THIS SWINGIN’ OF

Austin, July 13.—No more rug
cuttln* rhythm for “Swing Low Sweet
Chariot*' and scores of other negro
spirituals and plantation melodies if
the Citisens National Benevolent As-
sociation can help it.
The association, founded by Major
P, Graham, an Austin negro, has set
up as its objective the preservation
of the original and natural beauty
of those folk-tunea which have yield-
ed to “degrading" treatment.
Graham said his group, aided by
an advisory committee of white citi-
zens, wants to build a conservatory
in Austin where the proper rendition
of spirituals can be taught.
The movement recently won rec-
ognition from the senate which adopt-
ed a resolution by Senator Hough-
ton Brownlee of Austin “hearitly en-
dorsing” it.
Brownlee’s resolution pointed out
traditional negro folk spirituals and
plantation melodies, are fast dis-
appearing due to neglect and the
“pressure'* of modern life. Because
they are an important link between
the history of the South and modem
times they should be preserved, it
raid.
Graham announced his group would
request radio stations and entertain-
ers NOT to adapt the old songs to
swing time. He has sought and ob-
tained endorsement of his program
from many educators and artists.

Phoenix, Aria., July 13.—Robert
Burgunder’s divorced parents joined
him today in providing a dramatic
close to his defense against murder
charges.
The mother, Mrs. Ruth Burgunder
of Alhambra, Calif., blamed herself
for creating her son's mental atti-
tude on the day he became involved
in the slaying^.
The son, completing a long siege
on the witness stand, in which he
denied the slayings and blamed an
unnamed “pal,” sat with eyes down-
cast.
Mrs. Burgunder, quiet-voiced Ac-
tion writer, assumed the blame for
emotionally upsetting her 22 year old
son on the day he lured Jack Peter-
son and Ellis M. Koury to the desert,
"rB‘ wher^ they were shot to death.
He ^ceived a letter from his moth-
er the day before the slayings, and
in it she criticised him for continu-
ally asking for money and for his
dissatisfaction with college life. *
Mrs. Burgnder’s testimony com-
pleted the defense case, based en-

and the son. The state did not cross-

After the defense rested the pros-
ecution called. Dr. Joseph Catton, San
Francisco alienist, to answer infer-
ences that young Burgunder was men-
tally unbalanced.
The elder Burgunder objected to
Dr. Catton being permitted to testi-
fy, contending he was invading the
province of the jury. Superior Judge
Arthur T. La Parde said ho would
permit Dr. Catton to answer a hypo-
thetical question.
Mrs. Elbert Clements took her
mother, Mrs. J. T. Berry to her home

visiting here thia week with Wr.
