Sings Gain Appeal Oilbtrf Yauth Service With an assist from two young singers who have been performing under the Cultural Exchange Program student folk singing in Vietnam is gaining momentum Steve Addis and Bill Corfut who have made several such trips to Africa India and the Far East explain this evolution: our concerts in Vietnam we met a composer and singer Pham Duy who had spent 'a lot of time gathering folk songs We would perform with him and the audiences of young people would join in Groups began to form spontaneously and now student folksinging is a big thing They even have hootoenannys" Their grants have been flexible enough so they could make a movie when they were in Burma and in Vietnam they got together a song book By HIM KLEO Good Guy This week for something a little bit out of the ordinary The Happy Instant Players proudly present a Japanese World War II movie with English sub titles directed by Ivan Ivanovich and produced by Masterful Productions Inc of Rome Kind of a internationally flavored melodrama Actually just kidding because already done that in columns gone by and so it wouldn't be out of the ordinary now would So instead I have decided to write about nothing and make something out of it all of these columns like that?) The nothing that going to make something out of this week is: records today really Now then using some elementary logic we find that the statement: records today really contains five common English words consisting of 26 letters Of these 26 there are nine vowels and 17 consonants According to my reasoning if you multiply the number of words (26) by the number of vowels (9) and then add the number of consonants we come up with the following equations: 26 9 234 17 251 Continuing on with logic if we then subtract the number of initials in my name (3: IIIM) we get 248 Now then divide this by the number of months in the year which have 30 days (4) and we come up with 62 Add to this figure the number of inches in a foot (12) 74 Take this figure and divide it by two (number of sides on a record) and you get 37 Add to this amount the title of a record by The Showmen (39-21-40) and you arrive at 137 If you multiply this by the number of months in the year not beginning with the letter and you get 10 137 1370 (Don't commit Hari-Kari the answer is in sight Now then take 1370 and add the amount of volts needed to spin a turntable (HO) and you get 1480 Now I ask you what's nasty about Well since I question on so attention -ct a to TOP 10 No 1 SongArliiti Kan Francisco Wear Flowers In Yonr llair Scott McKenzie She'd Rather Be With Me Turtles Pay Yon Bark With Interest Hollies Let's live for Today Grass Roots Come to the Snnshine Harper's Bazaar Respect 2 4 clariAed that called us turn our couple: popularity but teen recreation centers are still popular The New York State Thcalcr is filled with teens these da vs The reason?
