THE STOPTAB

THE OFFICIAL NEWSLETTER OF THE 

CENTRAL OHIO THEATRE ORGAN SOCIETY

April 2001                                    John Burns, Editor (burnsjr@prodigy.net)

Chapter Meeting – Sunday, April 1

The April COTOS Chapter meeting will be held at Thomas Worthington High School. This will be a joint meeting with the new Heart of Ohio Chapter (HOCATOS). The meeting will begin at 2:00 PM. The earlier than usual time has been selected so that we can be finished in time for the 4pm concert at the First Congregational Church. Many people have expressed a desire to attend this concert by Dene Barnard.

At press time we believe that Stan Krider will be presenting the musical program. Of course, we will be having open console following the prepared program. As usual,

refreshments, snacks, deserts, and other dishes are encouraged. We will have directions available to the First Congregational Church. Admission is free, donations accepted.

The March meeting was at radio station WEEC in Springfield, OH. Your editor was a bit late in arriving, but the turnout was good, and we were treated to music by several performers, both on the Chapter's Conn 650, and the station's resident Hammond A-100 series, augmented with Leslies. Well worth the trip. The museum trip didn't materialize, but will be a possibility for some time or meeting in the future.

Wurlitzer Update

It has been reported (on fairly good authority this time) that the heating/cooling and humidity control units in both chambers have been fully connected and are functioning. As noted previously, this should provide much needed stability in the chamber environment. Among other things, it will make tuning easier, and allow the instrument to maintain good tuning for longer periods of time.
