HAMMERS ECHO DOWN FEDERAL BUILDING HALLS Improvements Will Afford Larger Working Space; Cost in Thousands. Involving expenditures of several thousands of dollars, extensive improvements are under way on the federal building here, while other projects will be started soon. Workmen today continued laying new floors in offices of the internal revenue department and registry section of the postal department. Bids will be received in Washington, D. C., Friday for painting of the postoffice workroom and registry section, and for pointing stone on the exterior of the structure. New plans are being made by government architects for enlargement of the space now occupied by the finance section of the postal department. Sub-C'orrirtor to Be Removed The sub-corridor on the south side of the first floor of the postoffice is to be taken out, and the counters of the various tellers are to be moved forward to front on the main corridor. Between 1,500 and 2,000 square feet of space will be added to the finance section by the improvement, according to George M. Foland, collector of customs here, and custodian of the building. Not only is the sub-corridor unnecessary, but often is a nuisance, postal authorities agree. Strangers have experienced difficulty in locating stamp and money order windows, hidden by the sub-corridor from the principal entrances to the building.

Floors to Be Recovered Additional improvements will include new floor coverings in the offices of the internal revenue department and the prohibition offices on the third floor. Cost of the corridor improvement on the first floor probably will be about $4,000, Foland said. Bids were received on one set of plans for this change, but when the plans were changed they were rejected. Foland said there was no estimate on the cost of the other proposed work, and based his figure on the corridor change on the basis of bids received on the original plans. NONFLYING AVIATION OPENINGS STRESSED Tech Students Hear Vocational Talk by Taylor. That opportunities arc better in the nonflying side of aviation than on the flying side was stressed by Robert Taylor, mathematics instructor at Technical high school and a lieutenant in the national guard, at the aviation vocational conference of pupils. “There is not very much of a field for women as pilots,” he said, “but such positions as chemists, saleswomen and managers offer endless opportunities.” This was the third of a series of vocational guidance conferences offered to seniors at Technical. Besides Taylor, who has had more than 2,500 hours of flying, William Evans, director of publicity for the public schools, and Frederick Polley of the art department have the speakers to date.

KATE SMITH IS VOTERS' CHOICE AMONG SINGERS Leads All Other Crooners by Wide Margin in Times’ Poll. BY JOHN T. HAWKINS Times Radio Editor It takes a woman to show ’em. Anyway, that’s how the Indianapolis Radio Poll is shaping up. A complete tabulation of the first three days’ voting shows that Kate Smith is so far out in front of other crooners of popular songs that it isn’t even funny. Kate has more than double the number of votes cast for the next most popular crooner. The runnerup is Bing Crosby. Then come Morton Downey, Little Jack Little, Rudy Vallee, Marion Harris, Eddie Cantor, and Seegar Ellis, in that order. So far, as the most popular type of program, dance music seems to hold sway. Seventy-five per cent of the votes already cast have been for that type of performance with Ben Bernie’s musicians leading in the balloting. Then, in the order named, comes Ted Weems, Guy Lombardo, Paul Whiteman, Wayne King, Henry Thies, and Coon-Sanders. Time is growing short in The Times’ poll and you would better cast your vote right now if you want it to get in on time. The poll is being conducted in an effort to determine the radio trend of Indianapolis and vicinity and all radio listeners in this area are urged to vote. The results of the balloting will be given not only to the two Indianapolis radio stations, WKBF and WFBM, but to large stations in the midwest. The balloting ends next Monday at midnight and the results of the poll will be announced in Wednesday’s editions of The Times. Meanwhile, The Times will keep you posted on the standings of the favorites in the contest. An English automobile manufacturer has placed on the market a four-door sedan body that contains no center post. Doors open from the center.
