218 ROOMS AT TECH LINKED TO LOUD SPEAKER

Pupil-Installed Address System Put to Work for First Time. The **lß clav-rooms and auditoriums in th** several buildings on the vast Technical High School campus have been linked together by a public address system devised by Robert Auble, school radio shop teacher, and Harry Markus, school electric department head, with funds for the apparatus paid for by gifts from graduating classes. The system was installed by the pupils. Using a small microphone on his desk. Principal DeWitt S. Morgan may. at any moment, speak to any classroom or all classrooms. The programs originate in the studios of the Communications Center, a small building erected by carpentering pupils. After two and one-half years of work and experimentation, the system was introduced to the pupils and teachers this week through the 218 loud speaker installations. Program Is Broadcast The program included a radio concert and a talk by Mr. Morgan. Leslie Bradley, pupil announcer, made the announcements and explained the system. The school will soon offer a course in radio program making. The unit in the main auditorium is interconnected with the Communications Center, so that programs originating on the stage may be transmitted to the school. By use of the telephone, it is possible to speak through the main amplifier system from any telephone on the grounds. The signal to warn teachers that a program is coming is a telegraph code, running 15 seconds, which means: "Hello, Tech, calling Tech.” Requires Skilled Crew The maintenance and operation of the system will call for a skilled crew from radio classes of the electrical department. A double purpose will be served in providing the school entertainment and affording an opportunity for pupils to learn the vocation of radio maintenance. The school plans to organize announcing staffs which will receive training from the speech department. Pupils with talent will be encouraged to organize programs. The equipment and installation cost approximately S4OOO. This was obtained from an accumulated surplus left by graduating classes above the casts of the various class gifts. All cabinets and loud speakers were designed and constructed in the school shops. During the construction period practically all vocational departments had a share in the work, either in the selection of materials, making blueprints or assisting in the tests.

BRUNO’S WIFE IS WILTED BY TRIAL ORDEAL

Woman's Features Take on Ghostly Appearance in Courtroom. BY JANE DIXON United Prrss StafT Correspondent FLEMINGTON, N. J„ Jan. 25. Anna Hauptmann is no more than a gray ghost of a woman. Her ->shen lips, always thin and drawn down at the corners by weariness of hard work and by sorrow, are sunken. Purple shadows are in the deep iurrows under her dulled eyes and around her prominent nose that has been sharpened by the chisel of distress. The back of her neck looks thin and drawn and transparent. She has not bothered to curl her muddy blond hair. It brushes out in wisps beneath the brim of her black felt hat with its small quill that looks so forlorn and unseemly in its drab ensemble. Mrs. Hauptmann is concerned about her husband. She watches him continually as he gives his testimony. Just before he stepped to the stand today she chatted with him. Change Is Showing What she intends for a smile turns out to be a grimace with bloodless lips drawn back over prominent teeth. Those who have not seen Anna Hauptmann since her ordeal in court began would be shocked by the change in her appearance. Never an attractive woman, she is today a husk of whatever woman she might have been. Hauptmann himself is something of a shock when the bright winter sunshine streams in through the high courtroom windows and lights up his palxor. Snow drifts outside and frost on the panes constitute a merciless lighting effect that throws into strong relief the greenish-yel-low that suffuses his skin. His cheek bones, rough-hewn, appear broader and more prominent by reason of the shadows in his cheeks. His chin is hard and outthrust. His mouth is tight and straight. Shoulders Betray Strain Only in his shoulders does he betray the blows that have been lained, mercilessly these past two days, upon them. They are thinner and they have taken on a downward slope, these shoulders that were so square and so defiant only a few weeks ago. Anne Lindbergh, the mother who mourns, will not hear the protests, the explanations, the guttural monosyllables of the German carpenter. She waits in the Englewood home of her mother, the widowed Mrs. Dwight Morrow. She, like Col. Lindbergh, is convinced of che guilt of Hauptmann. It would not be surprising if she wants judge and jury to impose the extreme penalty. And Anne Lindbergh is the gentlest, the kindest, the most generous of women.

Hearst Teacher Crusade Assailed by Dr. Oxnam De Pauw Head Bitterly Attacks Campaign Against Liberal Professors in Tall* to Trustees. By Times Special GREENCASTLE. Jan. 25.— Opposition to the Hearst newspapers’ crusade against liberal teaching in American colleges and universities has been voiced by Dr. G. Bromley Oxnam, De Pauw University president. In his address to the university's trustees Tuesday. Dr. Oxnam declared: ‘ Our schools are apt to face a serious attack, by sinister interests

who profess to hate Fascism and Communism, but whose methods create the conditions which destroy> faith in democracy and cause un- j thinking men to turn to other proposals. ‘‘l refer to the menacing organization of minority groups, who mobilize self-interest, create their lobbies, bludgeon representatives through threats of reprisal and thus turn institutions dedicated to the common good into the service of special privilege. “To cover their activities they launch attacks upon opponents, seek to stifle free discussion, poison the sources of information at their source, strive to dub every opponent by some label carrying emotional content and leading the unthinking to believe it unpatriotic. “The Hearst papers are launching such a crusade, and Syracuse and Columbia have been attacked. Fortunately. they are organizing a counter-attack.” 53 KROGER STORES SOLD Oklahoma Group Transferred to Western Grocery Chain.
