BARRY DARVELL, A NEW
WASHINGTON AREA HIT

Barry sang a few of his
own songs for Mr.. Pedas and
later Mr.. PedaS heard him
perform at home with the
band. He was impressed with
Barry's manner and his ma
tural musical sense, but he
felt his voice was still too
immature.
Sometime later, Mr.. Pedas
used Barry at a rock and roll
show he put on at one of his
drive-in theaters in WincheS-
ter. Va. Barry was a big hit.
The crowd responded enthu-
siastically.
Modest offStage, Barry has
a great deal of poise in front
of an audience. and he sings
well.
So Mr.. Pedas decided to
record Barry and his group
in one of Barry's own songs,
"Teen-Age Love" It was re-
leased only in Washington, to
see what response It would
get. The response was en-
couraging and Mr.. Pedas de-
cided to do something more.
While looking around for
the right material for Barry
to record. he got a telephone
call from Dick Dawn, WEAM
disc jockey who wanted him
to hear a song he had written.
Mr.. Pedas stopped by the
station and listened to the
tape. The song was How
Will it End" and Mr.. PedaS
accepted it on the spot.

identify the new music that
is now tops in popularity
with young adults.
Like jazz. rhythm and blues
and the rest, rock and roll
will never really die in mem
ory. It reached too great a
popularity and lasted too
long for this. With time it
will become a part of the
heritage of American music
another era in the music
history of our country.
Come on, young men and
women. Who among you can
coin the phrase that the pub
lie will pick up Nationwide

lar music era? It's long over

An Offer

Last year, while the group
was playing at a dance, as
Barry tells it, "a guy walked
up and said, How'd you like
to make records?'"
Barry told him the idea
had never entered his mind
until that minute. but he was
certainly willing to try if the
man thought he should.
So the man (he'S Barry's
manager now, but Barry
doesn't like to give out his
name) sent him downtown to
see Ted Pedas, who operates
several w a S h in ton area
theaterS. Mr.. Pedas and his
brother Jim also run a small
record company called Colt
As, which has been active
locally and now is undertake
ing national distribution.

Dick Dawn, is really named
Elliot Denniberg. On the
record his name appears as
Elliot Paul.
Barry'S stage name was
picked out of a dictionary
because his manager thought
his own name would be too
hard to pronounce. Peregoy
is a French pane, SO they
looked in a dictionary of
names to find another
French name. They came up
with "Darvell."
Barry's manager, by the
way, is actually two people.

Seniors

When 1 read the article
about seniors by Linda, in the

umn, 1 was surprised. She
did not say whether she is a

presume that she is not. She
seems to have gotten a COM
plete miSconception of senior
privileges, particularly the
senior lounge at WI, from
Pete Legler's statement in
Talking 1t Over" TEEN,
November /.
Her first point was, did
anyone realize what a large
lounge would be needed to
hold a whole senior class.
There are almost 900 seniors
at WI and certainly neither
Pete nor any other WI stu
dent has any idea of asking
for a lounge that size.
Seniors don't think they're
really better than everyone
else, Linda. They do feel q

It's just human. Seniors

Rock and Roll

We, the undersigned. have
appointed ourselves a COM
mittee of two (although we
know there are thousands
who agree with uS) to do
something about a situation
which we believe should be
changed.
Dispensing of popular music
is our business and being disc
jockeys, we are close to the
pulse Of the popular music
preferences of the radio audi
ence. Almost unnoticed. there
has developed a distinct and
new pattern in the popular
music field from that Of three
years ago. Each generation
has seen a basic change in
popular music. We need Only
mention the eraS of the
Charleston, jazz, rhythm and
blues, swing and sway and
more recently rock and roll.
Each phase has at one time
swept the country, only to
give way later to another
style and tempo.
Each era, as the style
reached its peak, has brought
down the wrath of the re-
formers because of the ac-
tions of a few. In each mu-
sical era the many who en-
joyed these various phases of
our musical history. because
of the actions of a few, were
themselves associated with
the So-called "evil" of the
particular popular music style
which was the most popular
at the time. Such is the more
recent case of rock and roll.
We are both of the opinion
that the original style Of
rock and roll is now receding
in public popularity and is
giving way to a new, more
subdued style of music. We
need only mention the en-
thusiastic reception being
given to the wax works of
present top-notch disc artists
such as Connie Francis. jim
my Clanton, Bobby DARN,
Ricky Nelson, Brook Benton,
Anita Bryant and such groups
as the FlamingoS, Drifters
and others of top popularity.
Even the former "dyed-in-
the-wool" rock and roll art
lists such as Elvis Presley (the
original rock and roller are
retaining their former popu-
larity by changing to modern
styles to meet the new popu-
lar musical tastes.
There are two reasons why
the term rock and roll fingers,
however. even though it is
rapidly being supplanted with
a new and more melodic
styling: First, the change has
been so gradual the public is
unaware of what has been
taking place, and second,
what is probably more i'm
portant, a catchy. new de-
scriptive name has not yet
been coined to fit the new
and latest styling in rhythm
and melody.
To our way of thinking, it
is all too easy to cite a
few unpleasant incidents by
blaming rock and roll for all
the headaches of the space
age. We have a great faith

Russia Denies
knowledge Of
II Airmen

A new Soviet denial that II
knows the whereabouts of IL
American airmer missing since
their transport was downed in
Russian territory more than
five months ago has been re-
ceived in the State Department
here. 1t left unchanged the de-
partment's insistence that the
unarmed transport was shot
down by Russian fighters when
1t strayed over Soviet Armenia.
The new denial was in the
form of a statement released in
Moscow yesterday by the official
news agency Tass. Text of the
statement was forwarded to the
department here.
The Tass statement said Rus
sian authorities did not know
anything about the matter until
they received a September
American note asking for infor-
nation about the missing plane
and its crew.
Several Other Moves

formation on the whereabouts
of the other IL crew members.
Only yesterday 1t was dis
closed that the department
was considering several other
moves in this direction.
The Tass statement said the
State Department has been
given all information available
TO Russian authorities con-
corning the plane which fell in
the area of Erivan in Soviet
Armenia, near the Turkish
border. There are no Ameri-
can airmen from the plane in
Soviet territory, Tass added.
American officials pointed
out that the new statement
made no specific denial that
the plane was shot down.
The statement described a
tape recording released Feb
ruary 5 by the State Depart
ment purporting to give the
conversation of Russian fighter
pilots as they attacked the
American plane. 1t called the
recordings provocative fabri-
cations" for the purpose of
flaming an anti-Soviet cam
paign."

cocted by American intelligence
service" and were "a gross for
gerry designed for naive people. "
The statement also scoffed at
a State Department reference
to an article entitled High
Mastership" that was published
in the Soviet newspaper SOVIET
skaya Aviatsia last September
20. The article praised the alert
ness of Soviet fighter pilots
without mentioning the de-
struction Of any intruding air.

Tass said it was "even difii-
cult to imagine how one can
palm of an article on routine
air exercises of Soviet airmen
as confirmation of an assump-
ton that an American military
plane was brought down by So
Wet fighters"
The statement also denied
suggestions that the transport
may have been lured into So
Wet territory by misleading ra-
dio beams.
The Tass statement was the
first report in Russian news
papers of the tape recordings.

Mr.. Choate said he had noted

that Mr.. Mills had suggested

Mr.. Choate then told about a
second luncheon in the spring
OF 1856. The purpose of this
luncheon. he said, was to bring
to Mr.. McConnaughey's atten-
ton a proposed amendment to
a bill before the House Com
merce Committee. The bill was
designed to prohibit the COM
mission from considering the
so-called Investigation of mass
media factor in awarding radio
or TV permits.
He said, however, Mr.. McCon-
naughey did not permit him to
present the amendment or talk
about it at the luncheon.
Mr.. Choate also said he in
vited Mr.. McConnaughey to be
his guest at a Gridiron Club
dinner here on May IL, 1856,
but that the commission chair
man called him to say he would
be out of town and unable to
