Roger Hauenstein Studies
Lost Organ Music

The fascinating task of re-discov-
ering and rewriting forgotten six
teenth and seventeenth century organ
music manuscripts has been under
taken as spare-time occupation by
a formerN Bluffton resident, now an
instructor Sn hiesic Down in Kings
vile, Texass al Texas ARTS and In
dustries colleses
The work is being pursued by
Roger A. Hauenstein, youngest son
of Edgar Hauenstein, Bluffton drug
gist and organist in his own right.
Al recent article in the South Tex
an, college paper Texas A & l,
states that Mr.. Hauenstein has been
studying microfilm editions of old
and valuable organ music manu-
scripts owned by the A & library.
The original printing belonged to the
Library of Congress.
Some of the composers of the
works are unknown, but authorities
are quite sure that the majority of
them were French. Their work con-
stitutes a golden era in organ music,
and though for many years these
works have scarcely been heard or
performed, recently they have become
popular again with trained organists
Mr.. Hauenstein copies the works
he thinks best, and will eventually
edit and publish them as a collection
Editing the old manuscripts is diff.
ficult because due to worn condition
bad handwriting, or just plain care
lessness on the part of composer or
copyist, it is hard to decide in detail
just what the composer had in mind
while he was writing the music. This
is the reason for the existence of
several versions of the same musical
work.
Roger is a graduate of Bluffton
high school, holds degrees from Bluff
ton college, Ohio State university and
the University of Michigan.

Oxygen Restored;
Fish Population
SGUed At Buckeye

Bluffton sportsmen are breath
ing easier this week, and so
are the fish in Buckeye Lake!
A decided improvement in the
oxygen content of the water is
expected to save many of the
fish which survived the recent
period of nearly two weeks when
the water tested below safety
mark for sustaining fish life.
Hundreds of rough fish in the
old quarry died and were re-
moved from the water.
Harry Tripplehorn of the mum
icipal sewage disposal plant said
this week that tests early in the
week showed the oxygen content
had arisen to 4.9 parts per mil
lion. A minimum of parts
per million is needed to keep
fish alive.

Dismissed Employee
Suit Held Premature.

A suit brought by q $6,940-a-
year analyst Of the Securities
and Exchange Commission, who
is protesting his discharge dur
ing a reduction in force, was
dismissed yesterday by Judge
Luther w. Youngdahl of the
U. S. District Court for the Dis
trict of Columbia.
The plaintiff was Jerome j. n.
Feasted of 1885 q street NV,
a World War / veteran. The suit,
which sought a court order to
prevent Mr.. Feasted from being
discharged, was dismissed on the
ground that he has not yet ex-
hausted his administrative rem
edies. An appeal from his job
dismissal is still before the Civil
Service Commission. Until that
body has finally ruled, court ac-
ton is premature, it was held.
MFR. Feasted can bring a new
action in the District Court If
the Civil Service Commission up
holds his dismissal from Gov
