Library Very Important in College,

WMAJ Airs 'Groovology 54'
By THOM SHIELS
At one time or another almost
every Penn State student has lis
tened to "Groovology 54" a local
radio show which originates from
station WIVIAJ.
From the show's opening theme,
:Curtain Time," to it's closing
' 'Land of Dreams" WMAJ's doors
are usually open to visitors. The
'control rorim from where the show
originates is well at the rear of
the station, behind several offices
and an auxiliary studio.
The show begins at 10 p.m. and
lasts until 1 p. m., during which
'time an average of 45 records are
! played. Sports. news, and weather
'are also included at regular inter
vals.
Ballads Liked Most

as the "Old Professor," popular,R&R hit soon dies—and when it

enthusiasts are more numerous
than those who favor modern
or progressive jazz.
In a survey concerning Rock
and Roll, Fishbein, a former stu
dent at the University, found that
more students seem to like it than
don't, possibly because they are
more fanatic. One rabid fan sent
in six votes for R&R addressed to
former "Old Professor," Dan
Grove.

Fishbein admits the R&R en

but says "Rock and Roll is del

Clinic

ulation before a mirror is an
easily accomplished method of
studying correct mouth and
tongue movements.
In group therapy, sometimes
? prescribed for particular dis
orders, special social functions
such as parties and dances are
planned to help the handicapped
develop confidence in his newly
developed skills.
The University clinic has a staff
of three full-time members and
two part-time members. Dorsey
said that in addition to these,
the clinic employs about fifteen
graduate students , engaged in
conducting speech therapy.
He said the clinic has "en
joyed a great deal of success"
in rehabilitating persons with
speech disorders and has con
tributed much to the field in the
line of research. This research has
proved that early recognition and
treatment of disorders improves
the possibility of a cure, but, he
said, "all disorders can be treated
with some degree of success if
the client desires to avail himself
of the opportunity of corrective
,therapy where it is presented.'
Men are born with two eyes,
but with one tongue, in order that
they might see twice as much as
they say.
Aside from the Rock and Roll
fanatics, Fishbein's heada ch e s
stem from sports enthusiasts who
constantly phone in for sports re
sults immediately after he has an
nounced them. Many times people
ask for scores before the game
even starts.
Student announcers preceding
Fishbein have been Dan Grove,
Roger Clinton, and George Kahl.
Oddly enough, most have not•gone
into radio., after leaving WMAJ.
Fishbein intends to stay on at
WMAJ "until Rock and Roll is
successfully conquered"—or the
