The public schools in this area are noted for their performances. Then, there is nothing. This interest has to be held during allot the school years for those who are so in- clined and I'm sure you would find them in great number. Music, in any form, helps a person in their development. it is good therapy, helping to relieve tensions especially when performed on one's own ability and not relying on radio or records. Surely the Board could locate a capable person to teach this valuable subject, be it a glee club, a school band, an orchestra or even a small group. Many people have express- ed their concerns over this matter and would like to see something done. Where does one begin to try to change this situation?
