FIRST FOLLIES AT 81
J. c. Carr writes that he saw
the first Ziegfeld Follies from a box
seat and paid 81. 1t was at Atlantic
City before the Ziegfeld show hit
New York with Bickel and Wrothe,
Emma CaruS, La Belle Dazee
among its stars. This same first
FollieS played the National Theater
at 50 top and crossed $1,000, with
both the producer and the theater
making money on the week. To-
day the Cochran Stock Company
regards $500 as a poor week.
The average musical comedy today
must play to $4,000 on the week
to break even. Which is one Of
the reasons why there are so few
musicals en- tour.
GENE HOOVER LEAVING
Gene Hoover is leaving for
Chicago Saturday and regular
job on ESquire's staff. If you
read drama pages you should
know Gene, for as a high school
pupil at Tech he grabbed off
more first prizes in motion pic
ture newspaper contests than any
other Washingtonian. His name
was invariably on the winner
lists. because he turned in such
clever and well executed answers,
he could not be ignored by the
Judges, One Of his entries I

Telerision Stock Too Early to Buy,
Federal Commission Yarns Public

of the arrival" Of visual radio and
peddle stock with promises OF rich
returns. Moreover, the experiments
in television now receiving 'front.'
page notices have tended to whet the
public's appetite.
The gist of Mr.. Prall's statement
was that the r. C. c. still maintains
rigid experimental regulations gov
erning television. Until it sees NJ
to lift that restriction there can be no
commercial television, like broadcast
ing Of today. Thus, he argued, there
can be no legitimate exploitation OF
visual broadcasting at this time, since
there isn't anything tangible to be
sold.
THE F. c. c." said Mr.. Prall,
"does not want to excite the Ma
tion's populace into the belief that
television Is here or even that 1t
will soon be here. Many people might
then become the prey Of unscrupulous
promoters who always attempt to
ride on the crest of publicity waves
created by new inventions, develop
fnents or discoveries"
Specifically, he advised against in
vestments in unknown companies
which claim to have basic patents in
television. That was, he said, be-
cause they cannot conscientiously or
honetly promise returns on invest
ments in visual radio, because they
do not know when or how it will ar
rive. Despite laboratory progress, he
asserted that many economic hurdles
have to be overcome before there
can be practical television.

Of sales Of about 100000 automobile
radios. OF this total, however, re-
ports showed that only 32.1 per cent
were made to families not previously
owning sets, or 1,413,000 new radio
families. The other 100000 sets
were either requirements or additional
sets and did not add to the total Of
radio families.
The idea Of the interindustry sur
vey was to ascertain just how much
coverage Nationwide program gets
II everybody with set in his home
should be listening. Later the figures
will be broken down to show the
number of families in each State
having radios, as well as the number
of families In each county. Then,
it is felt, information broadly similar
to that available for newspaper and
magazine circulation would be pro-
vided for broadcasting.
The amazing thing about the new
figures Is the estimated increase COM
pared to 1880, when the Federal Gov
ernment made its actual census sur
vey. At that time there were H.
100000 radio homes. Thus, with
%, 1863, 900 homes as Of January !
of this year, the ratio Of increase
has been nearly 80 per cent.
On this basis it Is roughly esti-
mated that now a thousand homes
may be reached at cost OF about
AZ cents, as compared to SO cents
in 1880.

Pocket Radio Near.

"A LONG stride toward the predicted
day when man can carry tiny
radio apparatus on his person, possibly
Enclosed in a gadget carried like a
wrist watch, and be able to telephone
his home or Office as easily as if he
were in a telephone booth, is claimed
for an automatic radiotelephone sys-
tenn invented by an Italian, DR..
Domenico Mastini.
Utilizing ultra short radio waves,
the Mastini device is practically a
counterpart of the automatic tele-
phone, except that it is portable, uses
no wires and can be carried on an au-
tomobile, for example, with its range
limited to about 100 kilometers, ac-
cording to Department of Commerce
report from Malcolm p. Hooper, trade
commissioner at Rome. One simply
dials a fixed number and the receiv-
ing station is automatically tuned in
Since extremely short waves are used,
DR.. Mastini claims a multiplicity of
sending and receiving stations can be
called for the two-way conversations.
No description of the size and
weight of the apparatus is furnished
in the report beyond the statement
that in its present stage 1t is handy
for installation on automobiles, trains
and boats, and that it may ultimately
be adapted in pocket edition" form.
