Through the Static
Last night was the night, when!
tile radio wise-crueller made the'
statement, "I couldn't get Chicago I
at all lust night." In answer to tin,
astonished "No-o-o-o-oV" he re-1
plied, "No. it was silent night."
And there's upother one that's go
ing the rounds. It's far from orig
inal, but It's not so bad, maybe. jfK
about the follow who walked up to
his friend and said thafe several of
the stations were .schedulcl to
broadcast "Silent Night," but lie
tried them all and none of them
were on the air.
"Jiigoletto," by the WEAF Grand
Opera company, to us was (he most
phasing of the operas WT1G has
handled on Monday evenings so far.
As usual, the hookup was perfect
and the troupe, all trained singers,
performed their work admirably. As
We said before, these operas tiro
proving highly popular with those
who like the better class of music,
and WTIO may feel proud that, it iti
giving lo Conm ctieut residents en
tertainment which it might have to
ton-go otherwise.
Th" -Reading Railroad Revellers,
our old friends of record fame, dis
posed of a choice, program from
WJZ, proving highly entertaining.
This quartet, one of the Jjest in the
business, departs from the usual
style of groups of this sort, furnish
ing Its own accompaniment in the
way of imitations of musical instru
ments. Each number is -well put to
gether and Is SUIIK with a flourish.
"Carry Me Back to Old Virginny,"
"Don't Do Nothlns But Rain" and
several others were presented on the
way to Atlantic City. A violin and
piano aided materially in putting the
program across.
WTAM, Cleveland, was the most
prominent station on the air. It
started the evening off by coming in
fairly loud shortly after 6 o'clock,
when the earth was still bathed in
sunshine, figuratively. Then, later in
the evening, thero was no holding
the station. It nearly took the pic
tures off the wall and threw theiu
through the front windows, -where
they would have rested ingloriously
on the front porch, martyrs to vol
ume. The station was affected by
fading, to some extent, but the vol
ume prevented this factor from be
ing especially noticeable. Austin
Wylie's orchestra broadcast from 11
to 12. and then Guy Lombardo and
the Royal Canadians took the tioor,
dumping It: out In the yard and then
going back and falling through into
the cellar because the. floor was not
there and there was nothing to stand
on except faith, and that wouldn't
hold them up, for some reason or
other, especially since they had a
piano and several musical Instru
ments, too. A fellow by the name of
Dempsey, maybe lt was Jack, per
haps he's having his voice trained
now for his next bout in 1952, sang
two songs, "Don't Wake Me Vp, Let
Me Dream." just like Jack, and
"After I Say I'm Sorry.' He wasn't
so bad. The Royal Canadians also
put over a hot program In their own
original style. Hoo-IIooi
William DeLuca, cprnetiat, from
WPG,, Atlantic City, which was right
in the midst of a lot ot rubbish and
debris all evening, but which came
through spasmodically loud, never
theless, played "Fatima,' by request.
Tomorrow evening he will oh, why
state the obvious? Put down your
favorite brand and let it go at that.
He proved to be, a capable musician,
however.
From WLW, Cincinnati, came a
program of martial music offered by
the Times-Star orchestra. "The
Fighting Allies," part of a program
of war music, proved to be thrilling,

SEEKING DATA ON
Smithseniau Institution Inquires
Into American Man Eaters
Washington, April 14. With' the
departure tomorrow for the Louis
iana coast of Henry U. Colling, Jr.,
ethnologist, the Smithsonian Insti
tution initiate an exploration of an
almost forgotten area of prehistoric
lite on thi.'i continent. The region,
which extends westward from New
Orleans, was the camping ground of
the Attacopa 41 ml Chltimaeha. In
dians. . Il has. been overlooked by
arrheologisls and nothing liua ever
been written about it.
Mr. Collins, who is assistant cura
tor of ethnology In the national mu
seum and whose expedition the
bureau of ethnology is llnunclng,
will investigate the mounds in the
area with a view to determining
whether they are true mounds or
mere shell heaps, and to collect
bones, artifacts and pottery. So
far all the pottery found along the
Gulf from Florida to Louisiana has
been .similar, Indicating a cultural
relationship among the peoples and
suggesting a migratio'n rout-.
The Attacopa Indiana were one of
the few known cannibal tribes of
the American continent. Whethei
they engaged in the practice for
ceremonial purposes or for the love
of it, is not known. Other canni
bal tribes were found in Cuba. Ja
maica, Venezuela, Columbia and
Brazil.
The Cliitimac.ba possessed a much
higher culture and seem to have
been related to the Natchez. They
had the same caste system division
of the tribe into nobles and prole
tariat and their language is simi
lar. It Is interesting to note tli.it
caste .was transmitted through the
mother, so that a high caste mother
could bear high caste children to a
low ciuste father, while the children
of a low caste mother must remain
low caste no matter who their father.
Incidentally one method of climbing
I he social ladder and entering u
higher caste was to sacrifice one's
relatives at the death of a noble.
From Louisiana, Mr. Collins will
proceed to Mississippi to continue
evacuations begun last year of Choc
taw niqunds. The old belief that
these mounds were the work of some
fanciful ancient race, entirely dis
tinct from the American Indian, has
long been exploded. It jfi now
known definitely that they Ire the
work of the ancestors of the Choc
taw or related peoples, who built
them as burial mounds or more com
monly as platforms for the erection
of their temples and the homes of
their leaders.
The largest, of these mounds is loo
feet high and covers an area of
about 16 acres. When it is realized
that the builders had nothing but
crude sticks and st.ono implements
with which to dig and reed baskets
in which to transport, the dirt, the
intensity of the religious feeling
which could produce such a monu
ment may be understood.
