to gather something from this
New Music' concert
tops ET symposium
COMMERCE - Texas
composer Merrill Ellis and his
. '‘Concert of New Music” will be
featured in East Texas State
University’s 1980 Composition
Symposium on March 6. -
The program is sponsored
annually by ETSU’s IXpart-
ment of Music.
Ellis uses a synthesizer,
audience participation, pliable
mirrors and sound-responsive
light systems in what he calls
"programmed aleatory.”
He said, “I use all the media I
need to say what I need to say.”
And he predicts, "Someday
music may reach us through not
only sound, but sight, smell and
taste as well."
In fact, he said the word
"music" needs to be redefined.
He likes the ancient Greek word
'‘mousikos,” which meant
sound, dancing, poetry and
drama — early day multi-
media.
He refuses to be written off as
a light-show sensationalist He^
considers himself a serious’’
composer doing serious work
Ellis said, "I strive to make
an art object, not just to dazzle
people. The Madison Avenue
approach is to use anything ttiat
will sell. Then the artist comes
along and makes something
quieter and more sensitive with
speaker,
Calves, and how to care for
them, will be a major part of
the 1980 Dairy Short Course'
With todays high cost of
replacements, it is important
that every dairyman have a
program that will minimize
calf losses.
Leading the discussion on
calf management systems will
be Dr. Faster Owen from the
University of Nebraska. This
speaker has conducted
research on liquid diets for
calves. He has studied methods
of feeding liquid diets, type of
diet and criteria of weaning.
In addition to Dr. Owen, two
local dairymen will discuss
their calf programs. The two
dairymen to appear on the
program will be Shirley Eight
from Como and Joe Bain Sr.,
from Pine Forest. The
dairymen's input will add some
practicality to the program.
The short course is planned
for dairymen participation.
The Texasi Agricultural Ex-
tension Service along with local
planning committees, planned
this program because of needs

Ellis’ concert at 8:15 p m. will
conclude the Composition
Symposium. He will give a
lecture-demonstration at 2 p.rn.
Both, programs will be in the
Concert Hall of ETSU’s Music
Building.

EL PASO, Texas (AP) -
Mayor Thomas D. Westfall was
acquitted Wednesday of a
misdemeanor assault charge
stemming from a confrontation
With the local leader of the
National Association for the
Advancement of Colored
People.
The Rev. J.M. Washington
filed the charge against
Westfall last month, claiming
the mayor touched her wrist
during an argument in West-
full's office.
The confrontation and
shouting match started after
Westfall failed to name a black

Ralgro Implants
I hope by now all our cat-
tlemen realize the benefits of
using growth implants on
calves to add up to 45 pounds at
weaning. However, there has
been some recent research and
it has been discovered that
these implants can suppress
testicular development in
young bulls and heifers that
were implanted can experience
conception problems.
Therefore, not only is Ralgro
not approved by the EDA for
use on breeding animals, it is
not advised to, do so because of
these possible site effects.
Instructors pinned
Gene Orwosky pins an instructor's emblem on Mrs, Margret Walters in a short graduation

techniques they learned to LVNs. Orwosky taught the American Red Cross program.

too time consuming.

attorney, argued that Mrs1.
Miller was merely a generous
person who came into most of
her money after her husband's
death.
Ken Sparks, an assistant
district attorney,contended she
covered the thefts at Leo

pocketing - cash receipts and
entering false amounts in the
Company books.
