WHRB will likely add weekly talk shows to their regular programing line-up, after a successful first effort last week, station officials said yesterday.

Station executives labeled their first talk show--which featured Harvard tennis star Erika R. deLone '95, Adams House resident Thomas M. Lauderdale '92 and the Menu Man--a resounding success and said that the format may become a regular part of the WHRB programming.

Daryl C. Norcott '94, a station clerk and blues D.J. who hosted the show, said he hopes the show will continue next year, "ideally once a week."

Norcott said he was encouraged by the enthusiastic response to the program, which allowed listeners to phone-in their questions to the guests. The show had to turn away 20 to 30 callers at the end of the segment, he said.

"I think it was very, very successful," said Jason A. Topaz '93. who worked as an engineer during the show. "All of our phone lines were lit up throughout most of the show. We could not take all of the callers."

Last Thursday's hour-long show was divided into three 15 minute segments for each guest. Norcott began the show by asking each guest a few questions and then opened the floor up to the audience. According to Norcott, an amusing assortment of comments and questions followed.

"I asked Erika deLone the all-important groin question, if she had ever pulled her groin in competition," he said. "She said no."

More serious questions dealt with deLone's recent decision to leave Harvard to play professional tennis.

Lauderdale read poetry on the air, described a mud wrestling match he had participated in and his experiences playing piano in Boston area clubs.

The Menu Man did not actually appear on the set. Instead, the host and callers talked to him on the telephone. When a caller asked Menu Man what his favorite meal was, he revealed that he was partial to the chickwich.
