Page Four THE pointer Tuesday, January 26, 1954 Several WHPS Staff Members Inspect Chapel Hill Radio Station On January 15-lfi, several mem bers of the staff of WUPS-FM went to Chapel Hill. Their pur pose was to tour WUNC and learn as much about radio as they could. Several of the faces which started out on the tour with eager- to - learn - everything expressions soon changed to bewilderment. “Manager, assistant manager, traffic manager, production man ager, continuity director”—it all sounded much more complicated than WHPS. The group was amazed that there was absolutely no confusion in spite of the fact that the entire Communications Center was un dergoing complete renovation to make room for television studios. Quite different from WHPS! All work at WUNC is done by students. Even the complicated console and engineering e(juipment was built by students. Rigid rules for the station have been made by students, and students see that they are enforced. Until about 11:30 Friday night, the University of North Carolina radio station was invaded by staff members of the High Point Schools radio station, and the invasion re sumed bright and early the next morning. After hearing talks by Mr. Young and Mr. Wallace of the uni versity, several members of the visiting group became interested in attending the Radio Institute, wliich is offered by the university for two weeks during the month of June to high school students or members of the immediate grad uating class. Students who went to Chapel Hill were: Bill Bailey, Sam Guy, Dan Odom, Jim Casey, Bob Blair, Larry Sledge, Ray Montgomery, Lee Groome, Albea Chafin, Betsy Lewis and Barbara Cook.

Dean Mac states that the idea of this discussion group on leader ship was first conceived when he led the discussion on leadership in El Paso, Texas, at the student council convention. Some of the points which are being discussed are: the duties, responsibilities, and routine of each office; the purposes of the student council; and the responsibility of leaders in giving to each member of his group as much of his train ing as possible. 51 HPHS Students Serve As Guides For Atomic Exhibit “Atomic Energy to the Grass Roots,” an exhibit of nuclear stu dies and findings, was displayed in the school administration building January 15-16 with the backing of the High Point Rotary Club, the High Point Public Schools, and High Point College.
