This should be a very popular program since all announcements are free. . * . Lawrence Hullett, music direc tor at WUSC, is doing quite well with the headache, of buying rec ords. He 'has t,hg job of buying records weekly and also building up our LP library. Call in your requests; that is the only way he can tell your likes and dislikes. * * * "Spotlight on a Band" is jump ing this year. Bill Rasp has fea tured Duke Ellington, Harry James, Charlie Barnet, Woody Herman and Sarah Vaughan. Lined up for the future are Anita O'Day, Boyd Raeburn, Gene Krupa, Dizzie Gillespie, Stan Kenton, and Les Brown. Be sure to hear these 7:45 Monday-Wednesday, 640 on your dial. * * * The girls still adore Dick Dun can's show. They say that they get "butterflies" from his sex, appealing whispers. The program is "Serenade in Blue," with theme song by Dave Rose. ** * Duke Werner's show "Sunset Serenade," bears medtiWning since he does very well with it Monday, Wednesday and Friday, at 7:00 p. mn. * * * if you like .o wake up to music, we have a program from 7 until 8:50 a. m. every morning. For you late stayer-uppers on Saturday night, hear our show from mid night until 3 a. m. We always have a large studio audience.

A fte r receiving something free ...few are willing to pay any thing in return. While we couldn't choose- our ancestors . . . it's very likely they wouldn't have chosen us either.

C.-(I.P.)-College students learn more about gram mar and diction from public speak ing than they do from elementary freshman English, according to tests reported by a North Caro lina State college staff member. ILouis Hall Swain, assistant pro fessor of speech in the department of English, p)ublished the test re suilts in a recent issue of the Quarterly Journal of Speech. Data obtained from tests and re-tests of 98 students showed that 7$ per cent gained more in gram mar andl diction from a p)ublic speakinug course, set upI to "ig mne" elementary grammar and diction, than frong their first qutarteri English course, wvhich wvas dlesigned to cover that field. On the basis of the test results, Professor Swvai n recommended that "colle'ges (desiring to teach or re teach the recognition of errors in written usage should cons.ider sub stituting a term in p)ublic sp)eaking in p)lace of the conventional first ternm in freshman English" and that "English departments dlesir ing to stress truIly functional grammar andl diction should in clude (enough units of oral com position to make LIp at least one third of the daily schedulle for freshman English."

Major oimpSOn Tells IRC of Iran At Recent Meeting Major Harry K. Thompson of 1'ort .Jackson was the guest speaker at the International Re lations club meeting last week. Major Thompson talked on the people and culture of Iran. Dur ing the discussion he showed mo tion pictures of Moslems he had taken while in Iran. The films were taken secretly because the photographing of Moslems is for bidden. Major Thompson spent three years in Iran with a United States military mission. During that time he frequently discarded his uniform and lived with various Iranian tribes. Besides learning their language, he learned about their culture, business, and com merce. Major Thompson brought out that if we are to reach the Iran ians with progressive educational ideas it must be done through the young people. People above 40 years of age are thought of as old and settled in their ways. Much Bible history is taken from Iran and Persia and in many ways these landls haven't changed since those ancient times, Major Thomnpson~ said.
