'TLxtroverts' Are Needed
For University Radio Studios
By Mildred Long

Are you bashful? Or are you a
or putting it more
"show off"
kindly, an extrovert? If you're the
latter, and not the nuisance kind,
there is a job just waiting for you
in the University radio studio.
Mrs. Lolo Robinson, program director of the studio, says that
troverts make good radio actors
and announcers, so with a few other considerations such as a pleasing microphone voice, a clear enunciation, a sense of timing, and a
will to work, the way to success is
easy.
Need Script Writers
According to Mrs. Robinson, they
need, more than anything, script
writers and men with smooth masculine voices to take parts in dramatizations and to announce. At
the present time, a series of thirty
recordings called 'Your Land and
My Land," which was made before
most of the male personnel left
for the army, is being used. When

Library Shows
New Exhibit
By Doris Singleton
Definitely in theme with the
present time is the new exhibit on
display in the library. Photostatic
copies of the books and manuscripts
open for exhibition in the John
Carter Bi won Library are now on display here. These works illustrate
the development of the democratic
principle in the United States.
The copies, which were purchased
by the University because of their
present importance,
cover nine
movements in the birth and growth
of democratic principles in America.
The first of the group is Representative Government. Among the
on display are "The
documents
Colonial Records of Virginia. 1874;"
History of Con"A Complete
necticut," and "The General Laws
and Liberties of the Massachusetts
Colony."
Early Plans of Union is the second
group, and here manuscripts such
as "The Proceedings of the Congress At Albany, 1754." including
Franklin's plan of a proposed union
of several colonies,, are exhibited.
Various discourses on government
from England and American plans
for the formulation of a government are also on display.
Famous Protest
With the third group. Taxation Controversy,
James Otis'
famous protest against the Sugar
Act of 17C4. "Rights of the British
Colonies," is on disolay. Documents
in which the rights of the colonies
in regard to taxation are upheld
are also exhibited.
Assertion of Independence,
the
fourth group, included Thomas
aine's "Common Sense," J776, and
also a copy of the "Declaration of
Independence."

resort to programs which use the
voices of the few young ladies who
qualify, and the few ' remaining
men. Ordinarily, girls' voices are
so high and light that they seem
to shriek over a microphone. But
if you have a lovely husky tone, or
can talk down in your tonsils, don't
be discouraged.

Gentlemen particularly talented

thing. No beer, no cigarettes, no
toothpaste, and they won't have to

are purely educational and not.

Intends to write a book on literary
criticism of the romantic period. His
ideas about the period are well presented in this statement "Even
though some 'moderns' might call
me naive, it is my belief that
literature must regain its faith in
the greatness of human nature.
This picturing of the soul of man
as commonplace and his emotions as
mean and contemptible just doesn't
square up with my conception of
what great literature should be.
Sure, it must be fully aware of the
calamities of life and its depravities,
but also it must be an affirmation,
not the destruction, of faith in life
and must help to satisfy the universally human desire to find in this
world some justice, some meaning,
or. at least, some recognizable
order."
