It will be an in teresting game to watch. Tricky Livingstone College is the next foe for the Mc- Dougal - men. The Broncos have not forgotten the defeat handed to them by the Living stone College Blue Bears and they are anxious for a re match. However, coach John D. Marshall has been playing some very tough foes in the early season and it looks like it will be another interesting game to watch. A win here by the McDougal - men will certainly push them toward the Southern CIAA crown. Li vingstone may not be in the thick of things, but usually play an excellent “spoiler role.” Although the Homecoming contest with Elizabeth City will not count as a conference game (they are in the North Division), it is still a Home coming game and the Broncos want to avenge their loss last year to the Vikings. Finally comes the Golden Bulls of Johnson C. Smith University, who is always a dangerous nemesis to the Bronco-men. If the Broncos are to go all the way, they must go all the way through these opponents. friends thought I had a good voice for radio, so I decided to give it a try.” Rich, who was “recruited” by Crawley to attend Fayet teville State, is a music ma jor and is also looking for ward to graduating next year. After coming to Fayetteville State, Crawley encouraged Rich to enroll. A native of New York City, Rich, is a former student of Berklee School of Music in Boston and Louisburg College in Henderson, N,C. He de scribed WFNC’s listening au dience as being “Intelligent 18-year-oIds, or over, indi viduals.” The music Rich and Craw ley play on their shows is considered contemporary middle of the road sounds such as the Four Tops, Bee Gees, the Carpenters, the Su- premes, and Cher. What are some of the diffi culties faced by these work ing students? Crawley, a six- foot native of Cincinnati, Ohio, revealed that his biggest head ache is trying to schedule his classes so as to agree with his normal work schedule. He’s on the air from 9:30 a,m, to 11 a, m. Then he Is back a- gain with more chatter and platters from 12:30 In the af ternoon and swings to 6:05 in the evening. Rich, who claims to have been around the longest in Fayetteville with his night show, explained that he had no such conflicts as Crawley. Since his show is broad casted during evening hours, he’s free to schedule his classes as he wishes during the day. Although there’s no class schedule gripe from Rich, he \ MODELING — Pretty Miss Jackie Ingram, a native of Raleigh models the latest fashions at a recent “Cabaret of Fashions” sponsored by the student center at FSU.

But he added, “somehow I seem to manage it rather well.” After considering two other colleges in southeastern North Carolina for enrollment, Crawley, an Irish father of three, decided that Fayette ville State had the “best bus iness department,” He commented further that the University has a “compe tent administration and facul-. ty.” He is a former student of Columbia Union College and the University of Mary land. Rich, who plays the tenor saxophone, clarinet, and piano also has praise for the Fay etteville State faculty. “I’ve attended several colleges and I haven’t seen a faculty that’s able to communicate with stu dents as well as the one at FSU.” As program director of WF NC, Crawley, a Vietnam vete ran, is responsible for em ploying company personnel, program production, and the overall supervision of opera tions at the station. Meanwhile, Rich, who be came interested In radio when he was 12 - years - old, finds that the field of broadcast ing is “very expressive. You have the opportunity to be yourself while working,” Af ter working at several radio stations in North Carolina, Rich, came to WFNC in 1969. It seems that everyone has advice to give on some subject and Crawley and Rich are no exceptions, Crawley, who has been a salesman and printer, says that radio is “excellent for a single person”. “There’re good starting salaries In ra dio,” he said, but warned, “In order to advance one must . prepare himself well.” “People who are seeking careers in radio,” said Rich, who also plays with a local band twice a week, “should plan their moves carefully if they want to be successful in that field. He added that “you should try to Improve your self constantly.” Although Crawley and Rich are busy with their jobs and studies and have little time to attend social functions on campus, they maintain that they have had a “beautiful relationship with the FSU community.” WIDN Radio 1600 Top ID Soul Hits TOP 10 SOUL HITS Fayetteville, N.
