WHAT’S GOING ON?
You'll note that this is a thicker and, we think, more substantive Folio. We're going to try
to bring you more information in the way of articles, photographs, letters, and more complete
listings. We'd like to invite. you to send in your photographs and art. We also are exploring other
ways to produce the Folio less expensively so that economic considerations won't clash with editorial
judgments about what should be included.
After several weeks of ad hoc administrative arrangements and procedures, several key decisions
have been made as this goes to press which should smooth operations at the station and help
us achieve our perennial goal — the best possible programming. Nanette Rainone, who has been
with the station since the summer of 1968, and whom many of you know through a number of
programs she has produced which focus on the Women’s Liberation Movement, has also worked
for the station as a general assignment reporter. She has assumed the post of Program Director
of WBAI. Bruce Soloway, who has been an active member of the Public Affairs staff since his
arrival in June of 1970, has assumed the position of our Public Affairs Director. This month a
number of programming changes will be introduced.
Last Spring, Paul Gorman produced a series of lectures by Baba Ram Dass (formerly Richard
Alpert). The response to this series was remarkable. In fact, out of the series has grown a weekly
meditation group of people who listened to the series. This month we begin IN THE SPIRIT at
11:00 Sunday mornings— a program which will open the station up still further to the growing
interest in spiritual experience and teaching. The program will present a wide variety of material
and voices, as ecumenical as possible, as well as special music, chanting, meditation techniques,
and live events in our own ‘‘church”’.
The Music Department will be doing longer and more varied programs this month, with 2
hours and 15 minutes being devoted to music each morning. These musical programs will be
hosted by various members of the Music Department, and the continuity and commentary will
be informed. The traditional afternoon music period will be abandoned on a regular basis. However,
frequently, the tapes of a variety of European music festivals will be aired.
We will also be busy making music ourselves, as THE FREE MUSIC STORE returns with
an expanded schedule of four evenings per week. Every Saturday night the programs will be broad-
cast live while the other performances will be recorded for future broadcast. The people in the
Music Department will keep you informed on this.
CONTINUED TOMORROW will move to a late afternoon time when, we feel, its audience
will be larger. This month we’re particularly pleased that members of a number of American Indian
tribes from the American Indian Community House in New York City will be reading Bury My
Heart at Wounded Knee by Dee Brown, each afternoon on CONTINUED TOMORROW.
The Drama and Literature Department is also initiating another new series, THE POETRY
OF ASIA AND ITS TRANSLATORS. This series will introduce listeners to the poetry of China, Korea,
Japan, and India through such readings, discussions, and commentary. The critical role of the
translator —such as Arthur Waley and‘Ezra Pound— will also be examined.
Jan Albert, whose talents have thus far only been glimpsed— as sit-in for Bob Fass from
time to time— will host a program for children, CANDY FROM STRANGERS, on Sunday mornings
from 10:00 to 11:00.
Meanwhile, back in the Public Affairs Department, we’ll be putting together REMEMBER ATTICA,
which will be broadcast in five hour-long segments during the week of November 1, on Monday
through Friday evenings. The introduction to this series will be heard on Monday, November 1,
at 11:30 a.m. Based on the tapes in hand and those we are still collecting, we think it’s going
to be a provocative and informative series.
The Network Project is a New York-based collective concerned with making the mass media
responsible to its audience. For the past year, the Project has been doing intensive reasearch
into the structure and function of network television, and we’re pleased that they’ve decided to
present their findings through a series of programs on WBAI. The series, entitled FEEDBACK,
will begin this month with two introductory programs— the first, on television as a pure medium,
and the second, on television as an industry. These programs will be produced jointly by the
Network Project, with Bruce Soloway, and David Rapkin of our staff. They'll be aired on PUBLIC
AFFAIRS SPECIALS and PUBLIC AFFAIRS MAGAZINES, and we’ll be announcing specific broadcast
times on the air as soon as possible.
Please remember that these and other program ideas which we’re anxious to air all cost
money to produce. Spread the word about Pacifica Radio in New York and consider a gift subscription
(see coupon inside back cover). We are only as strong as the number of paying supporters—subscri-
bers— that we have. Thank you.

REMEMBER ATTICA
In September over a thousand inmates at Attica State Prison
seized control of two cellblocks, captured 38 hostages, and de-
manded a sweeping set of prison reforms. Four days later New
York State authorities attacked the prison with teargas and
firepower, killing 9 hostages and at least 32 inmates. After the as-
sault, the state imposed a near-total news blackout on the prison,
and in the following weeks, the full story of the rebellion emerged
slowly through lawyers, physicians, relatives, and reporters who
were eventually allowed inside the prison walls. The events at Attica
stimulated demonstrations of support for the prisoners, accusations
of murder against the state, a series of investigations, and hundreds
of proposals from many sources, for changes in the American penal
system. In September, WBAI covered the Attica State Prison Re-
bellion in depth. This month, we present a five-part documentary
report on the rebellion, compiled from our coverage of the events
during and after the uprising. The reports will be heard on the
first five nights of the month, at 11 PM each night. On Monday,
November 1, we'll present tapes made at the height of the rebellion,
including interviews with inmates, negotiators, and state officials,
and an actual negotiating session recorded inside the prison yard.
On Tuesday, November 2, we'll rebroadcast recordings of the assault
on the prison, made by Paul Fischer and Deloris Costello outside
the prison walls. The third program, on Wednesday, November 3,
will review the first reports about the aftermath of the rebellion,
including press conferences at the beginning of the blackout, frag-
mentary reports from doctors and lawyers on their attempts to enter
the prison, and coverage of a sit-in at the University of Buffalo
Medical School demanding medical assistance for the prisoners.
Thursday’s program will be a report on the Black Friday rally held
in Buffalo on September 17, including speeches by James Forman
of the Black Workers Congress, Dr. Alise Gulatti of Howard Uni-
versity, and friends and relatives of the Attica victims. The final
program, on Friday, November 5, will trace the responses to the
Attica rebellion since that first week, including accusations, de-
fenses, demonstrations, investigations, and suggestions for reform.

A letter to the staff and
| just finished rewriting an article about producing
ELECTRA REWIRED: the things that go on during the
program; my influences and habits as aradio producer. It
is now 7:30 a.m., Tuesday morning, I’ve just returned from
the station, having done a program about honesty and
openness. The article reflected the program which reflected
the article etc. which is all the same thing anyway because
| created both. In some way I’m my biggest influence,
channeled through listener feedback, conversations with
friends, and all other available sources.
| somehow wasn't satisfied with what I'd said. The real
issue |wantto talk about is not how! produce ELECTRA
REWIRED but what's going on at WBAI. Itseems to bea
tradition at the station that we discuss and analyze all
politics except our own. REPORT TO THE LISTENER is
about money, not about internal conflicts, not about how
we make decisions, not about who's being hired and fired
and why. So let this be a report to the listener. Biased and
prejudiced—so be it. I’ve been working full-time at WBAI
now for almost two years. Before that | volunteered as an
assistant to Bob Fass. I’ve run the Free Music Store, produced
music programs, hosted and produced ELECTRA REWIRED,
conducted interviews, run the switchboard, announced,
produced news feeds, emptied water bottles, swept up, and
engineered recordings. This is nothing unusual at BAI,
most people who are on staff started as volunteers and have
done as many or more jobs than |. But I’ve seen a lot of what
goes on.|’ve made aconscious effort to find out what people
were thinking, how people were being treated. | spend about
one fourth of my time nosing around trying to find out
what’s going on. Nobody ever tells anybody anything at
BAI. That is, they tellaselect group of friends about an
idea or decision, and the way the rest of us finally learn
about it is by reading the Folio, or by overhearing a
conversation, or by being told in staff meetings after the
decision is final. It’s astandard myth that the staff has final
say in all decisions. Maybe that’s true in a real crisis: if for
some reason we all agree on an issue, | Suppose we would
have real power. I’ve only seen that happen once intwo
years, when we decided almost unanimously that we did not
want to receive money from the Corporation for Public
Broadcasting. If! remember correctly, we were toldina
meeting that we had already accepted the money. But only
a few people had been privilege to the information. We
decided that we didn’t want to take the money and the
Original decision was reversed. The money was returned.
But it almost slipped right by us. It was only by chance that
we had a discussion about it.
The summer before last, a few of us decided that it would
be good to collectivise the station. We had several meetings
about it. They were good meetings, held at various people’s
houses instead ofthe stuffy, hot basement of the church. We
were naive to assume that the station could be collectivised
so easily. There was a lot of opposition, naturally from those
people who held the most power and, disillusioned, we
stopped having the weekly meetings, and soon the idea was
abandoned.
The power elite remained, changing personnel every once
inawhile, but, as the old saying goes, ‘‘In the dark, they’re
all the same.”’ Program directors came and went. A
programming directorate was formed. A programming
directorate was disbanded. | don’t think there were ever
more than around four or five people who knew what was
going on. |think | knew more than most people because |
made it my business to sit down in the middle of a
conversation between likely people and say, ‘‘what’s going
on?” | kept my ears open:
Of course, there’s the argument that people are never
intentionally left out of decisions. The liberals say that.
There’s also the argument that certain decisions have to be
made by anelite, thata bureaucracy is necessary to keep
the station running smoothly. The old guard says this.
They’re allthe same to me. | love some of them, but! can’t
agree with them.
listeners --
lonce had a vision of Pacifica. It was a place that was
constantly changing, itwas a place where exciting people
brought exciting ideas; there was an exchange of information
between visionaries. The spirit of the time was deciphered,
made cohesive, and given back to the public who, in turn,
gave forth more ideas and so on back and forth, travelling
at the speed of sound. | thought that the staff was an
organic entity, flexible, trusting, able to work together to
produce this amazing spirit and creativity.
Two things happened. One, | grew up and realized that
this was not the best of all possible worlds, that no group of
people could ever function like this. Two, |came to work at
WBAI. I’ve never worked anywhere else, and| know things
are alot worse in other places. The energy and dedication
of most of the staff and volunteers still amazes me. But I’ve
grown very disillusioned with the politics of the station.
I’m not a very paranoid woman. | don’t think anyone
spends time lurking in the shadows whispering ‘‘that
crazyliza.’’ Julius Lester wrote a poem about calling up
one’s revolutionary friends before they were found murdered
in their beds. | know that that’s a reality for many
revolutionaries. But the revolutionaries | know (I hate the
word “revolutionary,” it’sacliche, and ambiguous, but I'll
use it here and hope that you understand my meaning)
won'tever be shot in their beds. Nobody with any power
even takes them seriously. I’m talking about women, of
course. Women involved in a revolution of consciousness.
As inthe outside world, few people at WBAI understand the
implications of what land asmall core of station people are
saying when we speak of achange of structure. There isa
male power clique at WBAI which, while professing
ignorance of its power, uses that power to shape the station.
This group does not recognize the sexism inherent in its
elitism. Some of them don’t even recognize their elitism. In
order to be recognized by these men, the women at the
station have to be twice as loud, twice as aggressive, and
twice as articulate as any man. There is not a high feminist
consciousness among the womenat the station, but | doubt
that there is one of us who does not realize that she is being
exploited. There are women who are producers, reporters,
who hold “responsible” positions. But it’s twice as hard for
us. Maybe triply hard because in some ways the sexism at
the station is quite subtle. Small concessions are made,
women are given some air time, a few women are given pay
raises. Men talk about male chauvanism. They make an
effort to say ‘“‘woman”’ instead of ‘‘girl.’”’ They pretend to
understand the women’s liberation movement. But then
there are the snide jokes—metaphorical pinches on the ass.
They think that talking about women’s liberation is enough,
but they still won’t listen. We still aren’t taken seriously.
I'm tired of shouting. | don’t like to shout. I’m tired of
saying, ‘yes, |am being exploited. Why can’t you see that?”’
| have agood job. It took me along time to get asalary
(coincidence?) but | now have one—small, but adequate
for my needs. | have seven hours of air time per week, |
come and go as| please. So what do! want? What more
could | ask for?
September 28, 1971
|ask for this. A place to work where nobody is exploited.
Where volunteers are treated with equal respect. Where.all
people are listened to with equal attention. Where all
people are treated with respect. | have atendency to be
short with people whom | consider stupid. That’s a real
problem, one! have to deal with. |expect everybody to try
to analyze and totry to rid themselves of their prejudices. |
don’t expect us to be able to change suddenly. But we never
even discuss our problems.
I'd like to see the station function collectively. | now
realize that this can’t happen among a group of people
whose group consciousness is so low that it’s barely
perceptible. I’m tired of amale power clique. I’m tired of
cliques and I’m tired of ranking jokes that alienate. Most of
all, 'm depressed and angry at the unwillingness or
inability of most people at the station to recognize the
situation and try to deal with it. Some people are
dissatisfied with the power elite but help to support it by
not actively working to change it.
Lest you be as depressed asl am by all ofthis, let me say,
inclosing, that there /s a growing group of women and men
which is trying to change its consciousness and eventually
that of the whole station. It’s a frustrating (though
fascinating and frequently enlightening) battle, but WBAI
cannot achieve full integrity while some members continue
to exploit others.

WHAT I DID O_N MY SUMMER VACATION
By Lar rerey, Josephson, age $) =
This summer our family went to live in Holland. Holland is nice. There are lots
of water, and sky, and cows and grass and hash. We lived in Amsterdam on Roompotstraat
which means Cream Pot Street. Roompotstraat is named after the Cream Pot River which
flows in the south of Holland.
I learned to speak Dutch. It was difficult because everybody speaks it different,
and fast, and mushy. At first I could hardly understand a word, but now I can talk it
good. Does anyone want to talk Dutch with me. (Wilt iemand Nederlands tot mij spreken? )
Dutch mommies are very strict and very clean. They spend most of their time beating
their rugs, scrubbing their steps and letting their dogs go doo-doo on the sidewalk. I
don't know how to say "ecology" in Dutch. (Ik weet niet hoe in Nederlands "ecology" te
zeggen. ) When the mommies are not cleaning, they go shopping. There are no giant A&P's
with tasteless food in Holland. Instead there are many little stores with tasteless food.
It takes a long time for the mommies and brothers and sisters to shop for dinner. We must
carry our food in many little cloth bags and baskets. It is not all hard work though.
After a Dutch mommie gets done with her cleaning and shopping and cooking and ironing and
taking care of her many children, she can sit down and relax and watch really fun tele-
vision programs like "Marcus Welby, M. D." and "Bonanza."
Life in Amsterdam was not all canals and herrings. I had a job in a radio station
called VPRO. It is a lot like Pacifica School, full of strange-looking people with wierd
ideas and long hair. Our Dutch neighbor said that VPRO is controlled in Moscow. That is
not truee It is controlled in Hilversum, Holland. The people at VPRO were very nice to
me. They let me talk on the radio in Dutch. Every Friday.
Sometimes I had a half hour. Sometimes I had 30 seconds. I talked about hippies
sleeping in the park, the U. S. Supreme Court, dog doo, the Black Panthers and the Queen
of the Netherlands. That was very nice of them to give me this time for they have only
43 hours a week to give.
The people who talk on VPRO are all very smart. Some of the best journalists,
essayists, and radio people in all Holland work at VPRO. They all have a good sense of
radio which they put to good use in long meetings in heavy Dutch, called the collective,
where they discuss each others good sense of radio. I didn't understand much that was
Said. Neither did some of the people speaking, I guess, because they decided at the time
I left not to spend so much time in the collective talking about each others sense of
radio. They decided to let more of the smart people apply their good radio sense to the
radio. I will miss the meetings very much, especially all the good things to eat there
like the broodjes and the soup and the chocolate milk. Broodjes are little buttered buns
stuffed with meat or cheese or nothing. The food at VPRO is much better than the Pa-
cifica School cafeteria.
I'm glad that we went to Holland. I made many nice friends, including my Dutch
pen~pal, Peter Flik, who will visit Pacifica School this fall, and I learned to speak
Dutch which will be good if we ever go to Indonesia or Curacao. I also learned that it
is more hard to live and work in foreign country than I thought. I learned that America
is not as bad as the strange people with long hair say it is. God Bless America and God
Bless President Nixon and Mr. Goodman.

Cheese Today, Tomorrow the World
Everybody who worksat this place has a different idea of
what we’re doing (had you noticed?). Somebody once came
in with ‘“‘Listen to Each Other’ buttons, | think from KPFT;
and PZ, great patriot to the Shoe that he is, had the quick
sense to clap his hands over his ears and grimace at the
mere thought of it. The Techies are very practical.
Every so often, however, we have to pass through a really
funny ceremony called a Staft Meaty where we all get
together in the basement, abuse the station manager,
amuse one another, and make intense statements. These
sessions are so uniquely dull (if you think we’re boring on
the air you imagine us in person), we thought we might
showcase occasional samples of such inspiration in the
Folio. Coming up in future issues: / Sleep by Day by Bob
Fass, The Importance of Being Earnest by Stephen Post, and
Temperamental Kids and Industrial Relations in the Age of
Aquarius by Chairman Edwin A. Goodman. ZZZZZZ2ZZZZ.
Mine is called Cheese Today, Tomorrow the World.
A lot of times, when we're really doing it right here, you
get the feeling suddenly that something special is
happening, something beyond the program itself. | think
everyone has had that one. Say during a particularly open
Women’s program, ora funny and spontaneous moment
late at night, or during alive phone call from a prison, or
during the Marathon. There are a lot of ways to describe it.
What seems to happen is that certain things we do touch
such a true and real place that suddenly youcan feel the rest
ofthe audience’s involvement almost as intensely as your
own. You flash to all these minds all tuned into the same
place, and suddenly BAI seems larger than life. Call these
moments genuine Community Radio Flashes, and I think
they tell us something about what we can become.
When they happen, those moments, we are no longer
reporting the news or talking about it. We are the news, we
are the action. An event of real consequence is taking place
right there, if only for a moment. We don’t usually
acknowledge it as an Event, but only because it takes place
ona plane which we're not used to observing—not out there
outside, on streets or in offices or on battlefields. Not really
as part of the History movie. It takes place on the
Consciousness plane, some not yet fully understood post-
print plane where the species is itself being transformed by
its forms of mass communication.
Everybody loves those special moments, I think, because
they sense that the distance between artist and audience
breaks down in a moment of shared awareness. It’s no
longer We-They but Us, acomplete and unitary organism
communicating with itself. In asense, that is the condition
to which all Art aspires. And we are achieving it more
than we know, and inso doing becoming much more than
most of us dare imagine. It’s hard to know quite how to
discuss it, but it’s time to try.
In away, like all successful institutions, we can become
prisoners of past accomplishments. Pacifica was born inthe
early 1950’s in Civil Liberties, Pennsylvania, of earnest and
generous parents who had little notion of what they were
preparing their offspring to face in the 1960s. ‘‘Go out and
tellthe truth’, they said, and so we did. The obligation we
felt most strongly was to meet the community’s need for
Information. And that responsibility was enlarged beyond
any expectation by the tragedy of Vietnam and the timidity
ofthe American press in reporting it. Some people drew the
analogy between Pacifica in the Vietnam years and the
BBC during World War Il. Not such an overstatement to
those millions of people who, without Pacifica, might have
lived through those years in deadening ignorance like so
many oftheir fellow countrymen. So the most intense point
of contact between us and you grew primarily out of the
information we were providing. We were telling the story
the other media could be telling and should be telling, but
weren't.
Without in any way denying the urgency of telling people
the Bad News, some of us found it to be something ofa
dead-end street. We could play anightly War Summary, and
give out times for every imaginable demonstration, but
there didn’t seem to be much we could do beyond that to
deal with the terrible frustration and impotence people felt
as they tuned into News of Fresh Disasters. Some of us
thought there was nothing else we could do. Some of us
wondered. What was important, in any case, was that an
audience began to assemble, hundreds of thousands of
people, who, over a period of time, shared experiences and
grew together by being informed together. Every year
during the Marathon we got increasing evidence of that
audience’s increasing loyalty and awareness.
| believe all of that has taken us to anew stage, not one
which in any way moves us away from continuing to inform;
we know how to do that and we must do it more and better.
But there are new paths opening up to usnowasaresult of
the awareness people reached during the 1960s and the
services we performed in nourishing that awareness. What
is especially exciting is that they are not really paths which
other media could be following at present. They are unique
to a community radio station like BAI.
These opportunities arise because two separate sources of
inspiration for our work here are beginning to cross-fertilize.
On the one hand, the experiences of the 60s forced
everyone who was awake to examine almost every aspect
of their lives, to examine it radically, to examine it with
sisters and brothers, and to share in the creation of
genuinely different values and life styles. More and more
this became the way we dealt with the frustration of not
being able to stop the terror and bloodshed. And a great
spirit of liberation swept thru the culture, greater in its
implications than most of us thought at the time. While this
was happening, largely thru our experiences with live radio,
BAI began to discover a new intimacy and freedom and
spontaneity of tone which allowed us to tune into how
people really Are—not just what they believe or say, but the
feeling, insound, of who we are. Things seemed to become
much more real as they happened on the air. And more and
more you began to hear the flow, the actual process of
people living in change. Not a report or an essay ora
critique of life, second or third or fourth hand, but life
itself, happening right here and now.
It happens best when people talk from their Being.
Womens programs have given us many such moments,
moments when communication transcends information and
becomesa form of union. You hear it during the Marathon
in a different way, and in the voice of some poor lost
‘personality’ in another way, and during some unexpected
phone callin yet another. Butall of those have something
in common. In one way or another, they release in the
audience asense of belonging to asingle living organism
inthe process of shaping its common consciousness. And
that is nothing less than a microcosm of what has to happen
to the Whole Species on the Whole Earth.
|think the reason this has been happening on the air is
that people really need it to happen and are ready for it to
happen. |think we are responding, more or less consciously,
to anew need in our audience: the need to use community
radio as an instrument for individual and collective self-
definition as well as public opinion and information.
Clearly we do not live all our lives in the middle of
History. Clearly we are more than our ‘‘current events.”
We are born, we are children, we marry, we make homes,
we suffer, we rejoice, we have children, we wonder what it
alladds upto, we die. Yet in some funny way these most
basic of experiences—and the incredible beauty and
complexity of them—have all but escaped any portrayal in
our media. They weren't things people quite talked about
that way, that publicly.
Only now people do and now people will, at least when
their awareness brings them to that point, and when they
are given a free forum to do itin, and when trusted and
capable hands are there to help make it happen right. That
is where we've arrived after getting our minds blown by
the 60s.
It may sound a little abstract or metaphorical here on
paper. But! think there are certain quite direct implications
for programming. We should seek more occasion for the
community to come together on the air to share and meet
its common human needs. Specifically? Well, for one
example, there are people all over the place confused or
troubled about Sex—just about everybody in this incredibly
repressed culture. Why can’t we find ways to open that up to
serious personal discussion. People are ready to do that, not
for titillation, but to deal honestly and openly with problems
we allshare. Everybody faces death at one time or another.
We should begin to open that up too, to share our
experiences with death, to find ways to deal with it, to find
strength to break the fear of death and thus release further
the power of life. Raising children. Getting old. Seeking
faith. All ofthese are happening all the time, usually as the
most important part of people’s lives. And they are
presently being examined by many of us with all the
purposefulness and awareness that we gathered in the
course of these last mad years. They must become part of
the station.
None of us has any final picture of howto open up this
dimension of life to radio programming. We do have some
examplesthough, ranging from Women’s CONSCIOUSNESS-
RAISING to the TRAVELS AND TEACHINGS OF BABA RAM
DASS. (This month, beginning Nov. 14, we are startinga
regular two-hour program called IN THE SPIRIT which
will reflect the growing search in our culture for spiritual
experience, insight, and discipline.) At the very least, how-
ever, we have to open ourselves up to people outside who
have special gifts for communication in this area. And
they must come to us. I think we have to be much more
open to allofyoutoo. Our audience is still our greatest
unexplored and underestimated resource. But for now,
it is sufficient that we take account of some of the
opportunities that lie before us, opportunities that have
grown organically out of past work and past success. It
may turn out to be more important than we ever realized.
Imagine that the Extraterrestrials up there (with whom
our sympathies really lie) actually are ‘Monitoring our
Broadcasts’. Only what they observe is not quite the
content but rather the flux and the form of Consciousness
as it moves thru all our wave channels—television, radio,
drug trips, telephones, love affairs, meditations, dreams.
And when we all get together behind one of those special
BAI moments, what they actually observe on their screens
is asudden spontaneous bloom of collective awareness—
flash, everybody tied right in, very conscious, you can feel
it, nO more gap between source and receiver, just one big
thing happening right now. And since these Marsguys are
Very High Beings, it iooks really beautiful to them as it
comes blossoming upon their screens amidst the crazy
criss-cross pattern of everyday media death chatter. So they
grunt to one another, nod their many heads in approval,
and grant the Earth 100 more days in which to get hip or be
evaporated to protect the Intergalactic Union of All Species
from our infectious suicidal madness.
All power to the Transmitter,
Gorgonzola the Cheese Monster.
Dear Free Music Store Fans:
Another season of live music, free music (dance, theatre, mime), but mostly music, all kinds, is
on its way. November shapes up as follows: Wednesday and Saturday nights at 9 P.M. (we'll be
expanding to more nights later) with Wednesdays permanently in WBAI’s Studio C and Saturdays
probably in Studio C but — stay tuned! (we’re hoping and waiting to move to a larger space
for the weekends at the Space for Innovative Development, a great place you’ve probably never
heard of.)
Wednesday nights in Studio C is a new concept: We'll be doing recitals (we didn’t have any last
year), smaller chamber works, far-out or way-in things we’re not sure of...uh... poetry... any-
thing goes, Wednesday nights. Also a special Sunday night, Nov. 14th at 10:00 P.M.: SEALS & CROFTS!
Saturday nights are ‘‘live broadcast’ nights. So we'll be doing events we really dig. As always,
the atmosphere is dress, sit, stand, lie, listen however you please. If you like listening while reclining,
bring a pillow. But most of all, just come.
Looking forward to seeing you—
Sincerely,

Supreme Court, died on Sept. 25, 1971. He was
pigeon-holed in the liberal wing of the Court, but
was actually a “Strict-constructionist” in the most
literal sense of the term; he believed that the First
Amendment’s “...no law... abridging the freedom
ofthe press...’ meant no law. Period. Larry Joseph-
son talks with former law clerks of Justice Black as
well as civil liberties lawyers and law professors.

WBAI Subscribers:
We hope that this depiction of Ch. Nukkah with the now famous Santa
Claw of La Brea will serve to remind our beneficient listeners that the holi-
day spirit is almost out of the woods. Nukkah, a student at Great Bear In-
stitute for Hired Learning wrote us (enclosing the picture) in the hope that
his now-lapsed giff subscription would be renewed by the same anonymous
benefactor. If you would like to renew Chan’s sub, or if there is someone
else you have in mind for whom gift shopping is difficult, a gift subscrip-
tion to WBAI is probably in order. Yes, for the indigent student or the po-
tential WBAI listener, a gift subscription could do more than brighten the
holiday season, it could bring a dozen months of our Folio into the mail-
box of your choice. If you already subscribe, turn on a friend and help keep
the Spirit of La Brea.
