Five New Stations, Four for Re
lays, Opened by Government.
So that the farmers of Hungary can
secure good reception of radio programs,
the government has projected new
10000 watt broadcasting station at
Lakihegy together with four so-called
relay stations of 5000 watts power.
The large station is expected to be COM
pleted by the end of this year. One of
the smaller stations has already been
completed, but ultimately 1t is expected
that all four will be synchronized to
the wave of 210 meters each with pow
ers of 1000 watts.
High power was deemed to be the only
way to serve the rural element, most
of whom still cannot afford tube sets
and therefore depend on crystal re-
ceivers, Charles R. HerSum, American

supply available in that part of dark

effective. To indicate the correct ped

the natives are instructed to maintain
the requisite speed. They regard it as
great sport, say reports.

to welcome KDYL at Salt Lake

Data on the extent of this devel-
opment may be found in figures
made public by Ralph Wonders,
head of the Columbia Broadcast
ing Systems Artists Bureau.
According to Wonders, at least
81 acts regularly featured over the
Columbia network within the
one-year period from August,
1881, to August, 1882, made vaude-
vile appearances during that pc
riod, aggregating a minimum total
of 379 stage weeks. Of this num-
ber % acts were booked for 262
weeks by the Columbia Artists
Bureau. AS it is difficult to obtain
a definite accounting of all Co
lumbia features booked indie
pendently of the Artists Bureau,
the remaining IL acts with their
1T weeks of performance do not
represent the total bookings
through channels outside of Co.
lumbia.
