Drama Hour FanI enjoy L.A. Radio Guide very much!! I'm

a Drama Hour (KNX) fan and I think thatwas the program that really brought meback to RADIO!!

Ellen K: All RightYou're the best thing to happen since

AM/FM was conceived. The radio equiva-lent of TV Guide? More power to ya! Greatidea. I was one of the lucky 20 to receivethe oldies CD. Thank you.

Bill Smart of Sherman OaksP.S. Anytime you feel like running more

photos of Ellen K., it's all right with me.Never Omit Sunday

In the distant past, astronomers postu-lated that the earth had a 20 -hour day thatdoes suggest an eight -day week. When thesun's temperature becomes less hot in thefuture the earth's rotation will slow downto a six -day week. Until that time arrives,you should recognize the seven day weekand report the Sunday schedules. It is diffi-cult to estimate the reasoning for not list-ing the Sunday schedules for radio listen-ers. My first issue of the L.A. Radio Guidelisted programs I had not been aware of.

Kenneth W. Newsham of Long Beach

It would be nice if the latest issue hadlistings for Sunday. The rest of your maga-zine is O.K.

I just received my first L. A. Radio Guide,however, there is a large deficiency in it;that is you have ignored Sunday. That isone of the most important "radio" daysfor me and I sure would like to see anaddendum that would include Sunday.Please.

Sustains InterestI like your publication. It sustains my

interest in radio, which I grew up on.David McGrathe of Canoga Park

Run Radio ReviewsI found the publication useful and enter-

taining. I've been in this "market" nearlynine year,s and my radio listening is all overthe dial - both AM and FM. I think you doa good job with your coverage.

What might give the publication a littlemore "meat" would be to run independentreviews of some of the shows and personal-ities. Two of the things I enjoy in my listen-ing is the span of good programming -and bad talent disguised as breakthroughradio. Perhaps you'll risk biting the handsthat feed you the press releases, but I thinkit might make for more engaging reading.

Formats No Longer MysteryAt last a radio magazine that is interest-

ing and useful for the listener. For the firsttime I can read about radio stations aroundL.A. County that I never heard before. Yougive the station format, which until nowhas been a mystery to me. Radio is still animportant entertainment and news medi-um, especially to those like me that spendmost of their time in their cars and officesaway from home.

EDITORIAL: Eye on the NewtBY KEN KRAMER

O.K., I'll admit it. I'm a Democrat - afact I mention only to save whatever taxdollars the GOP might spend to investigatemy background.

You see, I must rise in defense of (gasp!)public broadcasting!

While thoughtful folks have been nap-ping, the country has gone through anupheaval of voter fear and rage, and abunch of very strange people have takenpower. The oddest of the pack is NewtGingrich, a self-appointed guardian ofAmerican wholesomeness, whose plan toturn this country around involves killing offsuch wicked influences as National PublicRadio and its notorious cousin, the dread-ed PBS!

pprently gays, non-Christians, liberals andother objects of statehatred have been gettinga little too much expo-sure on NPR and PBS to

suit this newt, and his shaky world is beingthreatened in ways a therapist could bestexplain.

In more reasonable times, somebodylike Newt Gingrich would rightly belaughed into political impotence. After all,isn't this the same man who brays aboutthe evils of "political correctness"? Surelyhe wouldn't impose some kind of ideologi-cal test on the content of our nation's pub-licly -funded broadcast system. We'd howlat such hypocrisy.

But alas, good people have been toopreoccupied with day-to-day survival, Iguess, and the inmates have taken overthe asylum. Gingrich is speaker of thehouse and the battle is joined. The"enemy" has become a radio system large-ly sustained by overworked volunteers andits television counterpart that has pro-duced such liberal icons as Barney thedinosaur, Big Bird and William F. Buckley.

While I hate to use the expression, youhave to wonder if Gingrich and his bandmaybe "just don't get it." Maybe he reallybelieves that the only ideas that are worth-while are the ones that make money.Perhaps he honestly thinks that commercial

broadcasting is doing a fine job of inform-ing, uplifting and educating. It's just possiblethat he earnestly wishes for nothing morethan a system that caters to the whims ofthe marketplace and encourages fear, super-stition, xenophobia and prejudice.

When Congress established publicbroadcasting, it understood that a healthydemocracy depends on access to ideasthat are sometimes unpopular.Commercial radio and TV do some thingsvery well, but if the only art we areexposed to is "safe" art, the only music wecan hear is "popular" music, and the onlydrama, film and documentary we can seeis that which celebrates the status quo,we're in big trouble!

Some of my more cynicalfriends suspect that Gingrichis motivated by simplegreed. They point out thathe signed a big book dealwith Rupert Murdoch, an

Australian broadcast king who wants toexpand his commercial empire into theU.S. If the public radio and television sys-tem were to go belly -up here, it might cre-ate a sudden glut of cheap and availablefrequencies for his new best pal.

I, on the other hand, like to think that ifGingrich were so transparently corrupt, thepress would have a field day! But then I amreminded that commercial media is other-wise preoccupied just now, and publicbroadcasting would likely be too cowed todare.

So, folks, I guess it's up to usto decide what is motivatingol' Newt and how longwe're willing to let it contin-ue. One thing is certain. Hewill, if allowed, scuttle our

precious alternative broadcast system infavor of what's commercially available. Andhe will move on from there to demonize,demoralize and dismantle other publicinstitutions that do not suit his personal lik-ing.

Ken Kramer grew up listening to L.A.radio. He has worked in public and commer-cial broadcasting for many years and consid-ers himself a friend of both.

Not only does KIIS morning personal-ity Ellen K have nice pipes. but she's gotthe body to match. The hit music jockwill drop her mike and her clothes for the"Women of Radio" section in theSeptember issue of Playboy.

"I had a great time," she said. "It wasa really fun experience. A lot of the exec-utives at Playboy are women, and theywere really cool. I lost all my nervous-ness when I walked in the door to beginthe shoot, because they made me feelvery comfortable about it. I never hadany desire to do this kind of thing, butnow I'm glad I did it." How's theNastyman gonna top that?

More 'All Things Considered'National Public Radio will expand its

90 -minute evening news magazine, "AllThing Considered," to two hours in June.This fall, the program will begin one hourearlier, at 4 p.m. (EST). News VPWilliam E. Buzenberg described theNPR programming change as "one of themost important since 'Morning Edition'went on the air 15 years ago." "AllThings Considered," which began in1971, draws six million listeners a week,and member stations have clamored for

an expanded show for some time. Theearlier time allows East Coast stations toreach a larger drive -time audience. NPRpromises to increase its coverage of localissues by sending its Washington -basedcorrespondents out on the road.

KNAC Fades to BlackThe station dedicated to "pure rock"

and offering the coolest black and whiteT-shirts signed off Feb. 15 after playing"Fade to Black" by Metallica. LiebermanBroadcasting, which acquired the stationlast fall, decided to stop serving metalheads in favor of a Spanish format.Through the years, KNAC fans have car-ried more than two million bumper stick-ers to the ends of the world, includingthe Great Wall of China. KNAC was thefirst commercial radio station to playGuns N' Roses. The 10,500 -watt rocker'sin -your -face attitude was exemplified bytheir slogan: "KNAC is not your father'srock 'n' roll station -it is the station thatsticks to the roof of your car."

L.A. Radio's Billing HitsHalf -Billion

Los Angeles radio station ad revenueswere estimated to have hit $503 millionfor 1994, according to a report recentlyissued by the Southern CaliforniaBroadcasters' Association. That's 15 per-cent ahead of No. 2 New York and keepsL.A. firmly in the No. 1 spot as thenation's premier radio market (in termsof billing). Among individual stationsranked nationwide, KABC came in atNo.3 with $31 million for the year; KOSTwas No. 6 with $29.8; and KRTH was atNo. 9 with $27.2. (No.I was Chicago'sWGN-AM with $37.5 million). Overall,Southern California radio revenuesincreased by 9.4 percent last year. Notbad for a recession.

KGRB Restores Big BandKGRB (AM 900) upper management

fired operations manager Steve Ray inJanuary after he failed to revamp the sta-tion and to attract a bigger audience. Raychanged the format from big band toadult standards last fall. The adulteratedsound apparently did not go over wellwith listeners. According to insiders, thestation lacked the resources to promotethe new format. A programming servicein Seattle supplied the music. Rayremoved the studio turntables to keepthe deejays from playing selections fromthe vinyl archives in the KGRB library.Now the turntables are back, and withthem the old big band stuff.

"All the jocks here are just awesome,"she said, trying not to sound too excited."I can't honestly say that I feel one [dee-jay] is any better at playing music thanthe rest."

Before landing the high -profile posi-tion, she worked in the record industry atEMI for three years and then for aboutnine months at RCA. Now just 24 yearsold, Worden does not sweat the competi-tion in the No. 2 radio market.

"We set the standards; we know whatwe want," she asserted.

Who are the competitors for the"world-famous" KROQ?

"We watch MTV," admitted Worden.She noted that the newly reformattedKLOS, is "trying to get a younger audi-ence [by] playing a lot of '80s KROQhits."

Her favorite new bands are Elasticaand Better Than Ezra.

Master of the Eclectic Universe

The host of KCRW's "MorningBecomes Eclectic" doesn't look just nowlike one of L.A.'s most influential deejays.

Casually dressed and unpre-suming, Chris Douridas istrying to coax somethingbesides shrugs and gruntsout of his guest, pop anti -icon Beck, who has just

been nominated for a Grammy.Douridas is reading Beck a list of the

other nominees for best male rock perfor-mance: Bruce Springsteen, Neil Young,Peter Gabriel, Van Morrison. But Beckdoesn't seem as overawed as Douridasby the names.

"I'm sort of the water boy in the heavyhitters," Beck remarked, deadpan, beforehunkering over his guitar once again fora Johnny Cash -like ditty to whichDouridas listens intently, eyes closed, hishands cupped over his headset.

Later in the broadcast, though stilllaconic in his replies, Beck begins towarm up to the Q & A that Douridasworks in between songs. By the end ofthe show he is volunteering anecdotes,showing an expansiveness belied by suchlyrics as "I have nothing to say; mytongue is barely there." The perfor-mance/interview is a success.

At one point, the musician paused andasked for a glass of water.

"Do you have a water boy or a watergirl?" the guest asked.

"Sure, a water boy for a water boy,"Douridas replied slyly.

The Beck set demonstrates thebreadth - and the sneakiness - ofDouridas' talent. The host often exhibitsunfailing graciousness, even humility,without succumbing to sheer fawning.

Yet graciousness by itself would notbe enough to win over a guest like Beck.Douridas is also intuitive, deceptivelyknowledgeable and unafraid to do things- like swallow a few seconds of dead air,

or play along with a performer's idiosyn-crasies - to bring the best out of hisguest.

The interview is telling for one otherreason. It is not the first time Beck hasbeen in the studio. With his nose for tal-ent, Douridas was instrumental in has-tening Beck's unlikely ascent on the popcharts, giving early exposure to the song"Loser" that eventually got him theG rallinly

ouridas' coupling of dis-parate skills - instinctand preparation, ingenu-ousness and wit - havegarnered him the respectof his guests, colleagues

and listeners, making "Morning BecomesEclectic" one of the most successful non-commercial programs in the country. Asboth a coveted gateway for breakingartists and a haven for musical genresthat don't fit any commercial niche,Douridas' show, and others that he haslaunched as the station's music director,have helped make KCRW a giant in pub-lic radio.

Surprising, since Douridas has onlybeen at the helm for four years.

Although many listeners now associ-ate the show with Douridas, Isabel Holt(now with KPCC) launched "MorningBecomes Eclectic" 12 years ago. TomSchnabel, host of the weekend show"Cafe L.A.," took over in the mid -'80s.When he quit as music director in 1990,the station's brass began sifting throughhundreds of applicants from around thecountry to find a replacement. After alengthy trial period, they chose Douridas.

Sarah Spitz, publicity director and"Which Way. L.A.?" producer, who had ahand in the hiring process, citesDouridas' "breadth and broadcast talent"as the deciding factor. His trial broad-casts proved very inspiring - and to thepeople who counted most.

"We had so much confidence in him,"


Spitz said. "The only person whoclicked with the audience wasChris."

Douridas noted that the showhas changed somewhat since hetook it over. Once a fairly evenmix of jazz, classical, world andun-pop pop, "Morning" now fea-tures less of the first three andmore of the last one.

At first, tampering with theformat was not an easy thing todo.

"I had to prove myself to avery enthusiastic audience,"Douridas recalled. "At the begin-ning it was more like what TomSchnabel does now on the weekend."

Since then, the show has becomemore up -tempo and less esoteric, withmore of an emphasis on current andbreaking artists. The playlist is still far-flung compared to that of most commer-cial stations, yet these days Douridasshows a definite preference for recentrecordings of living artists such asPortishead, Sinead O'Connor, The LatinPlayboys, MC Solar, Tori Amos, NickCave - just to name a few.

Has the "Morning" become somethingbesides eclectic? Douridas thinks not.Although once in a while the show hasthe feel of adult album alternative (AAA),

Director Peter Sellars as guest DI

_rataChris Douridas picks another hit.

Douridas emphatically denies any greatresemblance.

"I don't think we're in danger ofsounding [that way]." he said. "In AAA,you know the parameters of the show."

Nor does the 32 -year -old host thinkhe has catered to tastes of a youngeraudience, so as to wrest listeners fromstations like KROQ-FM.

Indeed, while album -alternative andalternative -rock stations are often morerigid in reality than their appellationsimply, "Morning Becomes Eclectic"remains open to just about any listenerrequest, from Charles Ives to ThrobbingGristle.

"Do you think I would be throwing inSainkho from South Siberia to reel insome GenXer?" the youthful music direc-tor asked to make his point.

Born in Ohio, Douridas grew up in theMidwest. Although as a child he playedpiano, guitar and saxophone, he had tochose between music and drama in highschool. He chose drama. He found suc-cess in acting from the beginning, land-ing sundry television and movie parts inTexas, where he was a theatre major atthe University of North Texas.

Radio was the actor's second choice.Since he didn't want to wait tables, hewas looking for a more rewarding way tomake money.

Like many deejays, his college station,KNTV-FM, was his stepping stone. TheUniversity of North Texas, he pointedout, was "a huge music school," the firstin the nation with its own jazz program.

After college, at KERA-FM in Dallas,he and a couple of former classmates


changed the format from cld,sical/jazz toeclectic. When the station began to slideinto AAA several years later, Douridasknew it was time to leave.

In May of 1990 he headed to LosAngeles - the perfect place to pursue hisdual interests of radio and acting. After abrief job search, he managed to get hisfoot in the door at KUSC-FM. With deejayJim Svejda out ill, Douridas substitutedfor six months, putting his former experi-ence spinning classical music to use.When the KCRW opportunity came at theend of the year, Douridas grabbed it.

As music director of the station,Douridas' influence immediately wentwell beyond the 9 -to -12 weekday timeslot of "Morning Becomes Eclectic."

"I was looking for a station that was aprecursor to Triple A," he explained. "Buteven at KCRW, there were some gaps Ithought we could fill."

He sensed an opportunity to reach awider audience without abandoning theeclectic format.

Since coming to the station, he hashired several deejays whose own showshave developed their following. LizaRichardson, whom Douridas has knownsince his days in Texas, made "Man inthe Moon" a popular nighttime programoffering a mixture of (mostly overlap-ping) spoken word and international popand rock. She now hosts a show onweekends called "Total Eclipse."

Other Douridas recruits include JasonBentley, whose "Metropolis" bringsweeknight prime -time listeners a gooddose of acid jazz, hiphop and other most-ly danceable miscellany; and TriciaHalloran, host of "Brave New World," ashow that features "alternative" rock inthe truest sense of the word - tunes thathaven't (in most cases) yet cracked theTop 40.

The music director also staged arather large coup when he arranged asatellite exchange with France.Americans heard Paris' vaunted "RadioNova" for the first time; and he sent four

KCRW shows, including "MorningBecomes Eclectic," to France.

His success has not come withoutsome snags. A few months ago, the sta-tion caught criticism from some listenersfor canceling "The African Beat" - aweekend show focusing on African music- in favor of "Total Eclipse."

Douridas described the cancellationas "an executive decision, a collectivedecision," and noted that KCRW is nolonger a block -formatted station. He seesthe station evolving into a slightly differ-ent creature than before, one in whichthe different shows that air go "throughthe filter of eclectic music."

Despite Douridas' position of influ-ence within the station, the show

ducer of "Morning Becomes Eclectic"


"Do you think I would be th

ing in Sainkho from south

Siberia to reel in some GenXer

remains his signature. In a way,"Morning Becomes Eclectic" is the moth-ershow from which the others on the sta-tion draw varying degrees of sustenance.For example, it is not uncommon to hearpieces from his show on "Metropolis" or"Total Eclipse." By the same token,Douridas often plays songs that firstaired on other shows.

At times there seems to be no music- nor even musician - unfamiliar tohim. The music maven's credibilityamong his colleagues is clear.

Gary Calamar, the tracking coordina-tor for the station's large music libraryand host of the early Sunday morningshow "The Red Eye," is continuallyimpressed with the wealth of his col-league's musical knowledge.

"He's always finding great things,"Calamar commented. "He can talk one-to-one with these artists, and that's whythey come back."

Besides his rapport with recordingartists, Douridas is in constant contactwith record executives - who just asoften want to pick his brain for ideas aspitch their own. Geffen Records has com-missioned him as a consultant, and he isa soundtrack consultant on two movies.

Joel Amsterdam, director of press andartist development for Elektra Records,finds that Douridas has a big impact onthe industry.

" 'Morning Becomes Eclectic' [repre-sents] a very important part of what wethink is essential to a young band'scareer," Amsterdam said, adding thatmany of the people who listen to the pro-gram are "gatekeepers."

As to what sets KCRW's music author-ity apart from other deejays, Amsterdamfinds he possesses elusive qualities thatgive the show a distinctive, and, ofcourse, eclectic. sound.

"Very few people have the passionand musical education in the way thatChris does." Amsterdam said. "He letsyou discover the music instead of hitting

you over the head with it. He's almostsubversive that way."

For an individual of such broad talent,isn't Douridas tempted to expand hishorizons? The answer is yes and no. Headmitted he "seriously considered" work-ing for AAA upstart FM 101.9 last yearuntil, he says, negotiations broke down.However, he is having ongoing conversa-tions with VH-1 execs about their newprogram development.

As for the possibility of spreading thegospel of eclecticism to other regions,Douridas is doubtful.

"We're in L.A. and all music is consid-ered," he said. "Most people [in othermetropolitan areas] look at KCRW andthink. 'Well, this wouldn't work here.' It'san anomoly."

Perhaps a greater temptation thanother music offers is the allure ofHollywood. After all, acting was one ofthe main reasons that he came to LosAngeles in the first place.

Asked if he feels powerful in his radioposition. he says no. Although he clearlyhas a role to play in exposing little-known or much -forgotten artists to thepublic ear, he contends it's a role of facil-itator, not kingmaker.

"I feel we have an audience withpower," he said. "I think Beck wouldhave happened somehow anyway. Goodtalent will get out there anyway."

For the time being. the young talentclaims to be satifisfied where he is. Itseems radio just won't let him go com-pletely.

"I keep choosing it, and I keep havingto make that choice." he said. "I'm cer-tainly not stuck here. It's not the onlything I could be happy doing. But I lovewhat I do. For radio, this is mecca to me."


int tilicladio?BY CHRIS MORAN

While courting conservative and com-mercial talk radio, the new RepublicanCongress may have a contract out onpublic radio.

In its ambitious plans to change howgovernment is run and how governmentmoney is spent, the GOP -dominatedCongress has asked the Corporation forPublic Broadcasting to justify its exis-tence. More than 1,000 television andradio stations around the country fundedby CPB find themselves making a casefor the federal dollars they receive to aCongress bent on reducing the deficitwhile cutting taxes.

In Los Angeles County, a fleet of pub-licly funded stations sail the airwavesfrom Northridge to San Bernardino,including KCRW (89.9), KUSC (91.5),KPCC (89.3), KPFK (90.7), KLON (88.1)and KCSN (88.5).

"We've never been in such jeopardybefore," said Will Lewis, a managementconsultant for KCRW. "There have beenfights over funding and all that, butnever a consideration to kill the PublicBroadcasting Act of 1967, which, ofcourse, is what we're talking about."

The Public Broadcasting Act of 1967

KUSC announcer Gene Parrish

founded the Corporation for PublicBroadcasting to establish a system oflocally -owned public television andradio stations as an alternative to theircommercial counterparts.

Of the money appropriated for theCPB, 93 percent of it goes to individualstations. KCRW relies on CPB for 17 %of its income, which accounts for about$620,000 of a total budget of about $3.5million.

"Without that, public radio as we knowit would not exist," Lewis said.Noncommerical stations such as KCRWalready run on a bare -bones budget, mak-ing a leap of faith into every new budgetyear by projecting that the one in 10 lis-teners who donate will come through withenough money to pay the bills.

Public stations use the funds not onlyto meet everyday needs, but as criticalseed money to forward to producersseeking matching grants. General man-agers said that every dollar in fundingfrom CPB leverages five dollars in dona-tions from corporate, foundation andindividual donor sources.

In addition, the security of a revenuestream based on government fundingenables public stations to acquire expen-sive programming such as NationalPublic Radio.

House Speaker Newt Gingrich andcompany make the case that publicradio carries a liberal bias. Not onlythen is the decision one of clear-cut dol-lars and cents, but one rife with politicalimplications. The right-wing politicianshave to be convinced to fund their politi-cal adversaries to save the public broad-casting budget.

Lewis defends public radio as gener-ally objective but admits to liberal over-tones to the programming.

"I think there's a slight unconsciousbias because the media reflects society;and Democrats have been in power allthose years," Lewis said.

The government has the power toinfluence what is reported by allowing or


restricting access and determin-ing the legislative agenda thatbecomes the subject of reportingand debate.

However, Lewis emphasizedthat a cutoff of federal funding isnot likely to make public sta-tions more objective. lust theopposite could occur. lust ascommercial radio can be per-ceived as beholden to its corpo-rate sponsors. public radio couldalso be driven by the pursestrings. whether they be fromthe government or huge privatefoundations that the stationsbriefly recognize on air in lieu ofdirect advertisements.

"The freest money is probablythe federal dollar because allthese foundations have social agendas,"Lewis said.

Not only that, he added, but from apolitical standpoint the governmentloses its ability to influence the directionof public radio by drawing the pursestrings shut. Lewis argued that a far bet-ter step toward objectivity would be aCPB with an appropriation insulatedfrom the political jockeying of Congress.

George Nicholaw, general manager ofnews giant KNX 1070 AM, dismissessuch claims of threatened objectivity. Hehas 28 years experience at the commer-cial station in Los Angeles to inform him.

"Not once during this entire period

KUSC

KUSC's Tom Crann counts pledges.

GM Wallace Smith leads the fund drive.has a sponsor interfered with any editor-ial content on this station." Nicholawsaid. "I think that's a myth."

If Congress does cut. though. theeffect could be significant. particularly inremote areas with small donor bases.Stations hit their fund-raising highpoints fairly early on and are unable togenerate more individual contributorsbecause of the limited audience, particu-larly for public radio. And with the lowerratings. commercial dollars would behard to come by even if they were per-mitted to seek those dollars.

And larger stations in major marketscould find themselves cutting back ontheir expensive, locally -produced pro-grams that gain a national audience.

At KCRW, the cuts could result in thecancellation of "Which Way. L.A.?" -the popular community forum that pro-motes dialogue on social, political andeconomic issues.

Lewis added that KCRW may nolonger be able to afford a legal corre-spondent for the King, Denny andSimpson trials. Another possibility in theworst -case scenario is the loss of transla-tors that deliver KCRW's signal to outly-ing areas.

At KPCC (89.3), snipping the fundinglifeline from CPB could mean the closureof its full-time broadcast laboratory forscores of Pasadena City College stu-dents, according to General ManagerRod Foster. Of course, programming


would be affected too, and the mostexpensive programming would be lookedat first: NPR.

On a national scale, programs such as"Morning Edition" and "All ThingsConsidered" could feel the pinch as sub-scribing stations are forced to make cut-backs.

If individual stations cannot afford tosubscribe to NPR, the Washington D.C.-based news organization may find itsown budget strained, forcing the closureof news bureaus and the cutting of staff.Stations that survive CPB cutbacks andcontinue to subscribe to NPR will haveto pay more to receive the same pro-gramming because of the reduced pool ofsubscribers. The costs of the program-ming could be prohibitive for even morestations.

"You could get sort of a spiral effectthat could essentially bring down thewhole system as we know it." said NPRspokeswoman Mary Morgan.

The funding of NPR does not flowdirectly from Congress to the D.C. head-quarters. Congress makes its appropria-tion for CPB, which distributes themoney in the form of regular allocationsand special grants to its member stations.Those stations, in turn, can choose topurchase programming from NPR, or inthe case of television stations, buy local-ly produced programming from otherindividual stations, much the way manybuy the popular science show "Nova."

KCRW volunteers raised about I million.

89.9 FM's GM Ruth Seymour fights Newt.Because of theses nuances, the effects

won't be discernible until the CPB fund-ing is determined and the individual sta-tions make their final decisions on howto react to their allocations.

As hearings on the matter opened inJanuary. NPR president Delano Lewisargued for continued government sup-port of the nation's 520 public radio sta-tions' in the name of educating andinforming citizens.

At a news conference earlier this year.Gingrich called public broadcasting a"sandbox for the rich."

He has since softened his rhetoric aspolls show strong public support for gov-ernment subsidies to public broadcasting.The CPB maintains that 60 percent of thehouseholds that watch its programmingmake less than 540,000 a year. Viewersand listeners get quality cultural, educa-tional and informative programming forabout one dollar per person per year,defenders counter those fiscal conserva-tives looking for places to drop the budgetax. For radio, the cost is only 29 cents percapita annually.

But Nicholaw insists that public broad-casting has proven it can collect moneyfrom its listeners and may be ready to goon its own after a proper phase -out peri-od. In an editorial broadcast on KNX, headvocated a phase -out period of five yearsfor TV and 10 for radio.

"They have a very solid base of upscalelisteners and viewers," he said. "Don'tignore that. These listeners and viewers


are not going toabandon ship."

And if the publicstations need to sellcommercials tomake up the short-fall, so be it, accord-ing to Nicholaw.The stations havetremendous assetsand should be ableto survive on theirown eventually, heargued.

But Morgan ofNPR counters thatcommercializationof stations that"narrowcast" toselect audiences may not be such aneasy proposition.

"If what we were doing were viablecommercially, we would see peopledoing it," Morgan said.

Public radio administrators empha-size that already they have stretchedtheir contributions to the limit and havetapped into the donation base as muchas they can. To deliver such a prominentattack on $285 million in a budget of$1.4 trillion smacks of partisanship, gen-eral managers contended.

"Why would a budget -cuttingCongress start wish such a little expendi-ture?" KPCC's Foster said.

Lewis of KCRW tried to deflect the

A House Appropriations subcommit-tee recently recommended a two-yearrecision process cutting the current bud-get by 15 percent in '96, 30 percent in'97 and "zeroed out in '98.

Republican Larry Pressler of SouthDakota will likely introduce the Senatelegislation that will determine CPB'sfunding.

Differences between House andSenate bills must be reconciled in a leg-islative conference before being passedas a single piece of legislation byCongress. President Clinton has declaredhe opposes zeroing out public radio, but

cuts in a broad appropria-tions bill may be difficult toveto.

Any decision couldinclude cuts in the $285million Congress appropri-ated for CPB in the currentfiscal year, which started inOctober.

"In the worst -case sce-nario the average listener isnot going to hear NationalPublic Radio anymore,"NPR's Morgan proclaimed.

That is the worst- casescenario, though.

"I think we'll take somecuts, but I think the systemis going to survive," Lewissaid.

UlIS .Ili; 1)110

BY JASON BORGI.If there is one place on the dial where

Spanish mixes freely with English, wherepachuco horseplay mingles with mini -sermons on education, and where onesong by the Midniters gets played 12times in a row, it has to be Saturdaynight on "The Sancho Show."

"I got mitsica para arriba; I got allkinds of musica," says the eponymoushost of KPCC's "The Sancho Show." "Ifyou want some mean boleros [slow,romantic Latin music], if this don't do itfor you, not even champurrado [Mexicanbroth] going to do it for you."

On comes the classic "Sabor a mi,"whose chaaa cha-CHA-cha chaaa back -beat and mellow guitar bring the mood toa bittersweet lull.

But only for a moment.Sancho suddenly freezes the disc and

plays an acoustic guitar riff again. Andagain. And again.

"Hey, you guys catch that mistake?"he repeats, as though he himself is doingthe picking.

Meanwhile, he and his helpers arefrantically taking calls from all over thearea. Sancho wonders aloud if he shouldkeep playing boleros. But what he's real-ly after is response: communication.

Between songs, he entreats his audi-ence to let him know what they arethinking. For a while, the phone lineslight up. Assistants pop in from time totime, dropping the latest numbers infront of the microphone. Most listeners,it seems, are in favor of more boleros, soSancho keeps them spinning.

Gradually, interest begins to wane.Sancho resorts to wheedling.

"If you dig boleros, that means you'recosmopolitan," he said.

Finally, with the calls no longer com-ing in, he feigns injury:

"Hijole, I wanted to play you somemore, but you guys are getting really coldabout calling."

It is just one episode in an evening ofspontaneous, sometimes maddening funtypical of "The Sancho Show," which canlay claim to being the only authenticallyfree -form Chicano music show on theradio. From Los Lobos to Los Tres Ases,The Midniters to the Texas Tornados, theprogram serves an array of music con-spicuously absent from almost all otherstations on the air.

Yet "The Sancho Show" is not justabout music; and its host is not as frivo-lous as his on -air style might suggest.

Most of the time, Sancho calls him -

Sancho (a.k.a. Dr. Daniel Castro) pokes fun with co -host La Reina (Molly Garcia)


self Dr. Daniel Castro.A native of Pasadena,Castro, 50, got intoradio rather late in life.Early on, he was clearlytoo busy educatinghimself to do muchelse.

After getting hisbachelor's degree fromUC Santa Barbara inthe mid -'60s, he devel-oped an interest incriminal justice. For awhile, he wanted to bea lawyer. It took attend-ing law school at USCto dissuade him. Nexthe enrolled inOccidental College'sUrban Studies programas a Coro Fellow, thenon to a number of otheruniversities around thecountry.

Several graduateschools and a few jobslater (including a stintwith the Bureau ofPrisons), Castronow provost of EastLA College SouthwestEducational Center (asatellite campus inHuntington Park).

His interest in youthreform and educationled him to "The SanchoShow." In the early '80s, KPCC (89.3)was looking for a Chicano show.However, the station manager at the timewanted a talk show in either English orSpanish, involving "role -modelChicanos."

Meanwhile, Castro and his colleagueson the Pasadena Scholarship Committeefor Mexican -Americans were trying tosolve some urgent problems. Drop -outrates among Latino high school studentswere pushing 50 percent, even amongfourth- and fifth -generation Chicanos.

Suddenly. the community leader had abrainstorm. As he saw it at the time:"Seventy percent of the information ourkids get comes from the radio." When herealized KPCC and the committee hadsomething in common, he agreed to host

Sancho balances music with pro -education message.a one -hour show Saturdays at 5 p.m.

The only question that remained wasthe nature of the show. Castro was deadagainst the type of talk format that KPCCwanted. He believed it would be too staleand wouldn't reach the type of audiencehe felt needed to be reached. Anotherobstacle was the station's insistence thatthe show avoid mixing Spanish andEnglish. a routine practice among manyChicanos.

The determined educator eventuallygot his way.

" ' If it doesn't work, you can kick usoff.' " he recalled telling management atthe time.

Eventually, he changed the show to itscurrent 6 -to -2 slot Saturday nights.

"We broke all the rules," he said. "WeLos Angeles Radio Guide - 23

don't do it in English. and we don't do itin Spanish."

Asked if he has aimed the show at theChicano community, the unique hostsays yes and no. He likens the show to,of all things, the taco: You can't restrict itto the ethnic group that came up with theidea. He reported that about 30 percentof the pledges the station gets because of"The Sancho Show" come from black andAnglo listeners. More than half the musicaired is in English: and the crossoverappeal of the playlist is apparent to manywho chance upon the show while station -surfing.

Since the "Airwaves of Aztlan" - as"The Sancho Show" is also known -benefits a Chicano scholarship fund, itshould come as no surprise that theprovost inevitably sprinkles the musicwith serious words on the importance ofstaying in school.

There are limits, however, to the com-munity activist's expectations. He doesn'thope to reach all Chicano listeners withthe show and considers some wellbeyond his reach. He believes in preven-tive medicine - keeping the good kidsgood, rather than trying to rescue theones who have already strayed offcourse. From time to time he gets callsfrom Latino youths who address him as"homeboy." His stock response: Don'tcall me Hispanic, and don't call me"homeboy."

The first label annoys Castro becauseof its political connotation. ("That's aname someone else put on us.") The sec-ond one just plain makes him angry. It's asthough Latino gang members interpret thelooseness of "The Sancho Show" as a tacitapproval of their lifestyle. Castro is quickto let them know that he wants no part oftheir world: and, until they straighten up,they can have no part of his.

Sancho's love is, without a doubt, con-ditional. He laces his banter withreminders that truancy is uncool. Whenhe dedicates Los Lobos' Motown -sound-ing "Rosa Lee" to all the "Rosas andRosies and Rosa Lees out there." hereminds his listeners that "this is only forRosies who are in school." At anotherpoint, he says. "sin libros (without books)you're in trouble." Later on, he gets inanother dig, and this one seems well -rehearsed: "You either get down with thelibros, or you end with the burros."

24 - los Angeles Radio Guide

At times the talk becomes too muchfor some listeners. At one point duringthe show, an older woman calls in tocomplain that she stopped tuning in asoften because Sancho interrupts themusic too much. Sancho, nonplussed,answers the woman on -air.

"I just play music in between myrhetoric," he said with a hint of defiancein his voice. "We have to get thatstraight, comadre. I don't talk betweenmusic. I play music between my talk."

Of course, if Sancho is (as he says) aman of the word, then Castro himself is aman of action.

Mollie Garcia (a.k.a. "La Reina"). theco -host who takes over the mike from 10to midnight, has nothing but respect forCastro.

"A lot of people just talk about doingthings," she said. "But his actions speaka lot louder than other people's words."

Garcia has seen the host in more thanone environment. She first heard of himthrough his wife, Consuclo Rey, whoteaches political science at East LosAngeles College. To this day, Garcia oftenvisits him at his other job.

"He takes the time to speak with everystudent," she said. "He motivates people.He might give us a hard time aboutschool: but at the same time it's effective."

Garcia is living proof of Castro's moti-vational prowess. A year ago, she cameby the station to meet him and sit in onthe show. He gave her an announcementto read over the air. Castro liked what heheard and invited her to be a regular onthe show. In addition, he encouraged herto apply for a tranfer to some competitivefour-year colleges, including privateschools. She is now a junior and onscholarship at Claremont McKennaCollege, where she has a double major inliterature and international relations.

Castro's energies have led to severallocal community efforts. He recentlyhelped organize a toy drive for the orga-nization Padres Contra Cancer (FathersAgainst Cancer). He has also assistedfamilies displaced by disasters. After lastyear's Northridge earthquake, he metLatinos in public parks who cravedMexican food. The result: Castro andothers launched a successful "burritobrigade" over "The Airwaves of Aztlan."

All this work takes up much ofCastro's free time. He isn't payed for

KPCC's Sancho draws 100,000 -plus listeners every Saturday night."The Sancho Show," and he spendsabout $200 per month on the job. One ofhis biggest expenses is, of course, thetapes, records and CDs that he plays onthe air: He does his own shopping. It isa task that never ends and - if he wantsthe program to sound fresh each week -is always challenging. Castro grew upwith the music he spins. He recalled atime in the '50s when "the best rock 'n'roll around" was heard on Saturdaynights at the auditorium at East LosAngeles College, when "The Battle ofBands" featured The Midniters, Rubenand the Jets and other artists that figureprominently in Sancho's record collec-tion. Nevertheless, Castro estimates that"only about 10 percent of the old stuffever got played on commercial stations."

Castro refers to "The Sancho Show"as a "church" and "a cheap psychia-trist." For many Angelenos, the showappeals to a sense of reassuring nostal-gia. Its closest cousins on the dial areboth AM oldies stations - KRLA andKXED, one English, the other Spanish..

But the "Airwaves of Aztlan" arcmade up of more than voices from thepast. Castro is free to play anyone andanything he chooses. This includes theoccasional nortena tune typical of FMpowerhouse KLAX and other breakingmusic by American artists like TheIguanas that one can hear only on non-commercial stations.

Castro holds strong opinions about

the path of Latino music in L.A. Heclearly believes that he is doing thingsmusically that no one else will. Althoughhe has nothing against KLAX, he pointedout that "they're not playing the musicfrom here" but rather trying to recreatethe airwaves of Mexico.

On the other hand, he bemoans thefact that KPWR-FM (Power 106), inmany ways a polar opposite of KLAX inthat its music reflects little of Mexicanculture, is capturing the attention ofmany young Chicanos.

"We need to have Chicano music inte-grated with other music," Castro said.

Castro himself can afford to be anintegrator. The fact that "The SanchoShow" airs on a public radio stationgives him freedom to do things mostcommercial stations wouldn't dare.

Case in point: Perhaps mindful ofthe lack of listener calls on this particu-lar night, Sancho resorts to fearlessgimmickry -a sort of caricature of theratings -driven cajolery of many com-mercial stations - something he is notbeyond doing if he feels he is losing hisaudience.

He announces that he will play"Come Back Baby Come Back" by TheMidniters 12 times to break the oldrecord of 11. After the first turn, hewarns everybody, "If you don't like thissong, check back in about an hour,because we're going to play it over andover. It's world record time, gente."

NICK CANON,PRINT DETEC-TIVE: The comedyapproach saved theday for what mighthave been two very

forgettable radio commercials for Canoncolor copiers. The hero is a hip know-it-all by the name of Nick Canon, PrintDetective. The first spot features a color-blind guy who's hot pink necktie andorange leisure suit gets picked up by thecolor patrol's violation detection equip-ment. Not to worry. Nick Canon comesto the rescue. He hits the print samplebutton on the BJC-600e, kicking on theprinter's exclusive Color AdvisorFeature, which automatically picks outa customized color scheme for the guy inthe leisure suit. Whew!

The second commercial spotlights acolorful character named Thelma Murtz,owner of Thelma's Hot Rod Heaven.Thelma makes fast cars for fast people.Her problem is that she can't print esti-mates quickly enough for her demand-ing clients. Nick the Print Detectivearrives to save the day with Canon'sspeedy BJC-4000, which also enablesher to print color invitations to the mon-ster truck rally. Naturally, Thelma andNick become buds for the long haul.Adam Kaufman and David Trim createdthe commercials at Hajjar/Kaufman inMarina del Rey.

The Hajjar/Kaufman commercial wassuccessful because it made specific tech-nical problems understandable throughthe use of strong word imagery andhumor. The Canon copier commercials

can be heard on KABC (AM 790), KLOS(FM 95.5), KTWV (FM 94.7), KSCA (FM101.9), KBIG(FM 104.3) andKACD/KBCD(FM 103.1).

On a 1 -to 5 -scale, I give these spotsfour stars (* * *) for getting their mes-sage across in an innovative manner.

ITY NATIONALSAVES EXEC: Araspy -voiced secretary'sinterruptive reparteesets the stage for one offive smart, humorous

60 -second commercials selling the finan-cial acumen of City National Bank ofBeverly Hills.

In the spot titled "Under One Roof," aconservative, business -like voice extolsthe virtues of City National Bank as "theright place to consolidate" all your busi-ness and financial needs. As he pointsout important benefits such as lots ofmoney to loan and asset -based lendingand management, the nasal, frustratedsecretary comes on the intercom annouc-ning in a progressively agitated tone:"Your business broker on line two...yourbroker on line three...your estate planneron line five...your investment planner online two...your precious gems advisor online nine...your psychic financialastrologer on six."

The commercial skillfully suggeststhat the bank has a wide variety of ser-vices under one roof and that all theother advisors in your life may be elimi-nated. The City National spot representsa break from the usually staid copyassociated with banks and other finan-cial institutions. Frances Jones, accountdirector at Sacks/Fuller in Los Angeles,says that all the City National Bankcommercials attempt to "build a rela-tionship with small business owners andentrepreneurs through accessiblity."Sacks/Fuller creative director CarySacks and copywriter David Moss wrotethe spots, which are airing on KNX,KFWB, KABC,KFI,KACE and KJLHthrough early April

On a 1 -to -5 scale, I give CityNational Bank five stars (* * * *).
