Addition to Radio Time
Brings Program Shift
tntteen minutes of radio time
will be addgd to the University
KOAC schedule beginning next
week. The added time will mean the
shifting of one Thursday night pro
gram to Wednesday night, and the
lengthening of the Radio Work
shop series to a half hour perform
ance.
The first thirty-minute drama
will be presented this Thursday
night from 4:30 till 5. Titled “The
Ghost of Memorial Park," the dra
ma concerns a little man, disap
pointed with his role in the world,
who becomes convinced, by the aid
of “Christmas Carol” like appari
tions, that in their own way the
little people are important. Dick
Rayburn will play the role of
Merbert Perkins (the little man),
while Jim Blue and Terry Roseen
will do the ghosting. The play,
written by an undergraduate at the
University of Wisconsin, will be
directed by R. L. Montgomery, as
sociate professor of speech.
“Friends Around the World,”
the interview with foreign students
usually heard on Thursday, will
not be broadcast this week. In
stead it will be presented next
Wednesday at 6:30 following the
piano program of Mrs. Zonda
Montgomery. The interview will
be followed by the “Invitation to
Read” series featuring Dr. Alburey
Castell of the philosophy depart
ment.
Huts Linger
On Campus
Two Years
Quonset huts will remain on the
campus for at least two more
years, said I. I. Wright, physical
plant superintendent, today. By
then the new Science building, to
be built between the physical plant
and the men's pool, should be com
pleted.
All science and laboratory class
es now in other buildings will be
moved into it, leaving space in
Deady hall for the Math, English,
Sociology and other classes now
in quonsets.
Nine quonsets are on the campus
now. Almost half are located be
tween Oregon and Commerce halls.
Three are situated on the old cam
pus and are being used for labora
tory work; one houses the Emer
—aid; and the most recent one, built
in 1948, is used for ROTC equip
ment.
Work on the Science building
•was begun last April and is expec
ted to be complted by fall of 1951.
