PE.TE.riS LI Ft OF INDIANS S Thurlow Lieurance Known as "Man Who Carries Voices" by "Redskins WICHITA, Kan. (AP) Some time soon Thurlow Lieurance, head of the fine arts department of the University of Wichita, will disappear from his usual haunts and somewhere on a tepee dotted reservation "The Man Who Carries Voices" will appear once again.. For many weeks The Man Who Carries Voiceswill live among his Indian friends. They will sing their love lyrics, their death chants, and chortle their war whoops for him to record on the phonograph which gave him his Indian name. Then The Man Who Carries Voices will leave the reservation and as Thurlow Lieurance, com poser of "By the Waters of Minne tonka," "Lullaby" and dozens of other songs, will return to his home to play and replay the rec ords and interpret ihe sounds in modern music forms. This singular procedure has been repeating Itself for more than 15 years, and, as a result. Lieu rance has gained fame for his mu sical interpretations of Jhe life of the fast-disappearing American Indian. He is recognized as one ot the foremost critics of Indian music. Trustees of the University have granted Lieurance an extended leave ot absence and he plans to spend part of it in further stud ies. The composer has melodies from about 30 different Indian tribes in North America in his phonograph library. He ha gath ered many Indian mementos and his collection of 40 Indian flutes is considered one of the largest and finest in the world. In his Indian programs, the flute music provides the background, for, he says, the flute Is the only native Indian instrument. "Mlnnetonka" was written from material gathered from a tribe of Sioux Indians. Lieurance carried the melody in his mind for many months and then set it on paper. Tears went by before it obtained general recognition. Some way It got to Europe and Julia Culp, the Dutch musician, read it, played it. and introduced the piece back to America with its resulting tre mendous success. Much of Lieu ranee's actual com position work is done at "Cherry HilL" his summer home- near Tay lor's Falls, Minn.
