"Ethnomusicology" may be a
strange concept for you, but for
a group of linguists, anthropol-
ogists, sociologists, psychologists
and musicologists it means a
life's dedication to the study of
the relationship of music and
cultures throughout the world.
This group of scholars will be
assembling for the fourteenth
annual convention of the So-
ciety for Ethnomusicology here
Friday through Sunday. The
convention will be held with the
cooperation of the music school
and the Extension Service.
The convention, hosted by the
Society's treasurer, music Prof.
William Malm, promises to be
exotic, educational, and enter-
taming.
The convention begins on Fri-
day morning with a presenta-
tion of papers on the various
black, Indian, and Anglo-Amer-
ican musical cultures of North
and South America. This will be
followed by discussionso
and a demonstration of

sr, s it bers in a simple enough way to
surPrise those willing to teach it to the
less knowledgeable."

What Malm considers to be
the distinctive part of the pro-
gram will occur in the evening

promises ,.to be novel not only
for the convention but also for

ATLANTA, Ga. P -Predomi-
nantly black colleges in the South
are feeling significant effects of
raids on their staffs by major col-
leges and universities intensifying
their search for black faculty
members.
"We're going to have to offer
them anywhere from $18,000 to
$22,000 annually to keep them and,
that's more than we can afford,"
says Dr. Edward J. Brantley, vice
president of Clark College in At-
lanta.
The recruiting is not being done
only by white institutions. A num-
ber of college presidents said big
name black universities are re-
cruiting in smaller black schools,
too.
"Money is undoubtedly the sin-
gle biggest attraction to our black
teachers who leave to join white
institutions," said Dr. Luther Fos-
ter, president of Tuskegee Insti-
tute.
Howard University in Washing-
ton, D.C., says it has lost half a

dozen key professors to the lure of1
higher salaries.
While most of the black collegei
presidents contacted felt money,
was the biggest attraction, Dr.'
Vincent Harding, who heads the
Martin Luther King, Jr., Memor-
ial Center in Atlanta, says most
are leaving for the chance to do
serious research in black studies.-
Many of the large, predominant-,
ly white institutions are seeking
directors and instructors for their
black studies programs. Particular-
ly affected is Howard University's
41-year-old Department of Afri-
can Studies.
Most of the college presidents
also felt that the recruiting of
their black staff was significant,
but not critical. Harding feels oth-
erise.
"I think it is critical now, more
than college presidents realize,"s
Harding said.
"In many cases, the black!
schools are going to have to get
more money than they ever had1
before or move into a fuller ex-
perience on black studies than
they ever have," he said.
"We find that in the Institute'
of Black World-that part of the
King Memorial Center concernedI
wtih serious research in black stu-
dies-we've had no difficulty at-
tracting black scholars," said Har-
ding.
A survey of top officials of the'
six predominantly black colleges
which make up the Atlanta Uni-
versity Center disclosed they haveI
had some difficulty but nothing
critical in their black faculty loss.'

Morehouse College, King's alma
mater, said white applicants for
faculty outnumber blacks 10 to 1.
"The number of black teachers
available is considerably smaller
than it was prior to 1960. Since
then, predominantly white insti-
tutions have been recruiting Mack
faculty members much more vig-
orously," said Gloster.
Some predominantly white in-
stitutions, he added, seek black
faculty members "to provide racial
window dressing for their schools
and to comply with federal re-
quirements of nondiscriminatory
employment."
And, Gloster said, not only are
white schools recruiting black in-
structors, but government and bus-
iness are too. "They're offering
salaries higher than we're able to
afford."
Morehouse has lost one faculty
member in political science to a
college in Connecticut and ano-
ther, an English professor, to an
Indiana college.
"As president of Morehouse, I
have been approached by several
white colleges about joining these
institutions as president, vice pre-
sident or academic dean," Gloster
said.
He thinks the black colleges in
Atlanta have not had as much dif-
ficulty in losing black faculty as
other colleges "because of our re-
putation and location in Atlanta."
Gloster said the recruiting of
black faculty to teach Afro-Amer-
ican studies and to counsel black
students does not sufficiently in-
volve the professor in the academ-
ic life of the predominantly white
college.
This, he said, "is a sideline de-
velopment which has come about
as a result of protests of black
students and their demand for
such programs."
Tuskegee Institute has lost a
few faculty members--their drain
has been in the field of science,
Tuskegee's specialty.
The president of Tuskegee ech-
oed Brantley's concern about be-
ing able to pay high enough salar
ies to keep their best professors.
"In an effort to maintain our
position, we've had to pay higher
salaries than we're able to pay,"
Foster said. "Even so, they're low-
er than they ought to be."
Fisk University, in Nashville,
Tenn., says it has had no faculty
losses to white institutions but
g e t s weekly inquiries about its
black professors.
