Another popular request show on ie station's schedule and today's otlight program is "Stewart's all," announced by a Stewart anied Nancy. There are few omen who have the talent to do ,i announcer's job, but Nancy de es this belief. She has an appeal g voice for a show of this type id through her personality draws many requests every Tuesday id Thursday at 7:30 p. mi. Most stations have a certain way signing off, some with "The :ar-Spangled Banner" and others ith "Dixie," which, down South xre, is considered to be the nia onal anthem; but WUSC thinks it is one that is unique.
