' Radio TIMES TO HELP COLLEGE CITY IN RADIOMMPAIGN Interference Expert Goes to Crawfordsville to Solve Problems. Crawfordsville find.)' citizens today enlisted the aid of the radio interference man of The Indianapolis Times to eliminate objectionable features of radio reception in that city. Following the work of the radio Interference department in Indianapolis, Russell H. Thompson, secretary of the Crawfordsville Chamber of Commerce, personally asked that eteps be taken by The Times to increase the efficiency of radio sets. “There are a number of high tension lines through the north and northeast part of Crawfordsville,” says Thompson. “They have obstructed radio reception. Local radio men have determined where the trouble lies, and The Times will outline steps to stop the interference. “Many other forms of interference also are apparent in Crawfordsvijle. The expense of The Times ‘work will be borne by the local listeners, who have subscribed to a fund for that purpose,” says Thompson. More than 500 calls have- been registered in the last two weeks by the Chamber of Commerce from listeners complaining of the interference, it is said. While The Times interference man is in Crawfordsville, letters will be received or radio interference in Indianapolis. Reports on the progress of the work there will be carried in The Times, and the service to Indianapolis listeners will be resumed Wednesday.
