Gospel Singers Deny
Jazzing Up Their
Newest Recording

HOLLYWOOD - The renOWn
Pilgrim Travellers have categorical
ly denied "jazzing up" their newest
Gospel recording entitled "Trou-
bled In Mind, backed by Every
Prayer. Since the record was re-
leased by Speciality label, it has
become a subject of controversy
among lovers of religious record
ings.
Most Southern California disk
Jockeys who feature Gospel music
have played both sides, and spoke
in praiseworthy terms of the plat
ter. A scattered few in turn have
refrained from using the record
because they claimed their listen
ers would not approve. One sta
ton said it planned to play the rec
ord and let their listeners be the
judge.

action to the recording has been
excellent according to Lillian
Cumber, Manager of Herald At
fractions, who handles the Travel
ers' bookings. Speciality president
Art Rupe, reports favorable re-
action and excellent sales through
out the country.
j. w. Alexander, Manager of the
Pilgrim Travellers, one of Ameri-
cas- foremost Gospel singing groups
pointed out: "The Bible gives proof
that reed instruments similar tc
the sax, as we'll as the flute, have
been used in religious ceremonies
since time immemorial". He furth-
er stated: "It is not unusual fol
church choirs or Gospel singers tc
make use of an instrumental back.
ground. Horns, violins, pianos
harps, organs and other musica
instruments are commonly used to-
day. This appears to be the nrair
reason for the smattering of anti,
comment on our newest recording
Certainly we would be the last
group in the world to do anything
to offend or desecrate the dignity
of Gospel and Spiritual music. In
stead, we feel that we have cap
tured the genuine cadence of Cos
| pei music on these two sides"

CHURCH NEWS
Beacon LIGHT MA

Tribute will be paid to newspa-
pers for their part in helping ad-
vance the cause of Christianity in
a special Press Recognition cere-
mony to be held Saturday morn
ing, September II, at 1920 at the
Beacon Light Seventh-Day Advent
ist Church, according to Pastor c.
E. Howell.
Ernestine Williams of 1914 E.
Madison, press secretary of the To-
cal Adventist church, will be in
charge of the Press Recognition
program, and will relate how the
Seventh-Day Adventist Church has
benefited from news coverage by
both local and national newspapers.
Special guests at the ceremony
will be the editors of the newspa-
pers; they will be presented with
a special gift for their cooperation
in printing church news.
Pastor Howell stated in announc-
ing the program that without free
dom of the press, the church would
be unable to effectively reach the
public with it's message of hope.
Newspapers are helping extend the
voice Of the church into the homes
of people who may never hear a
preacher" the pastor said.
Newspapers are one of the most
effective methods available to Sthe
church in letting light shine into
the lives of the unchurched," de-
clared Pastor Howell.
