There are two comments by Earle Goodwin on alleged alterations to the pedalboard for lady organists. First, console #2 came with a standard Moller Pedalboard. Then it had an Audsley-Willis Pedalboard, which was kept and reused with Console #3. Then Jack Davis wanted a new standard Moller Pedalboard when he became the Organist. Finally, just before Reuter closed their plant, they supplied a new AGO pedalboard for Console #3.
Earle Goodwin on May 22nd, 2026:
West Point organ console...Slight adjustment to pedalboard lower 5 pedals to accommodate lady organists shorter legs. Perhaps after Fritz's passing it was corrected.
Earle Goodwin, pupil of JohnHarveyvey on May 22nd, 2026:
Missing information: regarding pedalboard : to accommodate lady organists ...lower E,D,C were designed by Fritz Meyer accommodate lady organists whose legs are not as long as men's legs.
