Minority service offered
How can minority college
students planning for graduate
school find the right opportuni
ties for advanced study?
One way is with the Minority
Graduate Student Locater Ser
vice, developed by Educational
Testing Service (ETS) and of
fered by the Graduate Record
Examinations Board.
Through this free service,
college juniors, seniors and
graduates who are members of
racial and ethnic minorities in
the United States can make
their intentions known to gra
duate schools seeking such
applicants.
Students sign up by com
pleting the registration form
contained in the GRE/MGSLS
Information Bulletin. It is the
same form used to register for
the Graduate Record Exami
nations, comprehensive apti
tude and advanced tests used in
the admissions process by many
of the nation's graduate
schools. But students do not
have to take the GRE to use the
Locater Service.
To take part, students des
cribe themselves bv answering

Jerry Rubin, shown here being arrested with 600 other protesters as he climbs the fence of
Shoreham [Long Island] nuclear plant, will speak at Guilford November 15, 8:00 p.m. in
Dana Auditorium. Admission 75 1 with 1.D., $1.50 for faculty and non-Guilford students,
and $2.50 for the general public.
Purchase of new laboratory
equipment, research supplies,
computer time, travel, and pub
lication costs are supported by
these grants.
Professor Keegan's project
requires equipment for a regu
lated constant power supply
which will subsequently be
available for a variety of demon
stration and laboratory teaching
tasks.
He will be studying "the
Isolation, Purification, and Cha
racterization of Thymidine
Phosphorylase from Tetrahy
mena pyriformis."
Karen Winstead, a senior
biology major who already has
one year's experience in en-
questions that ask for ethnic
background, undergraduate
major, intended graduate major
and other information about
educational experience and ob
jectives. This information is
placed in the Locater Service
file and made available to
participating graduate schools
upon request. GRE scores are
not included in the Locater
Service file.
Each graduate school esta
blishes its own criteria to select
students from the Locater Ser
vice file based on ethnic back
ground, intended major field of
study, degree objective anJ
state of residence. The names of
students who use the Locater
Service and meet the criteria set
by a particular school will
automatically be sent to that
school.
Students who want to make
information available to gra
duate schools three times dur
ing the school year must have
their registration forms in by
Sept. 28. A student who misses
that deadline but has the form
in by Nov. 12 will be able to
participate twice.
Guilfordian
zyme research, will be a re
search assistant in the project.
Clair Morse's project is "A
Study of the Comparative Fre
quency of Smiling for Men and
Women," which has grown out
of a pilot study on difference in
smiling frequency, part of a
broader interest of Professor
Morse's in non-verbal commu
nication.
Richie Zweigenhaft's grant is
for completion of a study of
"Southern Jews and the Upper
Class." This will be the fifth in
his series of papers on this
topic.
Sheridan Simon's award will
assist him in continued study of
"The Evolution of Stars in the
Presence of Non-Negligible Ro
tation," part of a longer project
on the general theory of the
evolution of rotating stars.
Several senior thesis topics
are currently being planned in
this field.
Herb Appenzeller, a nation
ally known expert in the area of
Physical Education and the
Law, will use his grant for
research on sports law in the
area of sport forms.
It is expected that a quarterly
newsletter on current sports law
will also result from this study.
Carol Schmid's book on
"Conflict and Consensus in
Switzerland" has just been
accepted for publication by the
University of California Press.
The grant will support complep
tion of this manuscript on
intergroup relations in Switzer
land.
Paul Zopf's award will assist
him in the preparation of his
new book Cultural Accumula
tion in Latin America, for pub
lication
Additional application dates
for Faculty Research Grants are

Selection is made in relation
to institutional purposes and to
continuing research potential.

WQFS airs new
and old serials
By Liz Collier
Staff Writer
WQFS plans to premier three
new serials after the return
from fall break as part of the
continuing effort to improve the
quality of programming on the
radio station.
On Wednesday evenings at
7:00 starting October 25, the
continuation of last year's
"Great Atlantic Radio" will
begin. These are eight half-hour
programs dealing with various
issues such as State Terrorism
(10/31), Fast Foods (11/7),
Travelling through the City
(11/14), Radio City Big Apple
Blues (11/21), Movement for a
New Society (11/28), The Cam
paign to Stop Government Spy
ing (12/5), and Love (12/12).
Mystery fans should be de
lighted with the new series
called "The Fourth Tower of
Inverness," which will be aired
in fifteen 35 minute shows. The
hero of the story, Hack Flan
ders, encounters conventional
mysteries in the proverbial Vic
torian mansion but he also steps
out of our world into the "astral
world of myth and Science
fiction. Tune in at midnight
every Sunday.
The advertisement in the
order catalog bills the series as
"a totally new, contemporary
"I FORGOT TO &WNG ANY CUR"
October 30, 1979
mystery serial. . . in the grand
old tradition. . . (which) brings
back those days of yore when
imagination flowered and liste
ners say spellbound, staring
into space, hwile upon their
mental screens the most vivid
and exciting images were crea
ted."
The third serial comes from
the Feminist Radio Network, a
series that will feature a variety
of pertinent discussions to inte
rest all women and many men,
also. A sampling of the post
break offerings includes:
"Abortion Report," "Equal
Rights Amendment," "Aint's It
a Shame: Battered Women,"
"Karen Silkwood Story" (Nu
clear Safety, Nuclear Power and
Death), "Nobody Told Me. .
(sexual abuse of children), "A
Secretary is not a Toy," and
Bonnie Raitt.
Returning from last year,
Insights features interviews
with well-known people in mu
sic and art. The roster includes
names such as Keith Jarrett,"
Frank Zappa, Jimi Hendrix,
Jesse Winchester, and Ken
Kesey.
WQFS is on the air from 12
noon until 2 a.m. all week, with
a special Christian Rock Show
from 10 a.m. until noon on
Sundays.
