A: Split the field into 2 fields and then use ToDate for getting the name of the day.For evening and morning,you can check the value and assign.Assuming you have a relation with 1 field
B = FOREACH A GENERATE STRSPLIT((chararray)A.$0,' ',2);
C = FOREACH B GENERATE ToString(ToDate(B.$0,'MM/dd/yyyy'), 'E'),(CASE B.$1
                          WHEN '1200' THEN 'Morning' 
                          WHEN '0000' THEN 'Evening'
                          ELSE '' END
                          )
