KANM benefit concert to be today
By CASEY RAMSEY
Reporter
KANM, Texas A&rM Univer
sity’s student-operated radio
station, will have a benefit con
cert today at Dr. G’s, a local res
taurant and night club.
The concert will feature five
local bands: “Ellen Rooney’s
Flesh Vendors,” “The Yard-
boys,” “Four Hams on Rye,”
“Lyrical Cohesion” and “Uncle
Fester.” Proceeds from the
$3.50 cover charge will go to
KANM, 99.9 FM cable.
Station manager Colin
Landis said this is the first time
the station has tried to raise
money this way. Currently,
KANM relies on commercials,
semester dues from disc jockeys
and donations from former
members of the station for fi
nancial support. The station
also received $80 from the Me
morial Student Center
Bookstore Fund. Next year.
Landis said, KANM hopes to
receive $1,000 from the fund.
KANM was started in the fall
1973 as an all-volunteer student
radio station to provide alterna
tive music for Texas A&M stu
dents.
“We want to play stuff that
you don’t hear everyday on the
radio,” Landis said. “If we
played the same things every
one else was playing, there
would be no reason to listen to
About 45 disc jockeys and 25
alternates work for the station
which is on the air 24 hours a
day and plays a free format of
jazz, hard-rock, punk and new
wave.
“We don’t tell the DJ’s what
to play but we do ask them to es
tablish some sort of program,”
Landis said.
Why do students sacrifice
their time to work at KANM for
no pay?
“It’s a form of expression for
me,” Nell Frazier, a senior from
Bryan, said.“I just like music
very much and enjoy being
around it.”
Landis said KANM is trying
to become more organized to
increase its credibility. For the
first time since the station be
gan, KANM has printed a pro
gram guide to let students know
when their favorite type of mu
sic is on the air. The station also
has a request line, 845-5923,
and concert line, 845-7596.

The MSC Council Monday
night heard a presentation on
increasing the university center
use fee from the present $10 a
semester to a $20 a semester by
Eric Conner, executive vice
president for administration.
The use fee, Conner said, is
35 percent of the center’s in
come and is used to maintain,
equip and operate the center.
To raise the ceiling on the
fee, a majority of students
would have to approve the in
crease at the next election at the
end of March, Conner said.
Conner said the fee increase
is needed for the center to
break even on operational costs.
The center operated at a deficit
of $ 121,000 last year, he said.
The fee has not been in
creased since the university cen
ter addition was built in 1973,
Joe Jordan, student body presi
dent, said.
The addition included the
gallery, the main lounge, the
post office, the student pro
grams office and the Board of
Regents’ wing, Conner said. He
also said the facility, designed
for 22,000 students, now serv
ices 36,000.
If the fee is not raised, the
costs of other center services
may increase, Conner said. The
cost of obtaining services from
the guest rooms, the theater
complex, meeting rooms and
the bookstore could be effected.
In other business, the council
heard a report from Caroline
Williams, chairman of All Night
Fair, on the success of the Feb. 4
event. The fair grossed over
$7,000, she said.
“We grossed more this year
than last year because we
doubled the price of admission
from 50 cents to $1,” Williams
said.
