Editing the Airlanes

ELECTION BROADCAST—The big topic of the nation at the present is the election. The campaign will come to a radio climax on Monday night when both candidates finish their appeal for votes with broadcasts over all three major networks. Wendell L. Willkie and Charles L. McNary will be heard in joint addresses from 9:15 to 10 o'clock that evening.
On the following day election returns will be heard beginning at 5 o'clock in the afternoon, a quarter of an hour after the first polls close in many eastern states.
Besides special Election Day features, there will be an interview with the oldest voter in the country. Also to be heard will be the younger voter, who must have been born before 11:59, Nov. 5, 1919.
Reports of the election returns will be given regularly in five-minute bulletins during the early evening, but as results become conclusive, regular program schedules will be abandoned, and the tallies will be on the air continuously.
BYSOM ON THE AIR—To be heard every Sunday morning over WREN at 12 o'clock is the orchestra of Clyde Bysom. Each week the band and glee club present a Joe MacAnarney arrangement of a Campus fraternity or sorority song during the program.
MUSING ON HUSING—By kickoff time each Saturday, Ted Husing, Columbia football announcer, knows that Tom Jones, left half rubs his hands before getting the pass from center. That enables Ted and his assistants to spot complicated spinners and sneak plays. He also watches John Smith, the right end. John always glances nervously at the stands when his number is called to receive a forward pass.
Ted's method is simple. First he selects the most promising football game of the coming Saturday. Several days before the game, he travels to the home town. He haunts the practice fields, carefully watching players and coaches on each team. He visits fraternity houses and college hangouts. Ted interviews the star halfbacks, the waterboys, and the head coaches. The night before the game, he assembles all of the data on index cards like a college man preparing a term paper. Then he's ready.
Husing has streamlined football broadcasting. To combine accuracy and speed in his reporting, he invented a gadget called an annunciator. It cost $800 to build. Only Ted and assistant Jimmy Dolan can figure out its complicated push buttons and flashing bulbs. The lights indicate the players; the buttons are used to manipulate the lights so that Ted can visualize each play and report that play to the radio audience. Jimmy watches the game through powerful field glasses and relates all substitutions and details to his partner. Ted fingers the annunciator and describes in orderly form the chaos which surrounds a football game. His rapid fire delivery is as quick and as sure as an all-American's bullet pass.
College students like Husing. However, one exception to this are the men and women of Ohio State. This Big Ten school dreads Husing. To them he is a jinx. For seven years State lost every game that Ted handled. Then he picked a breather, and the Buckeyes nosed out their opponents. But the very next year, the boys from Columbia embarrassed Husing again by losing a major game to a Big Ten rival.
WE ARE SQUELCHED—For the past week the writer of this column has been seeking drak corners wherein to hide. Several errors were in the last Airlines. One in particular should be corrected: the "Cavalcade of America" does not come over station WREN. It's over WDAF.

Craik Charges Dismissed Yesterday
Eldon Craik, several times a student on Mt. Oread and now living in Topeka, was released yesterday from a charge of assault on a plea of change of venue at his preliminary hearing. The justice court of Robert Oyler found that the alleged act of assault occurred in Osage county, outside of its jurisdiction.
Milton Beach, county attorney, had filed charged of assault with intent to kill against Craik on Oct. 23. Edward Fetty, of Lawrence, was the plaintiff. The altercation in question occurred Monday night. Oct. 21.
Craik may have to stand trial on the same charge in Osage county.
