We use Optical Character Recognition (OCR) during our scanning and processing workflow to make the content of each page searchable. You can view the automatically generated text below as well as copy and paste individual pieces of text to quote in your own work.

Text recognition is never 100% accurate. Many parts of the scanned page may not be reflected in the OCR text output, including: images, page layout, certain fonts or handwriting.

Types of Sound Aids for Schools 155 3. Commentary on indoor sports, such as basketball games, gym meets, indoor track, swimming, etc. 4. Presentation of Christmas carols and other community programs to large indoor and outdoor audiences. 5. Recordings of special programs by use of the recording attachment. Such recordings provide an excellent record for future reference. This list could be expanded indefinitely and, as stated above, new and important uses will be discovered from day to day as the school sound svstem becomes familiar to principal, teachers, and pupils. In some cases, the centralized sound systems of two or more schools are interconnected by telephone lines so a program originating at one school may be sent to all rooms of that school and to all rooms of the other schools connected with it. Again, it is suggested that those interested in the installation of this type of equipment should request the assistance of qualified sound engineers who are available for such service. It is impractical to suggest a possible price range, as very few schools have identical requirements, but quotations may be obtained quickly from any of the leading manufacturers of school sound systems. Their advertisements appear in the principal school journals and a list of principal manufacturers appears on page 224.
