AVIATION NOTES
AIRPORT CHATTER


closed not later than September l.
:. Sturgeon Bay, Wis, is proud
of the fact that it's airport is suit
able for planes as big as the DC-3.
Mrs. Mary Longcor, age 85,
wrote cards to her friends and took
notes for her diary while she flew
from her home in South Bend, Ind,
to Cleveland, Ohio - her first trip
by plane. E. The Champion Wright
flying service, municipal airport,
Oxford, Miss, has been approved
for veterans flight training. {.
Franklin, N. c., has taken to fly
ing in big way, and even the local
dentist and the telephone man
and dozen others-have learned to
solo. At an air show at Easton,
Md, recently, Norman Harrington
began series of flight lessons early
one Saturday morning and was
ready for solo flight at three o'clock
that afternoon. 1t was stunt, of
course, to show how easy it is to
learn to fly. Hank Orth, Maryland
Airlines' pilot, was the instructor.
Plane Keeps 'em on Farm
The private airplane should help
to stop the decline of our farm pop
ulation, believes Harry Woodhead,
president of Consolidated Vultee.
He points out, for one thing, that
farm boys are going to have an ad-
vantage over most city boys in read
ier access to the use of a plane.
This fact should keep many young
fellows at home. Their sisters will
be able to get an order delivered
by air express from a catalogue
in two days as fast as most city
folks can get a delivery from a To-
cal department store. That will
help farm life, too. Equally i'm
portant, the plane will put the city
and distant friends in easy reach
of every farmers family - it will
add an entirely new social dimen-
sion to rural living.
CAA NOTES

craft purchasers and finance COM
panies thereafter, says F. M. Lam
ter. But club ownership of an
airplane introduces new headaches
for all concerned, particularly if the
plane is mortgaged. Private
enterprise will construct many new
airports before the federal funds get
into the hands of cities.

~Moscow.-Although it is not
generally recognized abroad,
Russia has he most powerful,
most farfiung radio system in
the worlf
lis thousands of broadcast;ng
stations and its millions of loud
speakers play an integral part
in the educational and cultur-
al life of the people.
The u.S.S.R.'s stations broad
cast in SIS to so different Ian
gua5es to adjust the people
within this country and in
practically all the main tongues
of the nations.
To begin with, the Russians
have radio sets, most of them
eguippe with short-waye re-
ceiving bands. Contrary to
what you may hear abroad, the
Russian people can listen 10
what they want and as long as
they want.
Although there are numerous
private receiving sets (the So
Wet Union makes a good, mex
pensive one with shortwave
bands), most of the listening in
this country is over the nation
wide network OF government
installed loudspeakers. Soviet
citizens can buy this simple,
inexpensive speaker in almost
every city.
There is no tax of any kind
on radio receiving sets or loud
speakers. as there is in England.
and no commercial advertis-
ing is broadcast on them as
in the United States.
One can get a program al
most any hour of the day, al
though the central stations shut
down between 2 and 6 p. M,
Unless there is something es-
peeially important.
To give a better idea, here is
the average days schedule:
Ire program opens with the
sound OF the Kremlin bells from
Spassky Tower in Red Square,
followed by the playing of the
Soviet National anthem. Then
a voice says, Good morning,
comrades. this is Moscow speak
ing"
The first item is always news.
This news is always read by a
man and Il woman announcer
alternating on various dispat-
ches. After the local news, the
radio gives dispatches from
abroad. This is, followed by a
prog: am summary for the day,
then usually some light music.
At Z a. m. another news
broadcast is given, generally
fuller Il an the one at 6 a, m,
and then there are setting up

M, stations carry the reading
of Prayda'S main editorial, ana
at 8.45 a. m, there is another
news program. By this time
most of those going 20 work in
factories and offices have been
reached. and the radio goes into
its program of entertainment
and instruction.
Children.s programs take up
a large portion of the morning
broadcast. These include the
presentation of patriotic plays.
which are stories about tbs war
or the Red revolution. There
are also musical programs for
children or the reading of poems
and stories by various types of
authors.
After the cnildren's hour
there are some folk songs, short
concerts or the feaSing OF some
lengthy. studious report BY an
official or q worker.
All during the day ente tain
ment is interspersed with the
latest news. The afternoon is
devoted to interviews, Light mu-
sic, reeitations and, rs rusk

are presentations in which chill

In the evening there is a con-
tinuous flow CT the news. fol-
lowed by heavier. more serious
programs. These include full
length operas or ~full-score
symphonies. etc. any of these
broadcasts are done directly
from the stages of theaters.
Public meeting broadcasts, If
important enough, are put ON at
this time. Toward late evening
stations often put on jazz bands
playing dance tunes.
Russian stations GO in for
more recordings than the big
gest stations in the United
States or the B B. c., but they
seem just as appreciat We of live
entertainment.
The internal radio shuts down
