Mark Twain’s Hannibal
A GENEROUSLY SIZED STORY

Pure Americana: This song cycle about burning
rubber, high heels and adrenaline took fuzzedout Texas blues guitar and lashed it around rollicking boogie. ZZ Top’s megaplatinum album
also had a high-gloss Eighties sheen and singles
like “Sharp Dressed Man” that would help it
sell some 10 million copies.

Lesson Overview

■ (Grades 9-10) Using both primary
source documents and print materials, students analyze
life around Hannibal, Missouri, during the latter half of
the 19th century to determine what effects this location
had on the writings of Mark Twain. Part of this lesson
includes sheet music analysis.
Lesson Objective ■ The curriculum context will be within
a Lesson on Mark Twain’s The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn. Segments of this lesson might also be integrated
into a study of Twain’s The Adventures of Tom Sawyer.
Students will 1. understand primary resources
2. critically evaluate information sources for reliability,
accuracy, perspective, relevancy and authoritativeness
3. understand the impact Mark Twain’s environment had
on his writings. ■ www.loc.gov/teachers

SCHOOL BAND DOES A

‘MAJOR’ RAZZBERRY
■ SWChronicle EDU© The Gazette ■ City Backyard Beats!

ORIGINAL STORY EL PASO 1932

Austin High School’s band was being reorganized

today after Principal H.B. Fort ordered it disbanded
because of a trombone “razzberry” chorus played by
some of its members. L. A. Kirchner, bandmaster
at Austin High school, said the incident that led to
the disbandment occurred as the band assembled on
Montana St. just before the parade. He said some of
the boys, were laughing, “cutting-up,” and producing discordant sounds on their instruments, when
Maj. Moore hurried up and ordered them to quiet
down. The hush that followed as he walked away
was broken by the unmistakable blare that only a
trombone can produce, when expertly manipulated.
Students with 15 demerits will be band-dismissed.
