AMC NOTES
Harrison Elliott, band director at
Inman High School, Inman, South
Carolina, wrote to AMC this month to
commend the posters made available
for dealers and educators. Elliott has
found an effective and novel way to
use the posters. He tacks them to the
inside of the band room door and
opens the door most of the time. Ac-
cording to Elliott, "The posters can be
seen from the corridor where passing
students are constantly reminded that
music is fun and that they can find
their own place in it. This procedure
has drawn members into my beginning
band group and into the songflute
band." AMC is continually filling re-
quests for posters and other literature.
January Workshops
Ed Borup and Ed Kalb, AMC field-
men, set up the workshops for teach-
ers in Oklahoma and Louisiana that
took place in the last week in January.
Borup worked with music dealers and
educators to plan the program in Ok-
lahoma City under the joint coopera-
tion of Oklahoma City University and
the Oklahoma City Music Teachers As-
sociation. Miss Anne Brittson. super-
visor of music for the Oklahoma City
public schools, also worked to outline
the workshop potential for school per-
sonnel. More than H00 teachers were
reached at the two-day workshop for
the Sisters of Orleans Parish in New
Orleans January 30 and 31. The Cath-
olic Music Educators National Confer-
ence set up the elementary music pro-
gram.
Relax With Music
Music as a means of easing tensions
was predominant in December public-
ity used by newspapers across the
country. Most of the stories were
prompted by the AMC story placed
with International News Service, which
was sent to all INS subscribers. It
dealt with the personal satisfaction of
music and its value as a hobby for re-
laxation.
Look to Music
Music has always been a popular
theme for local newspapers, but in the
last few months more and more of
them have been featuring community
and school music in a big way. Four
outstanding clippings were received
Press said, "Music Plays Prominent
Role in Escahaba Schools;" headline
on the Bethlehem. Pa., Globe-Times
music page was, "Students Develop
Self Expression in Music Programs."
The Sioux City, la., Journal headed its
full page article with, "Music Gets
Nearer Top on School Hit Parade.'

ticle and pictures under the head.

sters Find Music Is Fun in School.*'
