4The Daily Tar Heeltuesday, April 21, 1987 AIDS sympoOTinni set for Clnsipel HIil. Dy ERIC BRADLEY Staff Writer Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome, the scourge on the nation's health in the late 1980s, will be the subject of a conference this week sponsored by the UNC School of Nursing. The conference will be held Thurs day and Friday at the Olin T. Brinkley Memorial Baptist Church in Chapel Hill. Helping AIDS victims and their families cope with the spiritual, legal, emotional and ethical consequences of succumbing to the disease will be the main focus of the conterence. David Jolly, a member of the planning committee for the confer ence, entitled "Human Response to AIDS: Coping and Caring," said this week's symposium is unique, in the United States. Unlike other get togethers on the subject, which focus on the statistical and clinical issues related to the illness, this one will focus on the humanistic issues that arise when someone gets AIDS, he said. Almost two dozen health-care professionals and educators will address the conference. Among them are: Rebecca Meriwether, head of the Communicable Disease Branch of the N.C. Division foi Health Services, and Bob Komcschen, who will represent the Centers for Disease Control, Division of Sexually Trans mitted Diseases. People interested in attending the conference must register in advance. The cost is $70 for health-care professionals and $35 for volunteers in AIDS service organizations. In other news on AIDS, UNC scientists reported April 17 in the journal Science that they had inserted a key gene from the AIDS- causing virus into a common form of bacteria for the first time. This new development will make some laboratory experiments on AIDS faster and safer, the scientists reported in the article. The authors of the report are: William Farmerie, a postdoctoral fellow at the Lineberger Cancer Research Center; Daniel Loeb, a graduate student in microbioldgy; Carol Casavant, a technician; Clyde Hutchison lit and Marshall Edgejl, professors of microbiology; and Ronald Swanstrom, assistant profes sor of biochemistry.

Bluegrass legend to perform at UNC Dy DAVID HESTER Staff Writer One of the legends of bluegrass will bring his unique style of traditional mountain music to Chapel Hill when Ralph Stanley and the Clinch Mountain Boys come to Paul Green Theatre Monday. ( Stanley has been one of the leaders of traditional bluegrass since he and his late brother Carter performed together as the Stanley Brothers in the late 1940s and 1950s, and he said that he still plays the same basic style of music that' he has been playing for 40 years. "My music hasn't changed milch over the years," he said. "Tradition forms the roots of my music." Stanley noted that he had . experimented with his music somewhat in recent years, how ever, and he said that he had added new elements like a cap "pella harmony singing to his group's repertoire. The line-up of the Clinch Mountain Boys that Stanley brings to Chapel Hill will feature a fiddle, bass, five-string banjo and two guitars. Stanley said he thought the popularity of traditional blue grass had grown in recent years and might have even eclipsed the appeal of more progressive forms - of bluegrass. "I have to turn down concert dates every year," he noted, "while most progressive performers don't haveto do that." Stanley .also said that tradi tional bluegrass was having a greater influence on country 1 music performers. Country music star Ricky Skaggs used to play with the Clinch Mountain Boys, for example, and Stanley noted that Skaggs had remained close to his musical roots. "Ricky Skaggs still performs traditional music," he said, "but he's moved - it up and put a beat to it." Stanley is a native of the Virginia mountains, but he said that fie got to play in North Carolina several times a year. Stanley has played in Chapel Hill before in a joint concert with the Red Clay Ramblers, and he said that he was glad to be able to play again for the large number of traditional music fans who live in the Chapel Hill area. Ralph Stanley and the Clinch Mountain; Boys will perform Monday at 8 p.m. in Paul Green Theatre. Call 962-1121 for ticket information.
