Announcers Broadcasts Repeat The PA Announcers' Good Morn- ing heralded the beginning of each day as the six broadcasters, spon- sored by Mr. William Bennett, cheer- fully addressed drowsy students with scoops on school events. The audio-visual staff unfailingly served their sponsor, Mr. William Schroeder, and their equipment. They juggled record players, movie pro- jectors, and slide projectors which faculty needed to enrich the curricu- lum. The WINX Announcers were heard all over Montgomery County at 1600 kilocycles every Saturday morning. The four Voice of WJ members worked under Mrs. Evelyn Wittman to provide the county with news of WJ events. Various speakers enlightened Miss Elsie Robinson's group of aspects of teaching, .including occupational therapy.

One of the AV staffs biggest problems was the periodic b r e a k d own of e q u i p m e n t at times of maxi- mum d e m a n dg I' e c o r d players, slide projectors and loudspeakers all contribut- ed their part to create headaches. Absorbed in the intricacies of their task, Randy Doyle and J o h n Whittier attempt to repair an af- flicted projector.
