We've added the refinements you asked for. The inputs and outputs of the new B -flare transformerless, balanced. The elapsed time indicator is a real -time hours /minutes/ seconds L.E.D. display -tape accurate at all speeds. The built-in oscillator provides both 1kHz and 10kHz calibration tones. And we added a low frequency adjustment to the reproduce equalizers. Behind the clean, new look of the B -11 are the same features, performance and relia- bility you expect from our famous 5050B. We didn't change the rugged quarter-inch thick deckplate or the cast aluminum frame. We kept the switch selectable NAB /IEC equaliza- tion, +4dBm / -10dBv output levels, half-track and quarter -track playback heads and three standard reference fluxivity levels. And, of course, the B- II still features three tape speeds, XL type connectors, front panel record equalization and bias adjustments, vari- able speed, "dump edit" function, and an integral splicing block. The 5050B -Ilhas been engineered like no other tape machine in the world. When you check out the specifications you'll know why we say it's the best $5,000.00 tape recorder available for under $2,500.00. When you work with it, you'll know that we've just raised the industry standard. 17DE0U. ?ethnology you Can Touch.

  • THE HISTORY of SMU FOOTBALL 1910S on the Morning of Sept
    OUTLOOK PLAYERS COACHES OPPONENTS REVIEW RECORDS HISTORY MEDIA THE HISTORY OF SMU FOOTBALL 1910s On the morning of Sept. 14, 1915, coach Ray Morrison held his first practice, thus marking the birth of the SMU football program. Morrison came to the school in June of 1915 when he became the coach of the University’s football, basketball, baseball and track teams, as well as an instructor of mathematics. A former All-Southern quarterback at Vanderbilt, Morrison immediately installed the passing game at SMU. A local sportswriter nicknamed the team “the Parsons” because the squad was composed primarily of theology students. SMU was a member of the Texas Intercollegiate Athletic Association, which ruled that neither graduate nor transfer students were eligible to play. Therefore, the first SMU team consisted entirely of freshmen. The Mustangs played their first game Oct. 10, 1915, dropping a 43-0 decision to TCU in Fort Worth. SMU bounced back in its next game, its first at home, to defeat Hendrix College, 13-2. Morrison came to be known as “the father of the forward pass” because of his use of the passing game on first and second downs instead of as a last resort. • During the 1915 season, the Mustangs posted a record of 2-5 and scored just three touchdowns while giving up 131 Ownby Stadium was built in 1926 points. SMU recorded the first shutout in school history with a 7-0 victory over Dallas University that year. • SMU finished the 1916 season 0-8-2 and suffered its worst 1920s 1930s loss ever, a 146-3 drubbing by Rice.

  • 2014 Seattle National Student Electronic Media Convention
    National Student Electronic Media Convention Seattle, WA #CBISeattle October 23-25, 2014 OCTOBER 2014 Welcome to Seattle! On behalf of the College Broadcasters, Inc. (CBI) Board of Directors, I’d like to welcome you to Seattle for the National Student Electronic Media Convention (NSEMC), or CBI Seattle for short. CBI Seattle is America’s top convention dedicated exclusively to the interests of student radio stations, TV/video outlets, and webcasters. Whichever category—or categories—you fall into, we are confident that you will leave the convention with the skills and motivation to improve your student media outlet. In its third year, the NSEMC continues to grow. Among the improvements this year are an additional breakout room, giving you the choice of six sessions during most time slots; a pre-convention workshop—FCC 101, an intensive, three-hour pre-convention workshop hosted by a veteran adviser and a nationally-known attorney. That’s in addition to what’s made us so successful since our inception—high-quality sessions led by advisers and media professionals, student-led roundtables, and networking and social opportunities. I am pleased to announce that this year’s keynote address will be given by Seattle broadcast legend John Curley. During his 30-year radio and TV career, John has earned numerous accolades, including multiple local Emmy Awards and the Edward R. Murrow Award for Excellence in Journalism. John previously hosted KING 5 TV’s “Evening Magazine”—America’s highest-rated regionally produced TV show for fourteen years—and currently hosts “The Curley and Tom Morning Show” on KIRO 97.3 FM.

Sixteen of these stations are affiliated with the CBS Network, 18 with the UPN Network and one is independent.

  • Carmine Salvucci Beats the Odds, Looks to the Future
    VOL. 100, No. 7 PUBLISHED WEEKLY IN ALLSTON-BRIGHTON SINCE 1884 A PAID CIRCULATION NEWSPAPER FRIDAY February 15, 1985 35 CENTS real and present danger? By Joe Clements The unused ~IBTA trolley tracks that run along Washington Street through Brighton Center are a life­ threatening safety hazard, ac.cording to several local merchants and observers of the situation. Problems ranging from slippery rails during precipitation to asphalt breaking from the roadbed result in numerous accidents each month, they charge. "It's a dangerous thing in the sense of people's lives," Charles Kelly, owner of Kelly's Pharmacy in Brighton Center, said recently. "We've had cars come right up on the sidewalk. .We've been lucky so far-no one's been hit­ but we're going to have a serious acci· dent out there one of these days." "I am definitely concerned with the 1act that we have clilldren cr<•ssing the St,reet morning and afternoon and (the possibility of) some automobile going out of control by skidding on the tracks,'' Gerald McGrath, principal of the nearby Winship School, said Wednesday. "We've had concerned parents calling us about it. • Despite that, both 'T' officials and members of a group that wants to return the trolleys to the Brighton Center line said this week that they don't think the situation is as serious as some say it is.
