In fact, it was Lomax's idea to donate society recordings to the Library of * ^ congress, according to uougnerty. "When he (Lomax) found out the society ? was making these records, he encouraged the group to contact the Library of Congress,'* Dougherty said. "Apparently he wrote the Library, too," he said. "When I went to hand over the records, they said, 'Gee, we think we have a file on your group.' So they looked and found this 50-year-old file that contained Lomax's request to accept the society's records. "For unknown reasons, the society didn't donate its records at the time and it had been nEjT cnui W HBOt mondry * tues i 3 ut happy hour -i all bar n nite fe; j |2 4-11pm "ma i in ro> g? l .9 I, I 25f ^ Ul HAPPY HOUR $: fig ALL BAR I NITE! 01 4-11PM AL1 4-1 * ~~ | SPRING BIZARI * * i: ^ "*y 1* AN INTIMATE EUENN ^ WITH 9 tim \mmm \{ MI'I W <V w v< 8:00 pm THURSDAY o special gues THE DAWSON * 7X, Pnhli, W $4.75 With use TICKETS ON SAL AT THE TOWN 'f* 1' nn/Mnf>r\ncn n\y i IOP r*I II Tl IOrwiNOwnciL/ Df uow vyuLi THE TOWNSHIP & WDPN. flF I CAROUNA PROGRAM UNION DSC Cultui MMmrnmmmmmmtmttmmmmmmmtm ) forgotten about years ago. We had no idea the donation had ever been thought of before." TODAY THE society still collects and sings the same spirituals. In addition to performing two or three concerts annually in Charleston, the group has recorded four albums. But Dougherty has more ambitious plans. "I hope someday to produce an album of the spirituals as sung by the black groups, using the recordings we donated to the Library of Congress," he said. "The library owns the physical discs now, but we retain the rights to the music on them and have access to the tapes whenever we want it." The day may not be far away when not only the Library of Congress, but the record libraries of many collectors contain spiritual rprnrHinos "hnmp ornwn" in Qr\nth Carolina. aiWWIIBBIimilWIfflHH IHW :us LOUNGE ASSEMBLY ST. 3DRY ^WEDNESDAY ' 771" I5T "2JS S"1 DRAFT BRANDS NIGHT 3NLY! 50( A SSffi- G^ASS INIE RON -11PM OR 1 26 2' 3.00 DRAFT iRANDS NIGHT *4LY! 50* A - NITE GLASS 1PM . 9-12 HAPPY HOUR EV URAL SERIES ^ | | Orchestra fea From Staff Reports A concert by the USC Orchestra will fpQtlirA n/innorc />T ika ?
