Afterglow Radio Club . XYhen we first came to this school. none of us knew much about radio and less about building radio stations and receiv- ers. Under the guidance of Mr. Loren Ftevens, electric shop teacher, we soon caught on to the art. The first thing that came back he told us that he had passed the examination and that it was easy, so right away Billy Dunlap and I went over and we also passed. Following are the calls that were assigned: Gene Ferry, President of the radio club is XN'6EVQ1 Billy Dunlap, prominent French and mathematical student was given lY6IKLg and Phillip Cameron, the chap with the 7. Jw , , , ...TW ff we did was to form the radio club and come to school after school time on Thursdays and sit down and copy code for an hour or so until we got it down pretty good. XYhen the code was conquered, the hard part came and I mean radio theory is nothing that you can learn over night. lt took us about two months of good hard studying to get it into our head. but then came the reward-we were go- ing over to the customs House in San Francisco to pass our examination. NYC had waited for this opportunity for a long time and then the time did come we were all afraid to go over. Eddie .Xl- cala, the fellow with the big block M was the first one to go over and when he glasses and next terms R. O. T. C. com- mander was assigned XN'6ITV. The boys did fine work during the Los .Xngeles fiood and earthquake and the Long Beach Flood by sending messages for people to the flood stricken area, all other means of communication was wiped out. The operators will return next term to act as instructors to new members of the student body who wish to become radio operators. The well dressed man in the center of the front row is Mr. Stevens. Former naval radio operator and electrician who is now the adviser and instructor of the radio club. Edward Alcala The Man with the Blockf' is NY6IGfX. Ed has worked all continents with his station.
