I remember they had record players like that in elementary school, but don't remember what models or makes they were. We used to have to square dance to square dance music during PE time. We also watched film projectors, (probably were 16mm), that had sound, and then the schools got some B&W RCA TVs on carts, which received UHF, so we could watch the one educational channel available at that time in Omaha. I guess I was jealous, those TVs could get a channel that I couldn't get at home. I also remember one time we were going to watch something on TV at school and the set wouldn't come on, and my teacher had no idea what to do, so I suggested she push the red button on the back (circuit breaker) and the set came on. I was either in 5th or 6th grade.
