Best Wishes . . . Robert Hurd!
Sincere wishes for a speedy recovery are extended to Robert Hurd, KFI-KECA tenor, who has been ill for some time with complications resulting from a throat operation. As we go to press, the Program Department of KFI assures us that Mr. Hurd is improving rapidly and we hope that the time is not far distant when the radio audience will again be enjoying Mr. Hurd's concerts.

If one expects to see wireless masts, great steel affairs almost brushing the clouds, as at Arlington, Va., they will be disappointed when approaching Station KDKA, which houses the most powerful radio equipment in the world. The masts used for the long wave transmission are five in number, arranged in circular form, and look like over-grown wooden teleghaph poles. Wood is used because it does not absorb the current, as does steel.
