• 5 . University chimes are located in the tower of the Law Building. One microphone was plaoed there. The organ used is located in Smith Memorial Music Hall and one mike was placed there. These two points are about five blocks apart and the sta¬ tion is four blocks from the Law Building# The announcer remained in the studio at the station. The organist wore ear phones and followed the progress of the chimes by that means# It went over very well and we are making it a regular Saturday after* noon feature during the next few weeks# "A program new to us, but not to many other stations, was started this fall and had to do with the Parent-Teaoher group# The programs are supervised by a local P.T.A. organization which is responsible for music, talks, etc. "To the station, the only new equipment added during the summer is an RCA cathode ray indicator. We have also built a new four-channel remote control pick up. This was designed and built by W. £• Phillips, our engineer. WILL is on the air thirty-one hours weekly at the present time# In addition to the two studios in the main radio building we have two studios in Lincoln Hall, three in Smith Music Building, one in the Band Building, and all together, twenty—seven pick up points where we can pick up a broadcast on a notice of an hour or two#" # From KFJM, University of North Dakota, Prof. Jenkins writes * "We have just completed a new broadcasting studio in one of the University buildings. "We have made arrangements with a number of high schools to have the pupils listen to a daily program consisting of fifteen-minute talks on Athletics, Science, Languages, Music, Education, Health, Vocations, etc. Responsibility for these pro¬ grams rests with a committee of five undergraduates who must secure the speakers and supervise the broadcast. These innovations are planned to interest high-school pupils and university students in educational broadcasts. "We also have other periods of broadcast with music, and talks by faculty members on a variety of topics." An interesting letter from Major Powell, Director of WRUF, University of Florida, tells of two cases in which WRUF played an important role. The first concerned an airplane lost in the swampy section of Florida. Information relayed to the coast guard as a result of WRUF announcements resulted in the location of the plane within a few miles radius. The second told of valuable help in handling relief messages by short wave radio during the reoent storm in South Florida. Staff members from WRUF took short wave equipment into the storm area and maintained communication until lines could be installed.
