BROADCAST ARRANGEMENTS United Press Association—By Electric Teleeraph —Copyright LONDON, November 14. Elaborate arrangements are being made for the broadcast commentary on the Duke of Kent’s wedding.

Hence a number of cerefully concealed microphone circuits lead to points the whole length of the Abbey, from the altar to the bells. Thus each part of the service can be relayed in unbroken sequence as it arises, the operator swinging over from microphone to microphone.
