I say this tongue some what in cheek, but I think I was one of the last college officials to switch from the Fox 40 Mini to the Regular Fox 40.
The Fox 40 Mini was the same approximate size as the old Acme Thunderer. And for our "young grasshoppers" out there, the Acme Thunderer was a black plastic whistle with a wooden pea in it. And I could blast it as loud as a Regular Fox 40. When everybody was making the change from the Thunderer to the Fox 40 I changed to the Mini Fox because it was the same size as the Thunderer. So much for a trip down memory lane.
