Sometimes he solos on the guitar
and sometimes his assistant

Mr.. CaSsell boils down his scripts
considerably in a sort of braille
shorthand. Braille uses up foul
times as much space as typescript
so skeletonizing his cue sheet:
becomes a necessity. But much
of the show is ad lib. ut doesn't

ago and worked at Station WARL
until last month, when he switched
to WEAM.
"I learned to play the piano
by reading braille sheet music. p"
Mr.. Cassell says. Il had to mem
orize the music for each hand
bar by bar and put them together.
The guitar I just picked up and
I've long since stopped using piano
music-I just bang out the melody
and fake the chords"
An authority on hillbilly music,
he knows the words to over 1000
songs. He figures he has met
nine out Of ten of the professional
hillbilly singers in the country
and uses his personal knowledge
of the entertainers to liven up the
introductionS of their songs on the
program.
II grew up in the fiddle contest
country" he recalls. "I got my
love of hillbilly music then. ]
guess I knew most of the best
fiddlers and guitar players in the
country while I was still a boy"
Well liked by his fellow workers
at WEAM. Mr.. Cassell continually
amazes them by the ease with
which he gets around the studio.
To compensate for his blindness,
ne uses his senses of hearing and
touch.
Mr.. Cassell's friends consider
him an inspiration to others who
are blind. He works nine -hour
day, supports family and has
become one of the most popular
disc jockeys in Arlington-quite an
accomplishment for a man who
has never seen the light Of day.
