February Program Guide MANAGER'S MEMO

Over the past year or so, I've encouraged you to "Discover the Difference" of local public radio.

Hopefully, you've discovered that local public radio programs are not interrupted by commercial messages; that public radio offers in-depth news and public affairs reporting and types of music (like classi-cal, jazz and folk) not otherwise heard in this area.

Hopefully, these differences have made a differ-ence to you.

Hopefully, as WGLT begins its annual fund-raising effort, you can make a difference to WGL T.

WGLT Is funded, in part. through a combination of State and Federal monies. The money we receive from ISU provides us with the basic equipment to put a signal on the air and most of the staff necessary to operate it; however, little or no money is available from this source for programming, advertising, news and weather wire services, network costs or publica-tion of this guide.

The Federal support we receive helps cover some add1t1onal expenses but is expected to decrease dramatically in the fiscal year beginning October 1, 1982-we anticipate, in fact, that we may receive only about one-half of our 1981-82 grant amount.

We have already begun making some cuts in our operation by reducing a full-time position in our news area to a half-time position, every aspect of station operation is under scrutiny with a view to reducing our expenses without hurting the quality of the pro-grams we offer you.

To cover the rest of the gap that will result from the anticipated Federal budget reductions, we must raise $7,500 during our annual campaign .

If you're already a "Friend of WGL T" I urge you to renew your membership; if you're a new listener, consider the value of commercial-free public radio.

We can offer you the finest in music and public affairs programming without commerical interruption because we are public radio; we can offer you types of music not heard on commercial stations because we are public radio; we can offer you the award-winning morning and afternoon news programs, Morning Edition and All Things Considered, because we are public radio. We can continue to serve you only with your support.

Become a Friend of WGLT.

BLACK HISTORY MONTH February is Black History Month and WGLT

will celebrate by featuring a variety of special pro-grams examining the past, present and future of Black Americans.

The Black experience will be explored from a variety of perspectives ranging from religion to music.

"Gospel: Preaching in Word and Song" is an examination of preaching styles which are character-istic of the traditional Black church . The skills of the modern Black preacher have developed into an art which, in the words of one minister, "is not the art of a rugged individualist in isolation. It is instant art, art that's centered around a happening."

Listeners to the program will be able to hear various examples of gospel preaching in full swing, as well as practitioners of gospel talking about their art.

A profile of the life and work of the legendary jazz trumpeter Clifford Brown, will be presented during "Shades of Brown "This special program includes a previously unreleased Jazz piano performance as well as exclusive interviews with Brown's friends and colleagues.

The hour-long special "Maya Angelou: Portrait of the Black Artist" features the beliefs and the works of the gifted Black poet, Maya Angelou Taped at the University of Cincinnati's 1979 Black Arts Festival, Angelou reads selections from her own work as well as others.

WGLT will also air "From Jumpstreet: A Story of Black Music." Hosted by singer/ composer Oscar Brown, Jr., this ten-part series explores the rich tradi-tion of Black music from its African origins through blues, gospel. jazz, soul, rhythm and blues and Jazz fusion . The program contains interviews and per-formances by contemporary musicians as well as recordings by artists from the past.

Black History Month specials will be broadcast at 1 O p. m. each Monday-Thursday during February on "Ebony Affair.,,

SCHAAD ON RECORDS

Because of the vast array of classical music available and the new developments in recording technology, many people find it difficult choosing classical records.

We atWGLT realize this, which is why we broad-cast "Schaad On Records."

As part ofour continuing effort to aid your under-standing of classical music, "Schaad On Records", hosted by Roar Schaad, provides listeners with ari informative look at recently released recordings of classical music.

Twice each week "Schaad On Records" presents a review of a newly released classical recording along with musical excerpts from the work.

Tune in to WGLT between 8:35 and 9:00 a.m. Mondays for excerpts from the featured album and at 2:00 p.m. Wednesdays for an expanded examination of the same recording.

All selections featured during "Schaad On Records" are made available by Record Service of Normal, 207 S. Broadway.
