formal policy of being careful about
what you say about the miXin's for YOU
know-what will sort OF be thrown TO
the winds. Inside information has it
that the well known mixer will not be

An odd bit of fate, this. Last year
three men announced the arrival of the
Graf Zeppelin at Lakehurst, N. j.
They were Floyd Gibbons, John B.
Daniel and William S. Lynch. Late
last Summer Daniels died at the age CT
80. This week Lynch, who was %, died
after an operation for appendicitis.
Floyd Gibbons is not superstitiouS, he
says. But he did ask If you supposed
those things ran in threeS, as he had
often been told. 1t is an odd COIN
cidence. Both boys were so young, and
apparently had been so well.
Here is good news for ether fans.
For the next five years, say the experts,

last two weeks storms have played
pretty roughly with whatever storms
play with in your radio. According to
Conan Doyle's friends it may be

say that 1922 was the last good year for

PROGRAM BUILDING
GROWS WITH RADIO
Special Organizations Are
Set Up for indispensable
Ally of Air Chains.

NEW YORK (P).-Radio broadcast
ing has been responsible for many an
allied art. Program building, Its life
blood, is one of these.
The making of radio programs has
grown to the point where chain broad
cast systems and individual stations
have built up special organizations for
this purpose. Besides, there have been
developed outside bureaus which make
the program complete, ready to be
taken to the studio and there trans
mitted for the listening audience.
The art, comparatively new, depends
upon the showmanship Of its various
units as a highly important qualifica-
ton, according to William B. Murray,
president of the Judson Program Bu-
reau, one of the pioneers in this field.
This bureau builds many of the chain
features heard nightly throughout the
country.
THE growth of the program organi-
cation was natural one" Mr.. Murray
said. THE nucleus was present in the
organization of artists developed by
concert management. Around them was
built the system of specialists for pro-
gram making, including conductors,
producing experts, writers, research
Librarians, arrangers and other special
lists in music and drama.
To-day each radio period, whether
it Is for is minutes or an hour, is taken
perfect to the studio, all prepared in
advance by planning and rehearsal"
In pointing out the investment re-
quired, Mr.. Murray said the musical
library needed for radio work alone rep
resented a value of more than a quar-
ter of million dollars. In addition,
there are maintained studios much like
those of a broadcast station, where
such artists as Josef Pasternak, Eugene
Ormandy, Alois Havrilla and Lois Ben
nett rehearse before they go to the Sta
ton to put their programs on the sir.
Everything is run to the second. a
stop watch being an important item In
making programs.

CHECKERS BY AIR
TRIED BY AMATEURS

SQUANTUM, Mass. (P)-Checkers by
air is another radio novelty.
Chesleigh c. Chisholm. former chief
radio operator in the United States
Navy, is one of its most enthusiastic
devotees. He owns an amateur station
and a specially lettered checker board,
which enables him to play the game
with other fans having similar outfit.
Each square on the board is lettered
SO that it may be distinguished by OPP
posing but invisible players. Two per-
sons may play at each set. One does
the moving while the other puts the
game on the ether.

BOLD SHOTS HELP
PAIR TO GAIN TIE
Capture Last Three Holes
of Match With Johnston
and British Lord.
BY o. b. KELLER.
(For the Associated Press.)

~UNNINGDALE, England, May
9.-Two American golfing
champions, a reverential gall
~ lery of $50 and this CORE
spondent were convinced yester-
day afternoon that the Prince of
Wales possesses, in addition to his
other talents, a surprising amount
of finishing power In close golf
match.
He demonstrated this by his fiawless
and bold play on the last three holes
of the new course at Sunningdale,
which enabled himself and his partner,
Bobby Jones, to square Scottish four
and Harrison r. Johnston, American
amateur champion, after the latter pair
had brought them through the fifteenth
green 3 down.
Prince Starts Rally.
In a foursome each side plays a
single ball, striking alternately. The
prince and Sir Victor were driving from
the even tees, Jones and Johnston
from the odd, and as the prince stepped
I'D to drive on the sixteenth he ap-
peared determined to start rally, his
side being in the almost hopeless Sit
uation of having to win all three re-
naming holes to get draw.
His drive was brilliant punch aimed
boldly down the right side of the fair
way in a fine position for Jones to
place a good pitch 10 feet past the
pin. Sir Philip pulled deep into the
heather and, as Johnston had to play
out sideways, the hole went easily to
the prince and Bobby.
Jones then hit a good shot to the
short seventeenth and the prince almost
sank q 10-yard putt for a deuce, the
other side missing the green and over
approaching.
Thus Johnston and Sir Victor held a
lead of / up and to play. From
the last tee,f the prince outdrove Sir
Victor and Johnston and Jones both
found bunkers with their spoon seconds
toward the distant green. Sir Victor
failed to extricate the ball from diff
cult position, but the prince blasted
out with great firmness, winning the
hole, to 8, and squaring a great
match.

Friday Is ''Passed Up"
For Launching Yacht

BRISTOL, r. T., May 8 (c.P.A).-
Those who go down to the sea In
ships are superstitious folk. and
among the traditions that have come
down through the years is one that
1t is unlucky to launch a vessel on
Friday.
In some quarters 1t is held to be
tempting fate even to begin a sea
voyage on Friday, and with four
sloops, the products Of the best
known present-day American de-
signers of racing boats, facing a
Summer of intense competition in
which one will earn the right to de-
fend the Americas cup against the
challenge of Shamrock v, the god
of chance is 70 be propitiated.
That is one reason why the sloop
Weetamoe will be launched tomor-
row instead of today.

THOMPSON STRIVES
FOR FIELDS CROWN
Champ Favored Over First
CoIored Man in 20 Years
in WeIter Title Go.
BY the Associated Press.

by the Associated Press.
~ ETROIT May 9.-Jackie Fields,
world welterweight champion,
~ risks his title against Young
Jack Thompson, sharp-shoot-
ing Negro challenger, in a l5-round
battle to a referees decision in the
Olympia arena here tonight.
It will be the first time In 90 years
that colored man will have had an
opportunity to win the 147-pound title.
Also 1t will be Fields first defense of
the crown which he won in Detroit last
July by defeating Joe Dundee on foul
in two rounds
The match will be fought at the
championship weight of lat pounds
with the prospect that both Fields and
his challenger will be under that figure
when they jump on the scales this
afternoon.
Fields Favorite.
Fields, twice victorious over Thomp-
son in 10-round engagements, remains
a top-heavy favorite to either win by
knockout or get the verdict.
They were betting as much as to l
on Fields despite Tnompson's impress
sive showing in his battle with Jimmy
McLarnin. If Thompson has the same
stuff he flashed against McLarnin,
there may be an upset tonight.
Fields is confident of victory and is
determined to win by knockout If
possible.

Schneling Demonstrates
He Recuperates Quickly
BY BENNY LEONARD.

SCHMELING'S CAMP, ENDI-
COTT, N. Y, May o (N.A.N.A).-
Max Schmeling recuperates rapidly.
NY first glimpse of him upon my
arrival here last night showed me q
tired, worn-looking young man, who,
in spite Of his apparent WEAKNESS,
was able to produce O smile of well
come that somehow I felt was tr,le
and sincere. It didn't smack of the
canned variety that some of our
modern gladiators of the ring keep
on tap. But that was last night,
after 10 o'clock.
This morning when I met Max to
keep a golf date with him was
astonished at the change that had
come over the man. Whereas he
resembled glass of fat water last
night, this morning he looked like
sparkling cider.
