601d radio’ buff
collects programs
By JULIE KESSLER
of the UP staff
Have you ever met any
people who seemed as
though they were born at
the wrong time and
belonged in another era?
KVLU’s program director
Darrell Brogden fits the
bill.
In the overpowering day
of television, 25-year-old
Brogdon is somewhat of a
rarity. He owns ap-
proximately 600 hours of
radio programming with
dates ranging from the
early 1930s to the late 1960s.
Some of his tapes include
“The Shadow,” “Fibber
McGee and Molly,” “Our
Miss Brooks,” “The Jack
Benny Show,” “The Lone
Ranger,’’ and countless
other old time favorites.
Brogdon is allowing
KVLU to use over 40 hours
of his collection for the Oct.
27-29 broadcasting
marathon titled “KVLU
Salutes the Golden Days of
Radio.”
This particular theme
was chosen because it will
attract the greatest num-
ber of listeners, Brogdon
said. “Those who have
heard them before will be
reminded of the past and
others will hear them for
the first time and realize
that they really do exist.”
Brogdon started his
collection seriously in 1974
and 1975. He acquires his
tapes through a network of
collectors across the coun-
try. Tapes can be bought
and sold in addition to
being simply borrowed or
copied. He said that there
is a great deal of trading
among collectors.
“The reason why I am so
interested in radio is
because television is so
lousy. I feel there will be an
upswing toward radio in
the next 9 or 10 years,
Brogden said.
Brogden said that in his
opinion, radio is a
fascinating hobby. He
thinks most people regard
old radio as “corny.”
For years CBS has
presented the “Mystery
Theatre” on radio and has
recently announced a new
program that will be hosted
by actor Vincent Price, ac-
cording to Brogdon.
Brogdon feels that a
“renaissance” of radio has
begun.

Beaumont
SVS, SWSA to hold
Volunteer Work Fair
in Setzer Center Arbor
A Volunteer Work Fair is
going to be held in the Ar-
bor Area of the Setzer
Student Center on Nov. 2
and 3.
The fair is sponsored by
the Social Works Student
Association, in coor-
dination with the Student
Volunteer Service. It will
last from 10:30 a.m. to 1
p.m. both days, according
to Cindy Kendall,
Beaumont senior.
Kendall, coordinator of
the SVS, and an SWSA
member, said that they are
expecting about 16 to 20
agencies to participate in
the fair.
Agencies such as the Bet-
ter Business Bureau, Bir-
thright, and various offices
of the Department of
Human Resources will be
on hand to explain what
kind of volunteer workers
they are interested in.
Posters, pamphlets, and
slide presentations will be
used by the various agen-
cies to show students the
types of work experience
available for volunteers,
Kendall said.
“It (SWSA) does a lot of
volunteer work in the com-
munity,” Kendall said.
“We do casework and learn
various interview skills.”
The SVS is financed by
the SSC and provides
students with help in get-
ting occupational volunteer
experience through com-
munity service.

witches’ brew stew with enchanted breads, roast leg
of yak with warlock’s cauldron, Transylvanian
