THE RICHMOND PALLADIUM AND SUN-TELEGRAM, RICHMOND, 1ND., TUESDAY, MAY 16, 1922.
Palladium Government Call la 9 ZAE Fred Clark, Operator
Palladium "call is WOZ. , The .long desired elimination or static is announced at last by army experimenters stationed in Chicago, and their statements have aroused a widespread interest. Major J. O. Mauborne, a signal officer, and Dr. Louis Cohen, a consulting engineer, after two years experimentation, state that it is possible to "drain" the static noises through a special coil of wire without affecting the strength of the radio signals. The static noises are drained off and grounded, leaving the radio signals clear and distinct. The draining coil contains wire of a certain length in relation to the wave length it is desired to receive.
All amateurs and novices will watch for further information of this dis
covery with great Interest. Eaton Amateur
Cyrena Van Gordon, noted grand opera singer and formerly of Camden,
Ohio, was heard in Eaton recently,
Walter Fishback and a guest, while tuning in on an eastern station, were agreeably surprised to hear the voice
of the Preble county singer. J A larger tower is being erected for their aerial by Marshall and Henry Bucher, managers of the Eaton laundry. Their station is equipped with a three-stage simple circuit set. County Surveyor Burns is the latest, recruit to the ranks of the radiJ fans, having acquired a variometer set recently. Fred Miles and Roy Poe are two others who are getting good results from their sets. ' - Other Preble Amateurs With seven amateurs twirling dials in Lewisburg, the town i3 well on the road to get its share of radio broadcasts. Owen Douglass, the pioneer in radio for that locality, is assisting the newer ones in many ways. Alden Swift of West Alexandria is making a new simple circuit outfit. Copp and Rinck of the same town report very good reception for broad
casts, especially for Rike Kumler at Dayton. '
Dr. Lawrence Fisher of Camden, as
dentist, has been added to that towns radio roll call, with a variometer set. Lightning Reception. The set belonging to Russell Kincaid west of Centerville, was damaged by fire, the tuner being completely destroyed, last week, being unequal to the task of receiving lightning. The fire was caused by lightning which struck the interurban power lines and followed a power wire into the wireless shack. Just outside the shack the lightning jumped to the lead-in which was near the power electric wire, and followed through to the set. Kincaid had placed the bulbs in a cupboard on .the other side of the room when he finished listening and managed to get out, when the fire started, in time to prevent destruction of more than the tuner. His one horse power motor was burned out also. Kincaid is now building a new set similar to that described in th call book, but planning to put his tickler coil against the ! variometer and connect the two, without using a separate tickler motor. 1 New Sets.

type aerial 60 feet high. His set is
a two-stage, sirle circuit. ' Circus By Radio. Putting the elephants through their tricks by wireless orders is the latest use of radio. This was done at the New York Hippodrome. The elephants were fitted up with receivers the size of soup-plates, connected by a long
wire, witn the receiving set. Trans-Atlantic The University of Vermont has been heard recently, in Paris. Word has just been received from that city that a university broadcast was picked up by a Paris station. ' Bureau of Standards. Experiments are being conducted by the Bureau of Standards in the use of condenser plates as aerials instead of wires.: The large plates used are found to be freer of static and of course are better suited to portable sets. A method of broadcastine direction
finding signals so as to enable airplanes to land by them, has been per-
lected by the bureau. The signals can be heard at a distance, but within a certain radius of the field, are lo
calized so that the plane can find the
exact location of the landing ground. Palladium Wireless. A communication has been received from W. C. Noyes and Son, electrical contractors Of Ticonderoga, N. Y., reporting reception of the Palladium broadcast. The reception was "faint but clear" at a distance of about 700 miles, and further information regarding the set is requested. Another card from Maine also reports hearing the Palladium, but complains that it does not come in very clearly during static.

Committeemen, with their telephone lines, are: Reuben Macey, 174; Luther Leibplt, 176; George Myers, 178; Ed.
