TIE MICHIGAN DAILY WEDNESDAY, JULY 26, cholarly Attitude' to Folk usic all Wrong, Panel Find WEDESA_.._Y2~ Oratorical Series 'Speakers '50-'l51 -- INDUSTRY INTERESTED: Beaven Urges More Speech Teachers A'"belligerent, scholarly atti- de" toward folk music is what >many Americans are falling in- was the feeling of a small dis- ssion group of folk music lovers, >nsored by the Inter-Arts Union. This attitude is fine, but anyone .o takes it 'misses the "folksy" nosphere. The group agreed that discussers themselves were lty of this attitude, sitting down :1 "finding out all about folk mu- ," which takes the "folk" out of kC music. MHE PANEL discussion agreed it folk music is genuine only en it has undergone change - erson who sings music spontan- isly can be classified as a folk TYPEWRITERS RENTED /SOLD BOUGHT REPAIRED STUDENT SUPPLIES G.I.

And you don't have to have a good voice to sing either, the group discovered. In fact, sing- ing is more authentic if you don't know the first thing about har- mony. The panel put spontaneous im- provized "jazz" in close relation to folk music, and pointed out the dif- ference between popular and folk songs: POPULAR SONGS are ground out by machines - all an origina- tor has to do is get a band to put his song on wax and the records go to anyone who wants them - for a price. Composers who "graft" folk tunes of their country into their music are running a risk of los- ing all originality and being at- tacked as insincere to boot, ac- cording to Ross Lee Finney of the music school, who joined the panel, mando-cello and all. On the other hand, "I Wonder as I wander," in 12 tones, is an example of insincere borrowing of a tune and writing another song from it, Prof. Finney pointed out. Leave nationalism out of your music, he warned young compo- sers. A composer who emakes a symphony out a folk tune does no good to the symphony or the folk tune, the panel learned. If. EDWARD R. MURROW CHARLES LAUGHTON LOWELL THOMAS, Jr. The teaching profession itself has no idea of the widespread need for public speaking teachers and of the number of such courses now being carried on by industrial and busines organizations, according to Winton H. Beaven, chairman of the department of speech at Union College. Beaven declared that industry is very interested in the poten- tialities of public speaking in- struction. Many courses are being offered to employes both inde- pendently, and in conjunction with universities. THE PROGRAMS of the YMCA and adult education societies, as well as university extension cour- ses are proving very popular with the public, he said. For many, college credits are of- fered, while some are available on- ly to persons gainfully employed in industry. One company even re- funds a part of the cost of the course, on the basis of the mark received, he explained. Chicago 'Wind Fivesome To Give Concert The Chicago Symphony Wood- wind Quintet, a picked group from the Chicago Symphony Orchestra will present a concert at 8:30 p.m. today in Rackham Lecture Hall. The opening selection will be "Adagio and Allegro" by Giovanni Somus arranged by Heipried. Au- gust Klughart's "Quintet Op. 79" will follow. Mter intermission the program till continue with "La Chemine Du RoenRene'" by Milhaud, in- cluding Cortege, Aubade, (Morn- ing Serenade), Jongleurs (Jug- glers), La Maousinglade, Joutes Sur L'Arc (Jousts on the Arc), Chasse a Valabre (Hunting at" Valabre) and Madrigal-Nocturne. The next number will be DeLa- marter's "Sketch Book in Eire," including Tern - Dun Laoghaire, Aonarach, Chase Me, Charlie; Cab at the Hedge, and Bridgind'n An- dy's Jug. The concert will close with "Quintet for Wind Winstruments," by Hindemith, and will be open to the public without charge. The type of person that attends such programs can ordinarily be classified in one of three catagor- ies, Beaven said. There are the socially inferior who realize their inadequacies or want new con- tacts, and those to whom speech is the royal road to success, he said. The third group, which Beaven terms the 'grammar hungry,' is comprised of poorly educated, but sucessful businessmen.

Liberty St. Phone 8950 ROYAL PORTABLE DEALERS The Rotunda Exhibit of the University Museums is featuring Fossil Flora of the Michigan Coal Basin for the months of July and August. "Fossil plants can frequently be found in the coal mines and quar urries near Jackson, Grand Ledge, Saginaw, and other places in the lower peninsula of Michigan. There are remains of vegetation that grew during the Carbonifer- ous period about 250 million years ago," according to Irving Rei- mann, prefect of exhibits at the University Museums. AT THE TIME of the Carboni- ferous Period much of southern Michigan was a large swamp that was gradually becoming filled with sand and silt that washed in from bordering highlands. The fossil plants constitute a mute but positive record of the kinds of plants that existed in Michigan during the past. It showsvthe Carboniferous flora was very different from, that of the present, he asserted. "At the close of the Carboni- ferous period, most of the earth became much colder than it had been, and the swamps disappear- ed," he said. The surviving plants were most- ly those with small, thick leaves, that grew close to the ground in protected places, Reimann ex- plained. "However, we know little about them because very few of them ever became fossils," Reimann concluded, 'U' Doctors To Speak at Clinic Ten University staff doctors will lecture at a meeting Thursday and Friday of 125 physicians and sur- geons from northern Michigan at Traverse City for the annual Col- ler-Penberthy Clinic.
