Device Aids Electric
Orqon to Make Use
OfIts Own Echo

CHICAGO.-A device no larger
than a golf bag. which makes il
possible for the electric organ to
create and utilize its own echo,
provides a modern substitute for
the reverberation provided by the
stone walls and high vaulted CELL
ings Of large cathedrals.
Official name Of the unique de-
vice is the Hammond reverbera-
ton control. And its sole function.
according to engineers, is produc-
ton Of the echoes which alone as
sure full organ performance.
Explaining the use Of reverbera-
ton control, organ experts point
out that echo is present in varying
degree in all music and in most
sound, being that part Of sound
which reaches the listeners ear by
reflection from neighboring sur
faces, rather than by straight air
line. Because early churches main
ly were large and solidly con-
structed, most people naturally
learned to prefer organ music with
considerable echo. they add.
Need of the echo-maker became
acute when some churches built
their acoustics especially for speech
"a situation that is not the best for
musical reception. It also provides
the only way in which real organ
music a be secured out-of-doors,
since the absence of walls would
otherwise NEAR the absence of re-
verberation and even the largest
organ would sound thin and shrill.
The reverberation unit takes the
place OF natures own echo by pick
ing up a part Of each tone signal
from the organ console and carry
ing it through a mechanism that
delays each sound. The delayed sig
nails are amplified and sent on to |
join the original unaltered electrical |
impulses or signals.
What the ear then hears is the
original music as played by the
organist followed quickly by its
or reverberation, just as in
a building part Of the music reaches
the listener directly and part Of it
is reflected from walls and ceiling
and reaches the ear later than the
original music.
The length Of the reverberation
time is also controlled by the unit,
his being an important factor in
producing a notwithstanding echo.
some churches have a reverbera-
10 as low as three seconds and
'ther large churches run up to IL
seconds.

Job placements, Moore reports,

Salaries range from $225 to $3.50 a

Each year Moore conducts a
career clinic at Columbia. For
eight weeks college students hear
leading industrial, management,
personnel and professional figures
get down to cases in advising which
job to seek, what to study to pre-.
pare for a career, where to look
for a job and how to get a job.
These clinics have proved so
successful, says Moore, he has
written a book, How to Blueprint
Your Success" which probably
will be the basis Of a credit purse
he plans to offer at Columbia. Only
one other university in the country
-Indiana-offers such a course for
credit.
Should Study Aims
Here's what Moore tells the boys
In his career clinics: Ask yourself:
''What am I? What do I want?
Where do I fit?"
Most people fail in a job, he says,
not for lack Of skill, but for failure
to possess such personal qualities
as the ability to express oneself
orally and in writing; ability to get
along with people; patience in at
tanning job goals; perseverance;
alert minds, not necessarily Phi

willing to get by; proper attitudes
and mobility.
