The Piggly WiRgly Hawaiians open the week tomorrow night with their fortnightly concert, assisted by Dick and Irv.

These latter were first broadcast as a team two weeks ago, and the response of the fans was immediate. Specializing in what they term a few squeaks from Piggly Wigglys" they present humorous dialogues, solos and duets, as well as more serious selections. Following this program, the regular meeting of the Lake Merritt Ducks will be held from 9 to 10 p. m. i either locally of elsewhere.

TirnhMffn In the matter of selectivity, the superheterodyne stands supreme. Its ability to receive from one station to the exclusion of all others is approached by no other type of receiver. The ability to do this comes from a novel feature of the super-heterodyne circuit a feature peculiar' to itself. To simplify operation, super-heterodyne is now provided with uni-cbntrol tuning mechanism. With the movement of one control, station after station is brought in.

Another exclusive feature of the super-heterodyne is its sealedpin construction. Lift the loop and cover, and note the business-like, clean-cut appearance of the internal mechanism. It remjnds you of a multi-cylinder automobile. This sealed-in construction, known as a "catacomb," is a complete protection for all the most delicate parts, keeping out all dampness, moisture and dust. And to assure the finest possible clarity of voice and music, this Radiola is matched to thegreat broadcasting stations.

Its transformers, tubes and all points of design that affect tone quality are the product of the same engineers who designed the broadcasting apparatus. The product of the combined research of RCA, General Electric, and Westinghouse Radiola 28 and RCA Loudspeaker 104 are also synchronized to one another engineered from beginning to end in the same laboratories and by the same engineers. 'With this combination, you have the supreme achievement of radio today. 4 4 From all these facts, it can easily be seen that the finest "lighting "socket radio" today is something more than a radio set with battery eliminators. The perfecting of its basic principles of electrical reproduction was an important forward step both for radio and for the phonograph.

Has itpassed out ofthe experimental stage? Decidedly, yes in the Radiola 28 and RCA Loudspeaker 104, for they were far ahead of their time and, they have had a long and strenuous "road test." More convincing than words or facts more impressive than a thousand testimonials is the judgment of your own ears. Treat yourself to a rare entertainment, and at the same time check up on all the statements made here. RCA Authorized Dealer will gladly give you a demonstration, and answer any further questions. And he will gladly arrange for payment on the same sort of convenient terms that have broilght all the great things of modern life into the homes of the millions. RCA Radiola 28, with 8 Radiotrons, $260 RCA Loudspeaker 104, complete, $275 A.

Package, $35 Thus, when connected to Radiola 28, through the medium of an A. C. Package, the power unit in the RCA Loudspeaker 104 eliminates all batteries and provides operation direct from the lighting socket. When the Loudspeaker 104 is operated in connection with sets other than Radiolas, the power unit in the speaker supplies battery voltage: that is, it takes the place of batteries. The Loudspeaker 104 was, not designed for reproduction in large halls and assembly rooms.

It was intended for use in apartments and homes. While capable of great volume, it may be operated at any volume: but it should be borne in mind that one of the chief factors contributing to its realism of reproduction is the amount of power employed to actuate the instrument. Yet it is decidedly economical in operation, Adopted by the leading companies It was the first to catch the notes of the entire musical scale, reproducing so faithfully that the great phonograph companies employ it for phonograph reproduction as well. Remember, RCA Loudspeaker 104 is not just a loudspeaker. It is a loudspeaker plus a power amplifier, plus rectifying apparatus for the elimination of batteries.

Batteries would not provide sufficient energy to operate the Loudspeaker 104 satis'factorily. The power required must be drawn from the lighting socket. And its purpose- is not mere volume, but a remarkable quality of musical reproduction. Combining the finest ridio reception with the 'finest musical reproduction Hgdiala 28 The term "super-heterodyne" has carried an atmosphere of magic for the past ten years. In its original form it was a complex laboratory device, not suited for manipulation and use on the part of thosefnot technically trained.

RCA engineers took this complicated device, simplified it and produced one of the most efficient broadcast receivers known to radio. The popularity of the super-heterodyne comes from the following features: First, its great sensitivity. It is so sensitive that radio broadcast reception can be obtained from great distances without any aerial or outdoor wire. A coil wire, called a loop, takes the place of the aerial: or the loop may be replaced by a short length of indoor wire. Thus, the super-heterodyne is particularly suitable for use in apartment houses where the erection of aerials is impracticable.

Home service talk. THERE is still a vast audience not wholly satisfied with radio as they have it in their own homes, or as they hear it in the homes of their friends. There is still a vast audience not wholly informed asking what radio has really accomplished. Particularly with regard to the much heralded "lighting socket radio," there is a demand for more information. People want to know Is it safe to buy now? Shall we discard our old sets now or wait? And which sets have passed out of the experimental stage? A 'thorough comparative research has produced the answers The answers cannot easily be gleaned from the mass of advertising that assails the radio buyer today claims alike on paper.

But they have been exhaustively studied in a laboratory where every important development of radio, of all makes and sorts, has been tested and weighed and valued. And it is on the basis of this comparative research that the Radio Corporation of America has been emphasizing as the greatest achievement of modern radio reception- theRadiola 28, eight tube superheterodyne. And as the greatest achievement in musical reproduction the RCA Loudspeaker 104. The simple statement of facts which follows will show not only where successful "lighting socket radio" stands today, but why the same performance cannot be expected of the ordinary radio set. It will explain, too, why a hundred thousand people who have bought these instruments would have nothing else, regardless of price.

"Lighting socket radio" that is not mere "battery elimination" RCA Loudspeaker 104 RCA Loudspeaker 104 was the first to introduce realism in radio reception. It was revolutionary when introduced and it is still revolutionary. One of the secrets of its success lies in the discovery of a new basic acoustical principle and in the use of super-power amplifying tubes and power drive from the lighting socket. The power apparatus necessary for the actuation of this loudspeaker also contains all of the basic elements of 12 m. Time signals.
