Column Conductor Speaks to Radiophans from WOR NEWARK, X. J. — Mr. Edward Anthony, who formerly did the humorous column in the literary section of a New York daily newspaper, spoke recently from Station WOR, located in this city. He is the author of several books, the best known of which is "Razzberry," a humorous treatment of sports. His talk to the Radiophans was about "The Humorous Treatment of Sports," followed by some of his Barnyard Ballads. Special Talks for Amateurs MEDFORD HILLSIDE, MASS. — Following the usual code practice which is Radiocast from Station WGI, twice a week there will be an amateur Radio period, during which special announcements of interest to amateurs will be made. It is expected that these short talks for the benefit of amateur listeners will help to bring about a better understanding between the amateurs and the Radiocast listeners. At the present time there seems to be friction between the two factions. This must be eliminated. WD11 Radiotron WD-11 is famous as the tube that really made possible the swift growth of radio in the home, as we know it today. Inexpensive to operate — using but one 1%-volt dry cell — doing away with the need for storage batteries — it has lowered the cost of Radio.
