By EARL HOFF

Broad Ripple High School music pupils have acquired a new critic with an infallible judgment. The critic is a standard model combined radio, record player and recording machine.

Sometimes one or two of the drummers at the school bring recordings of their favorite artists .to school to listen to after classtime. Things get so noisy then that you cin hardly think, Mr. Hall said.
