Massapequa High has its own radio station which club members use to communicate with other amateurs. When they are not operating over the airways, club members learn more radio theory and construction. HE Industrial Arts Club had no formal meet- ings, but the department opened its doors to the many boys who wanted to work on special projects which required department equipment. Under the watchful eyes of the instructors, the boys completed many excellent projects. Interest rose high as the members shared experiences and successful methods of operation.
