Baroque Chamber Music Players
Will Present Concert April 20
Register Rated 1st Class By ACP
The Baroque Chamber Players
will appear in concert on this
campus April 20, Mr. Howard
Pearsall, chairman of the Department of Music announced today.
A newly-formed ensemble composed of members of the Indiana
University School of Music faculty,
the Players will appear in Harrison Auditorium at 8 P.M. Their
concert will be devoted to the
music and literature of the Baroque Period.
In recent years, there has been
a tremendous increase in the inter
■ est in the music of the 16th and
17th centuries. In many ways the
period is closely related to the
spirit of the present day.
Music of the Baroque Period, as
well as contemporary compositions
in the serious and even in the mod
era jazz field, is characterized by
such features as improvisation,
lighter textures and rhythmic ex
uberance.
In July, 1963 an anonymous
of $10,000 was made to the Indiana
University School of Music to commission George Barati, Hungarian-
American composer and conductor,
to write three compositions for the
University's Baroque Chamber
Players.
Members of the Players are
John A. White, harpsichord; Jerry
Sirucek, oboe; James Pellerite,
flute; and Leopold Teraspulsky,
cello.
Dr. White joined the Indiana
Faculty in 1961. He holds a bachelors degree with highest honors
from Colorado College and doctorate in musicology from Indiana
University. As a musicologist, he
specializes in medieval and contemporary studies. Before joining
the Indiana faculty, Dr. White was
director of music at the University
of Richmond.
Sirucek also joined the Indiana
faculty in 1961. He was an oboist
with the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, Houston Symphony Orchestra, NBC Staff Orchestra of
Chicago, and the Chicago Symphony Woodwind Quintet. He has
taught at Northwestern University,
Chicago Musical College, and Sherwood Music School.
Pellerite began his career as a
fluitest with the Radio City Music
Hall Symphony Orchestra while
pursuing studies at the Juilliard
School of Music. As solo flutist, he
has appeared with the symphony
orchestras of Indianapolis, Detroit,
and Philadelphia and has recorded
under Leonard Bernstein for Columbia Records.
Pellerite joined the Indiana Fac
ulty in 1957 and remained there
until the fall of 1960 when he became solo flutist with the Philadelphia Symphony. He returned to
Indiana in the fall of 1961.
Teraspulsky is a native of New
York who joined the Indiana faculty in 1960. He holds a degree from
the Manhattan College of Music
and has served as first celloist with
the Pittsburgh Symphony and
Grant Park Orchestra. Teraspulsky
has performed in France, Puerto
Rico, and Geneva and Zurich,
Switzerland, and has given four
Town Hall recitals and two in the
Chicago Orchestra Hall.
Members of the REGISTER Staff
have received word that the publication has received a First Class
Honor Rating in the 70th All-American Critical Service provided by
the Associated College Press.
Notification of the rating was
received from Fred L. Kildow, director of the Associated Collegiate
Press. The First Class rating is the
fifth consecutive for the REGISTER with others being earned in
1960, 1961, 1962, and 1963.
A First-Class honor rating is
comparable to "excellent" with the
highest possible rating being All-
American or superior. Other possible ratings are Second Class for
papers judged as good to very
good and third class for papers
judged good to fair. No honor rating is given fourth class publications. The majority of the publica
tions judged received second class
ratings, it was disclosed.
To earn its first class rating, the
REGISTER was judged on a comparative basis with other weekly
publications from colleges or universities with enrollments between
2001 and 4000.
ACP critical service judges are
professional newspaper men and
women and persons with extensive
backgrounds in publications work.
Every one is a college graduate,
with the majority holding degrees
from schools of journalism.
In announcing the honor rating,
Dr. Kildow wrote that the members of the REGISTER staff may
be "justly proud of their achievement." At the same time, he advised them to "put the new ideas

Psycho-Socio Forum Considers
Students And Policy Decisions
By MOSES KAMARA
Mr. David Hartsough, a member
of the Staff of the Friends Service
Committee on National Legislation
recently spoke to an audience of
A&T College students on "How Students Can Influence Policy Makers
and Participate in National Decisions."
Mr. Hartsough said that too
many people in America as-
Colonel Samuel McDowell, left, representing the U. S. Third Army, congratulates Cadet Lt. Colonel Cornell Fuller, commander of the Army
ROTC cadets at A&T College, following a formal review held at the
College last week.

sume nonchalant attitudes toward
the pressing needs of the day: poverty, peace, justice. He added that
many people are solely concerned
with making money and achieving
popularity.
Continuing, the speaker said that
college students are mainly interested in frolicking, making grades,
and going out of college to earn a
living.
Mr. Hartsough spoke of his personal experiences in Cuba, Germany, and Russia. He said that
many people do not really devote
much effort in achieving peaceful
co-existence among nations. Instead, only the evil things in one
country are expressed in another.
He added that students must take
active interest in international affairs and bring pressure to bear
upon legislators in shaping their
policies.
Speaking on civil rights, Mr.
Hartsough said that students should
participate in expressing their personal convictions to their various
representatives in Congress and
also to President Johnson, so that
these people would realize that
they have a moral obligation to
pass legislation in the best interest
of all citizens.
He asked the students to work in
their own communities in generating an awareness in people regarding local and national legislation.
Mr. Hartsough's speech was followed by a question and answer
period, and later he distributed
literature which deals mostly with
the Civil Rights Bill now before
the senate for debate.
The guest speaker was recognized by Mrs. Hattie Liston, who
was chairman of the program
committee. The program was sponsored by Psycho-Socio Forum and
the School of Education and General Studies. Reverend A. Knighton
Stanley introduced the speaker.
Mr. David Hartsough is a graduate of Howard University in Washington, D. C, and he has also
studied at the University of West
Berlin for a year. In 1959, he spent
his summer vacation working with
an AFSC work-camp reconstructing
a Cuban village that was destroyed
in the revolution.

to work, correct any weaknesses
and put out an even better newspaper."
Coverage, content, and physical
properties were cited by judges as
the major strengths of the REGISTER, while sports writing, inside
page makeup, and typography were
listed as weakest areas.
One judge noted, "I get a good
portrait of campus life from reading the papers. This is what a
newspaper is supposed to do for
its reader."
Upon receiving news of the rating, Cary P. Bell, editor, remarked, "Naturally I am happy to receive the rating and to maintain a
standard which had been set by
my predecessors. While I am sorry that we did not raise the
REGISTER to All-American level,
I am proud of our first class rating."
Bell added, "Much of our success
must be attributed to Mrs. Loreno
M. Marrow, our faculty adviser,
who has managed to keep our
bunch of 'amateurs' on the right
path. We are, of course, also grateful to others who have helped us."
