inv--A It was sometime in August when the Commanding Officer gave CS3 Cary Edelstein the go-ahead to start the ship,s own station WWID. In the beginning all that was available was a turntable and a microphone. But this didn't stop Cary, who spent many hours trying to make the station the best possible. The crew started to enjoy the station right from the beginning and shortly after WWfD s birth, other disc jockeys started to do shows which A ter it was seen that WWJD was a success Cary started going to meetings 0 'the Welfare and Recreation Committee to try to get more equipment or the station. A ter 'much debate it was decided to let the station have a ew hundred dollars which was used for another turntable, a new microphone, the parts or a control panel used to make the station a one man operation, and an assortment o other incidentals needed to make the station semi-professional. IC3 Bruno Urbaniak took all this equipment and seg up a system comparable to some ofthe smaller, civilian type networks As the months went by many disc jockeys joined the ranks on WWID. Cary continued through the whole cruise to do his Cary Ellis show rom 6-8 in the P.M. Few of us will ever forget his theme song by Chicago Transit Authority called, Does Anybody Really Know What Time 'It Is? Aside from being one ofthe jocks, Gary worked as assistant coordinator of WWJD under the compe- tent guidance ofthe WWID coordinator Mr. Ralph Day, the ship's Electrical Officer. Some ofthe other regulars who worked as D.f.'s on the station are Jesus Alvarez, Don Riddle, Bruce Cupton, Eugene Eisenbise, Larry Eudy, .lohn Wensing and Steve Hi .
