New Programming for KUOK
The student operated campus radio, KUOK, begins a new year of broadcasting Monday.
Station manager Rosa Lind, Lawrence senior, announced that the station would begin regular broadcasting with an entirely new concept of programming to get the new broadcast year under way.
When asked to comment on this new programming concept Miss Lind said: "We are endeavoring to create a station image for KUOK that duplicates no other commercial station in this area. The slogan adopted by the station, I think, has captured this image . . . The New Sound For Young Moderns. This
new type of programming will bring into play the entire KUOK staff, from rewriting the news copy to rewriting commercials in order to get across the soft sell.
She said the over all picture to be presented by the station will be similar to the FM type of programming, but on AM radio. There will be two important differences, she said. "We will feature exclusive, and comprehensive coverage of campus news as well as national/international, and second, the coverage of sports from all angles. The emphasis that will be placed on news, and campus news in particular, is the result of an audience survey conducted last spring which showed us that the KU student wanted more news than what we were giving him."
KU's Largest Band Day To Feature 72 Bands
HIGH-STEPPING MAJORETTES, their batons twinkling arcs, will lead more than 4.000 daily plumed and bedecked bandsmen into town tomorrow as KU celebrates its biggest Band Day ever.
The 72 high school bands will tootle their way down Massachusetts Street tomorrow morning in a colorful parade. They will then play at the half-time ceremonies during the KU-Syracuse game.
AT THE GAME, THE BANDS will spell out "Band Day, KU — 1960" in brilliant array. Under the direction of Prof. Russell L. Wiley, director of the KU band, they will play "America the Beautiful." "The Orange Bowl March," and the Alma Mater.
The KU band will perform before the game but will not appear at half-time.
Bands participating are from the following high schools:
Shawnee Mission North; Shawnee Mission East; Field Kindley, Coffeyville; Olathe; Colby; Hiawatha; Iola; Osawatomie; Belleville; Parker; Lawrence, and Concordia;
Paola; Lyons; Independence Community College; Bonner Springs High School; Seaman High. Topeka; Osage City Rural High; Bennington; Marion; McPherson; Ruskin High School, Hickman Mills, Mo.; Emporia; Nortonville; Augusta, and Valley Falls.
The purpose of KUOK is to serve KU students with a well balanced programming concept which will fulfill the needs, and satisfy the individual tastes of the sophisticated college listener. Miss Lind said.
William Chrisman High, Independence, Mo.; Ellinwood; Sabetha; Council Grove; Rural High, Fairview; C.C.R.H.S., Columbus; Herington; Dickinson Co. Community H.S., Chapman; Riley County High School; Winchester; Washington High School, Bethel, and Holton.
Senior High, Leavenworth; Junior High, Leavenworth; Caney; Burlington; Turner; Baschior; Mulvane; Gardner; Rosedale, Kansas City; Blue Rapids; Atchison; Sedan; Lebo; Neodesha; De Soto, and Stockton.
Glasco; Yates Center; Hutchinson; Madison; Riverton; Haskett, Lawrence; Ottawa; Washington; Burlingame; Ward High, Kansas City; Alma; Fort Scott; Beloit; Horton; Wellington; Salina; Minneapolis, and Erie.
Miss Lind said that there will be a greater emphasis on the informative and educational aspects of programming. An effort will be made to balance the music program, but the trend will be toward the soft sound in listening.
The staff feels that with KUOK's new policy and the added emphasis on news, the station will have an increasing number of listeners who will grow to know and enjoy KUOK's "New Sound for Young Moderns," Miss Lind said.
