Ii is far from quiet along
" the American broadcasting
Il front this Summer. So
heavy is the burden Of
duties facing the Federal Radio
Commission that 1t has been de-
cided to conduct its docket of
hearings through July and to re-
cess only during August, instead
of receSSing during both those
months as formerly. Not a few
important problems will come up
for decision during July.
Meanwhile, upon orders from
the Governments fiscal powers,
who have withdrawn its rental
budget. the Radio Commission has
completed moving its Offices from
the National Press Building to the
Department of the Interior Build
ing. Monday the commission
found itself ensconced IN new
quarters. An interesting sidelight
on the moving was the fact that
economy dictated that furniture,
files and all be moved on the
single Ford delivery truck ordi-
nariIy used by the commission for
interdepartmental delivery pur-
poses.
Several major developments
have occurred in the last 10
days that affect some of the Ma
tion's leading stations. For ex-
ample. the commission has de-
ferred until September l the eff
fective date of its order calling
off the WBAL-WJZ and VITO

neers decided have proved to be
failures.

Organized Reserves

Studies are now being made by the
War Department, as the result of q
proposal made by Gen. Douglas Mac
Arthur, Chief Of STAFF, to the Assistant
Secretary of War for Aviation, that
may change certain requirements for
Air Corps Reserve flyers. Gen. Mac
Arthur has not only proposed material
changes in the entire procedure of Re-
serve training but he has recommended
that the procedure Of securing flyers
into the Army be accomplished by in
Producing the requirement that they be
licensed flyers, pilots.
Should the Macarthur proposal be
adopted. the only training Air Corps
Reservists of the District will receive
in the future will be active military
training to make them capable of func-
tioning as military men. The new plan
has some objections. but it also has
many material advantages. It is be-
leved that this new Air Reserve train
ing plan would result in the amount
Of money being spread out more thor
oughly and that a greater number OF
Reserve flyers would receive training in
the operation Of military aircraft.

students at Howard University. will,

ages reveal two reasons why Con- nie Mack may look forward to springing surprise in next years American League campaign.
 Lou Finney, who will try to make the outfield grade with the Ath- letics hit for .351 in 1855 games with Portland, collected 268 hits and driving in 98 runs. The can didate to replace Jimmy Dykes at third base, Frank Higgins, also with Portland, batted 1926 in 189 games, but the most impressive features of the record are that he led the league in runs batted in, with 132, and was runner-up in slugging with 51 doubles, 5 triples and B home runs. Higgins also led the circuit in runs scored, 145.
 The As have done pretty well over a stretch of time in getting star talent from the Pacific Coast League Mickey Cochrane and Rube Walberg also were with Port land before they hit the big show. Ed Coleman made the long jump last season and is due to land a regular outfield job next spring, Tony Freitas, the pint-sized south paw from Sacramento was one of the pitching finds of the 1892 sea- son.

One of the most curious and misguided notions tossed in this observers direction is that Eastern sports experts conducted some sort of campaign or matched "plos' to put over" Pittsburgh as the selection for the Rose Bowl game
 Southern California had good grounds for inviting Pitt, perhaps better grounds than were general ly conceded but the fact is Colga e was the popular preference of Eastern critics for the intersec- tional classic.
 Colgate's brilliant play caught the eye of all who saw Andy Kerr's slick team perform It id everything asked of it and was tle only major team in the country not pressed to win at any stare of the season. It had never ben further west than Nebraska and it looked as though new blood would increase interest in the Pasadena pageant.
 Pittsburgh displayed legitimate and natural interest in the. se,ec- tion of the Partners. Otherwise I failed to notice much or any determined partiality in the pro ceedings or discussion leading up to the Rose Bowl arrangements. There was good case to be made on either side. Perhaps majority of coaches endorsed Pitts selec- ton, considering the Panther's equipped with more man-power than Colgate. but most Eastern writers felt the invitation should have gone to the Red Raiders.
 One thing some of the boys have overlooked, however, is that Pitts burgh's two scoreless ties, with Ohio State and Nebraska, do not detract much, if anything from the record of the Partners in one of the toughest campaigns played by any team in the country.
 Ohio State was beaten only by Michigan. Nebraska's only defeat of championship season was at the hands of Minnesota and by the narrow margin of one point.
 Pittsburgh was a marked team after toppling the Army and dou- ble-marked after upsetting Notre Dame, yet finished undefeated and scored upon only by Army and Pennsylvania.
