An estimated 2,000 high school and college students as well as townspeople are expected to pass through them before they close at 9 p.m. this evening. The entire faculty and student body of Winona State extends a hearty welcome to them all. Science Day has become one of the highlights of the school year at T.C. ever since the idea was originated by Dr. Minne in 1937. Its purpose, aside from being entertaining and often sensational, is to relate science and its problems to everyday living. The members of the Science Club, which sponsors this annual event, develop their exhibitions with that thought in mind and in that way help insure its success.

    GOING TO THE “MOVIES”: AN AMERICAN ENTERTAINMENT SKETCH. The early development of motion pictures as commercial entertainment evolved around the beginning of the 20th Century with the development of motion picture cameras using 35 mm celluloid film coated with light sensitive silver nitrate emulsion which produced black and white [gray scale] images. A rapidly evolving entertainment industry arose largely in Hollywood, California where numerous studios were incorporated [e.g., Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, 20th Century Fox, Paramount, RKO, Columbia, Universal- International, et al]. Similarly, iconic Movie Stars were made famous along with the renowned screen- writers, directors and producers contributing memorable [and some not-so-memorable] works. Going to the movies became a national entertainment pastime even during the world war one and two eras and the Great Depression of the early 20th Century. TALKING PICTURES [a.k.a. “TALKIES”] EMERGE WITH AL JOLSON IN THE JAZZ SINGER IN 1927 Early technology produced many “silent” films [no recorded sound tracks] where captions were used to capture some of the actor’s dialogue or to explain the scene in abbreviated form. Often Theatres showing silent films would have live narrators and musicians such as organists or pianists that would play appropriate music to accompany the film. Some even traveled from theatre to theatre to provide music and narration for various films. Early sound recording efforts included recording dialogue and music on a phonograph record and then attempting to synchronize the recording with the film projector through a system of belts which proved unreliable. Vitaphone developed a 16-inch phonograph disc played at 33 1/3 rpm that was successfully linked to a projector which was used to produce the first “Talkie” film, The Jazz Singer in 1927.

  • Changing Attitudes Toward War and Women in Twentieth Century Film
    Changing Attitudes Toward War and Women in Twentieth Century Film Mary Ann T. Natunewicz INTRODUCTION This unit has been written for use in two eleventh grade United States History courses. One course covers the period from 1865 to the present, while the second course, an Advanced Placement program, begins at the period of colonization. This unit will be used over a semester in sections that deal with World Wars I and II, the Korean Conflict, the Vietnam War, and the Gulf War. Most of the curriculum here could also be adapted for ninth grade courses. Each section of the lesson plans is designed for one or two 45- minute periods. The school in which this will be taught is an urban high school with 2500 students, a significant number of whom are refugees who have had first hand experience with war. Students who are still learning English will find films that use dialects and non-standard English especially challenging. PURPOSE AND OBJECTIVES OF UNIT It is the purpose of this unit to show students that war films do more than tell stories and provide catharses for viewers. Each film also conveys the social values and the mores of the period in which it was produced and addresses attitudes not only toward war, but also toward topics closely associated with war, such as the morality of fighting, the causes for which it is moral and just to fight, the definition of heroism and the responsibility of the individual to exhibit ethical behavior. Frequently, the causes worth fighting for are such things as political systems, home and family.

  • The First Radios Were Introduced in the Intermountain Region and Used By
    The first radios were introduced in the Intermountain Region and used by the Forest Service in about 1928 or 1929*, and required a pack outfit to haul them in plus tools and equipment to set them up. They were a great aid to Forest Service men. 1/ The first two-way radios were used about 1937 or 1938 for communication between fire camps and the Supervisor's Of- fice in Jackson. 2/ Voice communication via a system of radio repeater stations, was established in 1964 on the Teton National Forest. With the completion of a radio repeater station constructed on Hawk's Rest Mountain in the Teton Wilderness Area radio con- tact was now possible to practically any area in the back country of the Wilderness area. Other stations located at Phillips Ridge, Rosie's Ridge, Monument Ridge, Oil Well Ridge and Huckleberry Mountain enable radio communications over practically the entire Teton National Forest. The system also includes radio transmitters and receivers at all Ranger Stations and Guard Stations, along with mobile radio units in some of the Forest Service vehicles and several hand portable radios. 3/ The repeater stations pick up radio signals, amplify them and then rebroadcast the signal. This allows a radio signal which is broadcast from any location of the Forest to be heard anywhere else on the Forest. 4/ The radio network was established to provide quick and adequate communications between District Rangers, field men, and the Supervisor's office. It is also used in times of emergency such as coordinating the search efforts for lost persons, avalanche rescues, fire and civil defense.
