How can I change my print output? (System Programming and C)

Question

I wrote some code to display the last modified time and file names. My code compiles, but I need to change the format of the timestamp

What I want is:
Jul 17 12:12 2013 2-s.txt
Jul 17 12:12 2013 3-s.txt

What I'm getting now is:
Wed Jul 17 12:24:48 2013
2-s.txt
Wed Jul 17 12:24:48 2013
3-s.txt

Can someone take a look at my code below and give me some suggestions on how to fix it? Thank you!!!

    //open the archive file (e.g., hw.a)
    fp = fopen(argv[1], "r");

     rewind(fp);


    //read data into struct
    fseek(fp, strlen(ARMAG), SEEK_SET);     //skip the magic string



    while (ftell(fp) < tot_file_size - 1)
    {
        readNum = fread(&my_ar, sizeof(my_ar), 1, fp);

            exit(EXIT_FAILURE);     //change from EXIT_SUCCESS to EXIT_FAILURE
        }

        if ((fileStat.st_mode & S_IFMT) == S_IFREG)
        {
            printf("%s", ctime(&fileStat.st_mtime));
            printf("%.*s", 15, my_ar.ar_name);
        }

        cur_file_size = atoll(my_ar.ar_size);

        if (fseek(fp, cur_file_size, SEEK_CUR) != 0)
        {
            perror("You have an error.\n");
            exit(-1);
        }

    }

    fclose(fp);

    return 0;
}

Once you have your time in a struct tm you can use strftime

#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <time.h>

int main()
{
  struct tm *tp;
  time_t t;
  char s[80];

  t = time(NULL);
  tp = localtime(&t);
  strftime(s, 80, "%b %d %H:%M %Y", tp);
  strcat(s, " 2-s.txt");
  printf("%s\n", s);
  return 0;
}

output:
