ceivers could be prepared. Approval
Of the radio project was received
from the Federal Communications
Commission on September IL.
In the meantime, telephone engi.
neers were despatched to Miami
with sufficient equipment to estab-
lish two radio telephone circuits. In
addition, local construction forces
at the points involved were given
plans for antenna structures and for
frame buildings to house equipment,
and operating plans were perfected
as well.
Antennas Mounted on Poles
The first contact over the radio
channel was secured after a week
of high pressure activity, and by
three days later the service was
sufficiently good to carry the pub
lies telephone messages.
The radio stations were estab-
ished at Tavernier on the north and
at Big Pine Key on the south, thus
making a radio link some 81 miles
in length. Two transmitters and
receivers Of the type usually made
for airplanes have been set up at
each station, the transmitters being
rated at 5 watts. The antennas, which
are as simple as possible, are
mounted on 60-foot wooden poles.
The stations built to house the equip
ment for receiving and sending, as
well as facilities for connecting the
radio links to the wire lines, are
small frame structures situated
about 800 feet apart.
A Well Planned Job
So it is that radio telephone cir.
cults, which leap for thousands Of
miles across both the Atlantic and
Pacific Oceans to connect the tele-
phones in this country with those
in about sixty foreign lands, are
also serving as voice bridges over a
few miles Of island-dotted water to
link the telephone lines which join
this country to Cuba through the
deep-sea cables between Key West
and Havana. So well was this piece
Of work conceived, planned, and ex-
ecuted that It win continue in its
present service until permanent
restoration measures have been
worked out.

The National League gets to-
gether today and plunges into the
matter Of the Boston Braves. The
team that has represented Boston
in the Hub since 1876, the year
in which the National League was
founded, has no more home than
a jack rabbit.
A kennel club has a lease on
Braves Field and Tom Yawkey
declares that he will not permit
the National League club to share
FenWay Park if dog racing is
permitted at Braves Field.
It is fine headache for Ford
Frick, and maybe that fluent
young radio expert will talk his
way through the mess. Right up
until the meeting opens, Frick will
keep his tongue between his teeth.
But the troubles of the Braves
go far beyond the mouthpiece of
the league.
The eight clubs represent a
value, on paper at least. of many
millions of dollars. The league
cannot function as a seven-club
organization very we'll. 1t could
do it, to be sure, but it would
never be the same. So it looks
as if the National League will dig
down into the reserve fund and
furnish the financial Sinews for
the Boston Club.

Odd Thing
It's an odd thing about these
Rough Riders. For the past two
or three years, the lads have en-
tered each race with the greatest
of promise, only to falter so per-
ceptibly in the first few games
that the task becomes more than
mountainous to catch up with the
leaders.
Today, Coach WoodWorth's men
face a team in Eastern which has
not appeared to such great ad-
vantage despite the fact two vic
tories have been won in as many
starts. On the strength of this,
the Rough Riders, if they have
found themselves at all by this
time, could defeat Eastern. since
it is a well-established thought
with scholastic fans now that
Eastern can be upset by any op-
ponent in the series.
