The first broadcast in the morning is called, "Hints to Housewives," And tells 'the women who listen in, what to order from- the grocer lor dinner that night, and also how to prepare the meal for serving. This part of the service is prepared by a dietetic expert, and furnishes to housewives more Information than could be ob tained from a cook book, or at night Following the dinner schedule, a short musical program is played for the morning listeners, and the weather reports for the different states within the range- given.

At noon, the time signals from the Naval pbservatory at Arlington are relayed.

The first part of the afternoon is not filled, and broadcasting again starts when the latest weather report, and market quotations are given out. From 5 to 6 m. finals on all league ball games are sent.

First Kact'o Orchestra The Detroit News also has the distinction of having the first exclusively radio orchestra in the world. This is'called the Detroit New Orchestra. This organization- is featured in all concerts given out from Station J. programs are broadcasted every evening and Sunday by station J. The evening features include, The Detroit" News orchestra, the Town Crier, Lady Lullaby, and civic and university extension work sup-nlied bv the University- ot Michigan.

Sunday Church Services Two church services are held each Sunday, one in the morning and one in the, afternoon. The services consist of hymns, sermons by prominent ministers, and special, talks on subjects of the day. At various times throughout the year when well speakers are available, specal broadcasts are made of their speeches.

These broadcasts have been heard a' thousand miles and by many of people; Have Large Transmitter The transmitting set of the News Is one ot the most complete in the country. It has a set of double carbon button microphones of special design, which transforms the sound into electrical A speech current amplifier is also used to increase the power ot the michophone. The transmitting device consists of a radio transmitter with a 60 watt tube, a vacuum tube speech input amplifier and four 250 watt vacuum tubes, two used as. oscillators, and two as modulators. A five and one half horsepower provides power for" the -tubes.

The antenna is four stranded and 250 feet -long. The broadcasting studio of. the News is perfectly A large instrument room cantalns all equipment necessary for sending long distances, and another room has a piano, and faclliities for concert broadcasting. SCREENS USED AS TOURING ANTENNA PALACE TRUCK HAS RECEIVING SET, HOT AND COLD WATER, AND PNEU-MATIC BEDS A large radio receiving set is part of the equipment of a palace touring stage, owned by C. E.

A chain dragging from the body of the car gives a suitable ground. The radio set is only one of the many wonders concealed by the walls of the huge touring car.

'The resulting confusion.

has operated to discourage progress, temporarily, in a field which has already attracted a lerger range of technical, as well as amateur, abilities, than any scientific n.levelopment, heretofore. The relation of the, many stations -j owned by the various departments of fttho government to date and commer-i cial stations has also presented a per-: plexlng problem, The military and 'naval branches of the government in 'particular have contended vigorously and with Justification that their star tions ought not to be subjected to clvil-r ian control. lis Accordingly the bill for the "first j-Jtlme diffferentiates between govern -mental and military, or naval, uses of Tadio. It provides that the president ahali allocate wave lenggths which government stations shall" use for strictly governmental while other governmental, broadcasting shall be subject to the same central regula- tion and control as is malntaned for Jirivate transmitting stations, The bill also -amends provision the basic law to the effect that the wave lengths, 600 to 1,600 meters, shall reserved, in accordance with, the International convention, for military The conference was of 'the opin- Ion that all wave lengths in this large range not essential to military use, should be made available to the Accordingly, present Radio till proposes that this reservation be removed. In other words, when the tTieoverhment's essential requirements will have been determined by the pres- ident, a much larger range for broad-j casting will be available to the depart -M-Jment of commerce for allocation to the 'est possible Amateurs can then be encouraged .2 In a larger way.

ELPING the deaf to hear. Guiding ships into port through fog and darkness. Keeping fishermen yawls in touc'4 with their mother ships. These are but three- of the applications Earl, C. Hanson, a young inventor, is making of the secret of radio amplification.

Before long Hanson expects it cut down the loss of life in airplane accidents, increases the range of radio reception, make the voice carry, across the continent and eventually around the woridt By 1925 he. says it will be possible for people all over the globe to listen to the next president deliver his address! These are not the fancies(of an idls dreamer but the predictions of a prac-' tical engineer who is doing more 'to make radio useful and beneficial outside the wireless field than anyone else. He does it- by using a vacuum tube! the va'ctuphone, which amplifies a whisper so that it sounds like shouting, the tube is an inch and a half long. Yet it makes the deaf hear! In his hip-guiding, device, Hanson uses the tube to produce a musical hum in a telephone receiver worn by the navigating officer. This direcU his course- into port even through the thickest fog! He has perfected a similar, but smaller, instrument to keep fishermen in small boats from being; lost at sea.

"This vacuum tube," says the in ventor, "is the most important ele6-trical development of the. 20th century." "Its applications are almost limit less. THE WEEK WGAY Sending schedule of the Wisconsin State Journal broadcasting station, A Madison, Wisconsin. DAILY BROADCASTING 1 1:30 a. m.

Hanson began his electrical early. As a seven-year-old boy in California he used to "break doorbell circuit sb that he might watch tho electrician repair it! In elementary school ne made a wireless telephone' with which he talked over short distances. At 19 he invented an Important system ot radio During the war he gave the government use of his many inventions including his audio-piloting sytem. In this a sJiip is guided into port by the' musical ham produced by a vacuum tube, which magnetic energy created by a current in a cable laid, along the bed ot the channel.

Coils, on each side ot tha ship, pick up this energy. The navigator' listens In. When one side is louder' than the other, he knows he is getting off the course and steers his ship accordingly "Airplanes," says Hanson, "can uso the audio-piloting sytem Just as vessels do. A telephone wire from one airdrome to another could take tho place of the cable. The flyer, by listening through his receiving, apparatus, could follow this wire.

"This will greatly diminish the danger of night flying." 1 A little time and Hanson will have the system perfected by another application 'ot his vacuum tube. IN THE AIR program, followed by University Education Broadcast, 12:50 p. m. 485 meters weather forecast. 12:59 p.
