HOOVER FAILS
TO PERFORM ON
MICROPHONE
The Mike Got Under the
Table Instead of On
Top of It
Washington July 25. The first
nationally fidvertised ') ilent"
Kraadrast takes its place In radio
history with the president of the
United States as the featured star
who failed to perform.
Both of the national broadcast-
ing rhains had proclaimed that
President Hoover would broadcast
to the nation and to the world hia
speech incident to the pmmulga
tion of the Kellogg treaty for the
renunciation of war. It was to
be president Hoover's first radio
address from the White House.
The president made his speech
to the assembled dignitaries form'
ally promulgating the peace hut
the radio audience did not hear it.
The microphones which were to
carry the chief executives words
were under the table. They should
have been on it.
Whether the president himself
is responsible for radio's first big
bust" may never be known. The
National Broadcasting Co. and
Columbia Broadcasting system
had taken every precaution for
the broadcasting of the event. All
the preliminaries were broadcast
according to schedule but the
presidents formal address the
high spot" of the program after
a noticeable mix-up was heard by
the radio audience from the lips
of announcers.
Just before the ceremonies were
begun a White House attache
asked that the microphones which
were on the table in front of the
president be removed so that pho-
tographers might photograph the
president flanked by former
President Coolidge and former
Secretary of State Kellogg. This
was with the tacit understnding
that the mikes" would be restored
.. . .
to the table immediately after the
i photography was completed with
a two-minute interval pillowed
the radio officials for the shift.
But when the photographers an-
nounced their 0. K. the presi-
dent began his speech. Mr. Cno-
lidge and Mr. Kellogg took their
seats. The radio executives could
not interrupt the president.

CHICKASHA TO VOIE

Question Will Likeljr Be Put

Are you in favor of . Sunday

YES
NO
Tfcia will be the form of a haliot
n which the citisenship of Chrk-a-ha
m ill vote within a lew week
the opening of the picture snows
on Sunday during the pxjt few
years and Mayor Larson and th
city council believe that th prr-
ent is a good time In which to
get an expression of the
of the voters of Chickasha. If th
voter vote in favor of Sunday
shows then the council will re-
drnft the city ordinance whs h
prohibit show at present.
The opening of the city shows
will be opposed hy the minister-
ial alliance of the city and ths
leaders of the churrhea of the rity.
The city ordinance against Sun-la
shows has been in force here for
over fifteen years and the observ-
ance of it ia grounded deeply in
the people of the city.
The main argument of those in
favor of Sunday shows is that
Chk-kasha lose a number of Sun-
day visitors who would come hero
if the pkture places were open on
Sunday. Duncan to the south of
Chickasha has Sunday shows and
Oklahoma City to the north he
open shows. Those in favor of
Sunday shows point out that hun-
dreda of people go to these places
on Sunday just to attend th
shows.
Some of the labor leaders of the
city in favor of Sunday shows
claim that unleu Sunday shows
are opened that they will lead a
movement to close the golf links
on Sunday. They allege that if
no Sunday amusements are al-
lowed then golf should also bo
dosed to the well to do.
The voters of Chickasha brill
also vote at the same time on the
question of gist. ting an extra two
mill levy for the running of the
city government. In order to
make city levy legal thia year
at least 1700 people r.nxf parti-
cipate in the election. 1 ! ? coun-
cil believes that the question of
Sunday shows will bring out a
suffkient number of people to get
an expression on the levy.
