Civic groups, service clubs, unions, religious and youth organizations and local libraries are encouraged to TO kick off its new programming year, WSAP is presenting a major radio study of the most pressing matter faced by the world today: what to do about energy. “Issues in Energy” takes a month-long look at the energy question in its many facets with programs from the U.S. Energy Research and Development Administration, the American Enterprise Institute for Public Policy Research and programming produced by the station staff themselves. “Without a doubt,” said WSAP Program Director Lin Thompson in an interview with THE LANCE, “this is the most thorough look at an issue we’ve ever conducted. It’s comprehensive but isn’t boring, and divided up into manageable segments scattered through the month, with a summing up of what we’ve seen during the series at the end.” Student Life Committee Meets In their first meeting of the year, the Student Live Committee last night ap proved the budget as received from the Senate.

While the Forums, radio sparring grounds for prominent public figures over a given issue, are a regular part of WSAP’s programming this year, a number of their programs dealing with energy matters have been drawn together for presentation as part of the Issues in Energy series. Featuring such noted energy issue people as Ralph Nader, Senator Henry Jackson, Vice President Walter Mondale, Captain J.Y. Cousteau, James Schlesinger, the programs are being set for the 7 to 8 p.m. hour on Mondays, Wed nesdays and Fridays. On Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays at 7, WSAP will run fifteen minute programs produced by the U.S. Energy Rsearch and Development Administration on various aspects of the search for alternative sources of energy. “We see this series as a complement to the ongoing debate over President Car ter’s energy plan,” Thompson continued. “Most of the issues it raises are covered in our programs a pleasant coinci dence that should enable our listeners to come to well in formed conclusions about energy options for the United States and the world.” Carnival Planned A carnival is being planned for Muscular Dystrophy by the College Christian Council, The Health Science Club, The National Paraphalegic Foundation and the Black Student Union.
