The Center'S Rural Recreation

with communities that ask for the
help through an official vote of
the chapter community meeting)
or of some designated committee.
It is further resriced to those
communities which are willing to
act as co-sponsOrs of the program
for their youngsters and to help
secure local community facilities

Local leaders assist in explain

Gallup, Bread Springs Indian
School, II miles south and east
of Gallup, Red Rock Chapter

and at Tse-ya-toh Chapter House
about IA miles west and north

The program was extended for
the first time to Zuni, when a
recreation coordinating committee
there requested leadership aid of
the Center in their community
wide program. In addition to the
twice-weekly activities fer school
aged children in Zuni, swimming
instruction in first-aid and rescue

staff members in Zuni.
Supervising the training aspects
of the program and coordinating
plans were Mr.. and Mrs. William
Davidson, of Fairlawn, New Jer.

Henry TSosie. Center field worker.
Members of the student staff in
cluded two non-Indian college

New York and Nathaniel Ray

have entered graduate studies this

What was accomplished in the
rural Mckinley County Commun-

10 year old Indian youngster the
twinkle in his eye over a water
color masterpiece just created out
of paint and imagination? How
do you difine the good that COM

others and swatting the ball

are the intangibles of human ex-

each area; under the present sys.
tenn the more populated areas
with many voters can easily elect
all the county commissioners.
County commissioners do not
have much authority inside the in-
cOrpOrated cities, so rural areas
need more representation on the
county commission. =
Arguments against:
1t is so important 30 preserve
geographical representation that
the amendment should have made
mandatory the division of coun-
ties into districts md the resi-
dency of the commissioners in
their respective districts.
Geographical areas with small
err population do not contribute
as much financial support to coun-
ty government and therefore
should not be represented equally
with geographical areas of larger
population.
1t would be unfair to the urban
majority to be controlled by
rural minority.
Proposed Amendment No. 8:
Continuity of Government in
Case of Disaster Emergency
Created by an Enemy Attack:
At present there are nc provi-
siOns for operating the local and
state governments under civil law
if an enemy attack creates such
damage that a disaster emergen--
cy necessitating martia' law is
declared by the President and
Governor.

In the Spring Of 1857, a chous
Of twelve men, all unsteady gift

nations major cities. They were
to serve as background effect
for many Of my songs. and to
afford our cOncers presentation
with an added dramatic dirnen-
sion. The blending of these twelve
dfstinctively styled voices was so
effective that We added number
of solos for the group during the
concert presentation. Audience re-
action to their efforts was over
whelming, and it became quite
apparent that these men, origin
ally slated to be merely "vocal
accompanies" were shaping up
as a distinct and unique choral
group of its own merit. We de-
cided to record them, giving them
an opportunity to assume identity
and meaning as a musical group.
and thus. the Belafonte Folk Sing
ers were born. ~.
In subsequent appearances with
me. both on the concert stage
end in supper clubs in New York
and Las Vegas. the reactions to
the Singers continued to mount
in enthusiasm. Their performance
es of the dramatic and colorfully
historical folk songs of our natioon
is an achievement of great the
atrical value.
Realizing that the group was
too unique and talented to func-
ton merely as vocal accompan-
lists for my own artistic endeav-
Ors, they recorded their first solo
album. presenting the Belafonte
Folk Singers" which drew criti-
cal and public hurrahs, proving
that our enthusiasm was far from
unfounded. The wedding Of these
twelve voices, in the presentation
of some of our most memorable
folk songs, is a natural step for
ward in the annals of folk music.
These men, through their indivi-
dual gifts, tremendously blended
to create an overall oneness of
creative accomplishments, h v e
something so worthwhile to con-
tribute, unsteady, that they can
readily become motivating force
in the musical world today.

That's the report from

But the conceSSionaire
was quick to add that or
chids are still outselling
gardeniaS and carnations.
The orchid has been first
with the Daughters for
many years and yesterday
a OAR spokesman ex-
planned why.
1t was the favorite flower

KEEN ON SECRECY
QuizzicoI Daughters
Hit Lineage Probe

Proud as they all seem to
be of their ancestors, some
Daughters of the American
Revolution make a strict secret
of their lineage.
Word of their reticence got
out yesterday at a meeting
of the Genealogical Records
Committee, which is seeking
to gather, into a series of vol
umeS, genealogical information
on the Revolutionary ancestors
of all the members.
They want the data for
ready reference, as a help in
preparing application papers
for new members.
The project was begun last
summer. The committee draft
ed a form which when filled
out would show the direct line
of descent from the Daughters
revolutionary forebear up to
the Daughters grandparent.
Since it stops there, two gen.
erations short of the Daughter,
the member whose lineage it
is can remain anonymous.
Still some Daughters balk
at the form.
Blank forms are sent upon
request to the local chapters.
with instructions to copy the
requested information from the
members application paper.
Application papers are kept
by the chapters registrar and
are not available to all the
members.
Judging from the complaints
of several women at yesterdays
meeting, all of whom are en-
gagged in the form-gathering
project. some registrars guard
those application papers as
fiercely as Cerebrus at the
