WEATHER NOT HIT BY RADIO, SAVEXPERTS City’s Authorities Agree on ImpossibiPy of Air Program Effect. BY ARCH STEINEL. Old Man Weather may have his moments and those moments may be blizzards, typhoon*, or an Indiana tornado, but he can’t lay the biame for those palpitating moments on the great American siren, Madame Radio. Physicists of Indianapolis agree that although Madame Radio gets static at the peal of thunder announcing the approach of the Old Man, there’s no reciprocity of emotions. Not Affected, Says Elliott “The weather is not affected by radio.” declares Professor S. E. Elliott, head of the Butler university physics department. “Weather is affected by the air, but radio waves are not carried by air,” Elliott asserted. J. H. Armington, United States weather bureau observer, pronounces the steel of the weather’s heart with, “Why, radio wouldn’t affect the weather any more than a night baseball game. In my years of service, I see no change in weather conditions that might be attributed to the broadcasting of market quotations, jazz music or advertising.” New One on Him “It’s anew one on me that weather might be affected by broadcasting stations,” says Fred Finehout, consulting engineer and expert in radio research. “It is possible lightning might be affected by radio stations. Radio stations properly grounded would serve as a protection against lightning under certain conditions. In turn, if the station was not properly grounded, it might do the opposite,” Finehout said. And. summed up, his opinion and that of the other physicists mean that city “Amos ’n’ Andy” fans may lose out on the doings of the Mystic Knights of the Sea because of a thunderclap, but the weather will always be listening in and doing about as it dern pleases while it listens.

Didn't Click Cm 7 imr* Sprcial EVANSVILLE, Ind.. June 11. —The old alibi of being “too sick to appear in court” didn't save Miss Viola Eliter. On Judge Bock's order, she now is in jail instead of in a hospital. She was brought to court on a stretcher to face a liquor charge. Bock said she did not appear to be ill and she had been at a ball game the previous day. Officers told Bock she had defied them when they went to her home to arrest her and had thrown herself on a bed and refused to move. They called the city ambulance and had her removed. j

GRACE CAN MAKE GOOD, SAYS CHIC Now they are talkin’ about makin’ a woman secretary of labor. Her name is Miss Grace Abbott. Well, sir, it might work out all right, and I’U tell you why. Ever since Eve ate the apple, every woman in this world has been sort of a secretary of labor. You take a man puttin’ up a screen door. He wouldn't be doin’ it if his wife hadn’t nagged him. And he couldn’t talk freely while at work if his wife hadn’t sent the children away. Now she's standin’ there saying': "Well, if you held the hammer in both hands you wouldn’t hit your thumb with it. The door hangs straight all right, but you’ll have to take it off. You got it on upside down again.” That's the woman’s influence on labor in all branches, and it’s a good one. Most of our successful men today owe everything to havin’ a wife who knows how to make them k?ep on workin'. <2£*^Q£.“vSa4. I Copyright John F. Dllle Cos.)

AIR PILOTS BECOME HEROES IN FICTION _ Story Writers Today Seem to Be Making Matinee Idols Out of Aviators tor Best Selling Reasons. BY WALTER D. HICKMAN IT seems that the style of our heroes in fiction is changing these days. All of us can recall the days when the iron man of finance was the leading man 'n many a novel. * Then we started to swing our interest to the he-men of the west and we had a great assortment of cowboys as our heroes of fiction. But now since Lindbergh landed safely in Paris as well as thousands of men and women becoming air minded, we now have the aviator as our latest hero. The latest hero of the flying type is Douglas Harris, also Lord Doring, to be found in “The Hawk,” by Roy Vickers, and published by Lincoln

lO DC IUUIia ill JL lit? nttWR, uy Macßeagh, The Dial Press, New York. This story has to do with this Doug person w’ho really is kidnaped from prison by the chief of a dope running gang. The chief of the gang was hard up for crack aviators and Harris got in bad by getting mixed up with a bad who framed him for a murder that he did not do. But Doug landed in prison and escaped only when the gang staged one of the most complete jail deliveries ever pulled off in any novel. Doug was grateful for his freedom but there was so much mystery around it all that he did smell something in the air. We are then introduced to about as much mystery as any one can stand in one story. A big aviation depot suddenly appears out of the ground; then a mysterious flight to a strange island w r hich is the distribution point of the dope, and, then we get acquainted with a mysterious ocean liner that specializes in the wealthy drug victims of the gang. Os course this is made all the more interesting because Doug and his best girl become mixed up in the dark plots of the gang. Here is one novel that permits our hero to go through enough danger. He even has an airplane shot down right under him. TVe truth is our hero should have had white hair at the end of the story. Tell you the ending? Think I would ruin your fun? No. “The Hawk” is good reading theater. Nothing heavy. Just a good yarn and that should be enough when one is in that mood. an n Indianapolis theaters today offer.
