6B -TOE CAROLINA TIMES SATURDAY. JULY 10, 1971 Outer Space Sounds Spur Realism In Music Imitating the playing tech niquas and styles of famous instrumentalists or whipping up the eerie, oscillating sounds you might expect to hear from outer space lt's all the same to a music synthesiser Synthesisers contain the basis of all sound, according to Glenn Derringer, Wurlitaer recording artist and member of its research and design group. And versatility in music is what Wurlitzer had in mind when it combined a synthesi ser and an organ into one unit. "You literally make your own sound or vary it in mid note on this instrument," says Derringer. "Other controls permit you to switch electron ically from hard to soft mallets to play the vibes or get the breathy characteristics of the flute." A 25 note keyboard on the synthesizer permits the mu sician to control five and one half octaves of all kinds of sound, including percussive instruments, whistles, bleeps or a variety of effects that can be made by varying the origin of a signal and its beginning, middle and end sounds. To this spectrum of flexible sound is added the four fam ilies of organ tone, which are controlled by two 44 note key boards, a 13 note pedalboard and 48 additional controls. Included is a cassette re corder player With it, a player can record his own perform ance for playback later or take taped lessons on organ and synthesizer in the privacy of his own home. "Hours of work and multi pie recordings used to be re quired to get just 10 seconds of finished synthesized music," Derringer says, "Now you can Dixie Darling BREAD 1 Pound Quantity None tq Sandwich Ri6hts T-I „ , J? e * ter \ Loaves Reserved Prices Good Thur., July 10^^ Astor "The Best" Roaster Fresh Flavor COFFEE 2sSoo Pound ■ Con I —— n ■——— * Arrow-Safe for fine Things BLEACH SAVE24 mf *' LIMIT ONE AT THIS PRICE, PLEASE, WITH $5.00 OR MORE FOOD ORDER W-D BRAND _ CHOICE BEEF Mmm FULL CUT FAMILY ROAST" 97 W-D BRAND U.

Grandmother can entertain the children with far-out space sounds and high-pitched staccato effects that punctuate modern rock music. At the same time, the synthesizer enables her to bring more artistic realism to standard instrumental voices. create new sound as quickly as you can play." All in all, the new music maker is permitting even amateurs to call for a little wind and surf' or the sound of a favorite artist or instru mental group and get it right in his own living room. According to the results of a recent study, the life events most likely to cause depression are death of a child, death of a spouse, a jail sentence, death of a family member, unfaithful spouse, major financial diffi culties, business failure, loss of job, miscarriage or stillbirth, and divorce. Historian Writing About the LBJ Era AUSTIN, Tex. - Dr. Joe Frantz has recorded about 10 million .words from about 1,000 people in, for and against the Johnson still has a long wav to go in compiling an official history of the former President. "The great majority of the interviewees were candid, although some of Lyndon Johnson's opponents may have been a little guarded in their statements, others laid it on the line to the fullest," said Frantz in an interview. , He is a University of Texas history professor and director of the Oral History Project at the Johnson Presidential Library here. Frantz estimates he is only two-thirds of the way through the project and says he is delay* ing his talk with Johnson himself. Interview Educates "Each interview educates me for some other interview. That's one reason I haven't tried to see the President, because I get smarter all the time. I'm taking a calculated risk like you do with anyone by waiting," he said. Frantz said the historical im portance of his interviews with officials is "we have his own words" for what happened. For the most part, Frantz said he plans to stick with his initial interviews despite more recent disclosures about the Johnson years that have come from such sources as the Pen tagon study of the history of the Vietnam war. "Everybody tends to be in fluenced by what happens after they get out of office. I generally intend to stand on what everybody said at first when it was freshest in their minds," Frantz said. "This does not mean I will not ask for re-interviews if there seems to be some major dif ference in what they said at first and something attributed to them recently. But I haven't seen any such need so far. And Man H In Shooting Fatality FAYETTEVILLE - An Autryville man is dead and another man is in jail without bail charged with first degree murder pending a hearing following a Saturday afternoon shooting. According to sheriff's deputies, Bobby Dean Matthews, 33, was killed instantly after being shot in the face with a 12-gauge shotgun. In jail is Eugene M. Raynor, 33, a tile mechanic. Deputies B. D.

Long TLJ President IHI American Land Title Association Title Insurance Also Helps Buyer Before you close a real es tate purchase, it's important to be aware that the title insur ance usually required by the mortgage lender also can be written to safeguard you, the buyer. Here are some basic facts. Title insurance, available for a one-time premium paid at closing, safeguards you against pos liyi sible problems fL. . 1 originating before wKjjgfri the title to a piece of real estate is A-W. Long transferred to you. It includes a search of separate-, ly-located public records for land title defects affecting your ownership, such aa an unsatis fied mortgage or an unpaid special assessment. And, title insurance protects against de fects including those even the most thorough search won't re veal, such as a mistake in the records or a forged deed that transfers no title to real estate. The coverage of title insur ance includes payment of claims proved to be valid and cost of a defense against an attack on a title as insured. of course as I continue in terviewing people anything that happened recently may add to tome of the questions I ask them." Explaining the goals of the project, he said: "To a great extent we're trying to figure out how things got done, how you take a great big amorphous federal governm ent and someone has an idea and somewhere down the line it actually gets translated into an administration policy and in to perhaps legislation or a direc tive, and at the same time learn what the alternatives were or what the roadblocks were," he said. Each interviewee is allowed to choose when his remarks may be seen by scholars or researchers. Only Frantz or his successor will have access to all of it before then. "About half give minimum or no restrictions," Frantz said. "Of the remaining half, pro bably two-thirds of them would put on mild to fairly good restrictions (2-10 yedrs), ana the remaining one-third put on some real stiff ones (anything over 10 years)." Only a few people have refus ed to be interviewed, among them FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover and Sen. J. William Fulbright, D-Ark., chairman of the Foreign Relations Com mittee and a leading dove on the Vietnam War. There's a little bit of reluc tance on the part of people who think they might run for future national office, which you can understand. They'd just rather not lay it on the line just yet— ' What I don't say won't ever leak', 1 ' he said. "I know one Cabinet officer who said absolutely not. I wrote him a letter and told him, 'l've seen X, Y and Z and your name figures in it. Now do you want your version or do you want to be left out of it?' So he agreed to do it," he said. i W GROUND I JFEL IFTOFFISLRL SIROIJB PS 84 OZ. AAC ™ I PICNICS I 43* I SAND |BOUM YTOWEL^ FE FLOUR H JUMBO *■s I 1 SLB - 49^ FL POTATOES PLEACHES!
