Music There is more to teaching music than one usually realizes. When one hears the music groups, he can never imagine all of the off ' key singing or playing that took place in the classroom. Teachers try to teach more than just sing- ing or playing of an instrument. They try to convey the skills that are necessary for superior standards of performance, and they try to instill an appreciation of good music. This year there were three music teachers : Jerry Einarsson, Russell Reed, and Dan Border, a newcomer to the department. WHERE ARE MY BASSES?
