To Film Society
"The Baker's Wife," Marcel

JtSased on an incident in a

town baker whose beautiful
young wife has run off with a
handsome young shepard. The
baker refused to believe his wife
has left him and vows he will
make no bread until she returns.
The townfolk, rather than lose
their baker, take it upon them
selves to bring about her return.
In Pagnol's hands, the situation
is developed into pure, classic
farce.

Lectures. Set For This 3Aeek
Public lectures abound . on
campus this week, with several
noted speakers bucking compe
tition from the basketball team,
The Weavers" and term papers.
Charles Burton Marshall, dis
tinguished political scientist in
the field of foreign affairs, will
give the fifth and last lecture
on "The Predicament of Diplo
macy," Monday night at 8 p.m.
in Gerrard Hall.
First Professor
Professor Marshall, who is
the first Alumni Visiting Pro
fessor of International Studies
in the University of North Caro
lina, will talk "On Keeping Our
Bearings" tomorrow night.'
A former member of the U.S.
State Department's policy plan
ning staff, Dr. Marshall was an
adviser to the Prime Minister
of Pakistan from 1955-57. At
present he is associated with
the Johns Hopkins University's
Washington Center of Foreign
Policy Research.
"Gods and Games"
Also scheduled for 8 p.m. to
morrow is an illustrated lecture
on "Gods and Games at the
Corinthian Isthmus," s in the
Howell Hall auditorium. Dr. Os-
Folk Singers Discuss Techniques
'Weavers Will' Give Memorial Hall Performance
By THE WEAVERS
(Editor's Note: The Weav
ers, acclaimed as America's
foremost folk singers, will ap
pear at 8 p.m. Thursday in
Memorial Hall. Students will
be admitted free to the con
cert, which is billed as "GM's
Christmas gift to the cam
pus.")
"If it wasna for the work o
the weavers" is the refrain of
an old Scottish ballad.
We are not that kind of weav
ers, but it was our thinking of
them and all the artisans weav
ing and molding real stuff into
the necessities of life that gave
us our name, The Weavers. For
what is more necessary and real
than the putting together of
songs that sing truly of our
lives, our problems, our hopes
and dreams?
At first our name meant
nothing to our audic'nees. In the
Midwest we disappointed some
persons who came to hear us
thinking that they were to see
a vaudeville group of many
years ago which called itself
The Weaver Brothers and El
viry (Late Show viewers will
know them). One woman said
to Ronnie Gilbert, "I'd know
you anywhere, Elviry!" Her
husband said to Lee Hays,
"You've put on weight, Slim!"
which was a simple statement of
fact.
But in a fairly short time the
name began to mean something
more specific. Disc jockevs start
ed using phrases like "Weavers
type songs"; one reviewer said
of a song "That's like a Weav
er's song." In short, the name
had begun to stand for what
we had made of it, and for what
our audiences had come to ex
pect from -us.
But we couldn't tell you
exactly what a "Weavers' song"
is. We turned down "High
. . ... . .
Noon" because it didn't look like
a Weavers' song. We sang "The
Wreck of the John B" and
"Wimoweh" because they did
sound to us like "our" songs.
A song changes every time a
new singer or group sings it; the
song' is re-stated according to
the personality of its perform
ers arid their style. The listener
has a choice. It is a matter of
record that Frank Sinatra hit
the comeback trail with his re
cording of "Goodnight Irene"
because a couple of hundred
thousand record buyers pre
ferred . his presentation of the
song to ours.
Beyond that, however, is the

unseen portion of our work in
editing, rewriting, polishing, re
emphasizing phrases, clarifying
motives all of the painstaking,
thoughtful work of rebuilding
songs that has gone into the
product we call Weavers' songs.
Kumbaya," for example,
came to us as an African song
which had only that one word:
we added a few lines of English
to make it into what sounded
like it ought to be, a lullaby.
We may rewrite a song which
made our parents shed a tear
but which was just too senti
mental for today; an interesting
fragment which needed" new
verses to tell a whole story; a
new last verse' for another song
to change the story to suit our
teste; new verses for an old
gospel song which came to us
nly as a chorus; and our re
arranging of all the songs , to
suit our vocal needs.
This is not to argue that all
songs need, changing; many do
not, and with these our job is
to re-create them for ourselves
with as much of the original
rneaning and feeling as our
understanding allows.
We have found that a group
is more than the sum total of
its parts. Figuring the various
ages of our individuaf members,
we represent more than a hun
dred years of work, all told, in
fclk music; but our work, and
what we offer to our audience,
