LEWIS WOODWARD

For Howard Payne
On February 12, Mr. Lewis
Woodward, associate professor of
music, gave a German Lieder con-
cert at Howard Payne College in
Brqwmvood. He was accompanied
by his wife, Shirley, at the piano.
' The Woodwards were invited tp
Howard Payne by .the college music
department there. A regular Wed-
nesday afternoon concert hour is
.fin Howard Payne's permanent sch-
edule.
Mr. Woodward sang the German
Lieder m;t form. Selections were
token from composers Franz Schu-
bert, Hugo Wolf, and Richard
Strauss.
Immediately -following the re-
cital, a question and answer period
was ,held by both Mr. and Mrs.
Woodward. Mr. Woodward dis-
cussed the art .and technique of
singing .German Lieder. Mra.
Woodward discussed and demon-
strated the pianist's view of this
.art form. The liiain discourse of
the question anil answer period
was the ways in which the pre-
sentation of this art form in Amer-
ica differs from that in Europe.
Both artists spent the summer
of 1961 in study at the Mozarteum
School of Music in Salzburg, Aus-
tria. For fourteen months they
were on leave of absence from

ing in the Vienna Academy of

concerts in such music centers as
Bonn, Salzburg, Stuttgart, Vienna,
and Wiesbaden.
While in Brownwood, Mr. and
Mrs, Woodward were the house-
guests of their friends, Dr. and
Mrs. H. Grady Harlan.

ington State College on March 2

partments for the Council to ap-
propriate tho necessary amount
to make the production of "Okla-
homa!" possible, a motion was
made and passed to this effect.

Council completed the funds
which were needed to bring this
totally new program to Tarleton.

voted on a motion to turn the
formerly Council-sponsored week-
ly dances over to the Dance Com-
mittee of the Tarleton Center.

pose of co-ordinating and plan-
ning dances for the student body

weekly dances could be handled
more efficiently by this committee
and voted accordingly.

Davis, director of the Tarleton
Center, attended the meeting and
spoke to the Council on the fun-
ctions of the various committees

Center. Also, he made general

tion of it.

Future teachers at East Texas
State College observe teaching
methods via a closed circuit tele-
vision system. The system was
established to ease the problem of
overcrowding the classrooms of
the local elementary schools with
teacher trainees.
In the past, education students
had to visit the school in order to
observe the teaching methods.
However, the education cjassea
at East Texas have outgrown this
method of observation. Several
rooms of the elementary schools
have been wired for telecasting,
giving a selection of grade levels
to observe. Only authorized per-
sons are allowed in the classroom
during a telecast, in order to pre-
vent the education students from
getting confused. Dr. Betty John-
son, head of trie education depart-
ment, keeps in constant contact
with the student operators at the
school. Contact is kept by way of
an intercommuications system.
The television signal comes
from day school by way of a
specially designed cable. The sign-
al is received in an audio-visual
jstudio, and from there is sent to
the various observation rooms.
TCU
In April, thirty-nine TCU stu-
dents will leave for New York
City, where they are to work for
Six Flags Over Texas, at the
World's Fair.
The students will leave by char-
tered plane April 10, and will re-
main six months. All of the stu-
dents plan to see as much of New
York City as possible. Though
they will miss some school, they
think the trip will be a worthwhile
experience.
The sttudents will earn about
$100 per week, working as bus-
boys, waiters, or in similar posi-
tions.
