Among the recordings are interviews with Malcolm X, Alger Hiss, Dartmouth presidents Dickey and Kemeny, and lectures by politicians, entertainers and scholars; battle lectures by history professor Lewis Stilwell; "Noon Hour" programs hosted by Cliff Ennico; and one tape of broadcasts from WDCR's predecessor WDBS.
