WIRELESS CONCERT
HUGE CROWD INTERFERES WITH TRAM TRAFFIC. • A wireless concert, arranged by Messrs. James Smith, Ltd., and.broadcasted from the front of their prem’>©« at the corner of Cuba and Manners Streets last evening, did not run its full course, the huge crowd which fathered interfering to so great an extent with the tram traffic that the police had to intervene before the performance had been in progress for an hour. The firm erected an aerial on their building and the music was broadcasted by the Federal AVireless Co. at Berhampore, being picked up on Messrs. Smith and Co?s aerial and transmitted through a magnavox. The great crowd thoroughly enjoyed the programme presented up to the time the police ' called “halt.’’ The firm hope to repeat the performance in the near future after they have made arrangements which will enable the'programme to <m through without holding up the trallie.
