The step was taken because of the interference caused by these stations whose equipment is not up to standard. Tables Turned on "Hello World" Turn about is fair play, and so Loyola University, which operates Station WWL, at New Orleans, La., is seeking to oust W. K. Henderson and his Hello World Broadcasting Corporation, which operates Station KWKH, at Shreveport, La., from the channel which they now share. In an application just filed with the Federal Radio Commission, WWL asks an increase in power from 5,000 to 10,000 watts and full time on the 8500 kilocycle channel. Henderson recently asked for full time on the same frequency and in increase in power from 10,000 to 30,000 watts. While the Radio Commission has not yet acted, Examiner Elmer W. Pratt recommended, following a hearing, that Henderson's application be denied because KWKH was not operating in the public interest. During the hearing last Fall, some priests from Loyola University expressed themselves as shocked at some of the language used by Henderson over the radio. To Record "Bad" Station Programs Broadcasters who are summoned to hearings on charges of violations of regulations or failure to operate in the public interest, will be confronted in the near future with phonograph records of their programs. The Federal Radio Commission is making inquiries among manufacturers to find the best recording device for the purpose of taking down verbatim reports of stations under investigation. Ordinary home models are not adaptable to this sort of work, it was said, and something like the standard unit used in making master phonograph records is needed. Heretofore, the Commission has relied upon stenographic transcripts of certain portions of broadcasts, but this method has been found cumbersome and not unquestionable.
