Germany Is 'Pipe If You Know How In Which Mr. Canaday Puts One Over on Mr. McCulloch, His Rival DX Friend By S. J. Boss FORT WAYNE, Ind.— There may be two more "bitter" Radio rivals in Fort Wayne than O. P. Canaday, of the Canaday Manufacturing company, and Robert. McCulloch, assistant postmaster, but if there are they haven't come forward to be recognized.

A new insignia for United States naval Radio electricians, until recently classified as gunners Radio, in Die form of "a Jagged spark," has been adopted for uniform wear,
