Show 4 THE WEBER HERALD TUESDAY, APRIL 18, 1922 WHY NOT INSTALL THE POPULAR RADIO AT THIS SCHOOL? SPORT SPLINTERS If Weber is to keep step with other high Bchoola and colleges of the state and of the country she should have un efficient up-to-date wireless installation. Tht; value of such a nyslem would he very great and the scope of its application almost unlimited. The Installation of a wireless at We-her would nifei with the instant and , enthusiastic approval of a great number of students. These students would be more than !ad to have the chance to operale a set; in a very short time they could become proficient in the handling of the instruments and thereby gain much valuable experience. In many of the eastern li Igh schools regular courses are offered in radio and these have become very popular with many students of both sexes. The time taken to master the rode used in wireless telegraphy would not in any way prove a handicap since a great number of the stations in opfiaiion today transmit with the radio telephone and this would prove an attraction to all; Weather reports, news and miscellaneous other valuable and timely information could he heard and posted in I he halls for the benefit of others. Such jiewM items could be copied direct, from such hiid; powered stations as thoso of Germany, France, England, Hawaii, and almost an unlimited number in 1 ho United Slates, and in this way news could be obtained anywhere from 21 to 48 hours ahead of the local newspapers. The most recent application of the radio telephone has been in the broadcasting of high class music and concerts which can bo heard with suitable receiving appa-' rat.ua over a range of one lo two thousand miles and loud enough to be audible to many persons. Prominent singers and other musicians have performed for the benefit of thousands of amateur.1? scattered all over the country and their voices or instruments, as the case may be, can be heard clear and undisiorted at. the receiving end quite in contrast to lhaf fro ma phonograph. This should prove an attractive feature to the music lovers of the school. At the writer's station, concerts and even vaudeville as well as news, weather reports and other ihings can be heard as loud and clear if not clearer lhau an ordinary Vic-i rula, from such distant poiuts as Kansas City, Chicago, Denver, San Francisco, Los Angeles. It is reported that in Pittsburg, Pa., one out of every six homes is equipped with wireless apparatus and the number of installations in homes and institutions is growing by leaps and bounds. Why then should not Weber follow the tendency of the times and install a good set. The Ogden High school has for some time been inleresterl in radio and hass pent a considerable sum for apparatus. The high schools of Salt Lake City have sets, particularly our sister institution the L. D. S. V., have excellent installations. The University of Utah is now installing a fine station and offers college credit for elementary or advanced work in radio. Chicago's 22 high schools have been equipped with wireless at a cost of several thousand dollars and almost every high school in the east can boast of a wireless station of some sort. The city of Ogden has realized the importance of wireless and has ordered the immediate installation of a very fine set in the city hall for the use of the Ogden Radio club in broadcasting police reports and in benefiting tile public generally. Weber, then, should install a wireless set because, first, it would prove beneficial, instructive and enjoyable to the students. Second, it would put Weber in communication with other high schools of the country. Third, it would provide the basis for a course in radio in which either college or high school credit could be given. And fourth, it would be well worth the initial cost for the news reports, high class concerts, weather reports .and other interesting and valuable information of any kind. The true value of radio can be realized only by those who have worked and studied and played, perhaps, with this absorbing and most popular of all hobbies. Nearly half a million amateurs can testify to the wonderful possibilities of the wireless telegraph and telephone. In conclusion I might ask, "What, if anything, could prove a more profitable investment for a school or college, and particularly, the Weber Normal college, than an efficient wirelessinstallation?'- R.

It was generally considered by the coaches that Weber displayed the best brand of ball of any team in the race during the first night of play. Weber neer once slackened her pace, accurate basket shooting and her passing was splendid. Couch and Budge were human whirlwinds. The guards also played well. Weber ran up the score during tiie first few minutes; many substitutions were made from this time on.

In the yesterdays when a young man called on his sweetheart her mother and father were always at home. The parents would "chaperon" the young couple by remaining in the room until the young man said "olive oil." There was always a large grandfather clock; on one side of this sat the young man and on the other side sat her ladyship. And the clock said, "Take your time! Take your time!" Today when Mr. Future calls on his sweetie the parents are out or have excused themselves. The two always sit on the sofa with an Ingersol between them and the watch keeps saying, "Get together!

The inauguration of the new president of the University of Utah, Dr. George Thomas, took place on April 5. $'Z2.

The smooth," Pete told one of the staff members, and then related a conversation with Miss Bailey to prove his point. She thought, to begin with, that her father was going to adopt him. Pete was surprised to know this and asked her what made her think that. "Well," she answered, "when you were playing cards with Pud the other night he said, "I believe I'll raise you, Pete." So it looks to us like Sherman might get into the family. Miss Bailey was heard inquiring about Pete's job. She asked his brother if he wasn't an officer and received this reply: "Well, he's not exactly a policeman but he goes with them an awful lot." Some time after this the writer heard Pete say, "If you were to throw me over I'd get a rope and hang myself on your front gate." "Oh, 'please don't," she pleaded. "You know father doesn't like you hanging around here." The students, it may be, would like to know how Sherman first came to meet Miss Bailey. It was a pitiful mistake, an error sad and grim.
