PAGE ELEVEN Fall Football Broadcasts Add to Enjoyment of Radio Owners !MEDFOKT) MAIL TRTBTUTE, arETTFOKD, OREGON. THURSDAY, yOYErBER 9, 1933. FREE INSPECTION FOR RADIOS PLAN OF DEALERS HERE Padlo entertainment .hu come to be one of the most Important of home features in the great majority of American families. Yet radios are comparatively new. Many of them have become obsolete or tn disrepair bo that proper reception 'of the ex cellent programs, perfect in tone and quality, which any good broad- Y casting station la capable of putting on the air, Is possible. Realizing the enjoyment the public receives from Improved radio recep tion, the California Oregon Power company, In line with their wish, so they state, to give t.neir customers the 'greatest possible service from anything electrical, have arranged to co-operate with the radio dealers In the community to the extent 01 iur- nlshlng a free radio Inspection serv ice at no cost to the radio owner. A Qualified radio operator has been em- cloyed by the company, so It Is stat ed, who Is available to check radio sets and make recommendations for improved reception. This service should be productive of much better radio reception to Medford people. There Is probably no other form of entertainment which offers such wide selection and at the same time costs so little as the programs re ceived over the radio. During the . past year a tremendous Improvement has been made in the construction of radio sets, together with substan tial reductions In the price of radio receiving equipment. The addition of short wave reception to the regular broadcast wave band which brings programs from all parts of the world, police reports, airplane transmission as well as automatic volume control, better selectivity, range and tone quality, places the radio in the fore ground as the cheapest and finest source of home entertainment. It Is the belief of the California Oregon Power company, bo they state, that radio Is of such universal en tertainment value that it Is the duty of the company to provide an expert, disinterested inspection of radio equipment In Medford In order that the owners of faulty and Inadequate radio sets may be Informed as to the exact difficulty so that If they wlah they may take the necessary steps to obtain perfect radio reception In their own homes. This service to their customers is In line with the far-sighted business program of the company to make it possible for the users of electrical equipment to ob tain the greatest possible service from the electricity they pay for.
