  • PAGE4/THE WESTERN CAROLlNlAN/October4. 1979 Carolinian newsbriefs Eric Partridge A collection of letters written by and about the late English lexicographer and man of letters Eric Partridge has been presented to the WCU archives by Dr. Anthony E. Brown, WCU associate professor of English. The collection, which includes some 70 items, sheds light on Partridge's "Dictionary of Catch Phrases," published in 1977. Brown is currently working with scholars in England and America to produce a second edition of the work. The two men met in 1972 in London, where Brown was doing research under a grant from the American Council of Learned Societies. They began corresponding soon after. Brown later visited Partridge several times, most recently at a nursing home in Devonshire a week before Partridge's death June 1. Included in the collection is a small group of letters from Mrs. Eileen Wrigglesworth, a close friend of Partridge's who was with him when he died. Born in New Zealand in 1894, Partridge attended both Queensland and Oxford universities of Manchester and London. More than 50 of his books are still in print. His major works include "Origins: A short Etymological Dictionary of Modern English," and "Usage and Abusage, A Guide to Good English." The collection will be available in WCU's Hunter Library to scholars doing research on Partridge and his work. Bartram Trail In 1773 naturalist William Bartram landed in Savannah, Ga. to begin an exploration that would carry him into the mountains of Western North Carolina. Bartram was a superb artist and naturalist and he left an important work on the natural history of this area. This Tuesday, October 9, interested persons will have the opportunity to hike some of the same trails used by the famous explorer when the North Carolina Bartram Trail Society holds its 2nd annual meeting and trailblazing. Dr. J. Dan Pittillo has been involved with the Bartram Trail Society for several years and explained that the trail is part of a system that runs for over 200 miles through North and South Carolina, Georgia, and Florida. Interested persons should contact Dr. Pittillo for further information. All that jazz The Carolina Jazz Society is a non-profit organization which is dedicated to providing and preserving traditional Dixieland Jazz. The general public is invited to attend monthly concerts as guests and to Join the Society if they like that sound. Concert tickets cost $2 for members, $4 for guests and $1 for people under 18 years of age. Annual membership dues are $5 for an individual and $10 for a family. A monthly newsletter keeps members informed about up-coming events. To appreciate the music and be 18 are the only requirements for membership. Syl Lafata, clarinetist from Cocoa Beach, Florida, will be the featured guest musician at the October 7, 1979, concert/meeting. It will happen on Sunday afternoon, 3p.m. - 7 p.m., at beautiful Beethoven's, I-26 and St. Andrews Road, Columbia, S.C. Dick Goodwin, Mr. Music at U.S.C., will play trumpet, flute, fluegelhorn, and saxophone. Of course the best House Band in the land will be on stage: Joe King, trombone; Tom Wix, clarinet; Tony Torre, drums; John Haynes, string bass; Ralph Goodwin, piano; and Jim Spruill, banjo. Syl Lafata is known as a musician's musician up and down the Mississippi from Ohio to New Orleans and up the east coast of Florida. He started his career during the 50's in Cincinnati, Ofiio. The 60's found him playing with Bill Coburn's Dixieland group at the Colony Club in Dayton. He cut two albums with Bill entitled, "Showtime at the Colony" and "Here's Your Request". They did some television work which originated out of Cincinnati such as the "Nick Clooney Show" and "Bob Brown Show". Later Syl worked at the Ramada Inn which is now Frand Wolfe's Beachside Motel, Cocoa Beach, Florida, an establishment which is noted for its support of Ja/z. More recently Syl was recruited by Eddie Boyard to join his Bourbon Street Five on the new Mississippi Queen River Boat which operates out of New Orleans. This is a sister of the Delta Queen Steamboat. They did an album called "Up A Lazy River" which is available at a New Orleans Club on 641 Bourbon Street. Very recently this group played on the Dinah Shore Show which was aired nationally. South Carolina Jazz Buffs are looking forward to Syl Lafata and his mastery of the clarinet. This is especially true since our very own Tom Wix has whetted our appetites with excellent clarinet play for over 30 years. « Finance problems?
