              Editorial Comments
On Or Off The Air
Little known on this campus is a small group of students
which works its fingers to the bone in an effort to entertain
and please the students of the three resident halls. A great
many of the dormitory students have paid little attention to
the fact that Campus Radio, KFSC, even exists.
Members of the three halls have at their grasp one of the
greatest services ever offered them here at Fresno State and
yet few take advantage. At least this is the impression given
in recent surveys.
KFSR is in competition with as many as 21 other stations
in the area according to station manager Bill MacKenzie. But
even against such odds, KFSR has one big advantage. KFSR
does not have to satisfy or please a giant audience of unde¬
termined interests or groups of all ages and needs. Campus
Radio has only to offer the type music and news which inter¬
ests its limited audience—namely the college residents in the
three halls. KFSR can be heard only in the dormitories on
campus. Because of its limited audience, Campus Radio can
specialize in the kind of radio listening you want. The KFSR
staff does an outstanding job in its specilaizing capacity. It
hand picks its music and the news staff keeps FSC students
well aware of what is happening on the college scene; an
unbeatable combination.
It Takes A Team Effort
Few people realize the great team effort which is involved
in presenting programs over the airways from 3-11 PM five
days a week. Only too often the work of a group, such as
that of the Campus Radio staff, is taken for granted and is
not appreciated. It is true that at times reception in the dor¬
mitories is not satisfactory. However, most of the time
reception is good.
Many students have not yet even heard of Campus Radio.
Others have been too lazy to flip their dials to 660 and give
the KFSR staff a chance to prove themselves.
Probably the lack of ability on the part of the radio staff
to inform the students of its presence stems from the fact
that-only limited advertising may be displayed in the resident
halls.
In fact such limitations have been placed on advertising
by the housing coordinator that its existence in the halls is
hardly noticed.
It is a heartache for a radio staff to sign off the air at the
end of the-day still wondering if the many hours spent in
preparing newscasts and music shows were spent in vain.
It Speaks For Itself
We don't have to speak for KFSR once you've heard it.
It can speak for itself. To Bill MacKenzie, Dave Cooper,
news director; Howard Kolus, program director; Merv An¬
derson, sports, and the rest of the KFSR staff, there is great
appreciation, from those who have already heard you and
continue to turn the dial often to 660.
We hope others will take an interest in your shows too, for
they have everything to gain and nothing to lose by doing so.

Sweet Flower of Delight
Sweet flower of delight,
In yonder meadow green.
You're fresh, aglow.
so rull of beauty to bestow;
Upon  those, who. from afar with
lenses seek,
your beauty to behold.     >.
The crisp, fresh dew of morning's
dawn,
which upon thy petals rests.
Doth sparkle, and shine, and glit¬
ter, and glow,
as the sun's mere rays reflect
as drops of honey, to the
envy of thy foe.
In   the   beauty   of   the   meadow
green,
there stands not one of higher
esteem
Than   thee,   sweet   flower  of   my
dream. ___. '
