ALAN ALDERSON. THE MAN OF LA MANCHA

Jethro to he at FitkHers' Gathering in Battte Ground

The mandolin-playing half of the famed comedy team of Homer and Jethro will be one of the artists featured at this year’s Indiana Fiddlers’ Gathering to be held June 24-26, and July 1-3 at the Tippecanoe Battlefield in Battle Ground. Jethro Burns will be featured during the Saturday, June 25, evening program devoted to the performers who were heard weekly over WLS’s famed National Barn Dance. Although their teaming started in the early thirties, Homer and Jethro are best known for their parodies of contemporary country and popular hits. For 20 years no one from Hank Williams to Elvis Presley to the Beatles was immune from their satires, and many of their records, like “How Much is That Hound Dog in the 'Window?” and “The Battle of Kookamonga,” were big hits for RCA Victor. Their success landed them spots in night clubs and on television shows that were offlimits to other country singers. After Homer’s death in 1971, Jethro continued working as a soloist, but his career took a different turn as he discovered a new generation of musicians who idolized his unique, jazzy mandolin style. Since then Jethro has appeared with David Grisman, Steve Goodman, and the New Grass Revival, and he has recorded several highlyacclaimed instrumental albums. Recently he has made several appearances on PBS-TV’s “Austin City Limits,” and last month his latest Kaleidioscope album, “Tea for One,” was voted best string jazz album of 1982 by the National Association of Independent Record Distributors. Appearing with Jethro at the Bam Dance reunion will be country singer Bob Atcher, Captain Stubby and the Buccaneers, fiddler Rocky Stone, banjoist Eddy Davis, and the original fiddler with the Coon Creek Girls, Daisy Lange Perry. A wide variety of traditional musicians will be appearing throughout both week ends of the Fiddlers* Gathering, which is now in its eleventh year at the Tippecanoe Battlefield. Among the audience favorites scheduled on this year’s programs are fid-

especially the Lord.. .When dad says, “This is going to hurt me more then it will you,” listen to him, because my dad is usually crying inside and if you watch your father close enough you will see his eyes watering..." — Terry Richardson. Terry is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Wayne Richardson of South Main Street. “You might say my dad is number one! ... This next thing would take a lot of courage. He took care of us girls whenever my mom was in the hospital. He loves sports and coached my sisters' team and coaches my team for softball, and we learn a lot from him. He loves my family and me very much. 1 also have to admit that my dad does yell alot and I mean alot! But 1 guess he does it to correct my faults. He does try." — Darla Moore. Darla is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Jim Moore of West Street. “... My father doesn’t always say he loves me in words. He shows me in actions. Like the simple pats on my head to show me I have done something good or the times he just nods his head and smiles at me.. My father has shared the best times of my life. He has also made some special dreams come true for me. He has always wanted the best for family and he has worked so that we may reach our goals. . The only thing I regret about having the greatest dad is the time it took me to find out.” — Suzette Hunsberger. Suzette is a 1983 graduate of Wawasee High School and the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Rodger Hunsberger of west of town. “1 am fortunate to have both a Dad and a Father. My dad is not perfect as is no one here on earth... So, he is not the greatest dad because he is perfect in every way, but rather because he has become the best dad he could be and is getting better all the time.. .He has taught me how to work by example.. .My Father is perfect in every way. He has no faults, but he knows all of

mine... One example both my Dad and My Father have set is to speak but few words; say what you mean and mean what you say—My Father is our Almighty God. My Dad is Stan Custer. — Dale Custer. Dale is married and lives with his wife and young son east of Milford. His parents. Mr. and Mrs. Stan Custer, reside north of Milford. “As a child he was always there through the skinned knees, the bumps and bruises, the broken arm and the disappointments of life. . .Now as an adult 1 know he's still there, a telephone call away, and he'd be at my door step in five minutes...! remember when 1 was about 12 or 13 years old I asked my mother, 'Mom. why did you choose to marry a man that is so terribly short?’ Her reply was this .. .'your dad may look short to you. but in my eyes he's six feet ta11.'... Now. 1 know what she meant. My did is Joe Estep and he’s six feet tall in my eyes too!!!*' — Taceile Rumfelt. Taceile and her husband Don live east of Milford with their two sons.
