<i>Shortly before the war broke out, the yeshiva administration brought a television set into the building, placing it atop the staircase that led from the entrance to the beis midrash.</i>
I asked two talmidim who were learning Torah Vodaas at that time. Neither remembered the Yeshiva administration bringing a television into the building and placing it above the staircase leading into the BM.(One suggested that perhaps a worker in the offices near the steps to the BM had one but he didn’t remember that either)
