San Francisco Chapter 16 Advancing Rapidly in Educational Work By FRANK L. SEAVIER The next year brings forth many problems along projection lines which have never been taken up by any Society as yet. Our Chapter will endeavor. during the next year, to solve and explain through professors and engineers, these new problems. So far, our lecture courses, which are held every Tuesday night of each week, are planned over a long period. Many surprises are in store for our members; simplified pictures will be shown for our Society — a television apparatus has been placed at our disposal ; amplifier outfits which are of a new type — a new projector which will soon be placed on the market will be shown. Also, we expect to solve, in a clear and concise manner, some of the more intricate screen recording amplifying and projection ideas, which 1o some are quite intricate. We aim to have these explained in a simple way, so that they may be understood by all of our members. We aiso intend to have a few social evenings the next year. During the year 1930, we feel a great good has been done our members. I wish to take at this time, the opportunity to thank all the officers of San Francisco Chapter No. 16 for the wonderful support they have given me during the year. Also, wish to thank those members who have given their time to make the success of our Chapter which has been made during the last year. Our attendance has been splendid. Along those lines at this time I wish to say . . . Those members from now on who fail to attend the lectures on each Tuesday night are missing the chance to obtain knowledge which they cannot receive S i xte e n FRANK L. SEVIER President San Francisco Chapter 16. from any books which are on the market now. I want to say that the continued prosperity of San Francisco Chapter No. 16 is placed on the shoulders of each and every member. Their interest and their attendance at these lectures are the only way that the Society can succeed. I admonish all members to attend these lectures, as the projectionists now have a great many problems placed on them, which have never been placed upon their shoulders before, and it is due to themselves and the profession as a whole, that they study, attend the lectures and carry the thought of the lectures and what they learn in their every day work. Let me here express my own and the Chapter’s deep appreciation of the wonderful lectures and the able manner in which they have been delivered before our Society by the Engineers of the E. R. P. I. and R. C. A. Corporations, as well as our most genial and learned Professor Reukema, who has given us many hours of his own time to help us solve our problems. I wish to extend to the Loudspeaker and all of the members of Chapter No. 7, my deep appreciation for the many pleasant associations and help which they have given me.
