“You know,” said Munroe after

"Why!’ I asked, like a fool.

Gets New Recorder
The most modern ^stra-Soiiic,
magnetic tape recorder available
1 was added to the equipbient of the
Journalism Department! during the
past summer, according to Donald
D. Burchard, department head.
A speech may be edited or in
sertions added with nothing more
complicated than a -pair of scissors
and a roll of Scotch ; t*pej Bur
chard said. I . IT 1 j :
An economy feature! is the eras
ure device which ; perjmits innum
erable recordings to be made on
