Dr. Ramar
Chapel Guest
Chapel (program Tuesday was
one of the highlights of the week.
Dr. Tayet Ramar. Chief White-
feather of the Sioux Indians, was
the guest speaker. Dr. Ramar has
sung In the Metropolitan Open,
made motion pictures, and served
for . more than three years as a
Secret Service Agent He
В
now
a missionary to his own people.
First Dr. Ramar played the or¬
gan and sang in the different lan¬
guages, songs that are characteristic
of the music brought to America
from Spain, France, England, Ire¬
land, Germany, Italy. Russia, China,
India, Palestine, Poland, and Aus¬
tria-Hungary. He topped these num¬
bers off with America's modern ver¬
sion of "Open the Door, Richard.”
Next the musician showed how
organ music has developed since
300
АЛЭ.
The first number was a
chant followed by music from the
reformation period. He played
"Hungarian Rhapsody No. 3" which
he called “mlqd music," and “Al¬
ways” which he called "heart mu¬
sic." After a modern Jazz piece, he
ended his musical program with
“soul music," “The Old Rugged
Cross."
During the last half of the pro¬
gram, Dr. Ramar gave a testimony
and then gave oportunity for ques¬
tions concerning the Indian* and
their way of life.
