Arena Has New Speaking System
From Stewart Mann Memorial Fund
Lucknow Arena has a new
speaking system through financial
support from the Stewart Mann
Memorial Fund, created by friends
following Stewart's death in a car
accident last spring.
Professional advice was sought
on the best system to 'serve the
arena: The new system was
purchased through Greer TV and
Electric in Lucknovii.
The existing four speakers were
lowered about nine feet and bear
the inscription "Stewart Mann
Memorial". A new amplifier and

FM receiver was purchased, giving
the arena a balanced system.
The FM receiver allows use of a
portable, cordless, sensitive micro-
phone for use at any point in the
arena. In addition, another mike
may be used from the penalty box
and or office. The system allows
the use of AM and FM radio.
The 'Mann Memorial Fund had
initially approved a trophy case for
the arena with a trophy to be
awarded annually to a leading
scorer. Two plaques in the case
will also recognize the association
of coaches, managers, etc. and the
fact that money from the fund
installed the new speaking system.
