Since September 600 films have been shown on the Wilson cam- pus, about 50 in the auditorium and 550 in the classroom, all 400 foot reels. Among these were films on commercial aviation, athletic events, national park pictures in color, Coast Guard communications, William Tell, how to use the library, The Plainsman, and dozens dealing directly with class problems. Many films were shown in classrooms on projectors borrowed from the Board of Education. The Bell and Howell movie projector and screen belong to the student body and were bought by them for approximately $1000. The 13x18 foot mercury coated screen is the same as those used in theaters. This projector has brought to Wilson opportunities to use superior teaching techniques. New' Sound Projector Shows I la i n s m a eb 21»
