1928 THE TECH REVIEW 125 TECH RADIO CLUB Sugarman, Mucci, Weaver, Mr. Peabody, White, Hyman, Frail, Meadus, Durfee, Danella. The Tech Radio Club The Technical High School Radio As- sociation has just enjoyed its twelfth and most successful year, under the direction of Mr. H. B. Peabody as faculty ad- visor. As usual the club has held twenty- eight regular meetings and several special meetings. The officers of the club are: John S. Meadus, President; George Durfee, Vice President; Angelo Danella, Secretary; Harold Frail, Treasurer; Al- mon T. White, Librarian. This club was started in the spring of 1916 by a group of students interested in the science of: Radio which was then called “Wireless.” Many of these boys are now actively engaged in the radio business in this city. Since then the club has bought and sold materials and ac- cumulated a great deal of stock which is used to build and repair sets and for ex- perimental purposes. During the past year we have done about $800 worth of business. The club has paid for a.l u - terials on hand, now has a cash balance, and is able to pay its members for the work done by them. This year we have aroused anew the interest that was once held in code prac- tice, and six of our members have suc- ceeded in passing the code test and thus have become active members. The regu- lar meetings are held every Wednesday afternoon at three o’clock in 5-12, and we cordially invite any member of Tech that is interested in radio to attend these meet- ings. —J. S. Meadus, President.

1928 THE TECH REVIEW 127 Senior Orchestra The Senior Orchestra is a group of about 40 of the more advanced players of the three upper grades in Technical High School. They are a fairly well balanced group, being well equipped in most instrumental sections, but weak in some branches such as cellos and double reeds. But as time goes on we hope to overcome this handi- cap and present to the public a finely or- ganized and balanced group of players, £ I ASIA { 6 Dinf.— Special Lunch and Dinner Daily Dance.—Asia Serenaders Entertainment—Cabaret De Luxe Where the Food and Service Arc Best” Banquets, Socials and Bridge Parties Solicited E 162 WESTMINSTER STREET PROVIDENCE, R.
