BOARD TO FIGHT FOR PUPIL TRANSFER RIGHT Insist on Authority to Allot School , Quotas. Decision to fight in court, if necessary, for the right to decide which schools pupils must attend has been reached by the school board. Dissension over which school Negro pupils in vicinity of the abandoned protable School 65, Sixteenth and De Quincy Sts., who last year went on strike rather than be transferred, should attend brought on the board decision. Last winter the “strike” was broken when school officials forced parents in School 65 district to send their children to School 37, the board providing busses for transportation. The same plan will be followed this year the board decided. Suit to enter some of the children in School 62, a white school, has been threatened.

KNX of Hollywood, claims it has been on the air with regular scheduled programs more hours a day than any other station in America. It comes on the air at 6:45 every morning and continues through until 1 the following morning. An additional program, from 1 to 2 a. m. is being contemplated. It tt it ana Question —Will you be kind enough to advise relative to the definition of the name “All-Electric?” Does this mean that on the purchase of a radio bearing this trade name the set can be used on alternating and direct curie*™ as the case may be, or is there a distinction between the two? <2 l Are there radio sets on the market which can be used on the house current lines irrespective of what current may be supplied; in other words, to be more clear, a combination set usable on either?—F. I. W. Answer—The term all-electric means nothing more than a set whicii takes its entire power from a house-lighting circuit. Sets so designated are further subdivided into direct current and alternating current receivers. One must know whether the house electicity is D. C. or A. C. before buying the set. (2) No; the A. C. set can be adapted to D. C. lines only with the addition of a somewhat costly motor-generator set of 75 to 100 watts power. Likewise, the D. C. set can be adapted to A. C. lines through the employment of rectifiers and filters, often called power packs.

In the new A. C. and D. C. receivers introduced by Stewart-Warner the “retune menace” has been eliminated. Three stages of radio frequency amplification have been used, but in this case all three stages are tuned. This additional tuned circuit is said to afford freedom from “harmonics,” added selectivity and a greater volume. The new Stewart-Warner radios can be set up and demonstrated at the prospective buyer’s home in fifteen minutes, according to L. E. Parker, chief engineer. This quick hook-up is achieved by a light socket aerial installed in the cabinet. For reception of local broadcasts neither outdoor nor indoor antenna is necessary. The dealer merely carries the set into the home, makes a ground connection on the nearest radiator, plugs in the light ccrd.and proceeds with the demonstration. nan a a a The radio industrial banquet Sept. 18 will have an entertainment program worthy of comment. In a two-hour program over a giant net, Mme. Ernestine Schumann Heink, Paul Whiteman, Fannie Brice and several others of note in the stage and concert world are scheduled to appear. St tt n a a a After seven years on the air, Vincent Lopez, one of radio's pioneer performers, will be heard in his own productions.

Composers whose names are associated with Broadway productions and authors are said to be collaborating upon the first group of Lopez radi feature productions, to be heard this fall. It was announced at the Lopez offices that “spot” features are to be on the late evening programs broadcast over WOR. These will include many radio personalities.

Radio RADIO DEALERS URGED TO LOOK PASTJORIZON 300 Are in Attendance at Annual Banquet, Peak of Fair Show. Urging radio men to look beyond their own industry and realize that general prosperity is essential to Individual profit, Congressman Fred S. Purnell, Ninth Indiana district, spoke at the third annual banquet of the Radio Trades Association in the Riley room of the Claypool Hotel, Wednesday night. Approximately 300 radio dealers, distributors, and association officers from all over the State attended. The entire program, including speeches and stage presentations, was broadcast through WFBM. Purnell lauded the Washington representatives dealing with radio legislation and stressed the necessity of intelligent knowledge of facts, “so that when you ask your representatives on the radio commission for something, you’ll know what you want.” Urged to Keep Cool “You are representative of a great industry, and there will be need for much radio legislation. Don’t lose your heads and don’t ask anything unreasonable.” counseled the speaker, adding that the Federal radio commission will try to do the most good for the most people in the course of its extensive program. The address of the absent Orestes H. Caldwell, member of the Federal radio body, was read by Frank Argast. secretary of the Indiana association. Caldwell’s remarks consisted of an explanation of the congressional radio act which distributes broadcasting privileges, allowing only 165 stations of 565 watts or more to operate simultaneously. “Farmers and distant listeners will be the main beneficiaries under this new program,” said Caldwell. "The plan also favors small 'stations by permitting them to. be heard to the limit of their radius. The big stations, however, are and will continue to be the backbone of radio.” Officers Are Introduced The radio trades banquet marked the peak of the State fair radio show. In the course of the ceremonies. J. F. Connell, toastmaster, presented the following officers of the Indianapolis Radio Trades Association: Adolph Waggoner, president; I. Williams, vice president, and Chairman Matthews in charge of the show committee. Telegrams from absent members read by the toastmaster, included a message from Jesse Hawley, coach at Dartmouth college and member of the radio trades organization. The attractive entertainment presented in connection with the banquet was arranged by Earl Mounce, studio director of WFBM.
