Lovett to look ovei some of the dangerous aerials. "1 have pleaded with radio funs tc remove their dangerous aerials, ant I regret to slate, that unless thej do, there may be more deaths and property damage by fire," sale Lovett. Lovett said he would Insist that all Dwners of radio sets obtain permit! from the Hty electrician's department ss provided by the city ordinance This will enable the city to make s thorough investigation of the aerials In every instance where dangerou! serials were found, Lovett notified the owners to remove the hazard im mediately.

This aerial runs from a tower on the roof of the house to a large tower on the garage. The structure on the garage is built be tween two service wires leading from the pole to the house. The photo graph shows two single wire aeriHls and one four-wire aerial fastened to the garage tuwer. In case of failure of either of the single wire aerials to hold they would fall and come In contact with 110-volt service wires, with the re sult that one or both of the radio sets attached would be burned up.

Apparently, realising the hazard of the electric light wire ruhhing against the structure the owner had one wire fastened to the tower with a porcelain insulator. During a recent storm ihe wire was pulled loose. Constant rubbing of this wire against the structure or the guy mires might, under certain conditions, set fire to the garage. In case of a serious wind storm the guy mires, which are fastened to the roof by small nails, would be pulled loose and the entire aerial structure pulled over on the electric light mires and the radio sets would he burned up, aerial wires would be charged mith high volts of electricity, and any person unfamiliar with electricity who happened to come in contact j with them would be seriously Injured I and possibly killed. .“>00 Delegates Exported at Kearney C.
