Cleveland Golfers Hocking Clubs
Cleveland, O., Feb. 3.-Cleveland
tectives making daily rounds of
pawnshops here declare the one thing
they never run across among the list
of articles "hocked" is the golf club.
Whether golfers as a class are be-
yond financial difficulties to the extent
of pawning their sticks or whether
their clubs are last,"to be hocked" inI
an emergency is unknown, but it
seems that golf clubs are among the
few things which may not be found in
pawnshops.

SENDING WIRELESS NEWS
In the old days before the war,
when amateur radio was in full swingt
Michigan's station over on the engi-
neering building was nationally
known and her old call, "8XA," was
nightly heard allthe way from Frisco
to the Atlantic and clear across the
gulf to the south. But of late the set
has been practically out of operation
and its call is now among the list of
the has-beens, wirelessly speaking.
When questioned recently, however,
regarding the possibility of re-install-
ing at Michigan something of a simi-
lar, though more practical, nature to
that in vogue before the war by the
installing of a radio news service for
the carrying on of dispatch work
along a near-commercial line between
the various schools in this part of the
country, Prof. Joseph H. Cannon, of
the electrical engineering department,
expressed his approval of the idea,
and stated that the station here would
be ready to co-operate.
Coast Schools Co-operate
The suggestion that such a service
mightube instituted came partially as
a result of the finding of a report in
the University of Washington Daily to
the effect that arrangements are now
under way among the colleges of the
coast to establish an exchange radio
news service in connection with the
Pacific Intercollegiate Press associa-
tion.
According to the story a message
has already been picked up from the
University of California by a Seattle
amateur reading, "We are ready to
communicate," and Stanford and Ore-
gon universities, as well as the Uni-
versity of Montana, are ready for the
work to begin. The Oregon Agricul-
tural college also expects to have its
set ready for operation by March 1.
The purpose of the service is to
make possible the handling of news
dispatches betwen the various colleges
and to enable them to send back and
forth the reports from various ath-
letic contests by wireless, instead of
having to use the telephone or wire
as at present. It was in the hope that
such an arrangement might be worked
out in this part of the country as well
fas in the West that the subject was
brought up.
Lack of Responsibility
"The only reason," Professor Can-
non said, "why we have not put this
station in operation on the same plan
as before the war is that we were
always troubled in the radio room by
the presence of a lot of youngsters
who had no business to be there. We
had to pay operators in order to have
someone responsible for the appa-
ratus, but they seemed to want to go
down there and use the set more as
a plaything than for any serious
work.
"We can't afford to pay out $600 a
year," he went on, "simply for the
pleasure of a few students, and so we
closed down the station from contin-
uous work. But," he added, "if any
of the students want to do any serious
experimental work that set will be
open for their use."
Professor Cannon also added that
if the publications wished at any time
to use the University apparatus for
the handling of any sort of news dis-
patches or for the receiving or trans-
mitting of the scores of athletic con-
tests he would have no objection to
the set being used.
Radio to Be Used More.
In fact a letter was recently re-
ceived from Purdue to the effect that
the score of the Purdue-Michigan bas-
ketball game last Monday night would
I be sent out by radio from Lafayette
as the game progressed and only the
fact that this communication was re-
ceived too late to permit the use of
the set for that purpose prevented the
station from taking advantage of it.
In regard to the complaint that the
station had not been used lately for
amateur communication, as it was
used before the war, Professor Can-
in a normal condition the industry is
active and running smoothly. Motor-
cyclists in general have not abandoned
their machines because of the open
winter. Dealers and manufacturers
expect a normal and prosperous sea-
son during the coming year.
