Interference
QNE of the greatest dif
ficulties in the recep
tion of radio programs is
interference.
Most of us know thai
simple operations such as
turning off a light or other
device can cause a large
click or pop in our radio..
This is due to the fact that
when any electrical device
is turned off a liny spark
occurs.
These sparks are in
reality miniature radio
transmitters and although
momentary they can cause
: an annoyance when accom
panied with thousands of
other similar incidents.
Electrical disturbances
are constantly taking place
in the multitude of wires
and machines to be found
in every community.
To aggravate matters
the wires which are sus
pended like a webb and
cover the landscape act as
a conveyer of the Inter
ference permitting most of
it to be heard at a con
siderable distance from the
point of origin.
The accumulation of
noises may be heard as a
constant roar in some
areas. The condition ac
counts for ninety-five per
cent of all interference
and can be recognised by
the fact that it disappears
when local or other pow
erful stations are received.
Interference that per
sists when listening to the
local station is usually due
to a faulty radio.

by sawdust and oil, Flagg said.

After a week of. being shoved

Iho wear and
tear of school
even if final
exams did start
today.
My thanks to
Barbara Ros-
kamp who did a
a little filling in

sleuthing turned up a few facts
that 1 had not encountered on my
tours of the halls.
The Klamath Knights, who
have been perhaps more active
this year than in the past few
years in KUHS, have made and
announced plans for a Valen
tine's dance in the girls' gym
on February 9. Baldy's band
will again furnish music for the
occasion. Dancing will be in the
evening from 8:30 to 11:30,
while the admission prices will
be 74 cents for couples and 60
cents for stags.
Today the numerals on the
KUHS service flag in the main
entrance stairway to the build
ing were changed from 415 to
465, indicating that about 50
boys have enlisted in the service
since the 1944 graduation. This
number includes boys of that
graduatingN class. )
A special treat is in store for
the students on January 18. Pe
riods in the afternoon will be cut
to 3d minutes and at 3:05 an all
school pep assembly will be held
prior to the Medford basketball
games, and to wind up the semes
ter in a big way since there will
De no scnool on Friday the 19.
Performers from the girls'
tumbling team will furnish the
entertainment. Representing the
Pelican basketball team, Jim
Noreen and Jim Palmer will say
a few words before the conclu
sion of the assembly.
Immediately following the as
sembly, the Radio club will spon
sore a free all-school dance in
the girls' gym. Buses will leave
as usual, but since the assembly
is to be a short one, it will give
the bus students a chance to
dance for a while before leaving.

Misunderstanding
Causes Reduction
In Used Fat Drive
A reduction of approximately
25 per cent in used fats salvage
can be attributed to a misunder
standing on the part of meat
dealers of the facilities available
for collecting the fats, and reim
bursement to the dealer In both
ration points and actual cash
paid for the salvage, according
to D. R. Winn, WFA representa
tive from the district office in
Portland.
Winn is here on business per
taining to salvaging used kitch
en fats. Winn declared that there
has also been a tendency on the
part of housewives to relax their
efforts because of a false impres
sion of a quick victory in Ger
many. He strongly urged that
housewives and dealers combine
in their efforts to salvage as
much fat as possible.
