Clem Hutchinson used to tell the story about a band director in San Jose
doing an elementary summer school band. It had a couple dozen clarinets, and
he was checking them 3 at a time. When he got to the bottom 3 of the thirds
one kids sound did not come out so the teacher took the horn from him and
sucked to clear the spit before playing.....got a mouthful of MAGGOTS!

-------------------------------------------

I don't believe it - what Director in the entire planet would suck on a
students mouthpiece to "clear the spit" from it?????? It would be more
believable if the story had the student doing the spit clearing and finding
the 'tasty' critters.
