THE PROGRESS IN OUR UNDERSTANDING OF GAMMA-RAY BURSTS (GRBS) HAS BEEN QUITE SPECTACULAR. WE NOW KNOW THAT THESE EVENTS ARE THE MOST RELATIVISTIC EXPLOSIONS LIKELY ARISING FROM A COLLAPSING COMPACT OBJECT (LONG GRBS). HOWEVER IT IS STILL A MYSTERY WHAT MAKES SOME SMALL FRACTION OF CORE-COLLAPSE SUPERNOVAE (SNE) PRODUCE THE RELATIVISTIC EJECTA THAT POWERS A GRB. OUR PROPOSAL AIMS AT CLARIFYING THE GRB-SN CONNECTION VIA FOLLOW-UP OBSERVATIONS OF BROAD-LINE (BL) IC SNE DETECTED BY THE INTERMEDIATE PALOMAR TRANSIENT FACTORY (IPTF) USING SWIFT AND THE KARL G. JANSKY VERY LARGE ARRAY (VLA). THIS PROPOSAL IS A RENEWAL OF OUR APPROVED SWIFT CYCLE 10 PROGRAM
