BOB WHITE
. . . frosh candidate
Dr. Coy
to Direct
PCC Band
By Jim McCausland
Dr. Richard Coy is the new di¬
rector tor PCC’s famous Lancer
Band.
His acceptance of the job came
after Daniel Heistand’s resigna¬
tion last semester to accept a job
at Cal State Chico.
Dr. Coy brings to PCC a power¬
ful background of musical exper¬
ience, including 17 years of teach¬
ing at such schools as Kansas
State (acting director), South¬
western, UCLA (in the Universi¬
ty Elementary School), and three
years in the public schools at
Lyons, Kan.
He has also played in the Matt
Betton Jazz Band (affiliated with
Stan Kenton) and in the Army.
Three degrees highlighted his
years at Kansas State University,
including a bachelor of music ed¬
ucation, bachelor of business,
and a masters in music educa¬
tion.
From Kansas State he went to
UCLA where he earned a doctor¬
ate in Music Education.
His specialty is the woodwind
family of instruments and more
specifically, the clarinet.
About possible changes in the
band, he said that there would
only be one. This will be the ini¬
tiation of a new style of shorter,
higher step.
To be introduced after the foot¬
ball season, this will add a great
degree of showmanship to the
band and increase its versatility.
The do-or-die testing of the step
will be in the Rose Parade, 1968,
where it will be interchanged
with the standard military step.
On the Tournament of Roses
Parade, Dr. Coy quipped, “Where
else could I get an audience of
101,000,000 people?”
The band itself is quite an or¬
ganization. Every year, as well
as being the official Tournament
Band, it frequently takes an ex¬
tended tour to different parts of
the country.
In the past it has gone to Vic¬
toria, B.C., twice, Arizona, San
Francisco, and in 1961 it opened
the Seattle World Fair. Next se¬
mester the band is going to Ha¬
waii on a concert tour.
Dr. Coy said that there is still
room for new members, especial¬
ly for people who specialize in the
low brass insturments. Anyone
interested should contact him in
the band room at noon.

Anthony Georgilos. Dr. John
Gregory. Kenneth Johnson. Sid¬
ney Orloff.
Names ring a bell? If not now,
they soon will, because these four
gentlemen are teaching what is
fast becoming one of the most
popular courses at PCC — telecom¬
munications.
What is telecommunications?
Available to all students, this
course is designed for those who
want experience in the exciting
world of radio and television.
Operating with professional stu¬
dio equipment, Johnson and Or¬
loff deal with the technical side
of television — audio and video.
Students gain practical experience
as engineers, sound men, floor
managers and cameramen.
GEORGILOS and Dr. Gregory,
on the other hand, instruct in pro¬
graming and production, with em¬
phasis on directing, producting,
hosting and acting. New courses
in television include television
production and programing and
television and radio writing.
The additional courses augment
the present radio curriculum.
PCC’s own KPCS (89.3) has
gained acclaim as an award¬
winning station. It is probable
that next spring KPCS will be
operating at 4,000 watts.
While enrolled in the telecom¬
munications course, radio stu¬
dents broadcast sports events and
the television department tapes
Clubs to Attract
More Students
If you have been thinking of
joining a club or two, but can’t
make up your mind which one,
next Tuesday, will be the day to
decide.
The Inter-Club Council (ICC)
is sponsoring a Student Organi¬
zation Day Open House, also
known as Club Day, at noon on
the Campus Center Patio.
Purpose of this special day is
five-fold. Various groups prepare
exhibits to show the worthiness
of clubs and organizations on
campus.
Members of the student body
are given a chance to see what
fine work the organizations do.
People are given a chance to
see outstanding clubs actually per¬
forming.
Different organizations are gi¬
ven a chance to participate them¬
selves, if anyone has enough cour¬
age to do so.
Finally, the ICC allows the ma¬
jor civic groups, such as the Ki-
wanis and the Chamber of Com¬
merce, along with the Police and
Fire departments be represented.
Take advantage of Club Day to
become acquainted with the ma¬
ny organizations at PCC.
games and practices for later
replay.
ALSO during the year, 20 half-
hour programs are produced for
SCOPE, a program airing on
KABC-TV. Faculty and students
are featured.
The curriculum for telecom¬
munications is twofold: to train
students for immediate employ¬
ment upon graduation, and to
offer transferrable units to a
state college or a university (for
those desiring further education).
As a rule, placement of PCC
graduates is high and the success
of transfer students “is phenom¬
enal.”
Those interested in enrolling
should inquire in 4C.
ASB Board
is Seietfed
in Setref
Opening at 10:45 Thursday
September 21, the ASB Board
closed after the flag salute to
choose officers for positions va¬
cated over the summer.
ASB president Scott Ousdahl;
Senate president Axel Richter,
AWS president Sandy Scott, and
Sophomore Class president Tom
Coston, the only returning elec¬
ted officers, were present.
New officers are Bob Henry,
vice-president; Leslie Wells,
AMS; Joan Nick, second vice-
president; Donna Pitsarno, ISC;
and Mona Armstrong, ICC. The
post of first senate vice-president
is still open.
Applications for first senate

sions are available in 111C on re¬
quest. The commissions are As¬
semblies, Athletics, Departmen¬
tal Activities, Elections, Finance,
Music, Pep, Publications, Publici¬
ty, Public Relations, Religious Ac¬
tivities, Social Affairs, and Speech

When the meeting reopened
there was a silent roll call, pre¬
venting the students in the loun¬
ge from learning the names of
their new officers. After deciding
to permit students to apply for
the Freshman Class presidency
without petition until 3, because
five of the six applicants had
withdrawn, the meeting reclosed
for more personal business.
Approximately 30 students at¬
tended the meeting. Less than
half heard the 10 minutes of pro¬
ceedings because Ousdahl refused
to use the public address system,
and machines were working on
the Robbins Building extension.
