Barrymore in an historical drama on his Chateau program at 8:30, NBC-WEAF (WLW). /nan 11THEN American broadcasters VV —the Barrymores or Leslie Howard, for instance—fail to understand why listeners flock to the studios to see their favorites before the microphone, they should be referred to the journal of the British Broadcasting Company. Says this publication: "The ordinary listener is keenly interested in everything that happens on the other side of the microphone. He likes to know what sort of people broadcast, what they look like, how it is done. That interest is more than the mere avid curiosity of the ‘fan,’ because broadcasting transmits so much of the personality of the broadcaster without revealing those characteristics by which we are accustomed to judge people we know." a a a CELEBRATING George Washington's birthday by radio—- “ Washington, the Young Man” toill be Prof. Samuel E. Morrison’s subject for an NBC-WEAF <WIRE> talk at 6:30; Senator William. E. Borah will discuss “The Constitution and Entangling Alliances'’ on CBS at 9; addressing a Washington birthday banquet at Topeka. Postmaster GenSerai James A.

Garvin, president of Chemical Foundation of Bwneriea. and Matthew- Woll, vice rpresident of American Federation of Labor, are to speak. a a a SOME of Ripley’s letters about “Believe It Or Not" programs moke good material for more broadcasts. He recently described the hanging of a Texas man so vividly that Mrs. Paul Revier of Waco. Tex., who with bandaged throat was sitting in bed listening, thought she was being hanged when the bed slats fell with a bang at a crucial moment, and the bed fell to the floor. When she was revived an hour later, Mrs. Revier explained that she thought herself the victim being plunged through a trap door. Tomorrow night Mr. Ripley on JIBC-WJZ (WIRE) at 6:30 will 'describe a 101 ways, more or less, to get married. Taking his audience on a round-the-world tour, tie will reveal some bizarre cus■qms surrounding the business of letting married in out-of-the-way fclaces. Better be careful. Bob, anything can happen during your broadcasts. "Believe It Or Not." a a a fInCHOES from the studios—yEv Edd'* Cantor went from New’ Stork to Florida for his funfest at

Music BY JAMES THRASHER Anew pianist and anew work are to feature the New York Philharmonic-Symphony Orchestra broadcast at 2 tomorrow over CBS (WFBM), when Rudolf Serkin, Russian born and Viennese educated, plays the Mozart B Flat Concerto. He also is to play the Beethoven Cohcerto No. 4 in G Major. The Mozart work is new to the orchestra's repertoire. n u u Arturo Toscanini is to conduct the First Symphony of Beethoven to open the program, and is to conclude with Henry J.

Headed for a civil engineering career, he bolted, studied with Vizzani in Bologna, and after war service, made his debut in ‘'Tristan” at the Teatro Reale in Rome. Gatti-Casazza, then head of New York's Metropolitan, heard him later in Milan, persuaded him to come to America, and here he has remained. u tt tt Directly following the Ford program at 9, Nelson Eddy is to be guest artist with Erno Rapee and a symphony orchestra, on the General Motors broadcast on NBC’s WEAF (WIRE) network. The famous baritone's songs are to include “Dubist so jung,” by the contemporary German, Erich Wolff, an aria from Meyerbeer’s “L’Africaine” and John Alden Carpenter’s “Serenade.” u tt tt Wagner’s immortal love music from the second act of “Tristan and Isolde” is to be sung by Viola Philo and Jan Peerce on the Radio City Music Hall program at 11:30 tomorrow morning, over NBC-WJZ (WLW). The orchestra is to play Strauss’ tone poem, “Don Juan,” and “Iberia,” by Debussy.

Passenger service over the country’s air lines was available in 1926, the first year of contract air mail, when some of the contractors began to take passengers in the mail planes. In that year 5782 passengers were carried. By the end of the World War the United States had built nearly 17,000 planes, taught some 10,000 men to fly, and trained thousands of artisans and mechanics to construct aircraft and keep them in repair. An airplane entering British India must be landed for the first time in any journey at, and must finally depart from, a customs airdrome, unless the aircraft is compelled to land before arriving at or after departing from such an airdrome, by accident, stress of weather or other unavoidable cause. Pilots of modern air transports can tell whether they are banking, climbing, diving or flying normally, through use of the artificial horizon, which shows a miniature airplane against a straight line ( representing the horizon. Any plane can be stalled by climbing at an angle too great for the horse power of its motor.

Plane Talk

EARLY one morning in December, a squadron of planes took off from Hamilton Field, California, for the air maneuvers being held in Miami. A young man, setting out on his early morning chores on his father’s ranch in Arizona, hearing the zoom of the motors looked skyward, and as his glance followed the formation winging its way east, he wished he could afford a course in flying. A few hours later, as the planes soared high over one of the many college towns inthe great Southwest, a young student, crossing the campus, stopped to watch the flight and wondered if after graduation he might be able to take up flying as a career. Still later at an air corps field in one of the Southern states, as the planes circled in for a landing, a young soldier in his first enlistment watched, and as the pilots crawled out of the cockpits determined that some day he would wear the wings that meant he too could pilot an Army plane on some such missi®n. The boy in Arizona was 20 years of age and had completed his second year at the State University, but because of depression finances was unable to continue his schooling. The boy in the college town was in his senior year, and the young soldier had completed high school and was definitely interested in mechanics. m t u TO each of these boys and many more like them, energetic, ambitious young Americans, the Army Air Corps offers a splendid opportunity to learn to fly at government expense. The training covers a period of two years, one year at the Air Corps Training Center, Randolph Field, Tex., sometimes called the “West Point of the Air,” and one year training with a tactical unit of the Air Corps. At the end of the two years the student has had approximately 350 hours in the air. This training is given those can-

magic words, rub again and the prop will turn to the right. Now, isn’t that some trick? It’s a lot of fun and what’s more it’s easy to make. The materials can all be found in your basement and the tools needed are only a knift and a pair of scisosrs. The prop is cut from an ordinary tin can and the handle is made from any type of wood.

didates who qualify under the prescribed regulations for appointment as Flying Cadet: The candidate qualified and accepted for appointment is enlisted, or in the case of enlisted candidates, appointed a Flying Cadet and receives a base salary of $75 a month while undergoing training. His ration allowance is $1 per day and he is furnished uniforms and equipment without cost. Information pertaining to the training, the general requirements and the procedure to be followed in submitting application may be obtained readily at no cost. The lad in Arizona may write to the Adjutant General of the Army or the Chief of the Air Corps. Washington, D. C.; the boy in the college town may apply to his professor of military science and tactics; the enlisted man may talk it over with his commanding officer. But each one has the same opportunity of qualifying for appointment as flying cadet and being sent to Randolph Field for the course of training that has developed some of the finest airplane pilots in the world. Upon receiving the little pamphlet issued by the War Department concerning the training, the candidate will find that to be eligible for ap--20 years of age and not more than 26 at time of application. He must also be unmarried, a citizen of the United States, in good physical condition and have completed satisfactorily at least two years of college work or have sufficient education to pass a written examination in lieu thereof. Satisfactory completion means an average grade of at least “C.” All arrangements for enlistment, are made by the Recruiting Office nearest the applicant’s residence. Transportation from place of enlistment to the school is furnished the candidate by the recruiting officer. Enlistments are made for a period of three years, but any cadet found disqualified for further training is discharged and not required to serve the unexpired portion of his enlistment period.. All enlistments are accomplished in sufficient time for the candidate, to arrive at the training center on the date designated. n a \ ND on that date pouring into Randolph Field by train, by automobile, on foot, even perhaps in their own planes, as did Lindbergh over 10 years ago, come these young men to earn after one year's intensive training the wings that proclaim them airplane pilots in the Army of the United States. And after this year at the school and a second year training with a tactical unit at an air corps station, in pursuit bombardment, attack, or observation, these men who have completed the course of training are equipped to enter the aviation world as qualified military pilots. Recognized as products of one of the finest training systems in the country, some will enter the employ of various commercial transport lines; some more interested in the manufacturing and engineering phase of aviation, will obtain positions wi ;h the leading airplane manufacturing companies; some will enter into the experimental and research fields for the great amount of work which remains to be done |to make flying safer; while still others, having grown to Jove the | Army life during their two years ! of service, will plan to make Army flying their career and will quality | for appointment as a second lieutenant in the Army Air Corps and, perhaps, in a few years be back at the training center instructing the young flying cadets then entering how r to fly in the Army way.

After you have it complied, follow carefully the instructions printed on the plans, for it is the rubbing of the index finger as you push the comb bacK and forth over the notches that causes the prop to go in a specific direction. Do not rub your finger on both sides at once. Get this trick down pat—then go out and fool your friends.

TAKES INSIGNIA TO U. S. NAVY Young Flier Continues to Build Models After Enlistment. The propeller and wings insignia of the Scripps-Howard Junior Aviators has been carried into the ranks of Uncle Sam’s Navy on the blouse of Seaman Ernest R. Walborn, a very active member of the outstanding Bellevue Wing of the Toledo News-Bee Squadron. When Ernest left Bellevue for the Naval Training Station at Norfolk, Va., his model-building equipment went with him. His time is quite limited but he still manages to turn out models quite consistently. He has recently completed an original design fuselage model for use in the N. A. A. Stout endurance contests. He was assisted in its construction by three fellow seamen. Its performance is reported as being quite good, and he expects to establish a few records with it. Walborn is now building a Curtiss Goshawk. He should be able to turn out a very complete job, since he is near the testing field where all new naval planes are put through their paces before being accepted. He has seen one of the Army’s new Martin bombers and describes it as a very keen ship. It is decorated with the new Army paint job, blue fuselage instead of the usual oliva drab, and chrome-yellow wings. Walborn is a graduate of the Bellevue High School, near Toledo, O. class of 1934. He has already distinguished himself as being above the average recruit in the Navy, by receiving the highest grade among men in his unit in intelligence and ability tests. This made it possible for him to enter the Naval Service,

rLYIINg Chief of Air Service. Scripps-Howard Junior Aviator AIR traffic in this country is essentially inter-state—and not intra-state. Consequently we must have one agency responsible for the kind of air administration we get; and that agency logically is the Bureau of Air Commerce. The world has changed a good deal since the days of the Civil War when the “states’ rights” slogan brought on a war. The world is more closely knit together today and we must change our thought* to keep abreast of progress. Some time ago the Bureau of Air Commerce issued an order prohibiting private fliers from practicing blind flying or indulging in it along established federal airways. This order Just had to come. As long as we depended upon our view of the natural horizon and our sense of balance, we flew only when visibility was good. But since the development of blind flying instruments such as the artificial horizon and the directional gyro and the turn and bank indicator, we now fly in weather that formerly would have been prohibitive. The development of these instruments enabled airlines to adhere more closely to their schedules, and of course these same instruments are in the hands of pilots such as myself and other private fliers. With such equipment, both airline pilots and private operators are flying in or climbing through solid or broken clouds or fog, thus creating a danger of collision. And so we have come to the point where the flight activities of all hands mu3t be regulated in order to insure safety. Not only must airline and private pilots be considered, but there are the operations of the Army, Navy and Marine Corps to be provided for. The question immediately proposes itself as to how this complex proble mean be efficiently solved. The Bureau of Air Commerce has gone a long way toward a solution by prohibiting private fliers and the air services, from using the Federal airways for blind flying when the airlines are operating.
