JEAN HART'S
Approach
Urged in Public
"We used to have the 'cats'
on one side of the fence and the
'long-hairs' on the other . . . now
we're-trying to tear down that
fence and get each to appreciate
the other's kind of music." "With
these words E. E. Mohr, head
of the. Southwestern division of
the Music Educators National
conference,' sums up1 a new -atti
tude of educators toward greater
variety in music study.
The long-prevalent "good mu
sic approach to music in schools
is broadening to include all mus
sic as educators recognize differ
ent needs in different students.
. Ralph - Rush, ' former MENC
president, explains: "We're not
teaching for the embryo Heifetz
or Rubenstein alone anymore.
We want to make music part
of everyone's everyday life."
Trend Is National
Greater variety in school mu
sic programs is showing up all
across the country both in the
use of a wider variety of instru
ments and in a more liberal
view of types of music.
Three years ago educators
read with surprise that the Ingle
wood (Calif.) High School offers
both accordion and guitar study
for credit. Today, both these in-.
struments, ;and .the harmonica,
too; are considered "worthy" of
acceptance for . credit by many
educators.' -
' One music teacher points but:
"Much of the fine music of our
times such as spirituals, folk
songs, and songs that immigrat
ed to this country' with national
groups can. best be; played on
these simpler instruments. We
need to make all of these musi
cal forms, as well as the classical
instruments and music, available
for students choice." . " " f
Urges Popular Music - ' ;
. William H. Tallmadge, profes
sor at New York State College
for Teachers, Buffalo, proposes
more emphasis on jazz and popu
lar music in the schools.
He gives as his reasons: (
.1. A real understanding of
music .requires understanding of
the history and development of
music, much of which had its
beginnings in jazz and folk mu

A workshop has been set up in the Perkins',
home where the women will wash, sew and re
pair the dolls. The workers want dolls, lots
of them,1 and pointed out that arms, legs and
heads can be put on new bodies, and all man
ner of miracles worked with old dolls.

Schools
2. Study of "jazz" develops
keener discrimination of both
contemporary music and music
history.
All of the educators who advo
cate broader music programs
make it clear that this expan
sion should augment the accept
ed orchestra and band programs,
not replace them.
As Dr. John C. Kendel, vice
president of the American Music
Conference and past president
of MENC, explains: "There is
so much good music, in so many
forms, everyone ; should have
the opportunity, to select the
kind : that, brings the greatest
personal satisfaction to his life.
The purpose of music, after all,
is pleasure."

View residence at that time. .
We have lived in 20 different
states of the union and in Eu
rope," said Colonel Bartlett, and
decided during our first stay
here to return when I retired."
And. why -do so many couples
pick this part of Oregon for their
retirement years? The colonel
said he and his wife like the
climate, the countryside and the
people better than any other
place they had lived. The officer
pointed out that the October
just ending was an example of
the weather which brought
them back. . .
Too, the officer and his wife
wanted to live where they could
have a garden, and grow lots of
trees and shrubs a large num
ber of these were planted .when
they first .bought the property
and were cared for by the
tenants with very fine results,
according to Colonel Bartlett.
Colonel Bartlett was retired
last summer after 34 years of
commissioned service. This serv
ice began with his graduation
from the United States Military
academy. West Point, in 1920,
Since then he has served in the
Philippine islands, Japan, Korea
and twice in Europe as well as
having held many assignments
in the United States.
The officer's last assignment
was as ' commanding officer ' of
the Southeastern Area command
in Europe, with headquarters in
Garmisch, Germany. Located in
the beautiful Bavarian Alps sec
tor, this was the rest and recrea
tion spot for all of the armed
forces in Europe. Colonel Bart
lett states that with fishing,
swimming, boating, golf, tennis
and horse-back riding in sum
mer, and a ski and winter sports
resort of international' renown
in winter, the area provided a
wholesome, healthful resort for
men serving . in Europe. : The
colonel operated some 1 hotels
and guest houses and their at
tendant recreational facilities in
