eeger, Guthrie sing with students
By G1C.I SONNKR
SlalT Wriler
It was at a 1936 folk festival in Ashcville that Pete Seegcr first
fell in love with the music of the South. He and Arlo Guthrie were
back in North Carolina Thursday, singing some old songs as well
as some new ones to a sell-out crowd in Memorial Hall. The con
cert was sponsored by the Carolina Union.
Review
With Secger on the five-string banjo and 12-string guitar, and
Guthrie on the piano and six-string guitar, they alternated solos
with duets. The songs ranged from old favorites like "Guan
tanamera" to more recent ones like "I'm Changing My Name to
Chrysler." AU the elements that have distinguished Seeger and
Guthrie concerts in the past were there: good music, politics,
humor and a lot of audience participation.
Guthrie, who had just returned from the anti-nuclear
demonstrations in Europe, sang Bob Dylan's "Blowing in the
Wind." A few lines into the song, his voice cracked and he
stopped singing. As he started over again, he said, "I sing these
songs of Dylan, and my throat goes weird on me."
The surprise of the evening was an updated version of Guthrie's
"Alice's Restaurant," the long, rambling anti-draft song of the
'60s that first gave Guthrie a name of his own beyond the shadow
of his father, Woody.
There was a new aspect to the show: it was translated into sign
language for the deaf by Susan Freundlich. Her performance was
wonderful as she captured the grace and spirit of each song with
motions that bordered on interpretive dance.
Seeger got the audience to participate as well. With his head
tilted back, his foot tapping and his arm directing the audience to
sing, he not only got each person in the auditorium to sing, but
also made them want to sing.
"1 know some people are there, perserving their academic ob
jectivity," he said. "You can clap if you want to, but don't think
you can get out of singing."
When the concert ended, the audience gave them an en
thusiastic standing ovation, and Seeger and Guthrie came out for
the first of four encores. With Seeger on the 12-string guitar and
Guthrie on the piano, they sang a simple, eloquent rendition of
"Inch by Inch."
"There is an old gospel song," Seeger said, introducing the sec
ond encore, "Jacob's Ladder." "I think it's. the most scientific
song I know. People think there will be a big bang someday and
then everything will be hunky-dory. This song says that it's a long,
long maybe endless ladder."
Although by the end of the song the house lights were on the
usual sign that a concert is over the audience would not let
them leave. Persistent clapping and shouting brought Seeger and
Guthrie out again to sing the classic "Will the Circle Be Un
broken," and the audience joined in enthusiastically.
"I think you and me are part of the 73 who couldn't agree,"
Seeger said, referring. to the 73 percent of the country who either
didn't vote for Reagan or who didn't vote at all in the 1980
presidential election. "I don't think all our enthusiasm is going to
change anything until we find some way to cross over those
oceans of misunderstanding."
Then everyone in the hall joined in singing:
"The water is wide, I cannot cross over.
And neither have I wings to fly.
Give me a boat that can carry two.
And both will row, my love and I."
Turkey is definitely current bird
By LAUREN BROWN
Staff Writer
If Benjamin Franklin had gotten his
wish that the national bird be the turkey
gobbler, Americans might be eating an
eagle dinner on Thanksgiving Day.
In fact, numerous references from ear
ly journals suggest eagles were often
eaten as a main dish. The pilgrims
thought eagles tasted remarkably like
mutton or lamb.
However, because Englishmen pre
ferred its flavor and housewives the ease
with which it could be roasted, the tradi
tional meat for the original Harvest
Home Celebration in 1621 was more
likely roast goose than eagle or turkey.
Today, most people would agree that
a fat, domesticated turkey is preferable
to an eagle or roast goose. Fortunately,
the restaurants that will be open on this
1983 Thanksgiving Day with special holi
day dinners think so too.
For students staying in or near the
Chapel Hill area this Thanksgiving,
various restaurants will be having special
buffets or dinners.
Carolina Inn will have a Thanksgiv
ing buffet in the Hill Dining Room from
1 1 a.m. to 3 p.m., and from 5 to 9 p.m.
The Fearrington House will have a
special dinner from 4:30 to 7 p.m.
Colonel Chutney's will be open at 7
p.m. for hors d'oeuvres and drinks.
Savoy, at University Square, will
have a Thanksgiving buffet served from
12:30 to 7:00 p.m.
' K&W Cafeteria will be serving a
traditional turkey dinner.
The Community Kitchen, a soup
kitchen backed by the Inter-Faith Coun
cil, will also serve Thanksgiving dinner.

FLASH BE A6LE "! )
Jacques Hardre, 68, Kenan professor emeritus of Romance
Languages, died Wednesday.
Hardre joined the Department of Romance Languages in 1941 ,
became department chairman in 1964 and was named a Kenan
professor in 1971. He was president of the International Federa
tion of Teachers of French and the American Association of
Teachers of French.
He was also president of the UNC Philological Club and chair
man of the University's Humanities Division. He retired from the
University in 1977.
Hardre taught French literature and civilization at the Universi
ty. He also wrote several books, monographs, articles and book
reviews.
Edward Montgomery Jr., current chairman of the Department
of Romance Languages, called Hardre one of the most capable
administrators the University had ever had.
"He was always the kind who would take time even for the
youngest undergraduate who walked into his office,'' Mon
tgomery said.
A sergeant in the French army, Hardre became a naturalized
citizen of the United States in 1956. While in the army, he was
given the highest award from the French government, the
Knight's Cross of the Legion of Honor, in 1967. The award was
in recognition of his service during World War II.
