Manufacturer Achieves Goal of His Childhood

Little boy’s ambitions are not always futile dreams If the life of Powel Crosley, Jr., Cincinnati radio manufacturer, whose chief ambition at the age of 5 was to be a millionaire, can be taken as an example. According to Lewis M. Crosley, the radio manufacturer's brother, Powel Crosley, Jr., never expressed any desire to be a street car conductor, or a cowboy, or to follow any of the other professions that children usually choose for themselves, but always wanted to be a millionaire. Today, while still less than 40 years old, he has realized this ambition several times over.

THE. INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

I’otvel Crosiey, Jr.

Crosley, who owns WLW, tne su-per-power broadcasting station at Cincinnati, will attend the Indianapolis Radio Ehrposltlon on Wednesday, Oct. 27, when he will be the principal speaker at the Dealers’ banquet In the Claypool Riley Room. At 20, young Crosley first tried his hand at making a fortune by organizing a company for the manufacture of automobiles. Tho profits did not accumulate as fast as had been expected, however. For the next several years Crosley started anew business every time an old venture failed to produce the money that he wanted. The one

ambition that he had had since childhood days—that of being a millionaire—never was forgotten. He became known as an organizer of new industrial ventures. TFe Turning Point Then came the turning point. When ho was about 30 an /opportunity was presented to him to organize and conduct a mail-order automobile accessories business. Always willing to push anew project, ho set his hand to the task, and the result was a million-dollur business in but a few months time. From this point on his story reads like fiction. Attracted to radio because he had been forced to pay a high price for a set for his son and i>ecau.se he felt that thousands of other fa* hers would welcome the opportunity to buy moderate priced sets for their sons, Crosley started making radio sets in a corner of his automobile accessories factory. The radio business grew by leaps and bounds, and soon crowded out the automotive accessory business entirely. A second factory was acquired, and then a third, and his business ventures grew to such an extent that Crosley could not only count his capital in millions hut his income as well. Interested in Sports Those who meet Powel Crosley, Jr. today can hardly believe that his whole life has been dedicated to this desire to be a millionaire. He seems more interested In hunting, fishing, golf and other outdoor sports than in business. These are only his means of recreation, however, and down Inside he is Just as intensely devoted to the business of forging ahead In the Industrial world as he was when ho started his first business venture at the age of 20. The successes that he has achieved have only spurned him on to other ventures. Evidence of the spirit of further conquest is seen in recent additions to the Crosley plants which will more than triple the present productive floor space, and in the recent announcement of the entering of tho Crosley Radio Corporation into the oil burner flffld. Several months ago Crosley bought the Amrad Radio Corporation of Medford Hills, Mass., and the Cincinnati company, together with this Massachusetts corporation and the De Forest-Crosley Corporation of Can-

THE IDEAL AERIAL The model aerial is a single wire on the roof, with a single wire used os a lead-in, running directly to the receiver. The wire should be as long as possible and kept well away from solid objects, in order to avoid a rapacity or condenser effect.
