Ex-Veep Barkley Going on Air
_:_by Don Collin
With the new administration
(c haracterized as the “Big' Deal"
. by the disgruntled) bringing in
uew faces, there is a lot of Demo
cratic material bobbing around,
some of. which shows up on ra
. dio this week.
Alben Barkley's new show
1 ‘Meet the Veep” begins this
Sunday on KTTGN at 3:15 p.m.
Format will be the question-an
ewer style. . . Adlai Stevenson
on KERG 6:30 p.m. Saturday re
r-iinding the Demos of Jefferson
• and Jackson.
- Another political show be
ginning Sunday on KUGN at
' 0:30 p.m. is Lawson McCall's
review of the legislature—“Sa
Tem Agenda” . . . Meet the
i Press moved to Monday at
6:30 p.m.
A show that has shown some
' political consciousness of late is
.ABC's (KEXj "Mr. President.”
Shortly before Ike's inauguration
il portrayed a president faced
v. ith a leader who thought him
gc-lf the political standard bear
er of the country. Last night, Mr.
President had trouble finding a
general to prosecute a war. The
- problems of Ike-Taft and Tru
) :an-MacArthur have plagued
other presidents.
After the all-campus Senior
Ball had been determined to be
r. 'Heart Attack" a student sug
gested it ought to have been giv
■ e.* the theme "Infantile Pa
ralysis."
A featured presentation of
KWAX Tuesday nights at 6:15
is “Surprise Package,” wrap
pod up iiiul deliverd by Ann
Moyes, A1 Bar/.man, Jim Blue
anil any other characters
dragged off the (|iiail. They sit
down at 8:80 Tuesday aftcr
nuo and an hour after the ques
tion “Who’s got any ideas?"
lias been thrown out, first re
hearsal (and incidentally the
broadcast) is taped for the eve
ning playback. It's an extemp
show that provides enough sur
prises to the performers as
well as tiie audience to make
an interesting quarter hour of
listening.
If you want to hear “Surprise
Package" and haven’t got an KM
radio but have an old TV set
around just switch to channel 0 *
Situation is caused by an over
lap of FM and TV frequencies.
Dad’s Day committee was go
ing to suggest the headline “Stu
dents Have More Fathers” for
the story about the high atten
dance last weekend. Maybe that
explains the chant about the!
shortage of fathers among ref- j
erees.
Jack Benny visits Crosby al
G:30 on KKRG. . . Korea’s
president is interviewed to
night at 10:15 on G.
If you want to hear a comedy
satire on light opera that really
gives it a new twist give an ear
to KUGN’s “Reuben, Reuben"
Saturday at 5:30 p.m.
NBC (KUGN) begins a new
hour-long documentary series on
penitentiaries called “Your Chal- j
lenge" this Sunday at 5:30 p.m.
Notes to the Editor
.* On the evening- of the 5th of
February, while I was in the in
i' rmary, I was asked a very
rnique question. It was, “What
1 do you think of student govern
ment?" I made a statement
, , which was published in the Feb
ruary 6th Emerald. Since then
I have found that my statement
, r as interpreted in several dif
ferent ways. The exact way that
I meant it did not seem to be
ore of them.
1 Through a misunderstanding
. > by the reporter, my exact words
were not quoted, although they
were very close.
1 I definitely believed that the
-• freshmen needed some help in
j bringing to the public eye stu
; dents worthy of nomination.
. Whether or not it has been done
as effectively as possible in the
past by fraternities and inde
pendent groups had nothing to
do with my statement.
I merely meant to say that I
- • did not approve of a group, any
, group, which would state that it
was not a political party but put
out posters stating their ideas,
. principles, or what ever one
( wishes to call them, which made
itself seem like a political party.
' The only' difference between a
political party and non-political
council is often in the name. And j
as far as I know, the council
did nothing underhanded. Maybe
the idea can be developed into a
very helpful plan. Since it was
new and different there was
bound to be some “mud-sling
ing,’' although I was never inter
ested in having any part of it.

things outside the infirmary,

In reading your article about
“Webfoot Students Hail From
Many Countries,” I notice that
you made no mention of the
many students that represent
Hawaii. You acknowledge 38 sep
arate countries and 37 states, yet
there was nothing said of Ha
waii, a prospective 49th state.
You might be interested to know
that there are about 70 students
from Hawaii. This certainly ex
ceeds the number of students'
from any of the foreign coun
tries.
