HANDWAVINGS
BANISHED BY
STUDIOS

An old order of broadcasting is
passing, giving way to mechanical
device encrocahment. Soon the
long-established and very human
custom of waving the hands in
various gestures to convey silent
messages in the studios will have
died after a life of great service.
The noiSeleSS system Of me-
chanical communication, installed
in several National Broadcasting
Company studios last fall as an
experiment, has proved so practi-
cal that it soon will be extended
to all studios, according to plans
just announced. The system is
built around special noiseless tel
autograph machines perfected by
National Broadcasting Company
engineers in cooperation with the
Telautograph Corporation.
This brings to an end a color.

tom that became an institution in
radio. No longer will it be neces.
sary for production men to run
i~tC a studio, whisper to the
orchestra leader, push a soprano
closer to the miscrophone or wave
his hands this way and that in
efforts to convey messages.
Orders Are Written
Under the new system a man in
the control room writes orders on
the telautograph machine at his
elbow. These are recorded on an
other machine in the studio. Ir

Next time you look at your
radio set, you may thrill to the
fact that for radio cabinets alone,
veritable forests are needed in
year. Also for the nearly 4,000,-
600 sets made in America in q
year, there are needed 159, 900
tons of metal and paper. The
manufacturers used 100000, 900
pounds of steel, $4,000. 900 pounds
Of copper wire. $500, 900 pounds
of tinfoil, and nearly 100000
pounds of paper. Leather, graph,
tie, hemp, lava, resin, cord, blue,
and wax help make up the en-
semble. No tobacco, milk or gin
is used.

Colurnbia's Bit
For Education

A survey Of an average weeks
programs of the Columbia Broad
casting System revealed today
that 1913 per cent of its broad
casting time is devoted to edu-
cational programs. This figure
compares with the nationwide
average of close to 10 per cent
shown by a questionnaire sent
out recently by the Federal
Radio Commission.
Columbia's percentage did not
take into consideration portions
of musical programs which are
distinctly educational, such as
the explanatory interludes in the
New York Philharmonic Sym
phony concerts Sunday after
Moons. Nor were such concerts
themselves, despite their ad-
mitted cultural value. included.
With these items added the edu,
cational time allotment would
be materially higher.
In making its survey the Fed.
eral Radio Commission consid.
cred programs under three clasSi.
fications. Those from studios
given by educators totaled LOOT
hours a week for the country
and 1877 hours for the first zone,
which includes New York city
Those originating in education
institutions totaled 431 hours for

series victories this year, were
Martin not such a madcap,
might otherwise be the hero to
date. Hallahan's complete world
series record, particularly dur
ing the last two series, is bril-
liant, to say the least.
In the last two world series,
Hallahan, winning three games
and losing one against the AS,
has yielded only 3 runs in 20
innings. This is somewhat
under one run per game and
certainly should place Sweet
William" in the sun among the
great pitchers of the world
series.
The Athletics have been able
to get only 81 hits against the
Card lefthander. Hallahan
worked two innings of the 1926
series and permitted one run
and two hits. Thus, his COM
plete record for world series
competition is 4 runs and %
hits in 81 rounds
Meanwhile Pepper Martin is
cunning for another 4ecord to
add to his 12-hit total for a
series which seems inevitable

SARAZEN TAKES
FIRST MONEY

SALISBURY PLAINS, L. l., Oct
9.-Despite his defeats in the ma

championships within Z the last
few weeks at the hands OF. Tommy
Creavy and Paul Runyan, Gene
Sarazen still is power in the
realm of golf. The Lakeville ex-
pert may be having had luck in
his match play ventures, bat when
it comes to medal play he remains
the player the field has to beat.
Demonstrating all this as he
scampered around the testing No.
4 course of the Salisbury Country
Club yesterday afternoon in a
drenching rain for a card of 70,
Sarazen added the final conclusive
touches to a sterling performance.
He played the entire IS holes
Of the annual Joseph ]. Lannin
Memorial tournament at the
same pace, winning the first
prize Of $4,000 for the second
consecutive year and beating by
two strokes Lighthouse Harry
Cooper, of Chicago, with whom
he had been tied at the end Of
the third round.
Sarazen had 284 and Cooper
286. Macdonald Smith was third
with 200 and Willie Klein, Of
Wheatley Hills, was fourth with
294. Next in order we're Cyril
Walker, 295; Bobby Cruickshank,
296; Clarence Clark, 297; Herman
Barron and Johnny Farrell, 298;
Walter Kozak. 299; Sol Dibuono,
300: Witty Cox, 3O1; Willie Mac
farlane and Tom Creavy, 302.
Sarazen's winning score was
three strokes better than the card
with which he captured the tro-
ply last year. Even Cooper was
one stroke under the old figure.

was on his back, he hitch-hiked
and rode brakebeamS until he
was in the Cards spring train
ing camp, where the boys got
hold of him, threw him into a
bath tub, gave him a good scrub
bling, q big meal and odds and
ends of clean linen gathered up
among the players.
From the start, he was the joy
of the camp because of his unaS-
Suming ways, something you don't
always find in a rookie, and be.
cause he was the first on the field
in the morning and the last to
leave. His soft Southern drawl
was the delight of everybody from
Branch Hickey right up to Sam
Breadon and including Rogers
HornSby.
Stole Home To Win Flag
In 1928, it was Pepper Martins
steal of home that won the game
which cinched the National League
championship for the Cards. It
was in the ninth and Pepper was
put on first as a pinch runner. He
was advanced to third and ultl-
mately stole home with the run
that meant the Cards would play
the Yanks that fall in the world
series.
So you see Martin has stolen
his way throughout baseball. He
stole rides to the Florida training
grounds, he stole home in an I'M
portant game in 1928, and he's
been generally stealing this world
series right out from under the
very noses of the Athletics. Mar
tin has had but six birthdays in
his q years, being a leap year kid,
and born on February %, 1904.
Wanted To Be Hero
Martin said today:
Gosh, but I'm happy. But
can't believe it's real. 1t don't
seem possible that one man
could do what I've done in this
series and don't get me wrong.
1 don't mean to brag. But in sny
widest dreams, and Eve had
some pretty good ones, 1 could
not have planned the things
that have come my way. I'd
have been ashamed to suggest
even to myself that I'd bat .667
