Much of Pinky’s time was spent

Hughes feels that many young
ipdn enter' college desiring to fql-
Iciv? a particular field, but actually
their abilities are such that they,
either “bust out,” or after gradua
tion never follow the line in
they have majored.
Hughes "alsri pointed out Ahat
much of the-nations potenti/l in
tellectual power is lost dueAtp the
inability of men to plage them-
selves • irr’the- right line/of study.
He said that <mly onqAhird of the
young people^ ivho enxep 1 the lower
schools ever eftter collefge', and only
one-third of those' who enter col
lege .ever graduate] 7 This means
that approximately one-ninth of
those who start out in school ever
reach the level of college graduate.
.Too many men apdP Ipst to the
nation because their best or real
abilities, are ngyer developed. This
nation, which is in the scientific
era, cannot afford to continue pas
ting its man-power in this mannerr
It is the object of this service to
try and place each student asking
for guidance in the right school of
study Hughes added. Many stu

abilities, but rf* oneMs interested

WTAW, owned and operated by
A&M, ranks arhong the top . col
lege radio stations of the nation.
An American Broadcasting Com
pany affiliate station opei*ating on
a 1,000 watt frequency, it is fully
equipped to Handle all phases of
radio, broadcastings as efficiently
as many larger and more well-
known stations. \ .
Although the policy of the
station is to carry the best of
the ABC daytime programs, sev
eral of its shows originate on
the campus. Two of these—“The
Texas Farm' and Home Review,”
Weekday
n Revic
in checking on himself the Apprai
sal Service has been established to
a weekday feature, and “The
| Farm .Review,” a Saturday pro
gram are carried throughput the

"Vork. | ■ >
IfriCaise you are a Victim
of the
currantjcraze for quiz shows, WT
AW has two programs that should
interest you. One of these, “Kam-
pus Kwiz,” goes to 1 Sbisa Hall
every weekday at 12:30 to find
its victims. Winners receive prizes
donated by) local sponsors. The
other, “Name the Sponsor,” is a
telephone quiz show.
Every Aggie, of course, will
be interested in the fact that all
daytime A&M games will be
broadcast over this Ideal station.
Complete coverage will also be
given to all “B” team games
played at Kyle Field, and if
possible, to those played away
from, home.
“Radio Workshop," a program of
radio dramas presented on WTAW
last semester, is another' future
project of the station. Talent for
parts in this program will be so
licited from local residents or stu
dents interested in this type of
work. If possible, WTAW plans to
work with the English Department
on this series and present original
radio dramas written by students
in the creative writing course.
All phases of the news, both
world and. national, are presented
at various .-times during the day.
“News of Aggieland” presented by
the Battalion, presents fifteen min-'’
rites of news for and about Aggies
at 7:30 every morning. An after
noon program, “The Sportsman,
gives complete coverage to news
of the sports world.
The work at WTAW is directed
by Frank J. Sosoljk who has bpen
with the station since it first went
on a full tim^ schedule in 1943.
Sosolik, who lives in Bryan, started
his career twenty years ago when
he subscribed foi* a correspondence
course in radio. After supplement
ing this start with work, at the
Tyler School of Radio and A&M,
he landed a job with KTRH in
Houston. From Houston he came
back to A&M to join the WTAW
stafL ) '
Foi- the past five years he has
b’ee$ a special electrical engineer
ing student and in that period of
time has completed every course
in radio offered at A&M. Sosolik
now holds the position of acting
manager and chief engineer.
WTAW’s program director,
5Jra. v Betty Jo Edwardson, is
probably better known around
these parts by her maiden name,
Betty Jo Cook, She attracted
coqsfderable/attention last year
as the star of the Aggie Players
