After all these years of attending performances in the old gymnasium, the privil ege of stepping into that spacious gymnasium was wond erful.

Experts say it is impossible to make a gymnasium with the acoustical advantages of an auditorium, but at least the disadvantage can be reduced by installation of a good speaker system. Probably $1000 would be sufficient to install a system that would ade quately carry the voices of speakers to all parts of the gymnasium If local residents do not feel that we should pay the cost of such an installation through taxation, perhaps the money could be raised through other means. In any event, the value of the gymnasium as a com munity center should not be permitted to remain at a low level because of lack of a speaker system The Gate Citv Journal ELAbS V.
