Broadcast Music Is No Nuisance, Judge Finds "Popularity Contest" Causes Phonograph to Lose to Radio RIDGEFIELD PARK, X. J.— History repeats itself in the vindication recently of Radio, which was declared not to be a nuisance by Justice of the Peace Fleischmann of this city. The courts were called on years ago to establish the status of the phonograph, and also decided it was not a nuisance. The decision of Justice Fleischmann came as a sequel to a spirited battle between a Radio set and a phonograph. Audley Walsh has a Radio set equiped with a loud speaker. He entertained the neighborhood, including scores who gathered in the vacant lot across the street, with all the best that could be plucked from the air. Louis Vander Pyl, living across the street, was not convincing in his assertion that the Radio was a nuisance, so he set up on his front porch in opposition a phonograph that is alleged to have played the sextette from "Lucia" for eight hours one night. But Walsh's Radio continued in popular favor and Pyl finally appealed "to the Board of Health. Failing to get relief there he went to the Justice of the Peace and asked him to silence the Walsh Radio as a nuisance. Testimony was heard, speeches made by lawyers and everything, and the Justice decided for Radio. It is the phonograph that is silent now. ROB PAY TELEPHONES TO SUPPLY AMATEURS Clip Receivers But Quit When Found No Good BOSTON'. — Another brand of thief has arisen in Greater Boston through the wave of popular interest in Radio. Many telephone receivers from public pay stations of the New England Telephone and Telegraph Company have been ripped from their attachments to provide ear pieces for Radio listeners. The thieves, however, are believed to be inexperienced persons, for, the telephone officials say, the type of receiver in use for telephone sets is practically unfit for Radio use. "It was very seldom, in the days before Radio became so common," said a telephone company official, "that telephones were tampered with in the pay stations, other than the coin boxes. But proK some enthusiastic but inexperienced Kadiophans or else thieves who hoped to profit by their sale to Radiophans, cut off the receivers, only to be disappointed. Apparently the word has been passed around among Radio enthus: that these receivers will not work, as the thieving has died down."
