Roger Merriman's hair (1) stood on end Monday night as his name was bandied about on the all night program on Station WAAB, causing the master of Eliot House no end of distress.

Three times his name was mentioned on the program as requesting choice selections, and a comment from the announcer to "stick with us, old boy" was elicited before the irate pedagogue took matters into his own hands and requested the station to stop using his name on the broadenet without his permission.

It all started when a trio of students worn out with the reading period and exhilarated by a bottle of 15-year-old Scotch, so our anonymous source reports, decided to phone in to the station. "This is Roger Merriman of Cambridge," said one of them, "and I'd like to hear "I Don't want to Make History.'"

The station found that they didn't have that number, but the name of Roger Merriman went forth as one of the club. Again the group phoned in using the name of the perennial Freshman mentor. This time it was "I'm a Ding Dong Daddy From Duman" that "Roger Merriman" requested. Again there was no response.

Things were getting pretty desperate. Finally came the request for "I Don't Want to Go to Bed." "Well, well," said the announcer, "Roger Merriman voices a cheerful complaint "I Don't Want to Go to Bed.' Well, stick with us, old boy. Sorry we haven't your record."

At this point the good Mr. Merriman decided to take things into his own hands, and the announcer then came forth with the remark, "We have just had a telephone call from a professor. He says that some of his students have been requesting numbers on our program under his name. The professor says 'he can take it' but he would like, nevertheless, to have us stop using his name and to reprimand the boys who have been using it.

"Now, boys," he continued," "you can use the name of a president or a governor, but not the name of a professor. Are your wrists slapped enough, now? Don't you feel guilty? We can assure the professor that we won't use his name again."

The boys did feel very ashamed of themselves, so much so, in fact, that the next request they made was for the "Bells of St. Mary's" in honor of Julian Coolidge.

An abortive attempt to get "I'm An Old Cow Hand" as requested by "Frisky" was nipped in the bud by someone in the know in the station. It being after 4 o'clock at this point and the Scotch having gone the way of all good scotch, the playful fellows decided that it was time to go to bed anyway
