Yes, those were the ones. I have a small piece of the rubber still in my
clarinet case, more or less as a souvenir if those days. I've tried the
modern equivalents (some that are yellow inside) but they don't seem to fell
or hold onto the mouthpiece the same way.

Eddie Marx was in Philadelphia - played principal in the short lived
Philadelphia Chamber Symphony that Anshel Brusilow founded and conducted for
three or four seasons. I studied with him for a semester while Gigliotti cut
back his teaching schedule to take care of his (first) wife, who had
undergone some kind of life-threatening illness and surgery. I think he went
to Bowling Green when the Chamber Symphony folded.
