The four Hartnett horses which have been assigned to this task are Great Scott, Wild Wave, Black Sand and Sure Put. Great Scott, in addition to being the headliner in the jumping events, is also, according to Mr. Hartnett, one of the prettiest specimens he has ever surveyed, and this grace and' beauty are qualities which have been admired along with his ability to jump. In the Lake Forest events of July 20 and 21 where he met some of the best horses in the country, Great Scott proudly pranced away with three of the ribbons. The Palatine fair opened Wednes- day of this week and closes next Mon- day evening. The horse show opened Friday and closes Sunday night. Sun- day night is the date of the Hunter Championship event which was won last year by Mr. Hartnett's Melwood, and in which his Gibson Girl took fourth. RCA's New Receivers and Loudspeakers Arrive A new line of Radiolas including su- perheterodyne receivers utilizing AC radiotrons throughout, for simplified electric operation with self-enclosed loudspeakers of the improved dyna- mic type, and a new loudspeaker of artistic design, is announced by the Radio Corporation of America. Point- ing out that "years of intensive re- search and constant development by the leading radio organizations have served to confirm the soundness of basic principles represented in the superheterodyne circuit," the an- nouncement reads, "Now, with the ap- plication of AC tubes to the super- heterodyne circuit, following the ex- ample set with the improved tuned radio-frequency circuit, broadcast re- ception takes another step forward towards the ultimate of perfection." Milroy Music company, 569 Lincoln avenue, Winnetka and Alex Smith, 344 Park avenue, Glencoe, announce the new AC superheterodyne receivers are introduced in three models to be known as Radiola 60, a popular priced table model, Radiola 62, a console cab- inet with enclosed dynamic speaker, and Radiola 64, a larger console cabi- net with a dynamic speaker of great- er power.
