Weber This year boys and girls interested in film projection and operation formed the Film Operator's Club. Cnder the sponsorship of Kenneth Page, this newly organized club takes care of presenting sound films, film strips, slide and opaque projectors, records and radio aids. Although the main jobs of the thirteen mem- bers who belong to the club are to handle re- cordings and movies and to operate films as a service to all classes, it is also their duty to see that all movies are shipped out properly and on time. Each day the visual aid room is set up for the day’s program, schedules are checked and requested equipment is distributed to teachers. Then during the day. the members are excused from their study halls to operate the equipment. New film operators receive their training by observing the different procedures used in oper- ating the films and records as experienced work- ers run the machines. Next they do the actual work by themselves under close supervision. After several weeks of this training the new operators are given permission by Mr. Page to work by themselves. Being able to do this work qualifies each member for a lfi mm film oper- ator’s card from the Bell-IIowell Film Company of Chicago. Working on a paper drive held last fall with the music organizations, the Film Operator’s Club received enough money to purchase a new tape recorder which is being used to record music programs, talks given in the speech de- partment and various assemblies. A program of 30 minutes may be recorded on one tape strip. The officers of the elub for 1047-1048 were Loren Wymorc, president; Jack Dunlap, vice- president; and Ted Myhre, secretary-treasurer.
