A MOTHER network announcer
IA Is this years winner Of the :
annual golC medal award for good I.
diction on the radio, presented p,
by the American Academy of Arts
and Letters. He is David Ross,
announcer-poet, on the stan OF !!
the Columbia Broadcasting Gys.
tenn. who secured the unanimous n
decision of the six judges form
ing the committee Of noted lite :
erary men and publicists headed 2
by Prof. George Pierce Baker Of q
Yale. 80 :.
Ross selection was hailed IN
radio circles as marked tribute !
to his undisputed ability. He is
the first G. B. S. announcer to
win the award. Though 1t seems
apparent from the awards during
the four years since the prize was
created that the academy does (
not propose to go outside the-net-
work ranks to make their Selecs s
tionS, 1t has announced the ap-
pointment Of a national commit
tee of nearly 100 distinguished
university specialists in English
who have formed local groups.
throughout the country for local
conferences on the radio award.
The difficulty, it is explained,
is that network announcerS are {
within hearing range of all the Il
judges, whereas announcers of, a
individual stations are heard only
In restricted areas. 1t is pos
sible that an arrangement may
later be made whereby non-net-
work announcers will have a.
chance in the competition. The
awards previously were won by
three N. B. C. announcers, nameAIl
ly, Milton ]. Cross, Alwyn Bach
and John Holbrook.

ERITZ KREISLER, who shares
with Ignace Jan Paderewskf
and Serge Rachmaninoff the dis
tinction of being practically the
only major concert artist who has
never broadcast in this country,
may succumb to radio before the
end Of the six-month concert tour
of the United States he has Just
undertaken under the auspices of
leading radio booking agency
But he says he wants to learn the
secrets" of this young mans
field" before he goes on the air. !.
He has agreed to make a study
of microphone technique, and OBJ
fviously is open-minded toward i
broadcasting. Except when re4s :
cordings of his selections have
been broadcast, he has never BEEN
heard on the air. Paderewski has
been heard once, but that was in
England, where he had an experi4
ence with radio so unsatisfactory
to his temperament that he has
foresworn 1t since. =

GERM-EATER HALTS DEATH

PHILADELPHIA, April 29.-New
hope for sufferers from the deadly
affliction of blood poisoning start
ing from a boil or abscess was
held out by DR.. Ward j. MacNeal,
of New York, of the Cornell Uni
versity Medical School.
Announcement that he has
saved the lives of patients in an
advanced state of blood poisoning
by applying bacteriophage was
made by DR.. MacNeal in an ad-
dress to the American Association
of Pathologists and Bacteriolo-
gists, of which he is president.
Most boils are due to infection
with the staphylococcuS, a
bacterium socalled because it
appears under the microscope in
clusters like bunch of grapes.
Sometimes the infection ceases
to be local and spreads through
the bloodstream.

TUNSO.-Three colored men con-
Victed of murders today paid with
their lives in the electric chair
here but not until one had fought
his guards two hours.
Walter Holmes, 81, Chicago,
threw a pail of hot water on his
guards and brandished a lead pipe
wrenched from plumbing fixtures
when they went to his cell to lead
him to the death house.
Two Guards Scalded
Two guards were slightly
scalded and re-enforcements were
called. They threatened to flood
the cell with cold water and to
use tear gas bombs but Holmes
only retorted:
GO ahead. You're going to
kill me anyway. 1t might as
well be here"
Three tear bombs were hurled
and Holmes capitulated. After
calling for a priest he walked
Jauntily to the chair, smoked a
cigarette, flipped the butt aside,
and sat down. Current was ap-
piled three times before he was
pronounced dead.
Preceding him in the chair
were Charles Rogers. 23 Rishon
