GIANT GERMAN RADIO STATION NEARLY READY Fines Receiving Equipment in World Installed At Beelitz Berlin, Sept. 16.—(U.R)—One of the finest radio receiving stations I in the world is at present nearing completion at Beelitz. The plant will be equipped with all the most up-to-date devices, and will work in conjunction with the great transmitting station at Nauen. The main building was complet|ed in 1929. it contains a large hall, with room for 40 receiving sets and additional apparatus. The majority of the receivers are .equipped four-stage high frequency amplifiers and an intermediate frequency amplifier, which, designed as bandpass filter, shows a resonance similar to that of a receiver with ten circuits. Each receiver is fitted with 19 valves and devices for fading compensation and current limitation. An innovation lias been introduc I ed by feeding the whole receiving installation exclusively from the mains by means of rotating convertors. In the event of an interruption in the three phase current from the mains, a reserve accumulator battery is automatically switched on. There is also a 30 kw. Diesel apparatus in reserve. The huge directional aerials for reception are the most striking feature. When finished, they will consist of a number of horizontally arranged dipoles oscillating in the same phase and intensity. Many of the aerials are in place. Others will be ready shortly for the reception of the night waves from New York, Buenos Aires . Cairo. Manila. Japan and Java. Multiple aerials are used for the first time for receiving the 15.89 m. wave from New York, the 16.8 m. wave irom Java and the 25.2 m. wave from Cairo. The technical installations were for telephony and image telegra wireless telegraph service, but also extended not only with a view to phy Tile new wireless telephony lines to Buenos Aires. Rio do Janeiro, Java and Siam already have begun to function, and the image telegraphy service with Buenos Aires has been operating for sometime. tin completion of the plant. 4b aerials and as many super receivers will be available for short wave reception. Philadelphia (Jiri’s Play Poster Wins Her Prize Philadelphia. Sept. — (U.R) Miss Marion G. Spickler has been awarded first prize in a national competition among art students for a design illustrating “play” on a poster stamp. The award consists of a prize of SIOO offered by the National Asociation of Amusement Parks. Miss Spickle s work was selected from 125 designs submitted. Second prize was awarded to Miss Olga Mohr, of the Cincinnati Art Academy, who received SSO, and third prize. $25. was awarded Io Miss Dorothy Schill. | Both Miss Spiekle and Miss Schill are pupils of the Philadelphia School of Design for Women. 0 “Philly” Savings Banks Turn Depositors Away Philadelphia, — (UP) —Philadelphia's savings banks, with more money in their vaults than ever before, literally and figuratively, are turning depositors away. Five mutual savings banks, the Philadelphia, Western, Beneficial, Ge: mantown and First Penny, increased their deposits $1,881,318 during August, bringing total deposits on Sept 1 to $480,308,277. This is the highest figure ever reached by savings deposits in Philadelphia and continues an increase which has been going on steadily for more than a year. It surpasses both the August 1. 1931, figure of $478,421,959 and the $417,869,259 of Sept. 1. 1930. Savings banks are attempting to keep deposits to a minimum because of this embarrassment of riches. They are limiting the sizes of accounts accepted and refusing large amounts evidently transferred from other investment channels. o Baby Kissing Assailed Boston. — (U.R) — Baby-kissing should lie classified as a criminal offense, in the opinion of Dr. Charles F.

By HARRISON CARROLL. ’ Prrmlet SyndloHr Inc. HOLLYWOOD, Cal., Sept. 00.— Sign of a changing public taste is the Universal film, “Fudge,"

~ Zasu Pitt*.

which will feature Slim Summerville and Zasu Pitts. Neither one •f these performers is accustomed to play in sympathetic leads. Their niche in the movies has been to provi d e comedy relief in pictures starring conventional hero

and heroine types. And if It hadn’t been for Marie Dressier, Wallace Beery and Edna May Oliver, things would never have been different Film producers suddenly have : discovered that the public will support any human story—that they're even a little fed up on pretty, empty faces “Pudge" is a domestic comedy, that once saw production under the title of "That's My Daddy.” It featured Reginald Denny then, but rewriting shifted the emphasis. WHY WRITERS GO CRAZY. They tell of a newly imported I author who wrote his first script with a certain star in mind. When the producer read it, however. he suggested the substitution of a much younger leading man. "You can’t do that.” objected the author. “I'd have to change I my story and dialogue. Audiences! wouldn't believe that a young man like that would go to a desert island and stay there. What or. earth would make him want to?" After a moment’s thought, the producer suggested: “Maybe he wants to camp out.” LATEST GOSSIP After two months in Tahiti, Patsy Ruth Miller and Lila Lee are due back here on the 25th With cable charges of $1 a word, Tay Garnett says he has heard very little of the trip..

ABBE DECLARES MOON DOES NOT RULE WEATHER l amed E rench Expert Says Effect Is Negligible By Samuel Daahiell, UP Staff Correspondent Paris, Sept. 16.—(U.R) The Abbe Moreau, director of the observatory of Bourges, and famous as a prophet of good and evil days, has de elared that the influence of the moon was practicaly negligible in its effects on the weather. “1 he moon has no connection ' with changes in the atmosphere, I which cause areas of depression. ■ winds, rains and the extremes of I temperature,” the Abbe said; "all that it affects on earth is the rising and falling tides." The venerable Abbe asserted, I however, that both the ancients j and not a few modern students believe that there are indications : given by the moon which bear a close relation to weather prediction. “We only have to cite the words of General Bugeaud, the conqueror: of Isley, contained in one of his letters dated Nov. 29, 1841," the Abbe pointed out. "General Bu ■ geaud wrote. Eleven times out of twelve, the weather during any lu-l liar month can be judged by the i sth day; that is, if the 6th day resembles the sth. and it being clear, •he rest of the month will be more or less than same. If the 6th day is compared to the 4th day, the I prediction conies true nine times | Don’t Get Up Nights Make this 25c Test You need a bladder physic to i drive out impurities and excessive ' acids that cause irritation, burning and frequent desire.

The Abbe Moreau observed, however, that not only General Bugeatld wrote of this prediction, but said that it was known to the ancient, particularly to Virgil, who had mentioned it in the First Book of his Georgies.
