Uchtmann A factor contributing greatly to the success of our programs has been the victrola-radio-public-address system which was installed this year. This new equipment was acquired through the efforts of the Student Board of Control. The public address system was used at every home basketball and football game for announcing substitutions, penalties, etc. The victrola attachment furnishes music for dancing, both at noon and at our parties. The radio is used to provide the various classes with educational talks from all over the world. Back row: W Wittenbrink, R. Welge. W Stueven, V Wittenbrink, R Smith, K Welge, L. Wittenbrink.

The results of the noon-programs are far-reaching. The halls have almost become deserted. The study hall has become an excellent place for those who wish to study, since the noisemakers are expending their excess energy in the gym. The program, which consists of dancing, was established partly to help those boys and girls who did not dance to learn. Some of our former “wallflowers are now the most experienced “jitterbugs at our all-school parties. Another popular program this year was one in which Mr. Simmons gave talks on football and each member of the team showed exactly what he was to do in the game. Many who had not been acquainted with football before became enthusiastic fans. Back row: A. Hennrich, K. White, L. Wittenbrink, G. Harris. W. Green, A. Hoenig, L. Groene, W Hettesheimer.
