PASe Membership
LOS ANGELES-At a special meeting
of the officers and the Board of Directors of
the newly formed Phonograph Association
of Southern California held in the offices
of Director Jay Bullock on January 18th,
Aubrey Stemler was retained as Field Or·
ganizer in a new program designed to en·
list at least 90 per cent of the music opera·
tors in Southern California.
Stemler is an old timer in the music busi·
ness, having been associated with several
leading organizations in the jobbing and
distributing field. His acquaintance in-
cludes practically every music operator on
the Coast and P ASC feels particularly
happy in being able to obtain his services
COIN
in furtherance of their organization plans.

2 New Wire Recorders
CHICAGO-Highlighting a special meet-
ing of all Armour magnetic wire sound
recorder licensees in Chicago January 11th
was the first unveiling of two units de-
veloped by the Armour Research Founda-
tion of Illinois Institute of Technology
as a part of its service to licensees.
The first of the two models to be demon-
strated is a small, inexpensive recorder,
known as the Camras Transitional Model,
which is designed for installation in home
radio receiver sets. Built of standard parts,
it is believed that this recorder can be
produced in quantity at low manufacturing
cost. It occupies only about half the space
of a standard disk record·changer, being
6 inches by 12 inches, and features a
high-speed re-wind.
This unit is so desIgned that the large
take-up spool can be used as a turntsble
for a disk record if desired, in combination
with the magnetic recording and repro-
ducing feature. Operating at a wire speed
of two feet per second with· a hi'gh fidelity
response of up to about 7500 cps, this
model can provide up to an hour's continu-
ous recording without change of spool.
Another new development is a so-called
Demonstrator A, incorporatin g a high-
speed rewind and a fid elity equalling that
of the finest available electrical transcri p-
tions.
