A grocer from Maine will lean

and talk things over seriously with
a shoe maker from Tennessee. The
date will be May II, the place will
be Colonel Matt Winn's race course

grueling mile and a quarter in the
Derby.

is no Reign Count in there this year,
nor a Bubbling over, nor Black

WHITE SULPHUR SPRINGS, W.
Va, April 25.-Upsets which have
shaken the tennis world in spring
tournaments continued here Thurs
day when Wilmer Allison, young
Texan, defeated George Lott, Chi
cago star, and John Van Ryn, New
Jersey youngster, eliminated the
veteran Francis r. Hunter to gain
the finals Of the annual Mason and
Dixon singles championships.
Both matches went five sets. The
Hunter-Van Ryn contest was filled
with drama. The youth took the
first set in short order, 60, but lost
the second, As. He came back and
captured the third, GO. Hunter dis
played his old-tine speed and skill
to take the fourth, 60. He gave
his best in this set, however, and
was no match for the youth in the
deciding set, losing as.
Lott got away to an early start,
taking the first two sets, GA, 8-6,
and losing the third, 6-3. Allison

High Foot is a son of Prince Pal,

|JUNGALEERS' TONY
RISES TO TOP NOTCH
"Tank You Too Much" Be.
comes National CatchWord
From Gruber Programs.

f. ST. LOUIS FO.-Ttlne in to hear how
Tony Cabooch led his troup Of Jun
ladder.
It's q short story, for Tony's radio
career Is as brief as his neteoric rise 70
network recognition.
A few short weeks ago "Tank you
too much" was an unknown phrase to
raoio. That was because Chester j.
hadn't started his one-man skit on
KNOX in st. Louis. A vaudeville en-
tertainer for IL years, Qruber always
had hoped for a chance on the air.
Goes on Jungle Tour.
Finally KNOX signed him for a pro-
gram twice week. Initiating the myth
ical Tony Cabooch and his cosmopoli-
tan crew Of companions, Gruber began
taking his listeners on q tour Of the
African jungle.
The Jungaleers broadcast in st. Louis
IL weeks. Nearly 10000 letters testified
to the popularity of Tony and his
mates. That is one reason why Gruber
and his one-man troupe were signed to
perform over G. B. s.
It Is motley cast that centers
around Tony Cabooch, the kindly Ital-
ian. There Is Singh, the Chinaman;
casey, an 1rlshman; Sam Green, a cot
ton-field darkey; Abe Cohen, the Jew
iSh vagabond, and Lena, the talkative
parrot.
Keeps Listeners In Laughter.
In his chain programs Gruber In
troduced Reginald Tweed, the monocled
Englishman; Ole Olsen, q Swede; Alvin
Larsen, the hard-boiled "bo'sn's mate, y
and Haba Daba. the tribesman.
Gruber keeps his listeners In laughter
by the quaint, confused jargon that
results when he attempts to keep most
If not all of the Jungaleers babbling at
once. Tank you too much" Tony's
favorite expression, is heard at every
turn.
Not until the Jungaleers were firmly
established over KNOX did listeners
know that there were not several per-
sons In the cast. When it was an
nounced that Gruber played the whole
show single-handed, his fan mail be-
came heavier than ever.

REPLACEMENT TUBE
NEEDLE DEVELOPED
FiIament to Heat Rest of De-
vice Can Be Put in With
out Breaking Tube.

By the Associated Press.
CLEVELAND, Ohio.-A "darning nee
die that glows" has been placed in 9
radio tube by woman.
The result is tube of indefinite life
For should the needle, which really Is
the hlament or heater, burn out, it can
be replaced.
Filament renewals are made without
disturbing the vacuum of the tube.
The woman who thus has removed
from radio one Of its greatest bugaboos,
the burnt-out tube, Is Mrs. Clara E.
Quinn, mother who guided the foot
steps Of her son to healthy manhood
while aiding progress by her work in
the laboratory.
Three Years Of Experiments.
Three years Of extensive experiment.
ing was necessary before Mrs. Quinn,
who is an electrical engineer, felt that
her development was foolproof.
In the ordinary tube the filament or
heater is in the vacuum and cannot
be changed without breaking the bulb
There are two types of filaments-one
which ernits electrons directly and the
other which heats the cathode or cleo
tronic enitter Enthusiastically.
Mrs. Quinn's tube is of the heater
type, with the flament outside the
vacuum. It is a high-resistance wire,
well insulated. The filament Is fas-
tened to q removable section Of the
tubes base, held in place by q small
screw. This section also contains two
filament prongs.
Grid Is Built Into Tube.
Built permanently In the tube are
the grid, plate and cathode, which is a
small hollow tube Of special metal, open
at the bottom, into which the filament
is inserted. This hollow tube is sealed
so that no air can get into the tube
proper.
Such q filament burns in the open
air. While 1t Is In the center Of the
tube, 1t Is actually outside the vacuum.
It heats the cathode, which glows dull
red like a hot poker, by thermostatic
action. Life tests have shown the fla
ment win last from 5000 to $4,000
hours. So far three types-226, 227
and 171a-have been developed.
Mrs. Quinn has been associated with
the electric light industry since 1899,
having first started her career as q
teacher of Stenography and account
ing. All Of her spare time has been
devoted to study and research.
Late In 1922 she entered electrical
development work on her own account,
establishing laboratory and factory
IN Cleveland. from which she made nu-
merouS contributions to radio.
It was there three years ago she saw
the possibilities Of the "darning needle"
tube.

TELEvISION HELD
IN INFANCY STAGE
Engineers Believe Invention Is Not
Yet Ready for General
Transmission.

Radio lockers who expect to re-
ceive In 1880 pictures or images In the
broadcast band during the regular eve
ming program hours apparently are
doomed to disappointment.
Engineers of the Federal Radio Com.
mission believe television and picture
broadcasting have not yet reached q
stage Of public entertainment value TO
warrant their transmission on the
wavelengths now used for sound.
The commission q year ago an
nounced that radio vision would not be
permitted In the broadcast band from
200 to $50 meters except between ! am.
and am. for experimental purposes.
Commission engineers say that while
progress has been made the last year In
improving television, even the best
transmisSions are comparatively crude.
A year ago it was the consensus Of
engineering opinion that channel 100
kilocycles wide was necessary for good
teleWsion results. In the meantime
several experimenters have reported
successful transmission on 10 kilocycles.
The Radio Commission, however, Is
not convinced that television in the
broadcast band win not seriously inter-
fere with the reception Of other pro-
grams.
