TO SING OLD KENTUCKY BALLADS

Miss Wyman and Mr. Brockway Will Give Recital Tomorrow.

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

A recital of old Kentucky ballads and French songs will be given by Miss Loraine Wyman, soprano, and Mr. Howard Brockway, pianist, under the auspices of the Department of Music, in the John Knowles Paine Concert Hall tomorrow evening at 8 o'clock. Tickets at 75 cents, 50 cents and 25 cents each are on sale at Amee Brothers' Bookstore.

Miss Wyman and Mr. Brockway, who have visited the Kentucky mountain region for the purpose of becoming familiar with its folk songs, gathered their ballads direct from the people themselves, and have reproduced them true to the life with all of the rough and simple mountain spirit. Their collection of ballads was published in 1916, entitled "Lonesome Tunes: Folk Songs from the Kentucky Mountains."
