A lack of college graduates is

Technical fields and those of-
ring "glamorous" positions, such
electronics, will have the least
ificulty in employing sufficient-
trained personnel.
Smaller companies and pursuits

,ilroads will suffer the most, due
> lack of interest on the part of
ie students, Fortune claims.
The ideal graduate, according to
any businessmen, should have
rsonal initiative combined with
le ability to adapt himself to a
oup. This personality is often
eferred over the student who

As a possible solution to the
roblem, Fortune suggests that
lere be a greater concentration
. starting young men who would

"The preceding program originated in the South Quad studios.
"This is WCBN, the Campus Broadcasting Network, the listening
habit of more than 4,000 University students. The correct Eastern
Standard Time is . ..."
The disc jockey flipped a couple of switches and sat back in his
chair. He had just finished another daily, hour-long program of
recorded music and "platter chatter."
Every day, seven days a week, 124 hours a week, the three WCBN
stations, one in each of the three quadrangles, carry on a full schedule
of broadcasting from the old-standby disc jockey programs to news-
casts, dramatic presentations, and the college-humor type shows.
Each of the quadrangles has its own station; the three stations
form the WCBN network, and add the quad initials to the call letters
of the station, thus: WCBN-WQ,
WCBN-SQ and WCBN-EQ.
Although the individual station
is supported by the quadrangle in
which it operates, any student is
eligible to participate in the radio
activities.
At present, programming is re-
ceived in the three quadranglesarl ym.
and partially by the dorms on the
hill. Some persons living in other
housing units, however, have re-
ported receiving some of the
WCBN broadcasting at various
times.
Each of the WCBN studios is
organized with two elected officers
heading the. staff - the station
manager and the program director.
Other minor appointed staff of-
ficials include the head announcer,
the production manager, the chief
technician, the business manager
and the chief engineer.
Each of the studios has its own
record library, although many of
the record programs depend on the
loan of records from generous
quadrangle residents. DECORATED DOOR -This

THE BROADCAST-Aside from the disc jockey programs, it takes two to put on the show. The
engineer takes care of the mechanical details and often says a few words of commentary. The an-
nouncers wait, with earphones, for the directions of the engineer. At WCBN-EQ, Bruce Brunson,

HE'S BURNING THE MIDNIGHT OIL TOO

4:

Exam coming up? Then if you haven't iced that "A" al-
ready, maybe you'll be gulping black coffee and burning
the midnight oil. But consider the modern roadbuilder!
He works on around the clock, completing as much in
one night shift as he did working two 8-hour days in 1940.
What's his secret?
Machines are the roadbuilder's special magic. Machines
that never tire. Machines that do twice the work of 15
years ago.

Helping machines move mountains is just one example
of how the Timken Company works hand-in-hand with
all industry to keep America on the go-by pioneering
improvements in machines and machinery, increasing
speed and precision, decreasing wear and maintenance.
The pioneering spirit has helped make us the world's
largest manufacturer of tapered roller bearings and remov-
able rock bits, and a leading producer of fine alloy steel.
Because the best place to keep going - and keep go-
io un.--is with acomnanv that's on the re von may be
