Announcement from OGDEN Washington that bids on the Echc dam will be opened August 9 was the most pleasant news of the year to A. P. Bigelow, president of the Weber River Water Users association, who returned from a fishing trip with Governor H. Dern'8 party. President Bigelow was Immensely pleased over the news of the final action to assure completion of the dam. LEHI Utah lake on June 19 was higher than on any corresponding date since 1924, acording to E. O. Larson, in charge of investigation In the Salt Lake basin project. The water was reported 2.58 below compromise in the level, making 617,000 acre-fee- t lake. of seventy-fiv- e LAYTON Movement from Davis of cherries carloads county was under way Thursday, it was announced by R.

Owing to the shortage of the cherry crop in the northwest territory, there is a heavy demand for the Utah product, Need- Circuit Diagram of a Two Tube Regenerative Receiver Suitable for a Portable Set for Headset Reception. Portable That Is O. K. for Camping Set That Affords Satisfactory Range on The Earphones. Two-Tub- e By HOOD ASTRAKAN Radio World.) The camping spirit Is In the blood and those who feel the call of back lo nature are planning their trips and deciding on their, equipment. One of the first things that most of them will decide to take along is a portable radio set That Is now as important as the gun, the fishing rod and the tent equipment. A radio set that Is to be taken along on the trip to the woods must have one thing In common with all the other equipment It must be light in weight. This fact precludes the use of storage batteries for heating the filaments of the tubes In- the set. Dry cells must be used, and consequentl-y- dry cell lubes must also be employed In the receiver. The question of how many tubes to Incorporate in the set is settled by the required sensitivity, or distance-gettinrequirements, of the set. That in turn is determined by the distance the camper intends to go from a broadcasting station. There are now so many broadcasting (Tn - g stations scattered throughout the country that It Is not possible to go outside a radius of about 200 miles from one station without being within that f'.istance from some other, station. Hence the set should be sensitive enough to receive the signals from such a distance. Headset Reception. Since a loud speaker cannot very well be taken along on a very lightly equipped trip, reception may he confined to headset operation. That requirement in turn puts a limit on the number of tubes necessary in the set. receiver employing dry cell A two-tub- e tubes and using regeneration fills the from three No. 0 dry cells. These will give service for a considerable time. If extreme lightness Is necessary, it Is even possible to dispense with one of the dry cells, but the two used must be replaced more frequently than if three are used. It Is even practicable to use three smaller dry cells, such as . Ask for C batteries. The plate battery need not exceed 45 volts, and tills can be supplied by one of the small battery blocks obtainbatable. A couple of small 22V6-vo- lt teries can be used. The headset used should have a high impedance, because the impedance of the detector tube is quite high. Matching of impedances for greatest power output is of significance here, since the detector tube delivers power in this case and not merely voltage. A suitable layout of the panel is shown in Fig. 2. The loop terminals are connected to two phone tip Jacks placed in the lower left hand corner of the panei. The audio output from the set is taken out by connecting the headset to a similar pair of midget jacks placed at the lower right corner. The rheostat Is placed centrally between the tuning condenser dials. The size of the panel need not be greater than 7x10 inches and may be smaller. will be needed corn flakes 1 it 3.3-Vol- 3.3-vo- lt, milTl-empo- s;r v r f SI- - vO, - Mk h A mans appetite is just a boys grown tip!

POSTUM We often speak of China as having the oldest civilization In the world, but we seldom appreciate the full significance of the statement. I once met a Chinese by the name of Kung, who lineal descendwas the seventy-sixtant of the elder brother of, Confucius, and Confucius lived in the years from 550 to 479 B. C. That Is about as old a .family as one could find anywhere, and It Is a family whose pedigree Is h absolutely unimpeachable. The name Confucius is a Latinized meanform of the words Kung-fu-tzing Master Kung. In the family temple on the Shantung estate of the Kung family can be seen the tablets of all the ancestors of the family from 550 B. C. down to the present time. I might say further that Confucius considered, when he lived, that he belonged to a reasonably old family; he traced his ancestry back somewhere between 700 and 1,000 years.

A loop (L fn Fig. 1) is used for inducing the minute ether wiggles to enter the set. This loop should be wound to tune the broadcast band with a .0005 mfd. condenser. Cl. The loop preferably should be wound on a large frame to make It sensitive, hut a large loop Is not readily portable, Unless of the folding variety. Loops of this type which fold up into a very small and rent package can be purchased In most radio stores. The loop can also be made by the camper himself with the exercise of a little ingenuity. The essentials of a loop are about 00 feet of flexible wire and something to hold this wire. Of course the frame must not he made of metal, as this will absorb some of the energy that must be conserved for he tubes. Dry wood Is good material. In a pinch the wire can be wound around u wooden box. The coupler between the two tubes tuner of standard la a three-circumake. It is best to purchase one of the smaller types which many manufacturers make, since space g an important consideration in a portable sot. Since the circuit is regenerative, a high degree sensitivity can be obtained. The secondary coil (1.2) of the coupler should be wound so that it covers the broadcast bund with a .0003 mfd. condenser, C2. The grid condenser, C3, should have a capacity of from .0(101 mfd. to .00025 mfd. The smaller value gives a greater sensitivity on weak signals, and Is sometimes to be preferred over the larger standard value. The bypass condenser, C4, should have a value of .001 mfd. t Tubes. Use The tubes best suited to this re00 ceiver are the rubes, known as the 00 type. With these tubes the common rheostat, Rl, should have a resistance of 23 ohms, This will afford adequate volume control as well as filament voltage control.
