UP) Colombia's en tire air force is at Hampton Roads naval air station, undergoing In tensive training In the operatlion ot seaplanes. He Is Lieutenant Benjamin Men dez. 8oon, however, the force Is to be tripled. Two other army men, ranked as cadets, ere in prelimi nary training and are coming here to complete their education In aerial navigation. Pour years ago Lieutenant Men dez entered the Curtlss flying school, where he became a skilled mechanic. Last year, after becoming attached to the Colombian army, he went through a course In flying at Brook's Field, Texas, and then was graduated in advanced flying at Kelly Field. From there he went to Mitchell Field, New York, to pur sue his studies and then came here to learn more about seaplanes. WIRELESS GUIDES BICYCLE RACERS Lille, Jan. 21 P) Eighty-nine cyclist radio enthusiasts took part in a race here over a route made known to them by Aireless trans mission. Each bicycle had on the handle bars or frame an aerial , running either to a tube set or a crystal. When ah competitors were as sembled, the Lille station sent out directions ol the road to be fol lowed. After the first point indicated had been reached, another mes sage sent the radio cyclists off along other roads. For a third time directions were broadcast, the final task being to find a hidden automobile in a wood. Thirty-nine of the 89 competitors finished the race.

Hist "ih Ricttlt tf Sfsrtfn UkItkSi FSPARTON RADIO T PathfinJtt ,ftht Ah- THE CAPITAL JOURNAL LATE DEVICE WILL RECORD WAVE POWER Washington. Jan. 21 A device, which records the signal strength of long wave transmitting stations Is being perfected at the radio lab oratory of the Bureau of Stand ards. Controlled by a master clock, the apparatus Is of special value be' cause records can be taken at all times without the presence of an observer. At the Bureau of Stand ards laboratory It makes observa tions at night which otherwise would require the "liste-lng In" of one or two members of the staff. E. B. Judson, of the radio trans mission research division, Is con ducting tha experiments with the device which also measure: the strength and direction of static. The new recorder, Mr. Judson says, he already afforded valuable in formation regarding hourly varia tions in the strength of radio sig nals. Experiments conducted with stations In Europe have provided additional evidence of the effect of the sun's rays on transmission, the strongest signals being recorded be tween 7 p. m. and 10 p. m., the period of "all darkness" over the Atlantic. The receiving set used by Mr. Judson is an ordinary autodyne type with Inductively coupled an tenna and secondary circuits. The recording is done on a Cambridge- Paul recorder connected In series with a two-electrode rectifier In a circuit coupled by an audio trans former to the plate circuit of the last amplifier tube. The records are made by depressing the gal vanometer needle of the recorder by clockwork once every 30 seconds. This forces an Inked thread into contact with the paper on the ro tating recorder drum, thus making the record. Radio Fans Tell Long Stretched Speaker Tales Paris, Jan. 21 UPi Radio fans sometimes are moved to attempt to outrival their fishermen friends in the stories they tell. For example, a letter came from a far-away French colony reading like this: "I was sitting beneath my tent with my wife when a huge tiger crept up to the opening. We were fascinated and could not move. The animal crept nearer and nearer and prepared to spring. Just then a voice came from our loudspeaker. This Is the Eiffel Tower, Paris, call ing.'. . . , The tiger turned and fled, and so did we!" NO NEW LICENSES IN CROWDED ZONES Washington, Jan. 21 (Pi Com plaints received by the Federal Rad io Commission that licenses have been granted new broadcasting sta tions in the crowded eastern zone. are without basis of fact, the com mission declares. No new station has been permit ted to start operating in the east with one exception, the commission says. This Is a small 10 watt sta llion at Saranao Lake, N. Y., which has been authorized to broadcast from 9 a. m. to 1 p. m. As no broadcasting Is available in that section In the morning the com mission granted a permit. INVENTOR TIRED OF RADIO Pans, Jan. 21 UP) Wireless Is out of fashion for Edouard Bramy, who in France Is credited with being the "father of radio." Branly doesn't even have a set. It doesn't amuse him and It doesn't Interest him, "I no longer follow the Improvements in It. My researches are in another direction," he said. SHORT WAVE FEAT Vernon, Prance, Jan. 21 UP) M.

Medal For Short Wave Work New York, Jan, 21 UP) Comman der A. Hoyt Taylor, superintendent of the radio division of the naval research laboratory at Bellevue, to day received the Morris Liebmann memorial medal from the Institute of Radio Engineers. The medal, representing the highest award for accomplishment In the radio field within a year, was presented at the I. R E. con vention to Commander Taylor for his research In short wave phenom ena. He collaborated in the devel opment of useful formula for the determination of skip distances In higher frequencies. A pioneer In radio, commander Taylor began his first Investiga tions in 1899 while still a student at Northwestern university. Prom the start he paid particular atten tion to wave propragation, fading. influence of weather conditions and directive systems. Entering the naval reserve as a lieutenant In 1917, he was promoted to lieutenant commander in 1918. going tc Hampton Roads, Va., where he acted as head of the ex perimental division of the naval air Btation. In 1919 he was placed In charge of the aircraft radio lab oratory at Washington, with addi tional duties of a consulting capac ity for other naval radio activities. Early In 1923 he was made a com mander and became superintendent at Bellevue. Commander Taylor has written FOR RUBBER Washington, Jan. 21 (Pt Radio is being heralded as a potent factor in the struggle of American capital to prevent domination of the rubber growing industry by British Inter ests. Declaring that wireless service will be an Invaluable asset in the fight with British rubber producers, the Firestone Tire and Rubber company has asked the Federal Radio Com mission for a license to use a short wave channel for communication with its rubber plantations in Liber ia. The American concern says speedy communication is needed to assure a steady supply of rubber from its big plantations in the in terior of the Negro republic on the west coast of Africa. Present wire and mall service means a delay of from two days to a week, officials of the company declare. PIANO POPULAR OVER THE RADIO Chicago, Jan. 21 UP) It you should tune in some early evening on WGN, Chicago, and hear a man's voice reciting, ',E, G, B, D, F, be assured It is all right; for the daily piano lesson is on the air.

WEATHER MAPS NEED CHANGES Washington, Jan. 21 CP) There is still need of improvement In the transmission by radio of weather maps, between shore and ship and between points on shore, Capt. T. T. Craven, chief of the naval commun ication service, declares in his an nual report. The equipment at present does not give enough detail nor Is it suf ficiently rapid, the report states. However, due to the success of high frequency broadcast, warships In the Atlantic and Carribean are get ting fairly complete weather inform ation two hours earlier than it could be obtained through local weather bureaus. The shore radio stations of the navy number 56, a large' proportion of which are fully manned and give continuous 24 hour service. ARMY IN FRANCE PAID CENT A DAY Paris, (P) French soldiers still get one cent a day pay, just as before the war, but their food now costs the government 20 cents a day. Meat has displaced bread as the most expensive part of army rations. It accounts for eight cents. The soldier gets six cents worth of bread, two cents worth of wine and coffee and four cents are expended for vegetables and trimmings.

SIXES TUB VICTORY AND THB XBNTna I ENGINEERS SAY NO TO SENATE BROADCASTING Washington, Jan. zt The Amer ican people probably will not have an opportunity to hear their sena tors in action via radio. Engineers of the army and navy report that the proposed broadcast of the proceedings ot the senate is economically and mechanically In feasible. Capt. S. C. Hoover, of the navy, and Col. J. O. Mauhorgne, of the army, appointed to investigate the project at the request of the senate, declare It would cost S3 .300. 000 to establish the system and $1, 188.400 annually for maintenance. The report of the Joint commis sion will be submitted to the senate and It Is expected, in view of the adverse findings, the project will be abandoned, temporarily at least. The channels needed for broad casting senate activities to all parts of the country could not be ob tained without paralyzing existing broadcast programs, the commis sion reports. Equipment of the senate chamber with suitable trans mission apparatus is impractical at the present stage of the art of radio or telephone transmission. Engi neers of the Bell telephone labora tories told the investigators such an Installation would require an in finite amount of research conducted at great cost with no market for such apparatus if the problem could be solved except to the sen ate chamber. FIND THEATER OF ROME IN NORMANDY Lcs Andelys, France (Pi A Roman theater, apparently the largest built in Roman Gaul has been discov ered here. By its form and vast dimensions it offers the greatest interest to archaeologists and students of the history of the Roman occupation. Excavations made up to the present show that its diameter is nearly 400 feet, which it is estimated, would give a seating capacity of over 60,000. The theater at Orange, hitherto regarded as the largest in France, has a diameter of only 335 feet with t ccommodation for 42,000. Grinds Any Feed From the Ground Up!
