Peter, Paul, Mary Set Trend In Folk Music
"An angel and two cellos."
This is the visual image former audiences have received of Peter, Paul and Mary, a trio of folk singers, who are scheduled to appear on campus Saturday night.
Whether Mary actually looks like an angel, or the two guitars Peter and Paul strum look like cellos is not important. But it is significant that these three singers, next to the Kingston Trio, have reinforced the stature of folk music in the musical world.
A local record shop owner reports his sales of Peter, Paul and Mary (LP) albums have increased since the KU appearance was announced. The trio's most recent album "Moving" features such folk songs as "Setle Down," "Gone the Rainbow," "Pretty Mary," "Puff," "Morning Train," and "This Land Is Your Land."
According to a Kansas record sales representative in Lawrence yesterday, the trend in folk music has spread over the nation. It started in the beatnik villages of New York where musical aspirants gathered for street and cafe performances.

College Coeds Begin Season Eating, Dieting
Hot rolls, French fries and chocolate meringue pie are some of the temptations and the woes of woman.
To the KU woman spring brings a challenge — "the new woman." She sees herself as a shapey silhouette in a two-piece bathing suit or in a frothy evening gown. The college coed today is interested in looking her best in the newest spring fashions.
This means dieting.
Luckily food producers are sympathetic with the female and her emergent "spring problems." Besides the liquid diet in appetizing flavors, these manufacturers have furnished the dieting woman with many delicacies she can eat and still achieve that "new look."
The KU coed's midnight snack of peanut butter and jelly sandwiches can be reduced by 200 calories by purchasing the dietetic brand foods. Dieters may also enjoy crackers, vegetables, canned fruit and bread thanks to the food manufacturers who have revamped their products to accommodate the "dieting woman."
The KU coed and other women all over the nation are enjoying puddings and frosted cake with no guilt feelings. Even the coke break is a relief for dieters who drink artificially-sweetened soft drinks along with their metrecal wafers.
Couple Reveals Recent Engagement
The engagement of Miss Gayle Gibbon to Don W. Wilson has been announced by her parents Mr. and Mrs. Theodore E. Gibson of Herington. Wilson is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Don J. Wilson of Abilene.
Miss Gibson is a KU sophomore, majoring in music education. Wilson, who attended KU, is a pre-law student at Washburn University in Topeka.

around for a long time. In the South neighbors still visit and sing some of the old favorites—"Swanee River" and "Dixie."
Pete Seeger is what many musicians classify as a modern troubadour. Seeger, a banjo player, gained recent fame while traveling around the country singing for his living. He has often been referred to as "the Pied Piper of American Folk Music."
Another recent innovation in the music field is the "new sound" directed toward lessening ear fatigue. The sound, featured on "dynagrove" records put out by RCA Victor, brings the music closer to the audience. It is reported to give the impression he is right inside the auditorium or concert hall where the album is being recorded.
The ten releases featuring the "new sound" are a combination of jazz, show hits and concert selections. Among them are Puccini's "Madame Butterfly" and the Robert Shaw Choralle's "This is My Country" and Peter Nero's "Hail the Conquering Hero."
Other favorites in the musical field are the "Sound Track of Lawrence of Arabia" which one Lawrence record shop owner contends might develop into another "Breakfast at Tiffany's." Another album entitled "Joan Baez In Concert" is currently tipping the records scales in the Lawrence area.
