WNDR Cruis in' Along
By Sue Brown
Progress means change and WNDR,
the Penn State Capitol Campus radio
station has, since its beginning pro
gressed.
Student radio began on campus in the
spring of 1969 with the introduction of a
five-watt transmitter. Two students put
together a transmitter using electronic
equipment partially funded by the Stu
dent Affairs Office, and equipment left
at the close of Omstead Air Force Base.
With the somewhat unimaginative
call letters WZAP, the station broadcast
a limited schedule of news, music, and a
talk show to an audience comprised of
two dormitories, Church and Wrisberg
Halls. By adding a second transmitter in
1969, the station was able to reach
Meade Heights.
WZAP played a major role in in
stituting changes on campus. Because of
publicity provided by the station, the
Capitol Campus Earth Day in 1970 was a
huge success. Later in that year, a
pedestrian's death created a furor and,
again, WZAP was instrumentll in
having a path built between the main
building and the dormitories.
WZAP came of age in the mid-70's. It
began with a change of name. The call

CM-RHO
Chi-Rho previously sponsored a pre
sentation on cults, featuring Father
McGuire, Dr. and Mrs. Dole and Joe
Flanagan. The turnout at this event was
successful, and on behalf of Chi-Rho, I
would like to thank everyone who shared
the evening with us.
Chi-Rho also co-sponsored with the
International Affairs Association in pre
senting Father Reymann's program on
his 30 years' experiences in Guatemala
and El Salvador.
On Saturday April 3, Chi-Rho, along
with Phi Beta Lamda of Capitol Campus
and Harrisburg Area Community Col
lege, will co-sponsor an Easter Egg hunt.
This event will take place either on the
- Lawn of the Governor's mansion on
second street in Harrisburg or at HACC,
and will benefit the retarded and handi
capped children. There will be TV and
other media coverage of this event.
MHBOG
The Meade Heights Board of
Governors has already started planning
the "Rites of Spring" for June 2-6. All
students, especially juniors, are invited
to attend our meetings in the Coffee
House, 946 A Kirtland Avenue. Our next
organizational meeting will be Sunday,
March 7 at 8 p.m..
MHBOG is also sponsoring a raffle
for prizes of $75, $5O and $25 worth of
albums or cash. The price is $l.OO a
chance. The winning tickets will be
drawn on Wednesday March 17, St.
Patricks Day, and the prize winners will

letters WZAP gave way to the more
professional sounding WNDR. (These
call letters were chosen to stand for
We're the new decade of Rock.)
Though WNDR still operates with a
power of five-watts, its broadcast area
has increased to include the cafeteria in
the main building.
Programming also has taken on a
more professional look, because of the
Program Director, Mark Clauser.
Bill Neil, the station news director,
said, "Mark Clauser has worked long and
hard to bring a professional image to the
station, and it shows."
Clauser, who is employed at radio
station WQVE'93, has contributed many
innovative ideas. "I'm trying to set this
station up the same way QV-93 is set up.
It looks like it will work," said Clauser.
One of the changes is that the music
programming will be very specific.
Tapes and records can be organized on
the basis of time clock segments. Certain
types of music will be played at certain
times of the day, such as new releases,
top-ten recordings, and old favorites.
This will allow a greater variety of music
during any given time period to appeal
to a wider audience.

Also, more emphasis will be placed
on personalities of radio performers. The
listeners should be able to identify with
the announcer and with his particular
style of broadcasting.
Darrwll Reider, a station d.j. said, "A
disc jockey must be able to do more than
play records and announce the time. He
must present himself as a personality
with a strong general knowledge of
broadcasting and be able to relate to his
listeners."
Dave Despres, the station manager,
is in agreement with Clauser's plans. His
responsibilities are to coordinate all
phases of station operation, including
budget allocations, equipment main
tenance, and repairs.
a new 100-watt transmitter which would
reach Middletown and the immediate
vicinity, is one of the plans Despres has
for the near future, "As soon as there is
time and money to get a FCC license." he
said.
Because of the constant change in
staff, implementation of new programs
can be difficult. 'however, it is the
opinion of the station management that
once a successful pattern has been
established and the reputation of the
