SEWARD PUBLIC SCHOOL YEAR END ACTIVITIES
MUSIC GLASSES CLOSE

All instrumental classes under the direction of MT. Claude Berg, Music Supervisor at the Seward Public School, closed May 6.
 During the past year class in- struction on orchestral and band instruments has been given at the Seward School. Interested pupils from the fourth grade through high school have had an opportunity to get started on the instrument of their choice without charge. It has been felt that such program is necessary in order to recruit new players for the school band and orches- tra. This year a shortage of ade- quately prepared trumpet play CTS made it impossible to con tinue the band that was started at the beginning of the year. We hope next year to have both an orchesra and uniformed band.
 The school owns number of musical instruments which have been used by pupils free of charge. Since each instrument is used by number of pupils, it is impossible to allow any in strument to be taken home for practice. Individual mouthpieces are assigned for reed instru- ments, and the metal mouth pieces of the brass instruments are kept in a germicidal solu- tion when not in use.
 It is hoped that pupils who get a start in the school music class es will continue with private lessons whenever it is possible. The purpose of free music in struction in the school is not to compete with private teachers, but rather awaken interest and promote candidates for individu- al instruction. Class instruction of the type we are able to give at Seward Public School can only give the pupil start. The rest is up to him. At present there is an urgent need for private music teacher who can give instruction on woodwind, brass and percussion instru- mentS.

unnecessary.
To speed the legislation fur

siderably.

The House committee is PLAN

ing its pay-fringe benefits meas

fringe. benefits bill. This also
would send the pay legislation
to House Senate conference.
Consequently there are two al
ternatives for expediting action
and one of them is certain to
be used.
There will pe Democratic
move in the Senate committee
to provide a 7 per cent raise for
classified and postal workers,
with a $240 minimum and a
$480 maximum. However. Chair
man Carlson will oppose this
on grounds the Republican lead
ership will balk at such legisla-
ton.

pletes work on its pay-fringe
benefits bill today. The group
yesterday decided to settle the.
repeal or modification of the

any more debate to the proviso
as part of its own pay-fringe
