The finny fellows bit greedily and in a short time they had enough black bass and pickerel to feed a party twice the size of theirs. After supper all repaired to the cabin, and the boys donned phones, while Cub started a broadcasting campaign in search of information regarding the two Canadian wireless contestants, who seemed to have made a trio of monkeys out of the three radio motor-boat boys.
One day he told us that he had attended a Joint Services Committee which had been set up to study the requirements for building a broadcasting station in Athens.

"Pretty soft," said Larry. "How do you fellows come to rate an automobile?" "Oh, we've got a big drag around this town," replied Bob. "I guess they'd give us the Town Hall if we asked for it."
Dale skillfully threaded his way through it and after a drive through narrow streets lined by foundries and factories, and across the broad meadows, and past more places of business, they at last drew up before the big broadcasting station.
