of Heidt's Cali
fornians, the Hollywood Collegians"
offer fair enough entertainment.

in this are more luxurious than the

The debut of Maetro zeigfeld in

be imagined if not described. In
this case yards and yards of Indian
