The study comments that
such slight lowering Of re-

lowed in low density areas.
The study also found that
some communities have
found themselves disappoint-
ed in expecting that larger
lots and lower density would
curtail future expenditures
for schools and other services.
While there was a reduc-

Nobody paid too much atten-
ton to 1t for it had become a
regular Wednesday occurrence at
Walter Johnson High School. The
music was coming from one of
the schools most popular and
fast growing clubs, the Jazz Club.
The Jazz Club, actually named
The History of American Music
Club, has become so popular since
it was started last year, that there
are now 20 members. The clubs
mentor is William Schroeder, 81
year-old head of the social studies
department.
Schroeder got the idea of
forming music club when
he taught school at Marshall,
Va. II had to develop all sorts
of hobbies to keep from going
insane down there in the cOun-
try" said Schroeder, a native
of Chicago.
He started out by forming a
dummy band. 1--WE had the kids
sit on the stage with their in
struments and pretend they were
playing. But underneath the stage
we had a slick hi-fi set that put
out the music. We made a big
hit and were even invited to do
our act around the county" he
remembered.
At Walter Johnson, how
ever, Schroeder has encOur-
aged club members to take an
interest I'm the history of
American music.
The forerunner of jazz, he tells
them, came when somebody took
melody lines from Stephen Eos.
ter, added them to a blues beat
and pushed them through a horn.
Most of the time students hear
excerpts from Schroeder's col
lection of 400 albums. Students
work up a project on, say rag
time, and illustrate a talk with
records. Enough of the members
are talented, musically, to put on
a show of their own, Schroeder
feels.
One of the biggest hits so far
this year was a record cut by
Leonard Bernstein, symphony di.
rector and composer. Bernstein
talks about the formation of Jazz
and then lays down few mean
bars of music, backed up with a

To share with one and all.
My country's a land of beauty

"YOu could have heard

He is considering exposing" his
club members to tape on Ameri-
can music that he's been working
on for two years. He says he's up
to 1910 now-"the time when jazz
really gets compficated'- he's
not sure whether students can
stand listening to his voice so
long.
The Club has one definite rule:
No Rock n Roll. Schroeder has
told the club members that rock
n roll really isn't jazz. For one
thing, he said, that form of music
lacks a number of instruments
basic to jaZz-clarinet, any of the
brasses and often, the soprano
sax.
Some club members belong to
rock n roll bands, but they only
play the music because that's
what people want to hear right
now" according to Schroeder.
Also, a number of them be.
long to the school band. "We
had some of them come in

volume was just too much.

were just graduating from high school knew about
the Takoma Park school or its advantages in the
past. According to Chacos most of the players
at Montgomery in the past have been returning
servcemen and the school wasn't given much
thought by local athletes who did not receive
scholarships. MIC doesn't give scholarships but
Chacos feels that the school offers athletes the
opportunity of getting two years of college game
experience when they most likely would just be
practice dummies and bench stters for those years
at senior college
Here boys have chance to get a good edu-
