Jack R. Maguire, Executit'e Director If you are Texas-born, or the newest arrival, you should know that once each year a tidal wave of history surges across the state. It's called the Folklife Festival, and it has been happening at The University of Texas Institute of Texan Cultures at San Antonio for the past 12 years. We're glad that you've come to share this Festival with us. There's nothing quite like it anywhere. The Festival is fun. But a lot of fun went into the making of Texas. It spills over and floods The Institute with songs, dances, food and fellowship. Most of all, it brings to life the cultures, folkways and histories of the 30 major ethnic groups which settled, developed and still make Texas. No wonder George Sessions Perry called it "a world in itself:' But an Institute of Texan Cultures? "Culture" in Texas-the place that TV Westerns depict as the land of the cowboy and Indian, the tinhorn gambler and the oil baron? And a Festival where one can "howdy" a sheep shearer, a goose plucker, a pickle maker, a quilter, a kite maker and a basket weaver? All of this, and much more, is the culture of Texas. For the four days of the Folklife Festival, 6,000 participants from almost 200 communities gather to prove just one thing: That no matter how different our ancestry, we are all Texans, with a common bond to our past and a common stake in our future. Indeed, this is what The Institute of Texan Cultures says to the half million people who visit our 50,000 Welcome square feet of exhibits each year. Texas is one of the most diverse of the 50 states, ethnically and culturally. But sometimes even Texans find it difficult to remember that San Antonio was a thriving community 45 years before the American Revolution. Or that the first Polish settlement in the U.S. was in Texas. Or that in the Bosque River valley of central Texas, Norwegian is still spoken. The stories of these, and the other major ethnic groups which settled Texas, are in The Institute's exhibits. But The Institute is more than a museum; it is a microcosm of the ethnic diversity that is Texas. The Institute of Texan Cultures is an educational institution that is unique. It grants no degrees, has no faculty and offers no regular classes. It is, however, a research facility, a publishing house and an institution whose educational outreach spr.eads all across Texas. Since it was opened in 1968, this component of The University of Texas System has published 41 books, produced dozens of audiovisuals, prepared a variety of teaching materials and reached an estimated 100,000 public school students annually. The Institute also circulates more than three dozen traveling exhibits and offers a "traveling trunk" program in which it sends out to schools touchable Texas gear such as wooden puppets, buffalo hides and Indian artifacts. Its mission is to make history come alive. Visitors can sit on the vast floor of the Dome Theater and watch a mul- • • • timedia show on the faces and places of Texas. Or they can watch tortillas made from raw corn in the Mexican area. Or they can learn to quilt, hear a lecture on ranch life delivered at a real chuck wagon or participate in a dozen other similar demonstrations of life in Texas as it was, and is. Much of the work of The Institute is performed by dedicated volunteers. This year nearly 350 of them contributed more than 40,000 hours to doing everything from teaching folk songs to conducting a Jewish sabbath service. "Culture;' says Dr. John L. Davis, director of the Division of Program Planning, "is the trappings of man. And for man to become truly man, he must know-really know-his culture:' Helping Texans remember, revive and revitalize their own heritage is what The Institute of Texan Cultures and its Folklife Festival are all about.

It has highways, back roads and wide open spaces; mountains, prairies, beaches and forests. There are heroes, villains and lots of just plain good folks; Germans, Hungarians, Mexicans and Poles. It offers history, romance, mystery and charm; art shows, rodeos and fiestas in the park. Even dedicated travelers, who devote years of weekend jaunts and two-week vacations journeying to every corner of the state in search of the total Texas experience, are hard pressed to take in everything worth seeing. But there is one tour of Texas that can be accomplished in a day, and you don't need a plane, a train, a car or even a covered wagon. All you need is a ticket to the Texas Folklife Festival, a comfortable pair of walking shoes, and a desire to discover as many of Texas's sights, -sounds and flavors as possible. Once you have all that together and have breezed through one of the Festival's four gates, all you have to do is decide whether to turn right or left, then just start walking. These photos give glimpses of the experiences which await you as you trek across Texas-Festival style. The colored borders correspond to the sections described in the coded map and legend on pages 24 and 25, to which you can refer for a detailed listing of activities in each area. For information concerning times and locations of stage performances, see the Entertainment Schedule on pages 26-33.

So he worked around in grocery stores and gas stations until his birthday, and even then his parents had to sign a release before a company could hire him. He went into the shipping department at Texaco, where his father was a gang-pusher, or group leader. In spite of his small size, under the weight limit, he learned to handle heavy cases of motor oil and the awkward 55-gallon barrels. Growing up in Port Arthur and Nederland, Ervin learned how to cook Cajun gumbo from his father, who had begun working in his family's kitchen at an early age. Starting with boiling water, Ervin would mix in the raux, or gravy base, stirring it in until it was completely dissolved. Then he would add onions, green peppers, salt and other ingredients, saving the shrimp or chicken or other meat for last and bringing the whole steaming pot to just the right point for ladling over a bowl of rice. Ervin also learned about making boudain and baking bread from his father. Among Cajun families men doing the cooking is a common thing, and it continues today. When World War II began Ervin made his way to Ft. Sam Houston in San Antonio, where someone found out that he knew about pots and pans and sent him to the army's cook and bake school. He stayed at Ft. Sam as a cook for the duration of the war. Once a month or so he would slip a few Cajun dishes into the menu for the sake of the boys coming over from Louisiana. After the war, when he returned to work in the refinery at Port Arthur, the old Cajun recipes stayed with him, and his gumbo became a special item for neighborhood get-togethers. Ervin Boudreaux doesn't look or act like a pirogue-poling; alligator wrestler 8 from a Cajun comic strip. He lives in 1984, among friends and neighbors with Cajun roots, and he knows something about oil refineries as well as shrimp gumbo. Juan Martinez learned to thatch roofs while growing up on his family's ranch near Dolores in Zapata County. At that time most of the buildings in Dolores were either sandstone structures, made of soft Ervin Boudreaux at the Cajun booth. Juan Martinez demonstrates roof ~hatching. stone cut from the banks of the Rio Grande, or mesquite jacals. The thatching process was a job for more than one person. So people came together and joined in, sharing the jobs of bundling the grass, setting the frame on the building, and layering and tying the bundles in. Roofs of sacahuiste or sacaton, a grass found only near south Texas creeks, could last 20 or even 30 years in the dry climate. Today Juan Martinez owns the Martinez Cattle Company, buying, selling and hauling cattle, holding roundups for other ranchers and overseeing land-clearing operations to increase pasturage. The 35 acres it takes to support a single cow in the brush country of south Texas can be reduced to 10 acres by clearing. Men operating bulldozers in tandem do the work, dragging l-beams or heavy chains made of links weighing 60 pounds each to flatten everything growing, then dragging out the roots and stacking the brush with frontloaders. After all the brush is cleared, the land is turned with a disc harrow. Even though Juan's skills as a roof thatcher are no longer in demand as they used to be, he maintains them as an active part of his life and heritage. So, like Ervin Boudreaux, Juan Martinez knows something both of traditional ways and the industrial world. Not many people would describe these two men as "folk" in the old sense, meaning quaint, isolated people who adhere to forgotten or dying ways of life. They both live in cities, work around complex machines, travel out of their local communities and experience the same array of mass communications as do other people in modern America. On the other hand, Boudreaux and Martinez carry on long-standing traditions within their families and local communities- traditions they learned personally from close relatives and friends; traditions that are valuable to the people around them. While these two men may not be "folk" in the old sense, they do exhibit a great deal of folklife. To turn things around a bit, folklife is people communicating traditions in the small groups to which they belong. And, though they come from completely different backgrounds, Juan Martinez and Ervin Boudreaux are both communicators of folklife traditions. Like most of the rest of us, Juan and Ervin live through folklife a good part of the time. In doing so they establish and preserve identities for themselves and their communities. Communicating traditions in small groups is a very human process that extends across all people and places, varying from one group to another, from one place to the next, changing, developing, dying out, growing up again. So Boudreaux and Martinez have for company, say, a knot of children jumping rope and chanting rhymes in a Houston street, the leader of a gospel group lining out a hymn for the singers in a Dallas church, or Italians playing bocce on Sunday afternoons in Montague. What makes these various things folklife is not just what they are, but how they occur. Nowadays anyone so inclined can learn how to play bocce from a book (or computer screen), pretty much out of touch with any other person. As the world goes, the learning is good, but it's not folklife. Folklife is in the doing, the personto- person "show me:' "well, it's this way" communication of traditions in local communities, among the people who make up the community. The traditions which contribute to the folklife of a particular community depend on the people themselves, their backgrounds and all the other things that · affect their sense of belonging to a group. Quite often the kinds of traditions that appear in a particular community can also be found in many other places. Obviously, jump rope games and storytelling occur in plenty of places, among different ethnic groups, in different languages. But the exciting and dynamic aspect is that each group in each place handles their traditional song or story or craft in a way unlike any other. Festival visitors learn to play the traditional Italian game of bocce. Consider roof thatching again. Learning the method directly from someone in the community, using materials common to the region and knowing what people in the area expect of the roof that results make the thatchwork of Juan Martinez a folklife tradition. This is true even though thatching itself is an ancient practice with many variations, found in many places around the world. Similarly, bocce, a traditional Italian game, has variations peculiar to the descendants of immigrants who brought the game to Montague County in the 1880's. In the Old World bocce games took place on flat, hardpacked sand courts with curved barriers at either end, but members of the Fenoglio family in Montague know of occasions when a country road served as the court. Now, putting folklife in a festival or having a festival about folklife is an idea that has been around a long while in Texas-40 years, at least. Folklife festivals are, in fact, pretty standard occurrences by now. Still, they take a great deal of work, cooperation and sheer determination to put together. The outcome depends largely on the assumption that folklife traditions of particular communities around the state can be picked up and moved to a central location for people to observe and experience. But no matter how much effort goes into the event, a folklife festival can present only a little of the folklife of a great many people. It opens the door, just a crack, to the communication of traditions among people who normally might not think of inviting the world into their lives. The Texas Folklife Festival draws vastly different people and traditions from across the state to create an occasion for shared experience. Ultimately, what is learned from this experience is up to the visitors and participants themselves. But by seeing examples of various traditions in festivals such as this one, perhaps people will begin to recognize and appreciate the kinds of folklife around them all the time. After all, knowing how to make gumbo or thatch a roof are things that just might come in handy some day. ]im McNutt is a research associate at The Institute of Texan Cultures. 9 Tomorrows deserve Frost Trust leadership We're in the business of tomorrows.

North Frost Bank NE Loop 410 at Nacogdoches 826-7999 Members FDIC Built in Texas: Life on the ''Back 40'' How many times have you walked through an old house and wondered what it must have been like to live there? Who were the people who called it their home? What did they do? Were their lives full of joy and happiness or hardship and sorrow? How were they different from us, or were they different at all? Just like books, photographs, letters, diaries and other keepsakes and possessions, buildings are artifacts from the past with stories of their own about the people who built and used them. In a sense, buildings are extensions of people and reflections of their culture, traditions and geographic surroundings. Consequently, we can discover a great deal about our forefathers and their life-styles through the buildings they constructed. At The Institute of Texan Cultures we take the idea that a building has a tale to tell one step further-we bring the story to life. Scattered throughout the "Back 40" are exhibits depicting some of the buildings and other structures around which the daily routine of many early Texans was centered. During the Folklife Festival these areas come alive with the sights, sounds and spirit of Texas's past. Frontier Fort Headquarters: When the Civil War ended in 1865 and the United States Army returned to Texas they found much of the land and power which had been gained since the Texas Revolution were again lost to the Indians. To aid in reclaiming and defending this territory, they refurbished several abandoned forts in the west and northwest regions of the state. Garrisoned by troops such as the famed "Buffalo Soldiers" of the lOth Cavalry, "Mackenzie's Raiders" of the 4th Cavalry and a handful of other regiments, these forts became familiar and 12 comforting sites for the farmers and ranchers in the area. The frontier fort headquarters exhibit is not an exact replica of a particular fort. It is, however, a representative example of military outposts in Texas between 1865 and 1875. Adapted from actual 19th century plans of a post commander's office and the living quarters of a junior officer, the two-room stone building is designed to provide a glimpse of what life was like for the soldiers and their families who braved hardship and danger to protect the Texas settlers. A visit to the fort headquarters is like stepping through a portal into another world. Members of the 4th U.S. Memorial Cavalry Regiment, the Fort Concho Infantry and the 7th Texas Mounted Volunteers CSA, along with volunteer demonstrators from the United Services Automobile Association (USAA), create a scene closely resembling the daily routine on a frontier outpost. Inside the headquarters building officers review past campaigns against the Indians and map out the strategy for their next expedition. For the enlisted men the day begins when they don their ill-fitting, uncomfortable wool uniforms and report for reveille and the first of three roll calls. Then there are drills, mounting of the guard and general chores to perform the evening dress parade and taps. T he men all agree that the food is poor, the housing marginal, the work hard and thf days long. Fort laundresses, some civilians anc some wives of post soldiers, go about the strenuous task of hauling water from the river and washing the heavy uniforms. Ir the sparsely furnished officer's quarters ; young wife sits by the window patient!· mending a torn garment. For most of th inhabitants, life in the frontier fort i tedious and boring. But there is time fo a few of the simple pleasures: a game c poker or blackjack, a picnic on the lawr a group of friends gathered on the porch for an evening of music and conversation, and a chance to spruce up a bit and head for the weekly dance or an occasional wedding celebration. The One· Room Schoolhouse: Outside the weathered building the schoolmarm rings the bell, calling to the children to line up and march inside. They take their places at the well-worn, wooden desks-girls on one side of the room, boys on the other; younger ones in front, older ones near the back. When all are seated the teacher says, "Good morning, class:' "Good morning, Miss Smith;' they respond in unison. Miss Smith directs the class to take out their McGuffey's readers and open them to page 25. "Sally;' she says, "please begin:' Sally stands and reads aloud from the passage entitled, "Perseverance:' When the reading lesson is over Miss Smith turns to a section in her Wentworth's Mental Arithmetic and poses this problem, ·~ farmer gave 7 apples to John and 13 to Helen; how many more has Helen than John?" Several children raise their hands. She points to a young boy in the center of the room and asks, "Tom, do you know the answer?" Tom jumps up and replies, "Yes, ma'am! Helen has 6 more apples than John:' After lunch outside under the shade trees and a short recess, it's back indoors for more lessons. The children take slates and slate pencils from their desks for the daily penmenship exercise. They draw push-pulls and circles and copy phrases, such as "Honor thy parents;' from the blackboard. Then, to end the day, Miss Smith divides the class into two teams for the spelling bee. Scenes such as this were daily occurrences in one-room schoolhouses across the Texas frontier. The schoolhouse on the "Back 40" is modeled after those which were common in the high plains region of the state. While it's difficult to reenact a typical school day during the Festival, with the help of Gerry Doyle of Beaumont and Beverley Bruff of San Antonio the setting takes on a realistic air. Chirography, the technical term for handwriting, is Gerry Doyle's speciality, and in his role as schoolmaster he teaches Festival visitors how to improve their penmanship. Using slates, slate pencils and quill pens, his "students" learn the techniques of good handwriting in much the same way pioneer children were taught. Reading aloud was one way used by frontier teachers to improve elocution and expression; another was acting out plays and improvisations. Beverley Bruff, who represents the Speech Arts Association, serves as director of the Festival's impromptu schoolhouse productions. She casts the different roles-usually including a hero, heroine and villain-hands out the scripts, and the drama ensues. The Barn and Windmill: For most of the 19th and early 20th centuries industry in Texas was constituted almost entirely of farming and ranching. Structures necessary to farm production were second only to housing in importance to the settlers. The crib or barn usually was built first in order to protect the harvest. Little by little the barn was expanded into a facility with many functions. It served as shelter for livestock; storage for corn and fodder; and protection for valuable tools such as the wagon and plough. As the farmer prospered and time and resources permitted, special purpose buildings, such as cellars and smokehouses, were added to the complex. Another structure which held great significance to farmers and ranchers, especially in areas of the state where surface water is scarce, was the windmill. Used for everything from pumping water to churning butter to shelling and grinding corn, wind power was the mode of the day. By the turn of the century many of the smaller ranches in Texas had from 100 to 350 mills pumping continuously. At one time the famous XIT Ranch near Channing had more than 500 in operation. The barn and windmill are two of the most enduring and easily recognizable symbols of our agricultural roots. Even today their rusty tin roofs and bright spinning blades are familiar landmarks in rural areas throughout the state. As the most recent additions to the "Back 40;' the barn and windmill exhibits provide the perfect backdrop for a portrayal of farm and ranch life in Texas. At one end of the barn, which resembles structures built and still used by many farmers in the Texas Hill Country, are Arnold Griffin and Bruce Roark of Devine 13 with their display of antique tools and tales about the joys and hardships of life on the farm. Reminiscent of old-fashioned barn-raising festivities is the nearly constant flow of hand-clapping, footstomping tunes, performed by The Institute's own Jim Fox and his musical friends, emanating from the other side of the barn. Nearby is OI Baker of Austin at the smokehouse busy explaining and demonstrating methods of preservation used by frontier families to ensure a supply of food during the nonproducing parts of the year. And of course, the steady whir of the wooden windmill-an original Eclipse model from the 1880's-adds to the feeling of being "back on the farm:' On-Going Programs: The Festival isn't the only time the "Back 40" buildings come to life. Through-out the school year costumed historical interpreters staff the exhibits as part of The Institute's on-going educational programs. Schoolchildren from all over the state tour the area and take a journey back in time to find out what their lives would have been like as pioneer children. The program not only shows them how the environment of early Texans was different from the world they know, it also helps them gain an appreciation for one thing that never changes. From one generation to the next, our desire to know about the people who came before remains constant and strong. Years from now as people wander through an old 20th century house made of brick, concrete and steel with an electronic dishwasher in the kitchen, remote control television in the family room and personal computer in the study, they too will search Discover the rich flavors of the Southwest at our all-you-can-eat buffet. for answers to the same questions we ask ourselves today. Who were the people who called this place home? What did they do? Was their life full of joy and happiness or hardship and sorrow? How were they different, or were they different at all? The "Back 40" exhibits have been made possible through the generosity and efforts of several individuals and corporations: O.T Baker, John Davis, Arnold Griffin, Bruce Roark and Matt Garcia assisted in construction of the schoolhouse; United Services Automobile Association (USAA) provided funding for both the frontier fort and the bam; Ray Ellison and Nash Phillips/Copus (NPC) contributed the labor for the building of the frontier fort and bam, respectively. We are grateful for their continued interest in and support of The Institute's programs and activities. PILE YOUR PLATE HIGH Create your own combination platter at our Mexican buffet.

I want so much to see on that canvas what I feel that I am afraid to begin. But I must break my inactivity and get past my moment of indecision. When I do, then I can go wild! -Jose Vives-Atsara from the book, Jose Vives-Atsara: His Life and His Art by Nancy Glass West As I read this quote I recall the many times I've found myself sitting in front of, not an empty canvas, but a blank computer screen with so much to say I don't know ·. where or how to begin. In fact, this is one of those times. My task is to write an article describing Jose Vives-Atsara and how he came to be the creator of this year's Folklife Festival commemorative poster. On the surface the project seems simple enough, but Mr. Vives-Atsara is not at all easy to characterize. My first impressions of him were as a quiet, charming gentleman, very talented and very sincere. But nothing about him even hinted that he has lead a life so compelling and touching it could easily be mistaken for a best-selling historical novel. Set in picturesque Catalonia, Spain, his story began when he was a promising young talent who started painting at the age of 11. With the help of a priest who recognized his abilities and encouraged him to pursue them, Jose was able to convince his father that his choice of art over a career in the family business was a good one. So he began studying and working and, at the age of 13, sold his first painting at an exhibition sponsored by his father and held in his hometown. From the time he was a teenager Jose had two obsessions: to paint and to go to 40 America. He read everything he could find about U.S. history and became so enamored of the country's ideals of freedom and opportunity that he vowed someday he would live and work there. But then the Spanish Civil War erupted in 1936, and, for a time, Jose's dreams were pushed aside and replaced by the much more immediate struggle for survival. Because he lived in a Communist zone Jose was drafted by the Republic. For several months he hid in the mountains to avoid entering the army and fighting against General Franco, with whom the Vives-Atsara family sympathized. Then one day his father's life was threatened, leaving Jose no recourse but to join the Republican forces. For two years he pretended to be a Communist, for to do otherwise would have meant certain death. Then, when the opportunity arose, he escaped and defected to the side of the Conservatives. Before he was accepted into the ranks of Franco's army, however, he was treated as a prisoner of war and placed in a concentration camp. Fortunately, Franco's takeover of Catalonia- in a victory that effectively ended the war-was not long in coming. Senor Vives was able to convince the authorities of his son's true loyalties, and Jose was released and served under Franco for nearly two years. During the war and his time in the concentration camp, Jose was not able to paint. Even though he had practiced his art through mental exercises, visualizing scenes and analyzing how he would reproduce the colors, he was afraid that after five years his skills were lost. But when he finally began again, his work was better than before. Over the next few years he worked to establish himself as a serious artist. His exhibitions received rave reviews from the critics, and soon he was confident enough in his future to ask Emilia, his love of seven years, to become his wife. On November 27, 1947, with 34 of his paintings packed in rolls and $3 2-hidden in his toothpaste tube so the Spanish authorities wouldn't find and confiscate it-Jose and Emilia boarded a ship headed for New York City. But because the 1947 quota for Spanish immigrants was so low and they were refused visas, New York was merely a brief stop on their way to Caracas, Venezuela, where they planned to stay with Emilia's relatives and work to expand his reputation as a gifted artist. Within a short time, however, Jose's cousin, who lived in Mexico, urged them to come to Mexico City. Jose felt there would be more opportunities to exhibit and sell his art there, and ANSWERS Scrambled Eggs 1. bratwurst , 2. sambouski, 3. borscht, 4. par is a, 5. klobasnicky (fooled you, this one isn't scrambled), 6. inihaw, i . teriyaki, 8. pepperoni piz za, 9. falafel, 10. popcorn Matching Mania BELGIAN ITALIAN WEN DISH FILIPINO POLISH Festival Facts NOODLE-MAKING PYSANKY TINIKLING BOLLS SAUSAGE STUFFING BOCCE WYCINANKI CASCARONES I. hog dogs or cow dogs; 2. cla y, water, manure; 3. check at the herb booth w see if your answer is correct ; 4. corn meal; 5. the blade of a hoe; 6. ashes, water, animal fat; 7. jerky; 8. sweet potato; 9. wax; 10. straw; II. cabbage; 12. hopscotch, marbles, string game-check at the Frontier Play land booth for more possible answers Continued from page 40 besides it meant being one step closer to J\merica. So, once again, they packed up his precious canvases and moved on. It was in Mexico that Jose met Mr. J. Clair Midcap, a well-to-do patron of the arts who fell in love with his work. Mr. Midcap lived in San Antonio and often asked Jose to come and visit. Finally, after almost six years in Mexico, Jose's desire to see the United States could be contained no longer. He obtained a temporary visa, loaded his paintings in his car and crossed the border on his way to San Antonio. With assistance from the Midcaps, Jose set about the task of introducing himself to the local art enthusiasts, several of whom were quite taken with h is paintings. During his stay in San Antonio Jose made many good contacts and developed some significant and lasting friendships. At Christmas time he went back to Mexico to be with his family but resolved to return as soon as possible and make San Antonio his home. After another two years the family was able to obtain visas, and in September of 1956 the long-awaited dream of life in America became a reality. The VivesAtsaras settled into San Antonio easily Craftsearch X I 0 ~f.";-1__;;---;;--:::,~7--;C=---:;D:----;:E:----;O:___;:U.--Tr;; , A C H W ~D~F~~~~~~=§~~~=*~~~K H S T "'--¥--?"'--"'-'--"'-' E I B R E s L E u s H I p K F I D w T U N A E p T H A and comfortably, but unfortunately, their struggles were not over. Their chances of becoming permanent residents were slim. Only 200 Spaniards a year were allowed to enter the States, and the immigration quotas were already oversubscribed. Even though Jose attained the status of a distinguished merit visitor and received several extensions to his visa, his applications for residency were continually denied until, in July of 1958, he and his family were forced to leave the country and return to Spain. But Jose's determination never wavered. In less than a year, with help from his many friends in San Antonio, his petition for reentry was approved. Upon arriving again in the city he wanted to make sure there was no question of his desire for permanence, so he bought a house and enrolled his children in school. Moreover, he did everything in his power to demonstrate his abilities as a valuable asset to the city's cultural growth. This time his efforts paid off, and in December 1960 the Vives-Atsaras received a very special Christmas gift-two small green cards designating them as official residents of the United States of America. D c 0 w s R J I G R M 0 T p J J E I S H I N G N T C H I N G Ever since that first journey across the border to visit the Midcaps, Jose knew that San Antonio was where he wanted to live and work. But without the support of the community his goal could never have been achieved. That's why even now, after nearly 30 years of dedication and contributions which have enriched the culture of San Antonio and Texas, he still feels compelled to express his gratefulness: "I think that the luckiest day of my life is when I put my feet in Texas and came to make my nest in San Antonio. This is my home and it's going to be as long as I live. I will repeat again and again my gratitude from the bottom of my heart to the wonderful people who have let us have our home here to grow our family and feel happy like never before. I do my best to deserve everything wonderful that San Antonio and Texas have given me:' The 1984 Texas Folklife Festival Commemorative Poster is more than a painting; it is a gift from Jose Vives-Atsara to the people of his adopted city and state for helping him attain something few individuals are fortunate enough to ever experience- the fu lfillment of his lifelong dream. 41 BURKETT'S DISTRIBUTING CO. 4300 WEST AVENUE - P.O.

Well, for about the same price they both usher you into another time and place, and broaden your view of the "real" world outside. Having all the elements of a historical epic, the Festival brings the saga of Texas to life. In the spotlight are the history and heritage of the more than 30 ethnic groups who braved land and sea to settle in Texas and ultimately flourish here. Produced by The Institute of Texan Cultures, the Festival is 12 months in the making. A cast and crew of thousands, including nearly 6,000 participants from across the state and hundreds of staff members and volunteers, work year-round to make each one better than the last. Now that the '84 Festival is under way and the wrap-up celebration has begun, we would like to give you a behind-the-scenes look at the Texas Folklife Festival. Director Jo Ann Andera has the job of seeing that the grand scenario takes shape. Most of the year she spends her time attending to a multitude of details, everything from casting the parts to ordering the props. Then, in early July, she trades in the metaphorical director's chair and beret for a golf cart and sun visor and leaves the studio work behind to go "on location:' Though she doesn't roam the 15-acre grounds framing scenes between her thumbs and forefingers, she can be spotted piloting her golf cart over every inch of the Festival site supervising the construction and placement of hundreds of booths and exhibit areas, acres of shade, additional fencing and 10 fully equipped stages. Charged with building the Festival "set" are Jerry Kusenberger, Director of Physical Plant at The Institute, and Tommy Moreno, Chief Electrician. According to Andera, in the six weeks before the Festival opens, they and their 26-member crew essentially build a city for 6,000, complete with electricity, water, shelter and phones. Inside The Institute, staff members attend to a multitude of details such as keeping participants abreast of developments and arrangements; handling mail-order tickets; recruiting and training the many volunteers who help out during the Festival; producing brochures, posters, press kits and programs; and much more. Back in their hometowns, the international cast also prepares for their leading role at the Festival-sharing the folkways of their forebears. The craftsmen and artisans, including potters, spinners, weavers, whittlers, chimney makers, beekeepers, boat builders, blacksmiths and others, hone their skills and perfect their presentations. The singers and musicians finetune their repertoires: jazz, bluegrass, folk, country, gospel, bagpipe and mariachi music, to name a few. And folk dance troupes representing Greece, the Philippines, Poland, Germany, the British Isles, Polynesia, Mexico and other countries rehearse the performances that turn the Festival stages into a whirl of excitement. Many of the groups must get ready to fill a tall order-preparing ethnic cuisine for 100,000 guests. And that's not all. There are booths to design and costumes to make which reflect each group's culture and heritage. The result of these efforts is that by the time the Festival is ready to open, the grounds have been transformed into what looks like a deserted back lot at Universal Studios. But when the time comes for the Director to signal ·~ction!" a tidal wave of people, traditions, culture and heritage from all across Texas floods the scene with life and color. Staff, volunteers and participants alike-everyone works hard throughout the year to make the Festival a "hit:' And while it will never win an Academy Award, we think it's definitely in the running for the "people's choice" as one of the best bets in educational family entertainment in the state.

Transcript | Jack R. Maguire, Executit'e Director If you are Texas-born, or the newest arrival, you should know that once each year a tidal wave of history surges across the state. It's called the Folklife Festival, and it has been happening at The University of Texas Institute of Texan Cultures at San Antonio for the past 12 years. We're glad that you've come to share this Festival with us. There's nothing quite like it anywhere. The Festival is fun. But a lot of fun went into the making of Texas. It spills over and floods The Institute with songs, dances, food and fellowship. Most of all, it brings to life the cultures, folkways and histories of the 30 major ethnic groups which settled, developed and still make Texas. No wonder George Sessions Perry called it "a world in itself:' But an Institute of Texan Cultures? "Culture" in Texas-the place that TV Westerns depict as the land of the cowboy and Indian, the tinhorn gambler and the oil baron? And a Festival where one can "howdy" a sheep shearer, a goose plucker, a pickle maker, a quilter, a kite maker and a basket weaver? All of this, and much more, is the culture of Texas. For the four days of the Folklife Festival, 6,000 participants from almost 200 communities gather to prove just one thing: That no matter how different our ancestry, we are all Texans, with a common bond to our past and a common stake in our future. Indeed, this is what The Institute of Texan Cultures says to the half million people who visit our 50,000 Welcome square feet of exhibits each year. Texas is one of the most diverse of the 50 states, ethnically and culturally. But sometimes even Texans find it difficult to remember that San Antonio was a thriving community 45 years before the American Revolution. Or that the first Polish settlement in the U.S. was in Texas. Or that in the Bosque River valley of central Texas, Norwegian is still spoken. The stories of these, and the other major ethnic groups which settled Texas, are in The Institute's exhibits. But The Institute is more than a museum; it is a microcosm of the ethnic diversity that is Texas. The Institute of Texan Cultures is an educational institution that is unique. It grants no degrees, has no faculty and offers no regular classes. It is, however, a research facility, a publishing house and an institution whose educational outreach spr.eads all across Texas. Since it was opened in 1968, this component of The University of Texas System has published 41 books, produced dozens of audiovisuals, prepared a variety of teaching materials and reached an estimated 100,000 public school students annually. The Institute also circulates more than three dozen traveling exhibits and offers a "traveling trunk" program in which it sends out to schools touchable Texas gear such as wooden puppets, buffalo hides and Indian artifacts. Its mission is to make history come alive. Visitors can sit on the vast floor of the Dome Theater and watch a mul- • • • timedia show on the faces and places of Texas. Or they can watch tortillas made from raw corn in the Mexican area. Or they can learn to quilt, hear a lecture on ranch life delivered at a real chuck wagon or participate in a dozen other similar demonstrations of life in Texas as it was, and is. Much of the work of The Institute is performed by dedicated volunteers. This year nearly 350 of them contributed more than 40,000 hours to doing everything from teaching folk songs to conducting a Jewish sabbath service. "Culture;' says Dr. John L. Davis, director of the Division of Program Planning, "is the trappings of man. And for man to become truly man, he must know-really know-his culture:' Helping Texans remember, revive and revitalize their own heritage is what The Institute of Texan Cultures and its Folklife Festival are all about.

It has highways, back roads and wide open spaces; mountains, prairies, beaches and forests. There are heroes, villains and lots of just plain good folks; Germans, Hungarians, Mexicans and Poles. It offers history, romance, mystery and charm; art shows, rodeos and fiestas in the park. Even dedicated travelers, who devote years of weekend jaunts and two-week vacations journeying to every corner of the state in search of the total Texas experience, are hard pressed to take in everything worth seeing. But there is one tour of Texas that can be accomplished in a day, and you don't need a plane, a train, a car or even a covered wagon. All you need is a ticket to the Texas Folklife Festival, a comfortable pair of walking shoes, and a desire to discover as many of Texas's sights, -sounds and flavors as possible. Once you have all that together and have breezed through one of the Festival's four gates, all you have to do is decide whether to turn right or left, then just start walking. These photos give glimpses of the experiences which await you as you trek across Texas-Festival style. The colored borders correspond to the sections described in the coded map and legend on pages 24 and 25, to which you can refer for a detailed listing of activities in each area. For information concerning times and locations of stage performances, see the Entertainment Schedule on pages 26-33.

So he worked around in grocery stores and gas stations until his birthday, and even then his parents had to sign a release before a company could hire him. He went into the shipping department at Texaco, where his father was a gang-pusher, or group leader. In spite of his small size, under the weight limit, he learned to handle heavy cases of motor oil and the awkward 55-gallon barrels. Growing up in Port Arthur and Nederland, Ervin learned how to cook Cajun gumbo from his father, who had begun working in his family's kitchen at an early age. Starting with boiling water, Ervin would mix in the raux, or gravy base, stirring it in until it was completely dissolved. Then he would add onions, green peppers, salt and other ingredients, saving the shrimp or chicken or other meat for last and bringing the whole steaming pot to just the right point for ladling over a bowl of rice. Ervin also learned about making boudain and baking bread from his father. Among Cajun families men doing the cooking is a common thing, and it continues today. When World War II began Ervin made his way to Ft. Sam Houston in San Antonio, where someone found out that he knew about pots and pans and sent him to the army's cook and bake school. He stayed at Ft. Sam as a cook for the duration of the war. Once a month or so he would slip a few Cajun dishes into the menu for the sake of the boys coming over from Louisiana. After the war, when he returned to work in the refinery at Port Arthur, the old Cajun recipes stayed with him, and his gumbo became a special item for neighborhood get-togethers. Ervin Boudreaux doesn't look or act like a pirogue-poling; alligator wrestler 8 from a Cajun comic strip. He lives in 1984, among friends and neighbors with Cajun roots, and he knows something about oil refineries as well as shrimp gumbo. Juan Martinez learned to thatch roofs while growing up on his family's ranch near Dolores in Zapata County. At that time most of the buildings in Dolores were either sandstone structures, made of soft Ervin Boudreaux at the Cajun booth. Juan Martinez demonstrates roof ~hatching. stone cut from the banks of the Rio Grande, or mesquite jacals. The thatching process was a job for more than one person. So people came together and joined in, sharing the jobs of bundling the grass, setting the frame on the building, and layering and tying the bundles in. Roofs of sacahuiste or sacaton, a grass found only near south Texas creeks, could last 20 or even 30 years in the dry climate. Today Juan Martinez owns the Martinez Cattle Company, buying, selling and hauling cattle, holding roundups for other ranchers and overseeing land-clearing operations to increase pasturage. The 35 acres it takes to support a single cow in the brush country of south Texas can be reduced to 10 acres by clearing. Men operating bulldozers in tandem do the work, dragging l-beams or heavy chains made of links weighing 60 pounds each to flatten everything growing, then dragging out the roots and stacking the brush with frontloaders. After all the brush is cleared, the land is turned with a disc harrow. Even though Juan's skills as a roof thatcher are no longer in demand as they used to be, he maintains them as an active part of his life and heritage. So, like Ervin Boudreaux, Juan Martinez knows something both of traditional ways and the industrial world. Not many people would describe these two men as "folk" in the old sense, meaning quaint, isolated people who adhere to forgotten or dying ways of life. They both live in cities, work around complex machines, travel out of their local communities and experience the same array of mass communications as do other people in modern America. On the other hand, Boudreaux and Martinez carry on long-standing traditions within their families and local communities- traditions they learned personally from close relatives and friends; traditions that are valuable to the people around them. While these two men may not be "folk" in the old sense, they do exhibit a great deal of folklife. To turn things around a bit, folklife is people communicating traditions in the small groups to which they belong. And, though they come from completely different backgrounds, Juan Martinez and Ervin Boudreaux are both communicators of folklife traditions. Like most of the rest of us, Juan and Ervin live through folklife a good part of the time. In doing so they establish and preserve identities for themselves and their communities. Communicating traditions in small groups is a very human process that extends across all people and places, varying from one group to another, from one place to the next, changing, developing, dying out, growing up again. So Boudreaux and Martinez have for company, say, a knot of children jumping rope and chanting rhymes in a Houston street, the leader of a gospel group lining out a hymn for the singers in a Dallas church, or Italians playing bocce on Sunday afternoons in Montague. What makes these various things folklife is not just what they are, but how they occur. Nowadays anyone so inclined can learn how to play bocce from a book (or computer screen), pretty much out of touch with any other person. As the world goes, the learning is good, but it's not folklife. Folklife is in the doing, the personto- person "show me:' "well, it's this way" communication of traditions in local communities, among the people who make up the community. The traditions which contribute to the folklife of a particular community depend on the people themselves, their backgrounds and all the other things that · affect their sense of belonging to a group. Quite often the kinds of traditions that appear in a particular community can also be found in many other places. Obviously, jump rope games and storytelling occur in plenty of places, among different ethnic groups, in different languages. But the exciting and dynamic aspect is that each group in each place handles their traditional song or story or craft in a way unlike any other. Festival visitors learn to play the traditional Italian game of bocce. Consider roof thatching again. Learning the method directly from someone in the community, using materials common to the region and knowing what people in the area expect of the roof that results make the thatchwork of Juan Martinez a folklife tradition. This is true even though thatching itself is an ancient practice with many variations, found in many places around the world. Similarly, bocce, a traditional Italian game, has variations peculiar to the descendants of immigrants who brought the game to Montague County in the 1880's. In the Old World bocce games took place on flat, hardpacked sand courts with curved barriers at either end, but members of the Fenoglio family in Montague know of occasions when a country road served as the court. Now, putting folklife in a festival or having a festival about folklife is an idea that has been around a long while in Texas-40 years, at least. Folklife festivals are, in fact, pretty standard occurrences by now. Still, they take a great deal of work, cooperation and sheer determination to put together. The outcome depends largely on the assumption that folklife traditions of particular communities around the state can be picked up and moved to a central location for people to observe and experience. But no matter how much effort goes into the event, a folklife festival can present only a little of the folklife of a great many people. It opens the door, just a crack, to the communication of traditions among people who normally might not think of inviting the world into their lives. The Texas Folklife Festival draws vastly different people and traditions from across the state to create an occasion for shared experience. Ultimately, what is learned from this experience is up to the visitors and participants themselves. But by seeing examples of various traditions in festivals such as this one, perhaps people will begin to recognize and appreciate the kinds of folklife around them all the time. After all, knowing how to make gumbo or thatch a roof are things that just might come in handy some day. ]im McNutt is a research associate at The Institute of Texan Cultures. 9 Tomorrows deserve Frost Trust leadership We're in the business of tomorrows.

North Frost Bank NE Loop 410 at Nacogdoches 826-7999 Members FDIC Built in Texas: Life on the ''Back 40'' How many times have you walked through an old house and wondered what it must have been like to live there? Who were the people who called it their home? What did they do? Were their lives full of joy and happiness or hardship and sorrow? How were they different from us, or were they different at all? Just like books, photographs, letters, diaries and other keepsakes and possessions, buildings are artifacts from the past with stories of their own about the people who built and used them. In a sense, buildings are extensions of people and reflections of their culture, traditions and geographic surroundings. Consequently, we can discover a great deal about our forefathers and their life-styles through the buildings they constructed. At The Institute of Texan Cultures we take the idea that a building has a tale to tell one step further-we bring the story to life. Scattered throughout the "Back 40" are exhibits depicting some of the buildings and other structures around which the daily routine of many early Texans was centered. During the Folklife Festival these areas come alive with the sights, sounds and spirit of Texas's past. Frontier Fort Headquarters: When the Civil War ended in 1865 and the United States Army returned to Texas they found much of the land and power which had been gained since the Texas Revolution were again lost to the Indians. To aid in reclaiming and defending this territory, they refurbished several abandoned forts in the west and northwest regions of the state. Garrisoned by troops such as the famed "Buffalo Soldiers" of the lOth Cavalry, "Mackenzie's Raiders" of the 4th Cavalry and a handful of other regiments, these forts became familiar and 12 comforting sites for the farmers and ranchers in the area. The frontier fort headquarters exhibit is not an exact replica of a particular fort. It is, however, a representative example of military outposts in Texas between 1865 and 1875. Adapted from actual 19th century plans of a post commander's office and the living quarters of a junior officer, the two-room stone building is designed to provide a glimpse of what life was like for the soldiers and their families who braved hardship and danger to protect the Texas settlers. A visit to the fort headquarters is like stepping through a portal into another world. Members of the 4th U.S. Memorial Cavalry Regiment, the Fort Concho Infantry and the 7th Texas Mounted Volunteers CSA, along with volunteer demonstrators from the United Services Automobile Association (USAA), create a scene closely resembling the daily routine on a frontier outpost. Inside the headquarters building officers review past campaigns against the Indians and map out the strategy for their next expedition. For the enlisted men the day begins when they don their ill-fitting, uncomfortable wool uniforms and report for reveille and the first of three roll calls. Then there are drills, mounting of the guard and general chores to perform the evening dress parade and taps. T he men all agree that the food is poor, the housing marginal, the work hard and thf days long. Fort laundresses, some civilians anc some wives of post soldiers, go about the strenuous task of hauling water from the river and washing the heavy uniforms. Ir the sparsely furnished officer's quarters ; young wife sits by the window patient!· mending a torn garment. For most of th inhabitants, life in the frontier fort i tedious and boring. But there is time fo a few of the simple pleasures: a game c poker or blackjack, a picnic on the lawr a group of friends gathered on the porch for an evening of music and conversation, and a chance to spruce up a bit and head for the weekly dance or an occasional wedding celebration. The One· Room Schoolhouse: Outside the weathered building the schoolmarm rings the bell, calling to the children to line up and march inside. They take their places at the well-worn, wooden desks-girls on one side of the room, boys on the other; younger ones in front, older ones near the back. When all are seated the teacher says, "Good morning, class:' "Good morning, Miss Smith;' they respond in unison. Miss Smith directs the class to take out their McGuffey's readers and open them to page 25. "Sally;' she says, "please begin:' Sally stands and reads aloud from the passage entitled, "Perseverance:' When the reading lesson is over Miss Smith turns to a section in her Wentworth's Mental Arithmetic and poses this problem, ·~ farmer gave 7 apples to John and 13 to Helen; how many more has Helen than John?" Several children raise their hands. She points to a young boy in the center of the room and asks, "Tom, do you know the answer?" Tom jumps up and replies, "Yes, ma'am! Helen has 6 more apples than John:' After lunch outside under the shade trees and a short recess, it's back indoors for more lessons. The children take slates and slate pencils from their desks for the daily penmenship exercise. They draw push-pulls and circles and copy phrases, such as "Honor thy parents;' from the blackboard. Then, to end the day, Miss Smith divides the class into two teams for the spelling bee. Scenes such as this were daily occurrences in one-room schoolhouses across the Texas frontier. The schoolhouse on the "Back 40" is modeled after those which were common in the high plains region of the state. While it's difficult to reenact a typical school day during the Festival, with the help of Gerry Doyle of Beaumont and Beverley Bruff of San Antonio the setting takes on a realistic air. Chirography, the technical term for handwriting, is Gerry Doyle's speciality, and in his role as schoolmaster he teaches Festival visitors how to improve their penmanship. Using slates, slate pencils and quill pens, his "students" learn the techniques of good handwriting in much the same way pioneer children were taught. Reading aloud was one way used by frontier teachers to improve elocution and expression; another was acting out plays and improvisations. Beverley Bruff, who represents the Speech Arts Association, serves as director of the Festival's impromptu schoolhouse productions. She casts the different roles-usually including a hero, heroine and villain-hands out the scripts, and the drama ensues. The Barn and Windmill: For most of the 19th and early 20th centuries industry in Texas was constituted almost entirely of farming and ranching. Structures necessary to farm production were second only to housing in importance to the settlers. The crib or barn usually was built first in order to protect the harvest. Little by little the barn was expanded into a facility with many functions. It served as shelter for livestock; storage for corn and fodder; and protection for valuable tools such as the wagon and plough. As the farmer prospered and time and resources permitted, special purpose buildings, such as cellars and smokehouses, were added to the complex. Another structure which held great significance to farmers and ranchers, especially in areas of the state where surface water is scarce, was the windmill. Used for everything from pumping water to churning butter to shelling and grinding corn, wind power was the mode of the day. By the turn of the century many of the smaller ranches in Texas had from 100 to 350 mills pumping continuously. At one time the famous XIT Ranch near Channing had more than 500 in operation. The barn and windmill are two of the most enduring and easily recognizable symbols of our agricultural roots. Even today their rusty tin roofs and bright spinning blades are familiar landmarks in rural areas throughout the state. As the most recent additions to the "Back 40;' the barn and windmill exhibits provide the perfect backdrop for a portrayal of farm and ranch life in Texas. At one end of the barn, which resembles structures built and still used by many farmers in the Texas Hill Country, are Arnold Griffin and Bruce Roark of Devine 13 with their display of antique tools and tales about the joys and hardships of life on the farm. Reminiscent of old-fashioned barn-raising festivities is the nearly constant flow of hand-clapping, footstomping tunes, performed by The Institute's own Jim Fox and his musical friends, emanating from the other side of the barn. Nearby is OI Baker of Austin at the smokehouse busy explaining and demonstrating methods of preservation used by frontier families to ensure a supply of food during the nonproducing parts of the year. And of course, the steady whir of the wooden windmill-an original Eclipse model from the 1880's-adds to the feeling of being "back on the farm:' On-Going Programs: The Festival isn't the only time the "Back 40" buildings come to life. Through-out the school year costumed historical interpreters staff the exhibits as part of The Institute's on-going educational programs. Schoolchildren from all over the state tour the area and take a journey back in time to find out what their lives would have been like as pioneer children. The program not only shows them how the environment of early Texans was different from the world they know, it also helps them gain an appreciation for one thing that never changes.

I want so much to see on that canvas what I feel that I am afraid to begin. But I must break my inactivity and get past my moment of indecision. When I do, then I can go wild! -Jose Vives-Atsara from the book, Jose Vives-Atsara: His Life and His Art by Nancy Glass West As I read this quote I recall the many times I've found myself sitting in front of, not an empty canvas, but a blank computer screen with so much to say I don't know ·. where or how to begin. In fact, this is one of those times. My task is to write an article describing Jose Vives-Atsara and how he came to be the creator of this year's Folklife Festival commemorative poster. On the surface the project seems simple enough, but Mr. Vives-Atsara is not at all easy to characterize. My first impressions of him were as a quiet, charming gentleman, very talented and very sincere. But nothing about him even hinted that he has lead a life so compelling and touching it could easily be mistaken for a best-selling historical novel. Set in picturesque Catalonia, Spain, his story began when he was a promising young talent who started painting at the age of 11. With the help of a priest who recognized his abilities and encouraged him to pursue them, Jose was able to convince his father that his choice of art over a career in the family business was a good one. So he began studying and working and, at the age of 13, sold his first painting at an exhibition sponsored by his father and held in his hometown. From the time he was a teenager Jose had two obsessions: to paint and to go to 40 America. He read everything he could find about U.S. history and became so enamored of the country's ideals of freedom and opportunity that he vowed someday he would live and work there. But then the Spanish Civil War erupted in 1936, and, for a time, Jose's dreams were pushed aside and replaced by the much more immediate struggle for survival. Because he lived in a Communist zone Jose was drafted by the Republic. For several months he hid in the mountains to avoid entering the army and fighting against General Franco, with whom the Vives-Atsara family sympathized. Then one day his father's life was threatened, leaving Jose no recourse but to join the Republican forces. For two years he pretended to be a Communist, for to do otherwise would have meant certain death. Then, when the opportunity arose, he escaped and defected to the side of the Conservatives. Before he was accepted into the ranks of Franco's army, however, he was treated as a prisoner of war and placed in a concentration camp. Fortunately, Franco's takeover of Catalonia- in a victory that effectively ended the war-was not long in coming. Senor Vives was able to convince the authorities of his son's true loyalties, and Jose was released and served under Franco for nearly two years. During the war and his time in the concentration camp, Jose was not able to paint. Even though he had practiced his art through mental exercises, visualizing scenes and analyzing how he would reproduce the colors, he was afraid that after five years his skills were lost. But when he finally began again, his work was better than before. Over the next few years he worked to establish himself as a serious artist. His exhibitions received rave reviews from the critics, and soon he was confident enough in his future to ask Emilia, his love of seven years, to become his wife. On November 27, 1947, with 34 of his paintings packed in rolls and $3 2-hidden in his toothpaste tube so the Spanish authorities wouldn't find and confiscate it-Jose and Emilia boarded a ship headed for New York City. But because the 1947 quota for Spanish immigrants was so low and they were refused visas, New York was merely a brief stop on their way to Caracas, Venezuela, where they planned to stay with Emilia's relatives and work to expand his reputation as a gifted artist. Within a short time, however, Jose's cousin, who lived in Mexico, urged them to come to Mexico City. Jose felt there would be more opportunities to exhibit and sell his art there, and ANSWERS Scrambled Eggs 1. bratwurst , 2. sambouski, 3. borscht, 4. par is a, 5. klobasnicky (fooled you, this one isn't scrambled), 6. inihaw, i . teriyaki, 8. pepperoni piz za, 9. falafel, 10. popcorn Matching Mania BELGIAN ITALIAN WEN DISH FILIPINO POLISH Festival Facts NOODLE-MAKING PYSANKY TINIKLING BOLLS SAUSAGE STUFFING BOCCE WYCINANKI CASCARONES I. hog dogs or cow dogs; 2. cla y, water, manure; 3. check at the herb booth w see if your answer is correct ; 4. corn meal; 5. the blade of a hoe; 6. ashes, water, animal fat; 7. jerky; 8. sweet potato; 9. wax; 10. straw; II. cabbage; 12. hopscotch, marbles, string game-check at the Frontier Play land booth for more possible answers Continued from page 40 besides it meant being one step closer to J\merica. So, once again, they packed up his precious canvases and moved on. It was in Mexico that Jose met Mr. J. Clair Midcap, a well-to-do patron of the arts who fell in love with his work. Mr. Midcap lived in San Antonio and often asked Jose to come and visit. Finally, after almost six years in Mexico, Jose's desire to see the United States could be contained no longer. He obtained a temporary visa, loaded his paintings in his car and crossed the border on his way to San Antonio. With assistance from the Midcaps, Jose set about the task of introducing himself to the local art enthusiasts, several of whom were quite taken with h is paintings. During his stay in San Antonio Jose made many good contacts and developed some significant and lasting friendships. At Christmas time he went back to Mexico to be with his family but resolved to return as soon as possible and make San Antonio his home. After another two years the family was able to obtain visas, and in September of 1956 the long-awaited dream of life in America became a reality. The VivesAtsaras settled into San Antonio easily Craftsearch X I 0 ~f.";-1__;;---;;--:::,~7--;C=---:;D:----;:E:----;O:___;:U.--Tr;; , A C H W ~D~F~~~~~~=§~~~=*~~~K H S T "'--¥--?"'--"'-'--"'-' E I B R E s L E u s H I p K F I D w T U N A E p T H A and comfortably, but unfortunately, their struggles were not over. Their chances of becoming permanent residents were slim. Only 200 Spaniards a year were allowed to enter the States, and the immigration quotas were already oversubscribed. Even though Jose attained the status of a distinguished merit visitor and received several extensions to his visa, his applications for residency were continually denied until, in July of 1958, he and his family were forced to leave the country and return to Spain. But Jose's determination never wavered. In less than a year, with help from his many friends in San Antonio, his petition for reentry was approved. Upon arriving again in the city he wanted to make sure there was no question of his desire for permanence, so he bought a house and enrolled his children in school. Moreover, he did everything in his power to demonstrate his abilities as a valuable asset to the city's cultural growth. This time his efforts paid off, and in December 1960 the Vives-Atsaras received a very special Christmas gift-two small green cards designating them as official residents of the United States of America. D c 0 w s R J I G R M 0 T p J J E I S H I N G N T C H I N G Ever since that first journey across the border to visit the Midcaps, Jose knew that San Antonio was where he wanted to live and work. But without the support of the community his goal could never have been achieved. That's why even now, after nearly 30 years of dedication and contributions which have enriched the culture of San Antonio and Texas, he still feels compelled to express his gratefulness: "I think that the luckiest day of my life is when I put my feet in Texas and came to make my nest in San Antonio. This is my home and it's going to be as long as I live. I will repeat again and again my gratitude from the bottom of my heart to the wonderful people who have let us have our home here to grow our family and feel happy like never before. I do my best to deserve everything wonderful that San Antonio and Texas have given me:' The 1984 Texas Folklife Festival Commemorative Poster is more than a painting; it is a gift from Jose Vives-Atsara to the people of his adopted city and state for helping him attain something few individuals are fortunate enough to ever experience- the fu lfillment of his lifelong dream. 41 BURKETT'S DISTRIBUTING CO. 4300 WEST AVENUE - P.O.

Well, for about the same price they both usher you into another time and place, and broaden your view of the "real" world outside. Having all the elements of a historical epic, the Festival brings the saga of Texas to life. In the spotlight are the history and heritage of the more than 30 ethnic groups who braved land and sea to settle in Texas and ultimately flourish here. Produced by The Institute of Texan Cultures, the Festival is 12 months in the making. A cast and crew of thousands, including nearly 6,000 participants from across the state and hundreds of staff members and volunteers, work year-round to make each one better than the last. Now that the '84 Festival is under way and the wrap-up celebration has begun, we would like to give you a behind-the-scenes look at the Texas Folklife Festival. Director Jo Ann Andera has the job of seeing that the grand scenario takes shape. Most of the year she spends her time attending to a multitude of details, everything from casting the parts to ordering the props. Then, in early July, she trades in the metaphorical director's chair and beret for a golf cart and sun visor and leaves the studio work behind to go "on location:' Though she doesn't roam the 15-acre grounds framing scenes between her thumbs and forefingers, she can be spotted piloting her golf cart over every inch of the Festival site supervising the construction and placement of hundreds of booths and exhibit areas, acres of shade, additional fencing and 10 fully equipped stages. Charged with building the Festival "set" are Jerry Kusenberger, Director of Physical Plant at The Institute, and Tommy Moreno, Chief Electrician. According to Andera, in the six weeks before the Festival opens, they and their 26-member crew essentially build a city for 6,000, complete with electricity, water, shelter and phones. Inside The Institute, staff members attend to a multitude of details such as keeping participants abreast of developments and arrangements; handling mail-order tickets; recruiting and training the many volunteers who help out during the Festival; producing brochures, posters, press kits and programs; and much more. Back in their hometowns, the international cast also prepares for their leading role at the Festival-sharing the folkways of their forebears. The craftsmen and artisans, including potters, spinners, weavers, whittlers, chimney makers, beekeepers, boat builders, blacksmiths and others, hone their skills and perfect their presentations. The singers and musicians finetune their repertoires: jazz, bluegrass, folk, country, gospel, bagpipe and mariachi music, to name a few. And folk dance troupes representing Greece, the Philippines, Poland, Germany, the British Isles, Polynesia, Mexico and other countries rehearse the performances that turn the Festival stages into a whirl of excitement. Many of the groups must get ready to fill a tall order-preparing ethnic cuisine for 100,000 guests. And that's not all. There are booths to design and costumes to make which reflect each group's culture and heritage. The result of these efforts is that by the time the Festival is ready to open, the grounds have been transformed into what looks like a deserted back lot at Universal Studios. But when the time comes for the Director to signal ·~ction!" a tidal wave of people, traditions, culture and heritage from all across Texas floods the scene with life and color. Staff, volunteers and participants alike-everyone works hard throughout the year to make the Festival a "hit:' And while it will never win an Academy Award, we think it's definitely in the running for the "people's choice" as one of the best bets in educational family entertainment in the state. Everybody is making marvelous new office machines. Manpower is training marvelous new temporaries to run them. And we're doing it the best way ... with handson, one-on-one operator/machine training.

I had four reasons to make up my canvas this way, each one much loved and very, very dear to my heart: the Texas countryside with its wide open spaces; the pearl of all Missions, San Jose; and above everything the Texas flag transformed in a sky more beautiful than ever. l said four reasons, and I have only mentioned three. Well, let's not forget that the U.S. flag has the same colors and its spirit is there. I know because I included it as a revered homage to the greatness of our Nation and our State. The 1984 Texas Folklife Festival Commemorative Poster is sold during the Festival in the Institute Store and at kiosks located throughout the grounds.
