KORP returns this week

“KORP, 107.5 FM in stereo.
Maintained, operated, and staffed
by the uniformed students of Texas
A&M University; that being the
Corps of Cadets.”
With these words radio station
KORP will return to the air waves of
the Bryan and College Station area
early this week.
This station’s unique feature is its
all volunteer staff made up of mem
bers of the Corps of Cadets. The sta
tion is run by the KORP Radio
Committee which consists of ap
proximately 30 part-time disc joc
keys headed by station manager
Charles Knight, program director
Robert Swanson, and music director
Robert White.
KORP is a non-commercial,
non-profit station specializing in
public service announcements for
Bryan, College Station, and Texas
A&M University. KORP’s listening
audience is restricted to businesses
and residences that subscribe to
Midwest Video Corporation’s FM
stereo cable service.
“It’s pretty hard to get it in the car
unless you use a 90-mile long cord,
says Swanson.
Being broadcast by cable only,
KORP is not required to meet the
Federal Communication Commis
sion’s regulations concerning open-
air broadcasts. For example, only
th ree of the station’s disc jockeys are
federally licensed broadcasters.
Also, the language used by the disc
jockeys is less restricted than that
used on open air.
“In other words, you can cuss all
day long,” Swanson says, “Espe
cially on Friday and Saturday nights
when no one knows what’s going
on.”
The use of offensive language is
discouraged by the KORP staff, hut
occasional slip-ups do not have to be
reported to the FCC.
The committee emphasizes that
KORP is not “just for the Corps.”
Swanson says at least one-third of
the request line call-ins are from
Bryan. The programming, which

Lady
Wranglers
111 Boyett St. (Next to Campus Theatre)
runs from 7:30 to midnight Sunday
through Thursday and 8 p.m. to 1
a.m. on Fridays and Saturdays,
spans a wide range of interests. The
format is listed as “adult contempor
ary,” which confuses many people.
“When people hear ‘adult con
temporary they think of the music
in the dentist’s office or that stuff
you hear in Skaggs on Sunday
mornings, Swanson says.
“I ask them ‘Do you like Olivia
Newton-John? Do you like the Bee
Gees? That’s adult contemporary ,”
says Knight.
This semester’s format is ex
pected to show little changed from
that of last fall. Sunday night is de
voted to progressive country and
Monday and Tuesday will center on
soft rock. Wednesday is the zany
Monk-Moore Show which, Knight
says increased the station’s listening
audience last semester. The one-
hour show, which features Scott
Patton and John Moore as hosts, is a
satire on the Corps complete with
interviews with non-existent mili
tary personnel and a recommended
“uniform of the day” for campus
co-eds.
Thursday night is modern Chris
tian music with Kent Cunningham.
Friday and Saturday nights are what
the committee jokingly refers to as
“Pray and Hope It Comes Out All
Right nights. The scheduled Fri
day and Saturday disc jockeys
change from week to week and, al
most, from hour to hour.
“Who knows,” says Swanson,
“you might hear Johnny Paycheck
and Deep Purple back to hack on
the weekends.
KORP’s programs are broadcast

Glove Story
I’ve always been a very sensitive
person. I take everything very per
sonal and get my “feelings’ walked
on alot. This nature caused me as a
child to talk to God often. I can
never remember not believing in
Him. I did entertain some doubts
but those came later on in my life.
Anyway, I was always soft-hearted
or big-hearted or whatever you call
it. As I grew up I got hardened by
the influence of my friends. In
Junior High I hung around with a
couple of girls that were really rude
to their parents and they made fun
of everybody and each other all the
time. Unconsciously I began to fol
low them. My parents said I
changed drastically — from the
sweet, shy little girl to a rude kid
that didn t care for anyone’s feelings
hut my own.
In High School I finally got the
chance to do the different things I
had desired to do in Junior High.
Everyone considered me the nice,
sweet type in other words —
square, “not cool. With this repu
tation I jumped at the chance to try
marijuana and get into the con
cert/partying realm. By the time I
went to college I decided to utterly
rebel. My parents were so protec
tive and I felt that they were wrong
in trying to impose their morals,
standards, and way of life on me. I
also felt that they had messed me up
by giving me all those “rights and
wrongs”, for when I did things that I
know they would say was wrong,
something inside of me disagreed
also. I tried to suppress that some
thing and shut it up by going fur
ther. But, no matter what I did, it
stayed there — like a quiet little
hum in the background — I hated it!
Everytime I wanted to have a good
time, there it was spoiling every
thing.
It seemed like there was a drive
within me to do things — anything,
everything. I was really curious to
see what life was all about. The way
I figured it, it was about having fun
— somehow enjoying yourself. So
that’s what I tried to do. I knew a
mundane type of life wasn’t going to
make it. You know — 8 to 5 job,
settle down, have kids, get old, etc.
So I tried exciting things. First of
all, of course, I decided to get liber
ated. So I went to hear Bella Abzug
and took karate and judo lessons and
spoke like, what’s the expression —
a “drunk sailor ”? Then, I was a bar
tender, rode a train through
Mexico, was a Girl Scout (to make it
exciting we smoked pot on the
campouts), decided to become a
merchant marine, changed my mind
and stuck as a sculpture major. In
my classes I built the most wild and
way out sculptures and made quite
good grades. I dove into the
philosophies and lifestyle of the “art
scene. I knew living in a dormitqry
was not where it was at, so I moved
to several different kinds of living
situations, finally attaining the
height — the neatest thing to do -—
I rented a ratty, roachy old house in
the Montrose section of Houston —
one block from the Fourth Ward. I
went to every concert that came to
town — front row tickets, did every
drug that I got my hands on,
climbed onto the roof of the Hyatt
Regency (thirty something stories
high!) and got high, dressed as wild
as I could and wrote poems. I did
everything I could think of and al
most anything other people thought
of but I felt like I was on a circular
stairway going nowhere. Every con
cert I went to I couldn’t wait til the
next song, at every party I was
lonely, every date was a disap
pointment, every art class, every
dream, every plan, every conserva
tion, every desire I had was empty
and vain. What was I looking for?
What drove me on? Why didn’t I
care about anything and yet, why
did I care?
It’s a crazy thing — the way I felt,
I mean, I cared just so much but
then it didn’t matter anymore. I
mean, well, it’s like I wanted to give
myself whole-heartedly to one of
those careers or ways of life or to
one of those people, but I just
couldn’t do it. You know I’d find
something or someone and get ex
cited about it and start getting into
it, but the more I learned about it or
got into it — when I saw what it
really was, I was always let down
and disappointed. Not one thing
ever met up to my expectations. It
seemed like my bubble got busted
every time. You know it even went
so far as this: I dated a couple of
guys for a long time and they both
asked me to marry them, but you
know, both times I just couldn’t
ever say that I even loved them. I
didn’t understand why. They were
real neat guys but why didn’t I feel
anything? And even, later I met this
guy and we dated for a while and I
realized that this was him. This was
the guy that I wanted to spend the
rest of my life with . . . but still,
STILL there was something that
wasn’t right. Something was lack
ing. I really didn t feel like I was
normal. It never even occurred to
me that someone else might feel the
same way. In every movie I’d ever
seen and book I d ever read, nobody
was like me.
Then, when I was a sophomore in
college something strange hap
pened. After the winter break I
came hack to school and all my
friends were talking about Tom.
They said he got back from Califor
nia and he had freaked out. He
didn t smoke or drink or anything
and he carried a Bible around
everywhere he went (they slightly
exaggerated). I just had to check it
out. Frankly, I was very curious and
of course, interested in what had
happened to him. I mean, anything
that would get everybody so riled
up interested me for sure. I was al
ways sort of interested in God, any
way. And besides all that, Tom was
my boyfriend. When I saw him, 1
asked him what had happened and
was he O.K. and all that. Everybody
was worried about him.
You know, I don’t remember
what words he said or anything. All
I remember is that he was different.
I didn’t know what it was exactly ex
cept that he told me he was.a Chris
tian and he believed in Jesus. He
also read the Bible alot. So, I didn’t
understand it because, I mean, I be
lieved in Jesus too. Doesn’t that
mean that you recognize that He
was a real man that lived on the
earth 2000 years ago? And what’s all
the excitement about being a Chris
tian? I mean, I was raised in th*
USA a country founded on religious
freedom. We even have IN GOD
WE TRUST on our money. And
more than that I went to Church
and Sunday School for years and
prayed to God alot of times. And I
never would want to hurt anybody
— or never steal. I thought I’d been
a Christian as long as I could re
member.
Even though I said all that to him
(and to myself), I wasn’t thoroughly
convinced that I was coming from
the same place he was. So, I started
reading the Bible (it sure was hard
to understand, I thought). That’s all
I knew to do. I must of started over
at Genesis 1 a jillion times; then a
few months later, something hap
pened to me. I don’t know what
prompted it or where it came from.
For about two days, everytime I was
alone I cried. It seems like I was just
crying out to the Lord, and finally I
even prayed. I don t remember the
words, but I do know that I had a
real repentance. I asked him to for
give me for all past. I had the feeling
that “sin as I had thought it to
mean — doing something “wrong”
— wasn’t that so much as it was
something that somehow hurt God,
and kept me from Him — and Him
from me. Anyway, I also remember
that I gave Him my life. I didn’t
really realize what that meant
