WBAI PHOTO—Progress of Construction
on Church at 62nd St.
OUR MONEY
As this Folio goes to press there is reason for optimism regarding WBAI’s
capital fund raising drive. We have received a substantial initial gift and
a sizeable loan. This has enabled us to meet all our current obliga-
tions on the construction of the new studios and the purchase of new
equipment.
However, we have a long way to go to meet the $250,000 goal over the
next six months. We'll happily accept a capital donation.
This summer was, typically, a difficult one for us as operating income
tapered off seriously. Therefore, it is absolutely essential that we meet
the October operating income goal of $36,000. We can do this if many
of you whose subscriptions expire during October, 452 listeners, and
those of you who have not yet responded to September reminders to
renew—do so now! In addition, based on last October’s figures, we
expect 700 new subscriptions this month.
Thousands of hours of provocative listening will be available to you for
pennies a day, about one-half the cost of your daily newspaper, and with-
out the advertisements. If you listen, and feel that WBAI deserves your
support, renew, or introduce a friend to us through a gift subscription.

WBAI NEWS
So far we have received about 3,000 returns from the audience survey
included in the July Folio. This is a much higher rate than average for this
kind of questionnaire—and as this Folio was prepared, tabulation was
still about two weeks from completion. Which means we ought to have
the information in time for mid-fall programming sessions.
WBAI now has a correspondent in Israel and the Near East, Tom
Ackerman. A 1970 graduate of the CCNY division of the City University,
Tom was News Director of the college radio station, and also covered
the campus for the New York Times. His reports normally will be heard
either on “Extra’’ or on ‘Forgive Us Our Press Passes.’ Tom will con-
centrate on background and analytic coverage, but we made arrange-
ments to carry reports as stories break.
While we're on the subject of news, a few words about “Extra,” which
follows the news Monday through Friday. We plan to use this time for
things we think you should know about but which do not fit into the
‘hard news’ format of our regular newscast: stories growing out of the
day’s news, documentary reports on issues or events, brief pieces on
street life, analysis, Washington Bureau programs. ‘Extra’ is aimed al
making our reporting more flexible and at broadening the scope of our
coverage. As a result, times within the newsblock (6:30-7:45) will»
according to needs. If the idea works, we'll expand it.
We are again producing radio drama. The ‘‘Cat’s Paw Theater,’ ci
rected by Bill Henderson, Drama and Literature Director, debuts this
month and will be heard alternate Friday evenings at 8:45 P.M. When
possible, it will present new works written especially for this series.
Another new program is “Hit Him in the La Bonza,” a sports (Sports?!
show with Sherman Drexler. Far from a football wrap-up, “Hit Him...”
will be interviews, anecdotes, and features from an old-style sports nut,
alternate Fridays at 8:45 P.M. (Want to trade two Drexlers for a Gene
Woodling?)
31
Also, we welcome Celestine Ware, a new program producer in the
Public Affairs Department. Before joining WBAI, Celestine was a staff
writer for LIFE.
Julius Lester is leaving WBAI after the first week in October—which is
the end of his second full year with the station. For the past several
months he’s been commuting from Cape Cod, and regrettably has
decided the traveling is too much. We shall miss him deeply. As an
interim program in Julius’ time slot, we launch “Tuesday Night on the
Radio,” a free-wheeling two hours hosted by one of our stable of
unstable personalities.
And another change: Steve Post is leaving his post as chief announce:
to accept the post of station manager at the C. W. Post College student-
operated radio station. Or, as The New York Post might say, ‘Post quits
post to accept Post post.” Neal Conan takes over Steve’s position and
announcing shift, but Uncle Stevie will continue to produce “The
Outside.”

A varied lot, as the names im-
ply. During these shows, pro-
ducers from our triumvirate
(Drama and Literature, Music,
Public Affairs) form a program
from a block of time. Ap-
proaches differ: P.A. produc-
tions will usually be a series of
topical pieces; others will more
often be intended to be lis-
tened to as a whole. But the
categories are flexible, and the
listings left open to encourage
spontaneity and timeliness.

A 25-Cent Tour of
WBAI’s New Studios
(And What They Will Mean to Us)
by Larry Josephson
Just after this Folio reaches you (if it hasn’t, call the Subscription Depart-
ment immediately), construction of our new studios will have been
completed. Installation and wiring ot broadcast equipment—estimated to
take 6 to 8 weeks will have begun. With any luck then, we will be
broadcasting (as well as editing, producing, Managing, creating, book-
keeping, Fofioing, thinking, dreaming and occasionally sleeping) in our
deconsecrated ¢ Purch by Thanksgiving. We will be as one again!
\What will these new tacilities mean to us—the staff and volunteers—and
to you, the listener-subscribers? (Fans of past Marathons already know
the answer by heart and may skip to the next page).
Observant listeners may have detected the occasional ‘clicks, curses,
squeeks, screams, footsteps, hum, hiss, wow, and long pauses which only.
symbolize the shortcomings of our 39th Street studio. Studio! Should
Jean Genet and Jean Monet happen to show up unexpectedly at our 39th
Street studio at the same moment, we would either be forced to choose
between them or to improvise a dialog entitled, “Criminality, Homo-
sexuality and the United States of Europe.’’
Please drop $0.25 (or $250,000, the total cost of it all) in the collection
plate and we shall begin our tour. (See fancy archifectural plan below).
We enter trom 62nd Street through the Vestibule (1) into the large Main
Studio (3). This studio will be used for recorded or live musical. and
dramatic productions (with live audience), Public Affairs teach-ins, and,
of course, the Free Music Store. The Main Studio, including a balcony
above the Vestibule and Manager's Otfice (1 & 2), will accommodate
150 people in a number of contigurations. This large studio/auditorium
is perhaps the most revolutionary addition to WBAI, for it allows us to
invite the community to come to the station to participate in as well as
audit our broadcasts.
At the far end of the Main Studio is a door to a sound lock (8) which
leads to the sound-controlled areas: studios, control rooms and Edit/
Listening Booths. (4, 5, 6 & 7). Special attention has been paid to the
acoustical character of this area in order to attenuate transmission of
extraneous sound into and between sound spaces, and to provide a good
“sound” within the studios, control rooms and booths. The glass-wool
and plywood under-tloor of the sound-controlled area floats on neoprene
pads, hopefully filtering out the rumble of the soon-to-be-at-your-neigh-
borhood-church 63rd Street Subway. Walls between adjacent sound
spaces are up to 14"2 inches thick, consisting of air, glass wool, quadruple
layers of Ys gypsum board, and perforated hardboard, all heavily caulked
alt the joints. (Acoustics is a black art, not a science).
Master Control (5) and the smaller Edit Control (6, left) will be equipped
with RCA 3-channel stereo control consoles, as well as associated ampli-
fiers, tape recorders, turntables and speakers. These consoles will finally
allow us to do true stereo broadcasting and production. (Stereo at 39th
Street is jury-rigged and very limited in its possibilities). Master Control
will accommodate three guests, which allows Bob, Steve, Paul, Julius,
et. al. room for guests or groupies without tieing up a studio. The larger
Edit Control Room will contain a 4-channel stereo recording and produc-

tion console which will allow us to make sophisticated stereo recordings
of concerts, plays, Techie-Time and the like. This console will allow the
positioning of a point-source of sound anywhere in the stereo field, the
selective filtering and reverberation of sound, all into one or all of four
output channels. We will. be Feady if and when Quadrasonic broadcasting
arrives.
In contrast to. such complexity, the two Edit/Listening Booths will be
most simply equipped: a small mixer, microphone, tape recorder,
cassette’ player and: turntable. Program* producers will be able to. use
these booths by themselves to produce simple programs from field
recordings without need of an engineer or special training. These two
booths alone will at once double our capacity to produce Public Affairs
documentaries.
At 39th Street, there are hundreds of wires crammed into conduits within
the walls that connect. the now-crumbling, 12-year-old equipment.
Many’s the time we’ve wanted to run more wires but couldn’t due to
lack of access and space. All audio and control wiring will be run in
special cable trays at ceiling level. Periodic vertical drops will connect
stationary banks of equipment to. the cable trays. In the future, wiring
changes or additions will be easy and fast.
Two. interior studios, small and large (4), wilt solve the most frustrating
problem of 39th Street: we cannot. presently record more than one
separate person or group at a time. It is not uncommon to see several
groups of sweating humans lined up waiting their turn at the door of
our one, acoustically-awful studio. In addition, for the first time in WBAI
history, we will be able to leave a studio and control room set-up over «
a period of days or.weeks for a complicated production.
The News Department will finally have an office ee than the closet
-of an upper-East Side apartment (15), complete with a soundproof room
for its four news tickers. The silence may drive Paul Fischer up the walls.
A Program Producer’s work area, actually larger than shown (11),
equipped with typewriters, telephones and desks, will provide temporary
space for producers to wiite copy, atrange interviews, and, if time
allows, just think.
The Traffic Department (12) is. responsible for the storage and flow of
tapes to and from broadcast, and. for maintenance of our Archives (13
and downstairs). We will finally be able to maintain: all of our tapes,
-well-indexed in one place, which may mean fewer lost tapes.
Offices for the Public Affairs, Music, Drama and Literature, Folio, Sub-
scription, Bookkeeping, and Kathy departments are already downstairs
in the basement of the Church. The space above the sound studios can,
at a future date and money; be Ane into additional offices and produc-
tion facilities.
Soon we shall be together again, producing more and better programs
with less crowding and contention, and thus higher morale. We can
‘hardly wait, and we hope you share our impatience and enthusiasm.

ELECTRA REWIRED “Now, it is precisely the child that according to
tradition should assure to woman a real independence in which she
is relieved of devoting herself to any other end. If as wife she is not
a complete individual, she becomes such as mother: the child is her
happiness and her justification. Through the child she is supposed to
find self-realization sexually and socially; through childbearing,
then, the institution of marriage gets its meaning and attains its
purpose. It will be well, therefore, for us to examine this supreme
stage in woman’s life history.” Simone de Beauvoir, The Second Sex.

Climbing higher the inveterate darkness
Twisting its well-understood way
Escaping the laughter of dogs
Into the silence of a drunken soul.
Known are its ways, and dull its way,
They see how close they can come
With the precious dye of light
And miss that pale old tree
The soft silt yet illudes their eyes,
Live with the bleached bones that laughter
Discarded where they were found
and were discovered near the fending nimble
hands of the Harlequin,
his ghost in the only corner
holding the darkest tears
startled by the coldest gold
and chased beneath the feet of a virgin
who rolls her eyes and tears pages
out of her cloth-bound mind.
And darkness is the guest of guests
bundling and stacking their hypocrisy
To be stored—
O waving filament of intinit
The brilliant sparkle in a child’s eye
does not pursue thee in patched curiousity.
Close all the doors.

OCTOBER FOLIO CLASSIFIED
No advertisement in this Folio is to be construed as an endorsement
of any organization or business by WBAI...or vice versa. All folio ads
are addressed to all persons.
A NOTE TO ALL SUBSCRIBERS
WBA! will not be accepting any more Folio ads. We will run those ads”
that are paid up for future months, but according to our records, there
shouldn't be any more classified advertisements after December,
1970. The income WBAI made off these ads has always been negligible,
and, frankly, the idea of advertisements in the Folio of a non-com-
mercial station has always bothered us. We can also use the extra page
for expanded listings and Folio art.
