Johnston, '22E, has been chosen to take charge of the re-ar- rangeemnt and to act thereafter as chief operator. It is understood to be the intention of those in charge, however, to move the radio room itself to another part of the engineering building. The present location is in room 103. but it is possible that the new installa- tion nay be placed in the sub-base- ment at the extreme north end of the building. New Equipment Plauned It is also planned to install as much new equipment as possible, this per- haps to include a continuous wave transmitter, althpugh the old spark sending set will still be used for gen- eral work. An application has gone in to Washington asking for a renewal . ot, the old provisional special amateur license, and for a return of the call letters "8XA", with which this sta- tion has so long been identified. This license expired sometime last-spring, and, during the recent tests of the Western Conference Radio News serv- ice, the equipment has been operated - - "' " -- ' - -- - 111 ai ! s , 1 a f ,. f r t 3 under the direction of the signal corps, the signal corps call, "WU9", being- used.',I - Prof. Cannon Approves Prof. Joseph H. Cannon, of the electrical engineering department, has expressed his enthusiasm in regard to the prospective news service now being,developed, and has stated em- phatically that any reasonable de- mands made for the betterment of lo- cal conditions would be supported by his department. He, together with Prof. John C. Parker and Prof. Ward F. Davidson, both of the -electrical enginering department, has indicated that the radio station would be opened freely to the handling of such proj- ects as the present, in which efforts would be made to, use the equipment for a real purpose. Additional' tests for the establish- mint of a working system to be con- ducted earlier in the evenings than heretofore, were conducted Saturday night and~last night between the va- rious Big Ten universities, and it is hoped that the service may be put under 'way for dependable use at the time of the more important football games of the fall. Wisconsin Gets Appointment In connection with the changes made in the scheme of communica- tions, bulletins recently sent out by the local office of the Western Con- ference--Radio News service announc- ed at least the temporary appoint- ment of the University of Wisconsin station, "9XM", to te position of cen- tral station to su d "9ZN", of Chi- cago. The change was made because of the fact that local regulations pre- vent the operation of "9ZN" before 10:30 o'clock, central tifme. That sta- tion, however, will continue to handle the service for the benefit k of the Daily Northwestern and the Daily Maroon, of Northwestern university " Foraker's Pally" - o ' ol Sf5ITUATION TENSE Nekv Titus Serial Harold Titus, ex-'11, has recently ON EVE or I R completed a new book under the ti- tle of "Foraker's Folly" which is .to run as a serial in Everybody's maga- sine beginning with the November issue.
