‘The Old D.J.’
Parker Spins Discs, Perks
Coffee for Morning Show
The first sound heard by many
students every morning is the
Voice of the old D. J., Charlie
Parker as he spins records over
radio station WTAW on his own
disk Jockey show.
The electrical engineering major
says “I begin my Coffee Club pro
gram early at 6:45 a. m., so I
can wake everybody up including
the chickens.”
Well known to his some 8,000
listeners as “ the old D. J.”, Park
er lends a personal air to the
show by percolating coffee for
background atmosphere while
blowing smoke rings into the mic
rophone.
The program consists of “mood”
music by such orchestras as Fred
Waring for the first portion of
his 75 minute Coffee Club pro
gram. He then switches the style
to recent hit tunes.
“I am a big Billy May fan,”
Parker says: “High Noon” and
“Charmaine” are my favorites. I
haven’t heard a Billy May record
that I don’t like. I had the plea
sure of meeting and talking to
him back stage after a recent
concert he played at Guion Hall.
DISC JOCKEY—Charlie Parker spins a platter on his
morning program, “Coffee Club”, over WTAW. The pro
gram is heard Monday through Saturday from 6:45-8 a. m.

Parking Lots
(Continued from Page 1)
the committee said. Tickets will be
given to cars which continue to
park at the outside of entrances
into the dormitory three and five
parking lot.
The committee said many stu
dents did not know the procedure
required in using the car lots. If
the car is supposed to be parked
in the 3-4 lot and it is full, then
the cars ai'e supposed to be placed
in the dormitory 11 parking lot.
Should this be full, the committee
said, the cars can park on the
street behind Duncan Hall.
Regularly there are 464 cars
which park in these parking lots
and 184 others which are tempor
arily on the campus. Chief Hick
man said that there is parking
space for only 512 cars in these
lots.
Dormitories Open
Between Semesters
“In all probaSility, dormitories
will not be locked during the week
between terms,” said Harry Boyer,
director of the housing office.
Nothing definite has been de
cided about locking the dormitor
ies, Boyer said. He will announce
the decision next week.

Parker is paying his way
through A&M this year by work
ing at the radio station. In addi
tion to his own program, he an
nounces other daily features of
the station.
“I hope to pay the rest of my
way through A&M by working
during the summers with the Am
arillo radio stations,” Parker says.

firs^ entered high school. He has
worked during the summer time
as a radio repairman, and he
makes some of his own radio
equipment.
Parker was a Lt. Colonel in the
Amarillo High School ROTC. He
won the American Legion Medal
twice, once for the best sergeant

Parker is a member of Squadron

the American Institute of Electri
cal Engineers, and the Amarillo
A&M Club.
